	- Unlike stock Hammer, Hammer++ ignores map version checking and will always allow a map to be edited 
- Added "Import" button to Expert Compile window, allows importing commands from a .cfg
- Added "Remove bad collision faces" to Propper (on by default), removes thin/tiny collision faces
	- This fixes complex brushwork sometimes creating a shrinkwrapped collision model

- Removed "Autosaving..." popup
	- Fixes input being stolen while flying around with the camera
- Autosaving will no longer occur when the 3D camera is moving
- Limited thumbnails in texture browser to max 16:1 aspect ratio
	- This allows disproportional textures like 2048x32 to still be recognizable

- Fixed invalid textures not being fixed in Check for Problems dialog
- Fixed wrong thumbnail size for skybox textures in texture browser
- Fixed HDR-only skyboxes not being previewed in texture browser
- Fixed corrupted texture thumbnail appearing when selecting a missing material
- Fixed grid rendering precision, particularly at sub-unit scale
	- Therefore added back support for non-power of 2 microgrid support, limited to minimum 0.1 scale
- Fixed wrong texture size for _rt_camera in TF2, now matches ingame
- Fixed Hammer++ freezing on load if an FGD had an incorrectly closed quote containing an operator
	- This is also an issue in stock Hammer
- Fixed a crash if an invalid last texture name was saved in the texture list
- Fixed normal camera moving while under the influence of Jumpman


- KNOWN BUGS:
	- Copying entities from a VMF that is closed might crash
	  Workaround: Don't close the VMF until you have finished pasting
	

Build 8866 (May 19th 2024)

- Added native Propper tool
	- Converts selected brushes/displacements to a model automatically
	- Works on all games and serves as a replacement for the old standalone Propper tool
	- Access it from Tools -> Propper or Ctrl + Shift + P
	- Brushes tied to an entity or grouped together will be converted into a single mesh
	- Unlike the old Propper, this converts the Hammer mesh directly so there is no destructive loss from the BSP process
	- The tool is a two-step process: Build and Compile
	- If you want to add extra model properties like prop_data, Build it first, edit the generated QC and then Compile
	- Note: the studiomdl.exe path won't be automatically configured unless you are on a fresh install
	- Make sure to configure the MDL program in Tools -> Options -> Build Programs first
- Added support for HDR lighting preview (on by default)
	- Improved lighting quality in dark interiors
	- Includes post-processing preview: change tonemap, bloom, color correction and vignette settings
	- Left 4 Dead 2: This fixes lighting preview brightness being very inaccurate in dark areas, as the game uses up to x8 tonemap scaling by default!
	- Left 4 Dead 2: 2D skybox preview will now show HDR skyboxes correctly
	- Moved Map -> Set Color Correction to lighting preview's options
	- When a map is loaded for the first time, bloom/tonemap settings are copied from the first found env_tonemap_controller 
	- If there is multiple env_tonemap_controllers, the one with "global" in the name is favored first
	- LDR mode can be re-enabled in Tools -> Options -> Hammer++ (not recommended)
- Upgraded texture browser to display WorldVertexTransition blends automatically
	- %tooltexture is now ignored on WorldVertexTransition materials for this reason

- Loading a pointfile will now center camera on the exit point 
- Pointfiles will now select the (brush) entity responsible for the leak when loaded
- Increased pointfile color saturation
- Added slider for Near Clipping Plane in Options -> 3D views
	- Increasing this allows reducing z-fighting when observing very large maps
- Added exception address to crash message
- Updated model ambient sampling in lighting preview
	- Now samples nearby lightmaps, this should make them look better inside (dark) interiors
- Changed I/O delimiter in Garry's Mod to use ESC rather than commas by default
	- Should fix issues with instance I/O
- Raised compile parameter length limit from 260 to 8192 (maximum length allowed by Windows)
- Increased max back clipping plane, model render distance and detail render distance from 32768 to 99999

