CM 10.30
* Reactivated a simplified HUD crosshair in non-ironsighted weapons mode, so all the John Rambos can wipe out the city with hip-shots again.
* Fixed HUD elements in EP1 and EP2
* Fixed Detailsprites in EP2
* Many, many, many fixes and improvements on hl2/ep1/ep2 maps
* Most maps recompiled with high precision lightmaps in certain areas
* Added V90 HD Alyx (Lima) - ATTENTION: One model variation is semi-half-nude
* Several reworked HD civilian, some new faces
* Small improvements in the ironsight code
* Changed eyes on human characters to a vortigaunt eyes shader-derivate for much more realistic eyes (Thanks to Kyle Bloss for the initial tip. It took me 3 years to pick up this, sorry Kyle)
* First step to fix an old VALVE humans animation bug (instant flipping instead of normal turn-animation on 45 and 90 degree rotations)
* Disabled gamma settings in autoexec, because the game was too dark for most users.
CM 10.20
* (Non public test release)
CM 10.10
* Added V70 HD models with advanced jigglebones. Reapply the models with Character Pimper, if you want to use them.
* Added the complete HL2 buggy-coast sequence at nighttime. This is fixing the time leap from Ravenholm to Coast. If you want the old-style daytime coast levels, just copy the map files from 'daytime' (inside HL2 maps folder), but i strongly recommend to give the new night levels a try.
* Added Buggy headlights and increased flashlight (mainly because of the new night time coast levels) + Numerous improvements in several maps (HL2 / EP1 / EP2)
* Added Ironsight (bind the ironsight key with the ingame options)
* Added optional hightech-style HD-Combines (available with the character pimper)
* Added several CVARS for console-tweaking the new features:
o 'FF_vehicle_flashlightfov_h' = '120' ( def. '120.0' ) - Horizontal headlight cone for buggy. Default: 120
o 'FF_vehicle_flashlightfov_v' = '60' ( def. '60.0' ) - Vertical headlight cone for buggy. Default: 60
o 'FF_vehicle_dynamicflashlight' = '0' ( def. '1' ) - Enables dynamic shadows with buggy headlight. (1 = On / 0 = Off) Default: Off, because of shadow cut errors
o r_flashlightfar '1000' - Maximum length for player flashlight
o r_flashlightfov '65' - players flashlight cone field of view
o r_headlightfar '3000' - Maximum length for buggy headlight
o 'ff_ironsight_hide_quickinfo' = '1' - Disables the quickinfo HUD element. Crosshair alpha was be set to zero in hudlayout.res
o 'ff_ironsight_disable_crosshair' = '1' - Disables the crosshair while in ironsight mode.
o 'ff_ironsight_disable_weapon_lowering' = '1' - Disables automatic Weapon lowering while in ironsight mode.
o 'ff_new_running' = '1' - 0=Off, 1=On (Default), Enables head bobbing and prevents weapons use while running
o 'ff_staretime' = '15' - Necessary time in seconds, until Alyx reacts to staring. 'ff_enable_vehicle_headlight' = '1' ( def. '1' ) - Toggle the new buggy headlight feature (HL2 only)
* Added the following settings to the autoexec.bat files (found in cfg subdirs)
o mat_monitorgamma_tv_enabled 1
o mat_monitorgamma_tv_exp 1.6
o mat_monitorgamma_tv_range_max 255
o mat_monitorgamma_tv_range_min 1
o This gives a slightly darker image with more vibrant colors and more defined details but you should re-adjust your brightness settings in the video config tab or disable the new settings with mat_monitorgamma_tv_enabled '0', especially with low-end monitors and bad blacklevels.

* First implementation of a fully dynamic soundtrack framework (experimental)
* Killed some background music (Less is more)
* Tweaked the new running effect (reloading and shooting possible while running)
