15:31 Revision d165ed82 (github): Changed: Do not set the texture wrap properties of the currently bound texture in drawConsoleBackground we have no idea which texture (if any) is. Console background drawing should be redesigned to happen entirely game-side if it needs this flexibility or simply allow the game to specify a Material and let the engine handle drawing.

danij

11:15 Revision bec707b5 (github): Added UWF_OVERRIDE_ALPHA flag for use with UI_DrawWidgets: rather than multiply the specified alpha with the per-widget alpha multiplier; ignore the per-widget multiplier and use the value specified as the absolute alpha for both textAlpha and iconAlpha. Restores correct behavior when using the statusbar-span view.

17:04 Revision 66f5a337 (github): Added All games: Fullscreen HUD "wide offset" scaling. When using ultra wide/tall window dimensions the fullscreen head-up displays would be positioned at the very edge of the window (often into the user's peripheral vision range). Wide-offset allows the user to specify how far these displays will be offset from their position at the original 4:3 aspect ratio. New menu item in HUD options. New cvar "hud-wideoffset".

12:15 Revision 11780803 (github): Changed All games: New approach to drawing the statusbar which aims to preserve the original aspect ratio. If the window dimension aspect ratio is equal or near to the original ratio, the statusbar will be stretched to fill the available width. If not, the statusbar will be centralized and scaled to fit while maintaining the original aspect ratio. This means that by default anything between 4:3 and 16:10 will be stretched while anything else will be scaled to fit. This behavior can be overridden with the new cvar "rend-hud-nostretch".
