-==Version 0.2==
-
- * Made NiSkinData and the bone nodes it references aware of each other so they
-   can be properly destroyed.
- * Added BlocksInMemory() function to verify that all blocks are now dying when
-   the root block dies.
- * Made the bone influence flag automatic.

-   now be part of the tree as they should have been.
- * Added IKeyframeData interface.
- * Fixed a bug that was causing multiple copies of the same block to be written
-   by WriteNifTree()
- * Fixed a bug that was causing the Skeleton Root in NiSkinInstance to be
-   calculated incorrectly.

+==Version 0.7.3==
 
-==Version 0.2.1==
+ * AsQuaternion is now a const member function (contributed by Dragongeo2).
+ * Some math operators for TexCoord and Color4 (contributed by Dragongeo2).
+ * Make base_type field public (requested by DragoonWraith).
+ * Store block number in NiObject when reading a nif file (requested by DragoonWraith).
+ * Added cmake build script.
+ * GetTexture() now returns a TexDesc reference (requested by DragoonWraith).
+ * Type::Create() method (requested by DragoonWraith).
 
- * Changed Float3, Matrix33, and Matrix44 from C arrays to structures that
-   mimic C arrays ensure accessibility from scripting languages.
- * Made Get() functions for Matrix33, Matrix44, and Float3 return a value
-   instead of a reference.
- * Fixed broken SWIG wrapper; still needs some more fixing...
- * Added Makefile for building the python wrapper on linux/cygwin
- * Some fixes to the SWIG wrapper file.
- * Removed the idea of getting attributes by index, instead returning a vector
-   of attributes.
- * Changed Set(float, float, float) to Set(Float3&) in IAttr and relevant
-   descendent classes.
- * Added a Set(float, float, float) function to the Float3 struct to allow
-   setting all values in one call.
- * Changed IBlock::GetAttrList() to GetAttrs() to be more consistent with other
-   functions.
- * Made some changes to help Niflib work better with GCC.
- * All the cpp files now seem to compile in GCC.
- * Added list<blk_ref> template to SWIG file.

+==Version 0.7.2==
 
-==Version 0.3==
+ * Added some internal template functions for extracting flags and fields from
+   bitfields to NIF_IO.h.
+ * Finished new MatTexCollection helper class which makes it possible to
+   manipulate material properties and texture objects with the same classes
+   regardless of the intended NIF version.
+ * Implemented write for files of version < 3.3.0.13, so now old files can be
+   both read and written.
+ * Made some minor formatting improvements through alteration in the XML Python
+   script.
+ * Pre-main initialization of objects was causing problems with both static and
+   DLL linking of the library.  I fixed the DLL issues, but statically linking
+   the library caused none of the objects to register themselves, so I went
+   back to using a single function that registers all objects the first time
+   ReadNifTree is called.  This fixes the issues with crashing and missing
+   objects.
+ * Moved Object Registration/Creation functionality into new ObjectRegistry
+   class.  This allows users of the library to register new NIF object or
+   overwrite exiting ones without recompiling the library.
+ * Restored some missing function implementations.

-   official file seems to use them.
- * Finished basic version support - still need to implement new block reading
-   scheme for version 5 and up.
- * Updated all basic blocks with correctly versioned attributes from DocSys
-   database.
- * Updated all data blocks except for NiSkinPartition and NiControllerSequence
-   to react correctly to known version differences up to 10.1.0.0.
- * All blocks but the above now have both a Read and a Write function.
- * Sped up CreateBlock and AddAttr functions.
- * Implemented the new header scheme for reading.
- * Fixed up the new header scheme for reading.  All 10.0.1.0 files can now be
-   read as long as they don't contain unsupported block types.
- * Updated the WriteNifTree function to write the correct version string and
-   hex number for the version requested.  Still doesn't support the new header
-   layout.
- * Made a few fixes as I updated the Maya importer to the changes.
- * NiSkinPartition and NiLODNode are now read fully and can be examined by
-   calling the asString function or written back out to a file unchanged.
- * NiTriStripsData has been given a public interface, ITriStripsData, so that
-   the triangle strips it contains can be extracted.
- * added autoconf/automake files + small changes to make things GCC compatible
-   again
- * libtool fix in automake for compilation of shared libraries under Cygwin
- * Fixed GCC compilation issues.

-   recognizes any controllable block, not just nodes.
- * Made all struct types consistent with proper constructors.
- * Cleaned up the attributes a bit, inheriting some from others so that code
-   isn't duplicated and special arguments are no longer needed to create any
-   type of attribute.
- * "Name" is an attribute again; special functions to set it have been
-   removed.
- * Synced supported blocks to the DocSys, adopting the new position of the
-   AParticleModifier block.
- * SetTriangles() bugfix and added range checking on vertex & triangle counts.
- * Fix writing NIF header + small fix in AShapeData
- * Python SWIG support for strings in structure members
- * Starting to write code for exporting x*.kf and x*.nif files. (unfinished)
- * Fixed a bug in TargetControllerAttr.
- * Added IsController function.
- * Added ParentAttr for use in the AParticleModifier block.
- * Minor fixes for the Python wrapper. Initial try to write XKf and XNif
-   files.
- * Rewrote children of AKeyedData using NifStream function, and added public
-   interfaces for them.

