ChangeLog Version 2023.0 (development)

The development version Infinite Realms 2023.0 introduces exciting new features, including a Scenario Manager window for easy scene management and a mandatory 2D “Home Scene” that serves as an adventure landing page. The program now supports the imperial system as default, with an option to switch back to metric. The Sound Stage clip loading system has been significantly improved, and the scene loading system has been revamped to be event-based. These updates, along with many other enhancements and bug fixes, make for a more seamless and enjoyable user experience.
