You can now download LDView v0.9.1 (both source and binaries) from:

http://home.san.rr.com/tcobbs/LDView/
OR
http://www.csc.calpoly.edu/~tcobbs/LDView/
(This second site has been pretty slow lately, so you probably want to try
the other one first.)

I wasn't originally going to have another release before v1.0, but there
were enough changes that I felt another pre-1.0 release was required.

This release has a number of new features and bug fixes, and you can see the
complete list in the History.txt file in the release or by looking at the
Change History web page at either of the sites listed above.  The highlights
are:

* File polling, to allow your model to be auto-updated when you modify and
save it in another program such as MLCad.

* Cut-away feature that lets you cut away near parts of the model to look
inside

* Readme.txt file converted to HTML, and added to the Help menu.

In addition to the new features, v0.9.1 should contain fixes for all the
bugs reported to me to date, with the exception of fullscreen mode not
working on Voodoo1/2 cards (although I did hopefully fix the crash).  If you
encounter any bugs, please report them to me, as I would like to have as few
bugs as possible in v1.0.  Please direct these bug reports to the
lugnet.cad.dev group only, or send me e-mail.  Hopefully, this will be the
last release before I release v1.0.  (I know, I said that last time.)

As always, let me know if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions.
It's unlikely that any feature suggestions will make it into v1.0, but
that's what I said when I released v0.9, and look where it left me ;-).  I
value your suggestions greatly, though; many of the features in LDView
currently are the result of suggestions by users.

Fantastic piece of software. I love to sit and watch a model spinning round and round. I'm stunned! /Tore (...) -- Tore Eriksson Sweden ICQ: 76066510 LEGO: MOC++++ FS,SP,TO++ TC+ LS YB@m (24 years ago, 9-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

It has been brought to my attention that v0.9.1 is incompatible with Win95. This is due to a screwup on my part in using a function call that didn't exist in Windows 95. I have zipped up a replacement .exe file which fixes the problem (by using (...) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