- * Corrected default state of node flags.
- * Added SCons support for building niflib.
- * Corrected skeleton root calculation.
- * Fixed error that caused an invalid number to be written in the unknown 4
-   floats within NiSkinData.  Now simply write 4 zeros.
- * Re-implemented NiMorphData with NifStream function, fixing a bug in its
-   Write function at the same time.
- * Changed several of the attributes of NiPixelData to attributes in
-   preparation for creating an interface for it.
- * Fixed a bug in AExtraData for version 10.0.1.0+

- * Renamed TextureSource to TexSource and Texture to TexDesc.
- * Fixed overall transformation in NiSkinData.
- * Added more documentation.
- * Renamed INode functions dealing with bind position so that each function
-   clearly expresses the type of matrix its dealing with - local or world.

- * fixed GCC compilation issue
- * removed linux library prefix for the python wrapper
- * Made internal cross-reference system more general.

- * Some internal changes.
- * Fixed destructor of NiControllerSequence to remove itself as the parent of
-   blocks it points to if it is destroyed.
- * Implemented NiLookAtInterpolator.
- * Several fixes to blocks that didn't have arrays expanded in the DocSys.

-   it supports are now supported.
- * Fixed one warning in GCC.
- * Implemented GetLinks() functions for NiBoneLODController and