- Added shader fix for WorldVertexTransition blend modulate textures for SDK2013
- Added shader fix for Sprites rendering through walls on Garry's Mod and SDK2013
- Added toggleable support for 4 way displacement blends (default is off)
	- To enable, open hammerplusplus_settings.ini and change Enable4WayBlends under [General] to true
	- The Blend button under Sculpt will now be enabled, and the extra information will be read and saved in VMFs
	- NOTE: The game itself must support this feature for it to work! 
	  The blends will not show up in Hammer++ unless shader support is present
	  If shaders are implemented to show 4WayBlends under Garry's Mod, this will serve as support for Black Mesa
- VMFs can be drag and dropped (like Garry's Mod Hammer)

- !nick, !rochelle, !ellis, !coach, !bill, !zoey, !louis and !francis targetnames are recognized as valid targetnames
- Fixed detail sprites materials breaking after modifying a displacement
- Fixed lighting preview only creating displacement shadows from the backside
	- Now matches VRAD behavior, both sides will block shadows
	- Prop lighting preview may look downgraded due to this change, particularly with rocks inside displacements
	  This can be workarounded by setting prop lighting origins to a better info_lighting place
	  Lighting origins won't affect VRAD because it uses per-vertex lighting
- Fixed quick texture list dropdown going up by default, it will now try go down whenever possible
- Fixed textures longer than 128 characters being truncated in texture browser
- Fixed broken color picker layout

- CSGO: Fixed crash when loading Portal 2/L4D2 particles
	

Build 8863 (October 31st 2022)

- Added convex + hole checker for brushes. This will catch invalid brushes that Hammer wouldn't pick up as invalid before, but could have caused VBSP to die (such as with the infamous "BSP unbounded" error)
	- Note: some maps may get reported as having invalid solids when they previously wouldn't. If these are inspected closely, very tiny edges or holes  can be discovered. A simple fix is to select all vertices and snap them to grid to make it valid again, or remake the brush.
- Added textured sprite icons in 2D view. On by default, this can be toggled off in options
- Added trajectory visualizer for trigger_catapult
- Added angles visualizer for env_blood, env_physimpact, env_entity_maker, func_movelinear, func_button, func_door, func_conveyor, info_projecteddecal, phys_thruster, shadow_control, trigger_apply_impulse, trigger_push, trigger_wind
- CSGO: Added vgui_world_text_panel preview
- Added option to change number of digits for texture precision, default is 4

- Fixed wrong working directory for the compiler window when executing thirdparty files
	- As a result, the full filename workaround is no longer needed for tools such as Propper. Simply typing in 'propper' will now work
- Fixed brushes with less than 4 faces not being reported as invalid
- Fixed crash when vertex manipulating displacements and editing them afterwards
- Fixed crash when box selecting with vertex manipulation, pressing enter and then holding left click

Build 8851: Major update (January 21st 2022)

- Added Lighting Preview
	- Simulate Source's iconic lighting right inside the editor
	- High accuracy and reasonably fast when compared to VRAD
	- Efficiently multithreaded, the more threads your CPU has the faster it will be
	- Dynamic, fast updating of point lights and spotlights is supported
	- Bakes can be done globally (full bake) or only in a certain radius
	- Options configurable include:
		- Dynamic Updating: Toggle automatically updating when changing a point light or spotlight
		- Update Delay: The delay in seconds before updating automatically
		- Texlight Filename: Custom .rads file used for texture lights. The lights.rad and .rad file is loaded automatically
		- Sun Samples: The quality of sunlight, higher is better but slower
		- Ambient Samples: The quality of ambient environmental lighting, higher is better but MUCH slower
		- Visibility Samples: The quality of visibility testing for lights, higher is more accurate but much slower
		- Light Radius Scale: Multiplier for how far a light can "see". Lowering this can make bakes faster but less accurate
		- Light Brightness Scale: Multiplier of brightness for all lights
		- Ambient Occlusion Scale: If non-zero, ambient occlusion will be baked. This is expensive, so it's off by default!
		- Bounced Light: Bounces light so areas that a light can't see will still receive light. Only re-baked on full bakes
		- Light Bleed Hack: Attempts to fix light bleeding through walls due to the nature of Hammer geometry
		- Cubemap: Toggle rendering of the cubemap, as it can be distracting in certain situations
	- Current limitations:
		- Dynamic updating of geometry doesn't exist yet, use radius bake for now
