vGolf Version History
---------------------

1.2:

Fixed bug in course editor which made the scores report incorrectly when
viewing the leaderboards. If you have made any courses you will need to update
them by opening them in the editor, selecting "Set Par" on any hole, and saving
them.

Course editor now displays the dimensions of the current image on the status bar
in Images mode.

Fixed victory screen display not showing anything when there are ties among the
top players. Now multiple players can be awarded gold or silver if there are
ties.

Made a few minor changes to the victory screen.

Fixed some shortcuts in Course Editor.

Fixed player profiles. Some profile data was being saved incorrectly. The new
loading routine attempts to filter out incorrectly saved data. If the stats for
your profile appear incorrect after loading in this version you will need to
delete your profile and create a new one.

Free up resources used by the game at exit. This makes the game more compatible
with older operating systems such as Windows 98.


1.12:

now displayed with your new scores highlighted when the game is finished.

Fixed bug which could cause profiles to be corrupted on first run.

Fixed a bug which caused certain menus to display with incorrect colors after
playing a game.

Changed default color depth to match the current desktop color depth. This
increases compatibility with newer versions of Windows which don't have proper
support for 8-bit graphics modes. You can still access the 8-bit mode from the
video options if your OS supports it and you need a speed boost.

Added online leaderboards. Now you can compete with other players worldwide. You
can turn this option off in the "Online" options menu.

Improved UI slightly. Non-clickable menu items no longer respond to the mouse.

on the next hole.

Added ability to connect POLY_MOTION_AREA objects to POLY_MOVE* and POLY_DOOR*
objects in the course editor. The POLY_MOTION_AREA will not work correctly
without this connection.