-
-==Version 0.5==
-
- * Niflib can now operate on most or all files from the following games:
-   Oblivion, Civilization IV, Zoo Tycoon 2, Dark Ages of Camelot,
-   and Morrowind
- * Cloning support for both single NIF classes and entire NIF trees.
- * Major API redesign featuring:
-   - Type-aware smart pointers instead of a single generic blk_ref.
-   - Direct access to functions of all classes instead of interfaces.
-   - Ability to test whether one class is derived from another and do dynamic
-     and static casting between compatible types.
-   - No more attributes, values are accessed directly with functions in the
-     classes that hold them instead.
-   - Math structures now feature operations such as matrix inverse, as well
-     as operators such as multiplying matrices and vertices.
-   - Much faster operation overall due to hard-coded read and write functions
-     generated from the XML and no sting look-ups when accessing attributes.
-   - New skin API which makes skin morphed vertices availiable and makes
-     moving the mesh to the bind position optional.
-   - All symbols are now enclosed in the Niflib namespace
-   - Most old interfaces transitioned directly to new equivalents to reduce
-     code re-writing when upgrading from previous versions.
-     
-==Version 0.5.4==
-
- * Added a != operator to Vector3.
- * Initialized TexCoord values to 0.0f.
- * Added Visibility flag functions to NiAVObject.cpp
- * Fixed NiTexturingProperty::SetTexture to set the internal hasXTexture
-   variables correctly.
- * Fix DAoC bug with kob_m_head01.nif
- * Cycle type is now set correctly on controllers created or modified by
-   MergeNifTrees function.
- * Changed default for new controllers to 12; Active/Clamped.  Should get
-   cycle type from NiControllerSequence.
- * Add a default value for the new controller so that its active.
- * Update niflib with bspline interpolation abilities
- * Change mergeniftrees to default phase to 0.0f instead of 1.0f as its a
-   better default value.
- * Determined that there are references to NiBSplineData and
-   NiBSplineBasisData in all NiBSplineInterpolator derived classes.
-   Consolidated the various references from the derived classes to the
-   NiBSplineInterpolator class in the XML and in Niflib.
- * We can't have functions on compounds as all files for them are generated.  Removed CalcNumTriangles so Niflib programs will link.
- * Applied latest XML changes.
- * Split some things that were previously part of NIF_IO.h into their own
-   files to make SWIG wrapping work better.
- * Made the MergeNifTree function set the start time, stop time, and
-   frequency of the controller it attaches an interpolator to.
- * Made the MergeNifTree function create a controller of the right type and
-   attach it to the specified node if one does not already exist.
- * Fixed an include statement to be relative.
- * Add extra targets getter/setter for multitargeter controller.  Probably
-   need to fix GetRefs() at some point get return weak pointer references as
-   well as strong ones.
- * Fix Math so that it decomposes rotations back to stored rotation and not
-   the inverse.  Fix Scale so that it returns the correct value rather than
-   x+y + (z/3).
- * Add helper methods for useful flags for importing data in avobject and
-   controller sequence.
- * Suppressed most SWIG warnings.
- * Tried to implement MergeNifTrees for KF files with a NiControllerSequence
-   root.  Untested.
- * Minor change to Python wrapper file.
- 
-==Version 0.5.6==
-
- * Added code to ensure that bones have their flag set properly, even if they
-   are not so in the original NIF file.
- * Added SendNifTreeToBindPos function to set a whole file to the bind
-   position.
- * NiTriStripsData::GetTriangles no longer returns triangles that have
-   matching vertices and, thus, no surface area.
- * Added a SetBoneWeights function to NiTriBasedGeom which automatically
-   calculates the correct bone center and radius.
- * The NiSkinData::SetBoneWeights function now requires the radius and center
-   as arguments.
- * Removed lingering cout statements except those within debug defines.
- * NiNode flags now default to 8 for "Not a skin influence."
- * The code I added to make NiTriBasedGeom select the correct skeleton root
-   was wrong and has been re-written and tested.  It now seems to select the
-   same skeleton root as real NIF files.
- * The NiTriBasedGeomData::SetUVSetCount function now sets the hasUVs bool
-   value correctly.
- * Fixed some skin related bugs in ComplexShape::Split.
- * Created a new ComplexShape class which can currently be used to
-   automatically split the sort of complicated mesh that contains
-   per-point-per-face attributes into NiTriShape classes.  Should support
-   skinning as well, but has not been tested.
- * Added TexCoord == operator.
- * Changed type of Triangle members to unsigned short.
- * Color4 now defaults to all zeros.
- * NiAVObject::AddProperty now takes a const argument.
- * Fixed exception in NiTexturingProperty to throw a runtime_error instead of
-   a string.
- * NiTriBasedGeom::BindSkin should now automatically finds the skeleton root
-   by itself.  The skeleton_root argument has been removed.
+ * Removed predefines from Doxyfile since they are no longer needed with the
+   new Python generation method.
+ * Disabled Whole Program Optimization in project settings.  This makes a full
+   recompile take longer, but makes compiling after small changes to a few
+   files much much faster.
+ * Niflib is now using a new XML update method.  This means:
+   - There are no longer any defines, things like inheritance class name, NIF
+     attribute variables, and default constructor code are all visible without
+     looking at another file.
+   - All non-custom parts of the Object files are now totally identical and in
+     the same order, so it will be easier to compare them.
+   - NiObjects are now completely self-contained.  To remove them from Niflib,
+     you have only to exclude their CPP file from the build.  To add new ones,
+     you only have to include their new CPP file.
+   - Making a change to a NiObject implementation file only causes that one
+     file to be re-compiled, which is generally much quicker than before since
+     the large obj_define and obj_impl files do not have to be parsed or
+     compiled.
+   - There are no longer any "Internal" versions of the Read, Write, asString,
+     FixLinks, or GetRefs functions.  Now there is just one function for each
+     of these with pre and post custom code areas (except for GetRefs which I
+     didn't think needed it.)
+   - Updates to the hierarchy in the XML should now be almost completely
+     automatic.  All that should be necessary to make an update is to add any
+     new NiObject CPP files to the build.
+   - Changes to the generated parts of the NiObject files can now be made at
+     any time, and immediately applied to all NiObjects without editing each
+     existing one.
+ * Moved FixLink template file from obj_impl.cpp to its own file.
+ * Moving array template to nif_basic_types so that NIF_IO won't need to be
+   exposed.
+ * Removed erroneous bhkMeshShape object.
+ * Added support in the version parsing functions for versions such as "3.03"
+   which were being parsed as "3.3.0.0" before.  These will now be parsed as
+   "3.0.3.0."
+ * All Bridge Commander demo NIF files other than those that contain voxel 3D
+   textures can now be read.
+ * All DAoC demo NIF files except those of version 2.3 and those that do not
+   appear to store NIF data can now be read.
+ * Updated user's guide.
+ * Added functions to NiImage and NiTextureProperty to allow texture name to be
+   manipulated in <= 3.1 files.
+ * Updated ComplexShape to take the above objects into account when deciding
+   whether to include UV coordinates.
+ * Fixed one more bug that allows 3.3.0.13 files to work again.
+ * Added 10.0.1.2 to the list of "supported" versions.
+ * Added version 3.1 to list of "supported" versions.
+ * Fixed several bugs that were preventing support for old 3.1 and below files
+   from working.  Many of these can now be loaded.
+ * Updated Niflib to the latest XML which adds support for:  bhkMeshShape,
+   NiMultiTextureProperty, NiRawImageData, NiRollController, NiSequence,
+   NiBinaryVoxelExtraData, NiBinaryVoxelData, NiPSysCollider, NiBone,
+   NiPSysSphericalCollider, BSWindModifier, NiTriShapeSkinController objects,
+   and possibly more.  This also significantly improves the class hierarchy.
+ * Objects now have a Create methods and register themselves in the global
+   object map with pre-main initialization, making obj_factories.cpp obsolete.
+ * Re-exposed TYPE constants and marked them NIFLIB_API, making the TypeConst
+   function obsolete.  You now must use NiObject::TYPE instead of
+   NiObject::TypeConst() again.
+ * Re-exposed IDENTITY constants and marked then NIFLIB_API.  Now you must use
+   MatrixXX::IDENTITY instead of MatrixXX::Identity() again.
+ * Changed the default linkage to DLL.  You now have to define
+   NIFLIB_STATIC_LINK if you want to use static linking instead of having to
+   define USE_NIFLIB_DLL if you want to use the DLL.
+ * Added a new Debug - DLL configuration.
+ * Static configurations now create either niflib_static.lib or
+   niflib_static_debug.lib, while DLL configurations create niflib_dll.lib and
+   niflib_dll_debug.lib along with niflib.dll and niflib_debug.dll.
+ * Added ClearHardareSkinInfo function to NiTriBasedGeom so that
+   SetSkinPartition functions could be made NIFLIB_HIDDEN.
+ * Removed access to unknown data in NiPSysEmitterCtlrData.
+ * Some function and enum name changes in NiAlphaProperty and
+   NiStencilProperty to be more consistent with OpenGL and the rest of Niflib.
+ * Removed access to unknown parameters in NiSourceTexture and merged file name
+   access functions.
+ * Removed redundant Get/SetHidden functions from NiAVObject, use
+   Get/SetVisibility instead.
+ * Renamed Get/SetCollision to Get/SetCollisionMode in NiAVObject.
+ * Made sure all classes fell into 3 namespaces:  Niflib, triangle_stripper,
+   and NvTriStrip.
+ * Removed some functions from NiObject that did nothing.
+ * Moved structures contained within the ComplexShape class outside of it so
+   they're easier to reference.
+ * Moved ListAncestors and FindCommonAncestor helper functions from inside of
+   NiGeometry to public interface.
+ * Added IsAnimated function to NiObjectNET.
+ * Implemented experimental endian support which means that Niflib may be able
+   to work on PowrePC Macs and other big-endian CPUs, however support is not
+   complete.  Theoretically it should be possible to read a big-endian file on
+   a little-endian system, but it is not possible to do the opposite, or to
+   create a little-endian file due to issues with the header needing to switch
+   endian types int he middle of the generated code and always read the bytes
+   that make up the NIF version in the same order.
+ * DLL files built with the MSVC project will now appear in the niflib/bin
+   folder instead of the common ../bin folder.  This should make it easier to
+   find the files if only the niflib folder is checked out.
+ * Added warning comments to generated files advising the user not to edit them
+   manually.
+ * Changed NiNode AddChild function to keep NiTriBasedGeom-derived objects at
+   the top of the list.  Fixes issue with Oblivion flattened skin file
+   hierarchies where the NiTriBasedGeom skin was appearing after the NiNode
+   bones that it used in the child list of their mutual parent.
+ * Project file now properly uses "Multithreaded DLL" runtime library for
+   "Release - DLL" configuration.
+ * Removed old SWIG-related code as SWIG will no longer be suppoted.
+ * Fixed GetIDString virtual function missmatch that was causing the name not
+   to show up when the function was called from a NiObjectRef.
+ * Removed precompiled header file stuff from project files that is no longer
+   used.
+ * Fixed Niflib DLL compile.  All public functions should now be marked with
+   either NIFLIB_API or NIFLIB_HIDDEN.  May have missed a few here or there
+   but they should be noticed eventually.
+ * All public functions are now documented with Doxygen comments.
+ * Changed all occurrences of uint and ushort to unsigned int and unsigned
+   short.
+ * Fixed many GCC compile problems.  Niflib should compile in GCC now:
+   - Replaced array template with a simpler one that works with GCC.
+   - Replaced "unsigned" with "unsigned int"  GCC doesn't like this.
+   - Changed C++ style unsigned int casts so GCC will be able to understand
+     them.
+   - Properly capitalized include file names in niflib.cpp.
+ * Changed as many functions as possible to take pointer arguments instead of
+   Ref template arguments.
+ * Prevented the link map from being copied unnecessarily, improving
+   performance and memory usage.
    
