11• engine now picks up assets wad (normally COD.WAD) from engine EXE directory, then from current directory if it was unavailable
12• engine now picks up levels wad (CODLEV.WAD) from engine EXE directory
13• non-printable chars are now properly filtered out from savegames names and other text input fields in the menu
14• starting the game from the first new level in pwad works differently now for Doom 1:
15- episode selection menu is shown always for Doom 1
16- there's a menu item on episode selection screen called Load Wad selecting which starts the game at first changed level
17- in case vanilla Doom 1 is loaded (i.e. no new levels in pwads) this item takes player to e1m1
18- for Doom 2 (aka commercial) there's no episode selection screen (i.e. same behavior as before)

22• platform specific system startup routines replaced with those from MBF 2.0.4
23                    below are details of what has been changed as a result
24• graphical startup gone as a result although option for that remains in the menu
25• tick to real time scale adjustment is still supported, but is not dynamic and required engine restart to be picked up
26• video optimized assembly code replaced with that from MBF 2.0.4
27• platform specific video mode and blitting code replaced with that from MBF 2.0.4
28• VESA relared functions from MBF 2.0.4 have been incorporated
29• video mode selection is gone, replaced with 3 options for controlling rendering and menus updated for that
30- hi resolution mode
31- page flipping enabled
32- vertical trace is used
33• benchmark option removed from menu as baselines for videomodes are gone with the modes (it did not seem to work anyway)
34• incidentally platform specific keyboard and joystick code also replaced with one from MBF 2.0.4
35• audio-device specific platform code and MUS to MIDI converter code replaced with those from MBF 2.0.4
36• platform specific audio code interfacing Allegro lib replaced with that from MBF 2.0.4
37• because of how sound setup works there, it is now longer possible to choose MIDI and digi card from the menu and control voice detection; instead setup.exe from MBF 2.0.4 package should be used, which creates setup.cfg that Allegro uses
38• sound effects pre-caching at startup is no longer optional and happens always, so option to control it is gone from the menu
39• connectivity related code has also been incorporated, however I have not really tested anything multiplayer
40                                                     in addition to this

42• "modern" MBF-style video mode and FPS counter overlay added (can't say I trust it very much though)
43• in cases when engine believes that assets wad is called the same way as IWAD it detects (e.g. both called DOOM2.WAD) it will now be loaded only once
44• restored graphical startup
45• removed option to show disk in the menu as it's not something supported after MBF video code moved in
46• engine will now persist smooth mouse turning option
47• experimental changes to horizontal turning with mouse
