New, cleaner, simpler and easier to maintain/develop User Interface using material design (same as your android phone):

Other big changes:

we finally switched from 32Bits to 64Bits, your computer will choose the correct version automatically.
~19.5% faster physics core thanks to 64 bit optimization
New vehicles: Gavril Roamer and Ibishu 200BX

Features:

New UI (WIP) – Press ‘Escape’ key to toggle
Added torqueArm feature for correct reaction torque on cars’ axles
Improved the performance of the physics core. x64 is ~19.5% faster now than the previous version x86 physics core
Improved 64-bit support
Improved pressure simulation (increases tire stability)
Optimizations of pressure simulation
Optimized the wheel simulation
Small optimizations of the collision subsystem
Changed physics realtime limit to be at 20 FPS
Added feedback app – Use for bug reporting only
Added ‘center of gravity’ debug
Added ‘breakgroup’ debug
Material editor supports Reflectivity Maps
A notice will be shown if integrated video card gets used
Added color gradient to ScatterSky in the mission file
Added fixed nodes support
SideReinfBeam option added to pressureWheel model
Vehicle recovery system improvements . Press ‘Insert’ to use it
Updating densities on every gfx frame for objects that are in water
Added wheelSideReinfBeam (optional) and split up hub beam options (hubSide, hubTread, hubPeriphery) also optional
Renamed decalroad difficulty property to drivability
Added getTerrainDrivability
Added floating point number filtering of the physics engine to increase the stability of T3D
Improved AI basic route planning
Added AI route positions optimization
Added AI 3 point turns
Added AI bump planning
Added AI jump planning (WIP)
Tuned vehicle tires
Create hooks that T3D can call when input changes
Show raw hardware controllers information

Bugfixes:

Fixed duplicate beam/missing beam for the Grand Marshal lightbar
Tweaked grand marshal ride height
Fixed tiretester load problem.
Add fallback for missing GlobalCubemap on levels – There is no need to manually add GlobalCubemap to a level to use static reflections
Fixed infinite level loading when in fullscreen mode
Fixed Fanatec pedals being unbindable
Fixed differential mode toggle lua function
Fixed welded/lsd differentials causing wheel instability
Fixed combined throttle and brake causing wheel instability
Fixed wheel torque reaction
Fixed incorrect engine torque reaction
Fixed negative gravity in sand/mud simulation
Fixed Sunburst front lug nuts clipping through steel wheels
Fixed vehicle not functioning without flexbodies section
Fixed uneven force feedback at steering limits for all cars
Fixed spurious crash sounds
Fixed vehicle camera with mouse + rclick
Fixed debug persistency breaking with module init
Removed logline deduplication problem
Fixed retaining of debug mode
Improved nodeweight debug
Fix invalid TerrainBlock ray cast, froze game at level load.
Window title changes: now includes version and architecture
Shape now using a normalized 1900×1080 resolution for calculation: improves chosen LOD model
Make collada update of material.cs files optional.
Removed dangerous code(infinite bucle) from Precipitation::wrapDrop
Fix shader leak on shutdown
Reduce recursive call in Win32Window::setVideoMode
Fixed light flares on lowest texture quality: working now
Fix missing vehicle shadows on lowest lighting.
Split Material’s simulated and real time: police lightbar animation now slows down with slowmotion
T3D Lua crash fixes on receiving evenings from multiple threads
fixed Virtual filesystem destruction CTD on certain CEF file usage
Disabled optimization on Octree code, some times dont work correctly: more stable now
launcher should now kill of stray .ui processes when main process died
added ability to show and hide the cef console dynamically: ALT+C
Add support for Material’s reflectivity maps.
Fix leak due to missing virtual dtor
Render Forest objects when we use ScatterSky.lastSplitTerrainOnly
Fix Decals normals: lighting on decals should be correct now
Remove support for MNG: was not used, but still crashing
disabled security relevant functions to improve the T3D sandbox
Add color gradient files to ScatterSky
Recicle DecalManager buffers every N frames for avoid the buffer lock problem.
fixing CTD on canvas render invocation
removed strange tab replacement in console, also added time to console log struct improved look and format
improved error logging on fatal lua errors
minor things, added lua startup script and file: -lua -luafile
fixed CTD on T3D Lua reload, reloads are properly queued now
Change SimXMLDocument for use virtual FS: used by editors settings.xml
Add SimObject::inspectPostApply to Lua interface.
Add debug log for a problem with SpotLight not updated correcty on scene octree.
Avoid LightBase field set/read from dummy variable.
Implement setVehiclePosition for recovery system
Extend drawSquarePrism interface
renamed difficulty to drivabilityon decalroads
Add debug logs for try get more information about a frequent crash
Safe code for CubeReflector::updateReflection
Save console position
Fix sort video modes for GFXPCD3D9Device::enumerateVideoModes.
Enable SFXNullProvider as fallback when principal sfx provider fails to init,
Fixed CTD: Check against NULL ptr in Win32Window::WindowProc
Fix crash at startup when some input devices are connected.
Reduce min window size
Add check for detect when GPU drivers try to overide DX9 AA setting: fixes transparent vehicles for AMD GPU users
Add safe code for avoid crashes when we call Platform::Altert during render.
Fixed serious drivetrain differential bug
improved physics core stability