+ ==Version 0.6.2==
+ 
+ * Improved support for Freedom Force games thanks to Symon.
+ * Change NodeGroup to use pointers instead of Refs.
+ * NiGeometry::BindSkin now throws an exception if one of the passed in bone
+   references is NULL.
+ * NiNode::IsSplitMeshProxy now returns false if it is a skin influence.
+ * NiTriShapeData::GetTriangles now only returns valid triangles.
+ * Fixed a bug in ComplexShape::Merge that occurred when a shape had no UV set,
+   but, for some reason, had a texture referencing UV set zero.
+ * Added NiGeometry::NormalizeSkinWeights function to ensure all skin weights
+   add up to 1.0 on export.
+ * ComplexShape::Split now cuts out weights below 0.1 and normalizes the
+   result.
+ * Fixed a bug which could cause NiSkinInstance to try to call a function on a
+   NiNode that was in the midst of destruction.
+ * Added NiGeometry::ApplySkinOffset function to clear nodes between skins and
+   the skeleton root.
+ * Added some new object types for NIF version 3.1, but most files still can't
+   be opened.
+ * Fixed object auto-destruct.  Niflib is now destroying objects properly and
+   reporting the right number of Objects from NiObject::NumObjectsInMemory.
+ * Generated array code now prints 20 items per 2D array in total when verbose
+   is off.
+ * Fixed duplicated Read call.  All FFvt3R demo files can now be read by
+   Niflib.
+ * Added NiGeometry::ApplyTransforms function to automatically zero out the
+   transforms of a mesh and apply them to its vertices.
+ * Added NiGeometryData::Transform function to apply an arbitrary transform
+   to all vertices and normals of a mesh (used by above).
+ * Added NiNode::PropagateTransform function to apply a NiNode's local
+   transform to its children and then zero it out.
+ * Fixed NiTriShapeData to properly set numTriangles when SetTriangles is
+   called.
+ * Removed "set root to scene root" option from NiGeometry::BindSkin.
+ * Replaced GetSkinInfluencedVertices function with GetSkinDeformation
+   function which takes in references to two vectors and fills them with the
+   skin deformed vertices and normals
+ * Added constructor to Matrix44 to convert from Matrix33.
+ * Change default to little endian instead of big endian.
+ * Added NiClodSkinInstance and fixed NiClodData.  Niflib can now open all
+   Freedom Force demo NIF files.
+ * Corrected Shape/particle hierarchy by adding NiGeometry and NiGeometryData.

