<ul>
<li>
<p>This is a hotfix for v1.23 that fixes a couple of things.</p>

<li>
<p>In particular the broken &quot;sun_runtime_obj_shadows&quot; has been fixed. In DromEd the crashes related to DXT</p>

<h5>General:</h5>

<li>fixed path priority order bug with subtitle files (was accidentally reversed)</li>
<li>reduced risk of the door drifting bug that can happen in some occasional FMs (door-based objects that should
rotate but instead of rotating just float away into infinity)</li>
<li>added &quot;no_unload_fmsel&quot; option to cam_mod.ini (can be useful if experiencing crash with FMSel, especially on Win10)</li>
</ul>
<h5>DromEd:</h5>

<li>fixed ambient sounds disappearing after playing in-game movie</li>
<li>fixed link data for certain link types (AIWatchObj) getting reset when reordering them (in link list dialog)</li>

<li>fixed DML syntax error bug when working with links that have no data set</li>
<li>fixed missing field indexing in DML export (for properties that contain multiple fields with the same name)</li>
<li>fixed a bug that could occur under certain circumstances with StimSource and Receptron commands in DMLs</li>
<li>fixed a few crashes that could happen in rare situations</li>
