• General: Version has been changed to 4.18

• General: Fixed the problem appeared in 4.17 when executables weren't recognized by Windows XP.

• General: Added "Ask confirmation when saving changes by 'Ctrl+S'." option to the Setup->Settings. Default is 'TRUE'.

• General: Introduced the delayed load for 'FreeImage.dll'. It means that the dll is not required to run the Editor. For editing W8 though you would still need the 'FreeImage.dll' if you want to use certain image-managing features of the Editor.

• General: Introduced the delayed load for 'd3d9.dll'. It means that the DirectX 9 is not required to be installed to run the Editor. For editing W8 though you would still need the DirectX 9 to be installed if you want to view/manipulate the 3D content while using the DirectX 9 rendering pipeline.

• General: Introduced the delayed load for 'd3dx9_43.dll'. It means that the DirectX 9 re-distributables are not required to be installed to run the Editor. For editing W8 though you would still need the re-distributables to be installed if you want to view/manipulate the 3D content. Note that the Editor would likely to crash if the re-distributables are not installed but is tried to be used (only a concern when editing W8).

• General: Introduced the delayed load for 'OpenGL32.dll'. It means that the OpenGL32.dll is not required to be on your computer to run the Editor. For editing W8 though you would still need the OpenGL32.dll to be present on your computer if you want to view/manipulate the 3D content while using the OpenGL rendering pipeline. Note that the Editor would likely to crash if the OpenGL32.dll is not present but is tried to be used (only a concern when editing W8).

• General: Introduced the delayed load for 'glu32.dll'. It means that the glu32.dll is not required to be on your computer to run the Editor. For editing W8 though you would still need the glu32.dll to be present on your computer if you want to view/manipulate the 3D content while using the OpenGL rendering pipeline. Note that the Editor would likely to crash if the glu32.dll is not present but is tried to be used (only a concern when editing W8).

• W7: Save File World Viewer: Introducing Auto-map which acts like in-game Journey Map Kit. If the Party does not have an item that can be used as a Map Kit the Auto-map is not displayed. The highest 'Mapping' skill in the Party is used. Extra info (which is not displayed in-game) is shown when 'Mapping' skill is very high (90+ and 100). Auto-map is disabled for W6 because W6 does not have auto-map concept and does not store the information about visited cells and does not have 'Mapping' skill. 'View Party on the Map' functionality is still available for W6.

• W7: Map Editor: Sorted out some Display Feature confusion. 'Burned Eggs' display feature is now fully available. 'Hole' feature is fully available. 'Pushed Secret Button' feature does not exist.

• W8: Agent: Fixed the problem appeared in 4.17 where CFAgent was crashing the Game.

• W8: NPC Editor: Script Command '24' is actually 'PC Quote' Command as it was discovered by Wingard.

18, July, 2014

• General: Visual Studio 2012 is now used for building the Editor binaries. Some new bugs might creep in because of this and dependence on different DirectX binaries is introduced.

• General: DirectX 9 re-distributables from June 2010 are now required. If you have the latest DirectX installed on your computer you probably don't have to do anything. If you have an 'd3dx9_43.dll'-related error while trying to launch the Editor then: 1. go to Microsoft site and find 'DirectX end-user runtime June 2010'. 2. Download the executable and run it. 3. It will unpack files to a temporary folder you specify (create C:\dxtemp, for instance). 4. Go to this temporary folder and run dxsetup.exe. 5. Delete the temporary folder when finished.

• W7 Gold: Added support for different W7Gold executable names (such as when you use GOG version).