- * NiGeometry::BindSkin now throws an exception if one of the passed in bone
-   references is NULL.
- * NiNode::IsSplitMeshProxy now returns false if it is a skin influence.
- * NiTriShapeData::GetTriangles now only returns valid triangles.
- * Fixed a bug in ComplexShape::Merge that occurred when a shape had no UV set,
-   but, for some reason, had a texture referencing UV set zero.
- * Added NiGeometry::NormalizeSkinWeights function to ensure all skin weights
-   add up to 1.0 on export.
- * ComplexShape::Split now cuts out weights below 0.1 and normalizes the
-   result.
- * Fixed a bug which could cause NiSkinInstance to try to call a function on a
-   NiNode that was in the midst of destruction.
- * Added NiGeometry::ApplySkinOffset function to clear nodes between skins and
-   the skeleton root.
- * Added some new object types for NIF version 3.1, but most files still can't
-   be opened.
- * Fixed object auto-destruct.  Niflib is now destroying objects properly and
-   reporting the right number of Objects from NiObject::NumObjectsInMemory.
- * Generated array code now prints 20 items per 2D array in total when verbose
-   is off.
- * Fixed duplicated Read call.  All FFvt3R demo files can now be read by
-   Niflib.
- * Added NiGeometry::ApplyTransforms function to automatically zero out the
-   transforms of a mesh and apply them to its vertices.
- * Added NiGeometryData::Transform function to apply an arbitrary transform
-   to all vertices and normals of a mesh (used by above).
- * Added NiNode::PropagateTransform function to apply a NiNode's local
-   transform to its children and then zero it out.
- * Fixed NiTriShapeData to properly set numTriangles when SetTriangles is
-   called.
- * Removed "set root to scene root" option from NiGeometry::BindSkin.
- * Replaced GetSkinInfluencedVertices function with GetSkinDeformation
-   function which takes in references to two vectors and fills them with the
-   skin deformed vertices and normals
- * Added constructor to Matrix44 to convert from Matrix33.
- * Change default to little endian instead of big endian.
- * Added NiClodSkinInstance and fixed NiClodData.  Niflib can now open all
-   Freedom Force demo NIF files.
- * Corrected Shape/particle hierarchy by adding NiGeometry and NiGeometryData.
+==Version 0.5.6==
+
+ * Added code to ensure that bones have their flag set properly, even if they
+   are not so in the original NIF file.
+ * Added SendNifTreeToBindPos function to set a whole file to the bind
+   position.
+ * NiTriStripsData::GetTriangles no longer returns triangles that have
+   matching vertices and, thus, no surface area.
+ * Added a SetBoneWeights function to NiTriBasedGeom which automatically
+   calculates the correct bone center and radius.
+ * The NiSkinData::SetBoneWeights function now requires the radius and center
+   as arguments.
+ * Removed lingering cout statements except those within debug defines.
+ * NiNode flags now default to 8 for "Not a skin influence."
+ * The code I added to make NiTriBasedGeom select the correct skeleton root
+   was wrong and has been re-written and tested.  It now seems to select the
+   same skeleton root as real NIF files.
+ * The NiTriBasedGeomData::SetUVSetCount function now sets the hasUVs bool
+   value correctly.
+ * Fixed some skin related bugs in ComplexShape::Split.
+ * Created a new ComplexShape class which can currently be used to
+   automatically split the sort of complicated mesh that contains
+   per-point-per-face attributes into NiTriShape classes.  Should support
+   skinning as well, but has not been tested.
+ * Added TexCoord == operator.
+ * Changed type of Triangle members to unsigned short.
+ * Color4 now defaults to all zeros.
+ * NiAVObject::AddProperty now takes a const argument.
+ * Fixed exception in NiTexturingProperty to throw a runtime_error instead of
+   a string.
+ * NiTriBasedGeom::BindSkin should now automatically finds the skeleton root
+   by itself.  The skeleton_root argument has been removed.
+   
+==Version 0.5.4==
+
+ * Added a != operator to Vector3.
+ * Initialized TexCoord values to 0.0f.
+ * Added Visibility flag functions to NiAVObject.cpp
+ * Fixed NiTexturingProperty::SetTexture to set the internal hasXTexture
+   variables correctly.
+ * Fix DAoC bug with kob_m_head01.nif
+ * Cycle type is now set correctly on controllers created or modified by
+   MergeNifTrees function.
+ * Changed default for new controllers to 12; Active/Clamped.  Should get
+   cycle type from NiControllerSequence.
+ * Add a default value for the new controller so that its active.
+ * Update niflib with bspline interpolation abilities
+ * Change mergeniftrees to default phase to 0.0f instead of 1.0f as its a
+   better default value.
+ * Determined that there are references to NiBSplineData and
+   NiBSplineBasisData in all NiBSplineInterpolator derived classes.
+   Consolidated the various references from the derived classes to the
+   NiBSplineInterpolator class in the XML and in Niflib.
+ * We can't have functions on compounds as all files for them are generated.  Removed CalcNumTriangles so Niflib programs will link.
+ * Applied latest XML changes.
+ * Split some things that were previously part of NIF_IO.h into their own
+   files to make SWIG wrapping work better.
+ * Made the MergeNifTree function set the start time, stop time, and
+   frequency of the controller it attaches an interpolator to.
+ * Made the MergeNifTree function create a controller of the right type and
+   attach it to the specified node if one does not already exist.
+ * Fixed an include statement to be relative.
+ * Add extra targets getter/setter for multitargeter controller.  Probably
+   need to fix GetRefs() at some point get return weak pointer references as
+   well as strong ones.
+ * Fix Math so that it decomposes rotations back to stored rotation and not
+   the inverse.  Fix Scale so that it returns the correct value rather than
+   x+y + (z/3).
+ * Add helper methods for useful flags for importing data in avobject and
+   controller sequence.
+ * Suppressed most SWIG warnings.
+ * Tried to implement MergeNifTrees for KF files with a NiControllerSequence
+   root.  Untested.
+ * Minor change to Python wrapper file.
  
