- Warm Winter Wishes - 21 December 2025
New major update 2.6.8.0 released with many improvements, including new TAA (temporal anti-aliasing) options. Here is a brief list of the most important improvements and additions.Engine Improvements Added two new Temporal Anti-Aliasing options. One is more conservative with only two temporal samples, while the other gives a smoother picture, at the cost of making the picture more blurry. Both options are good tradeoffs for quality vs. performance considerations, and are highly recommended to be tried out, especially for VR.Track Improvements Improved Vekoma Minetrain track with additional C-beam and improved friction tires and motors. Added modern spine types to Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter and Infinity styles. A few other slightly improved coaster style tracks.Terrain Added Terrain Import and Export (Pro Version only). Terrain can be exported as a 3D object, including tunnel cut outs. Impr…

- Update 2.6.5.4 released - 22 August 2024
Maintenance Update 2.6.5.4 with many improvements released... This update addresses many track hardware (brakes and transport devices) related issues. The device placement code was completely overhauled to make it less likely that brakes and transports intersect with cross ties or segment borders. All coaster styles were examined and placement rules were fine tuned for each. Some track styles with specific support rail connectors will now not intersect with cross ties any more. Furthermore, most older friction tire objects got updated by higher quality models or received higher detail. Some track styles also received better magnetic brake models. The editor got improved with a couple of usefull new features and fixes. First of all, there is now an 'Add on Plane' option for scenery objects, which will automatically rotate and place new objects based on the detected plane under the mouse…
