Daniel Gallacher of SimToolkitPro has today posted the changelog for version 0.6. The update has not yet been released, though he expects it to be available to testers in about a week.
Posted to various platforms including Facebook, Gallacher opened the changelog with a plan of how the update is expected to be rolled out.
“So its been a while since i’ve managed to stream or post any real update so heres a fairly sizeable one. The confirmed feature list for 0.6. Im hoping to start limited testing of the update late next week with a view to have it out as soon as I can in a stable state to everyone. This may not even be an exhaustive list!”
With that, he then posted the lengthy changelog. Highlights include a new data storage system, Mac and Linux clients, 40% reduction in RAM, and a streaming overlay designer.