- ==Version 0.7==
+==Version 0.5==
+
+ * Niflib can now operate on most or all files from the following games:
+   Oblivion, Civilization IV, Zoo Tycoon 2, Dark Ages of Camelot,
+   and Morrowind
+ * Cloning support for both single NIF classes and entire NIF trees.
+ * Major API redesign featuring:
+   - Type-aware smart pointers instead of a single generic blk_ref.
+   - Direct access to functions of all classes instead of interfaces.
+   - Ability to test whether one class is derived from another and do dynamic
+     and static casting between compatible types.
+   - No more attributes, values are accessed directly with functions in the
+     classes that hold them instead.
+   - Math structures now feature operations such as matrix inverse, as well
+     as operators such as multiplying matrices and vertices.
+   - Much faster operation overall due to hard-coded read and write functions
+     generated from the XML and no sting look-ups when accessing attributes.
+   - New skin API which makes skin morphed vertices availiable and makes
+     moving the mesh to the bind position optional.
+   - All symbols are now enclosed in the Niflib namespace
+   - Most old interfaces transitioned directly to new equivalents to reduce
+     code re-writing when upgrading from previous versions.
+

+ * Finished basic version support - still need to implement new block reading
+   scheme for version 5 and up.
+ * Updated all basic blocks with correctly versioned attributes from DocSys
+   database.
+ * Updated all data blocks except for NiSkinPartition and NiControllerSequence

+ * Renamed TextureSource to TexSource and Texture to TexDesc.
+ * Fixed overall transformation in NiSkinData.
+ * Added more documentation.
+ * Renamed INode functions dealing with bind position so that each function

+ * Removed the GNU buildsystem; SCons supersedes it.
  
