Black Dragon Viewer 64x - Update 5.0.2 Beta "Probing Dragon"

Merry Christmas Everyone!

This one's a really small update, i got sick (Covid) over the course of this month which almost threw a wrench into this update. Nevertheless here's an update to adress some critical issues.

Most importantly textures for some people shouldn't stay gray anymore because they for some reason disabled HTTP Textures (probably accidentally through the menu), but also the HDR options in the sky editor are now there and the texture scale spinners in the tools window will no longer reset and break. Shadow resolutions should now also work fine again (wohoo).

(Possibly no update video) *sad face*

Black Dragon Viewer 64x - Update 5.0.1 Beta "Probing Dragon"

Quick update fixing some of the most pressing issues reported with 5.0.

I highly recommend you update to this one asap.

Noteworthy changes: Lots of extra options for sky auto adjustment, fixes for getting stuck on loading screen, next/prev item buttons not working, land edit not working, HQ DoF making a first return. I sadly couldn't yet fully finish the front blur toggle, while it is implemented it does not properly refresh the shader yet it seems, it was more important getting this pushed out as more and more people were failing on login inventory creation...

Black Dragon Viewer 64x - Update 5.0 Beta "Probing Dragon"

6 long months has it been and its finally here! The PBR (beta) update!

Thanks to everyone who has been testing this as we went from a barely working alpha to a stable beta that runs decently well enough to release it to the public.

I'm also sorry that it took so much longer than the planned 28th November for this, video editing is hard especially if you are trying something new but here it is, i hope it was worth it and you are having a laugh at least.

Noteworthy changes since 4.3.2 are the new first person aiming system, the Pose Creator animation corruption fixed, a first revamp to the tools window, fixes to animated linksets breaking apart while moving in mouselook, a revamped login progress screen that should hopefully eliminate a lot of cases of getting stuck on inventory creation and MOST IMPORTANTLY: A fix for a right-click crash with pie menus, it MIGHT just be THAT crash, FINALLY after 10 years i caught it.

Sadly going forward i might stop featuring images from BD users as Discord made another stupid change that makes image links "run out" after a while. So unless i reupload them on blogspot or take them from somewhere else (or Discord reverts this stupid decision) i'll most likely not feature images anymore. BIG SAD.

I think it goes without saying that this is a massive major update and you should absolutely clean your cache and do a clean install (you shouldn't need to delete settings, just the Viewer folder and Cache) this will prevent a potential startup crash if you install it over the old versions.
