* Changed to a config.ini to store various settings.
* Fixed a number of crash related bugs.
* Fixed a number of creature model skins, including:
	- Quiraj models
	- FelBat
	- MountedDemonKnight
* Fixed guild tabards so the designs are now saved into equipment files.
* Fixed an error with loading equipment files onto a different race / gender than the file was saved with.
* Improved support for software DXT3 texture decompression using DDS Lib.
* Modified the animation control.  Now able to have an animation 'list' that it will play through (currently only support upto 4 animations and loops upto 9 per animation for testing).
	- This function will act as normal so the average user shouldn't notice a difference.  However extra functionality now exists if people wish to take advantage of it.
	- To use, Un-check "Auto Animate",  Then press the "Clear" Button.  Select the animation and Loop count then press Add, continue until you've completed your list (of upto 4 animations).
* Removed SSE2 CPU instructions from compiler to support a wider variety of CPU's.
--
* Added a screenshot counter which will be used in the default filename when saving screenshots.
* Added an animated gif export feature.
* Added an option to "set canvas size" 640x480, 800x600, etc.
* Added session variable saving for a number of settings (will gradually add more).
* Added toggles for 'UsePatch' and 'UseTestPatch' accessible through the Option menu bar.
* Changed over from wxDockIt to wxIFM and configured wxWidgets to use STL, this should result in overall improved stability and performance.
* Changed the default setting of UseTestPatch to "off".
* Cleaned up the program for use and compatability with 1.9.0 (test) patch.  (older versions will still work OK with 1.9)
* Fixed a crash caused by loading a WMO after loading a normal M2 model.
* Fixed a crash on start-up if the *.MPQ files were not found, now allows users to select the correct data path via Options->Change Data Path.

* Removed memory leaks on shutdown.
* Removed SSE cpu instructions for compatability with older CPU's.
--
* "Select Locale" now saves the selected language.
* Transaprent Gifs now display correctly.
* Character Control panel now displays when loading a character file.
* Added support for loading files locally if they exist, can be toggled on-and-off under Options->Use Local Files.
* Added support for more image formats (JPG and PNG including Alpha layer - alpha layer needs tweaking) to save screenshots as.
* Added support for more image formats (JPG and TGA) to load as Background textures.
	- If the image being loaded is not a power of 2, it is automatically resised to the default size 256x256.
* Can now zoom in and out by pressing the + and - keys (on the numpad).
* Fixed a problem with available mounts not showing due to case-sensitivity.
* Fixed a crash when trying to save a screenshot or animation when the canvas was a "irregular" size.
* Fixed the "corruption" when saving a screenshot or animated gif for certain video cards/drivers.
* Fixed the Character Menu bar not being accessible when a character file is loaded.
* Improved file filter slightly to help remove duplicate file listings.
* Improved particle animation (was previously static) when going through the animation frame-by-frame via the ">>" button. 
	- Particles are still static when changing frames via the slider control.
	- Currently only displays correctly when moving forward through the frames, not backwards.
* Number of frames and frame delay automatically "suggested" based on the length of the animation.
* Tweaked the frame delay of the Gif Exporter.
	- Also found the reason why it doesn't seem to be as smooth as it should.  Window default image viewer and Internet Explorer are limited to displaying only 10 animated gif Frames per second.
* The source code should now be compatible on Linux (for the most part), compiled 'OK' on RedHat 9 with gcc for GTK+.
* The 6th value in the Item List (items.csv) now controls where an item is sheathed to.
	- This change corrected the sheathing location of the Skullforge Reaver and Thunderfury.
	- 32 left hip, 33 right hip, 26 upper right back, 27 upper left back, 28 center back, 30 (upside down) upper left back.
* When "Use Test Patch" is enabled on loading, WoW Model Viewer will use "testitems.csv" (if it exists) for the item list instead of items.csv.
	- This is so you can have 2 item lists 1 for release, and 1 for test without having to continuesly rename the files.
--
* Fixed a bug in the 'suggested frames' if the animation length was under 1000.
* Fixed (another) bug with creature models not being available in the mount list.
* Fixed a display error where certain shirts overwrote the graphical look of gloves.
* GifExporter now auto-hides before it starts capturing.
* Fixed a problem with background images that were automatically resized still not being compatible as a texture. (I hope I fixed it anyhow).
--
* Set the default of "Use Patch" back to being 'true', as it should have been.
* Fixed the "Crash Debug Report" from not being used.
* Fixed a number of crashes related to static M2 models.
* Fixed a crash caused by loading invalid models (OrgeMage and OgreWarlord are only 1 byte long?).