- * Removed predefines from Doxyfile since they are no longer needed with the
-   new Python generation method.
- * Disabled Whole Program Optimization in project settings.  This makes a full
-   recompile take longer, but makes compiling after small changes to a few
-   files much much faster.
- * Niflib is now using a new XML update method.  This means:
-   - There are no longer any defines, things like inheritance class name, NIF
-     attribute variables, and default constructor code are all visible without
-     looking at another file.
-   - All non-custom parts of the Object files are now totally identical and in
-     the same order, so it will be easier to compare them.
-   - NiObjects are now completely self-contained.  To remove them from Niflib,
-     you have only to exclude their CPP file from the build.  To add new ones,
-     you only have to include their new CPP file.
-   - Making a change to a NiObject implementation file only causes that one
-     file to be re-compiled, which is generally much quicker than before since
-     the large obj_define and obj_impl files do not have to be parsed or
-     compiled.
-   - There are no longer any "Internal" versions of the Read, Write, asString,
-     FixLinks, or GetRefs functions.  Now there is just one function for each
-     of these with pre and post custom code areas (except for GetRefs which I
-     didn't think needed it.)
-   - Updates to the hierarchy in the XML should now be almost completely
-     automatic.  All that should be necessary to make an update is to add any
-     new NiObject CPP files to the build.
-   - Changes to the generated parts of the NiObject files can now be made at
-     any time, and immediately applied to all NiObjects without editing each
-     existing one.
- * Moved FixLink template file from obj_impl.cpp to its own file.
- * Moving array template to nif_basic_types so that NIF_IO won't need to be
-   exposed.
- * Removed erroneous bhkMeshShape object.
- * Added support in the version parsing functions for versions such as "3.03"
-   which were being parsed as "3.3.0.0" before.  These will now be parsed as
-   "3.0.3.0."
- * All Bridge Commander demo NIF files other than those that contain voxel 3D
-   textures can now be read.
- * All DAoC demo NIF files except those of version 2.3 and those that do not
-   appear to store NIF data can now be read.
- * Updated user's guide.
- * Added functions to NiImage and NiTextureProperty to allow texture name to be
-   manipulated in <= 3.1 files.
- * Updated ComplexShape to take the above objects into account when deciding
-   whether to include UV coordinates.
- * Fixed one more bug that allows 3.3.0.13 files to work again.
- * Added 10.0.1.2 to the list of "supported" versions.
- * Added version 3.1 to list of "supported" versions.
- * Fixed several bugs that were preventing support for old 3.1 and below files
-   from working.  Many of these can now be loaded.
- * Updated Niflib to the latest XML which adds support for:  bhkMeshShape,
-   NiMultiTextureProperty, NiRawImageData, NiRollController, NiSequence,
-   NiBinaryVoxelExtraData, NiBinaryVoxelData, NiPSysCollider, NiBone,
-   NiPSysSphericalCollider, BSWindModifier, NiTriShapeSkinController objects,
-   and possibly more.  This also significantly improves the class hierarchy.
- * Objects now have a Create methods and register themselves in the global
-   object map with pre-main initialization, making obj_factories.cpp obsolete.
- * Re-exposed TYPE constants and marked them NIFLIB_API, making the TypeConst
-   function obsolete.  You now must use NiObject::TYPE instead of
-   NiObject::TypeConst() again.
- * Re-exposed IDENTITY constants and marked then NIFLIB_API.  Now you must use
-   MatrixXX::IDENTITY instead of MatrixXX::Identity() again.
- * Changed the default linkage to DLL.  You now have to define
-   NIFLIB_STATIC_LINK if you want to use static linking instead of having to
-   define USE_NIFLIB_DLL if you want to use the DLL.
- * Added a new Debug - DLL configuration.
- * Static configurations now create either niflib_static.lib or
-   niflib_static_debug.lib, while DLL configurations create niflib_dll.lib and
-   niflib_dll_debug.lib along with niflib.dll and niflib_debug.dll.
- * Added ClearHardareSkinInfo function to NiTriBasedGeom so that
-   SetSkinPartition functions could be made NIFLIB_HIDDEN.
- * Removed access to unknown data in NiPSysEmitterCtlrData.
- * Some function and enum name changes in NiAlphaProperty and
-   NiStencilProperty to be more consistent with OpenGL and the rest of Niflib.
- * Removed access to unknown parameters in NiSourceTexture and merged file name
-   access functions.
- * Removed redundant Get/SetHidden functions from NiAVObject, use
-   Get/SetVisibility instead.
- * Renamed Get/SetCollision to Get/SetCollisionMode in NiAVObject.
- * Made sure all classes fell into 3 namespaces:  Niflib, triangle_stripper,
-   and NvTriStrip.
- * Removed some functions from NiObject that did nothing.
- * Moved structures contained within the ComplexShape class outside of it so
-   they're easier to reference.
- * Moved ListAncestors and FindCommonAncestor helper functions from inside of
-   NiGeometry to public interface.
- * Added IsAnimated function to NiObjectNET.
- * Implemented experimental endian support which means that Niflib may be able
-   to work on PowrePC Macs and other big-endian CPUs, however support is not
-   complete.  Theoretically it should be possible to read a big-endian file on
-   a little-endian system, but it is not possible to do the opposite, or to
-   create a little-endian file due to issues with the header needing to switch
-   endian types int he middle of the generated code and always read the bytes
-   that make up the NIF version in the same order.
- * DLL files built with the MSVC project will now appear in the niflib/bin
-   folder instead of the common ../bin folder.  This should make it easier to
-   find the files if only the niflib folder is checked out.
- * Added warning comments to generated files advising the user not to edit them
-   manually.
- * Changed NiNode AddChild function to keep NiTriBasedGeom-derived objects at
-   the top of the list.  Fixes issue with Oblivion flattened skin file
-   hierarchies where the NiTriBasedGeom skin was appearing after the NiNode
-   bones that it used in the child list of their mutual parent.
- * Project file now properly uses "Multithreaded DLL" runtime library for
-   "Release - DLL" configuration.
- * Removed old SWIG-related code as SWIG will no longer be suppoted.
- * Fixed GetIDString virtual function missmatch that was causing the name not
-   to show up when the function was called from a NiObjectRef.
- * Removed precompiled header file stuff from project files that is no longer
-   used.
- * Fixed Niflib DLL compile.  All public functions should now be marked with
-   either NIFLIB_API or NIFLIB_HIDDEN.  May have missed a few here or there
-   but they should be noticed eventually.
- * All public functions are now documented with Doxygen comments.
- * Changed all occurrences of uint and ushort to unsigned int and unsigned
-   short.
- * Fixed many GCC compile problems.  Niflib should compile in GCC now:
-   - Replaced array template with a simpler one that works with GCC.
-   - Replaced "unsigned" with "unsigned int"  GCC doesn't like this.
-   - Changed C++ style unsigned int casts so GCC will be able to understand
-     them.
-   - Properly capitalized include file names in niflib.cpp.
- * Changed as many functions as possible to take pointer arguments instead of
-   Ref template arguments.
- * Prevented the link map from being copied unnecessarily, improving
-   performance and memory usage.
-   
-==Version 0.7.2==
+==Version 0.2.1==
 
- * Added some internal template functions for extracting flags and fields from
-   bitfields to NIF_IO.h.
- * Finished new MatTexCollection helper class which makes it possible to
-   manipulate material properties and texture objects with the same classes
-   regardless of the intended NIF version.
- * Implemented write for files of version < 3.3.0.13, so now old files can be
-   both read and written.
- * Made some minor formatting improvements through alteration in the XML Python
-   script.
- * Pre-main initialization of objects was causing problems with both static and
-   DLL linking of the library.  I fixed the DLL issues, but statically linking
-   the library caused none of the objects to register themselves, so I went
-   back to using a single function that registers all objects the first time
-   ReadNifTree is called.  This fixes the issues with crashing and missing
-   objects.
- * Moved Object Registration/Creation functionality into new ObjectRegistry
-   class.  This allows users of the library to register new NIF object or
-   overwrite exiting ones without recompiling the library.
- * Restored some missing function implementations.
+ * Changed Float3, Matrix33, and Matrix44 from C arrays to structures that
+   mimic C arrays ensure accessibility from scripting languages.
+ * Made Get() functions for Matrix33, Matrix44, and Float3 return a value
+   instead of a reference.
+ * Fixed broken SWIG wrapper; still needs some more fixing...
+ * Added Makefile for building the python wrapper on linux/cygwin
+ * Some fixes to the SWIG wrapper file.
+ * Removed the idea of getting attributes by index, instead returning a vector
+   of attributes.
+ * Changed Set(float, float, float) to Set(Float3&) in IAttr and relevant
+   descendent classes.
+ * Added a Set(float, float, float) function to the Float3 struct to allow
+   setting all values in one call.
+ * Changed IBlock::GetAttrList() to GetAttrs() to be more consistent with other
+   functions.
+ * Made some changes to help Niflib work better with GCC.
+ * All the cpp files now seem to compile in GCC.
+ * Added list<blk_ref> template to SWIG file.
+ * Capitalized interface ID constants.
+ * Added support for [] operator to attr_ref in Python.
+ * Added Python support for [] to Matrix33, Matrix44, and Float3
+ * Added __setitem__ operators to blk_ref for Python.
+ * Un-commented attr_ref operator=(blk_ref) function.
+ * Changed MatrixRowN types to FloatN, merging MatrixRow3 and Float3.
+ * Added Matrix22 and Float2 types.
+ * Changed bump mapping members  in Texture struct to use Matrix22.
+ * Changed members in BoundingBox struct to use Vector3 and Matrix33 types.

- * Store block number in NiObject when reading a nif file (requested by DragoonWraith).
- * Added cmake build script.
- * GetTexture() now returns a TexDesc reference (requested by DragoonWraith).
- * Type::Create() method (requested by DragoonWraith).
+ * Made NiSkinData and the bone nodes it references aware of each other so they
+   can be properly destroyed.
+ * Added BlocksInMemory() function to verify that all blocks are now dying when
+   the root block dies.
+ * Made the bone influence flag automatic.
+ * Changed NiNode Print() function to asString() as it should have been and
+   moved it to the cpp file.
+ * Added a readout of a list of skin data blocks that are connected to each
+   NiNode for testing.
+ * Fixed other functions that were still Print() instead of asString()
+ * Finished up NiSkinData block.
+ * Automated NiSkinInstance Skeleton Root attribute and AController Target Node
+   attribute.  All back references should now be automatic.
+ * Fixed bug in Bounding Box attribute Write() function
+ * Added Write() Function for NiKeyFrameData, NiTextKeyExtraData, and
+   NiStringExtraData
+ * Added AExtraData class with a proper index attribute.  ExtraData blocks will
+   now be part of the tree as they should have been.
+ * Added IKeyframeData interface.
+ * Fixed a bug that was causing multiple copies of the same block to be written
+   by WriteNifTree()
+ * Fixed a bug that was causing the Skeleton Root in NiSkinInstance to be
+   calculated incorrectly.
