Updates since the release of dm_playground_deluxe (rel ~ 12/18/2005)
####

- Fixed the tram system. Trams are visible, larger, easier to get in and out of now, and the button logic system is flawless.
- Skybox improved, live video feed via a 'monitor' to a 1/16th scale model of the map inside the skybox so players inside the skybox can look down

and see what is going on inside the map realtime.
- Skybox teleport fixed. Props that teleport into the skybox via the tunnel no longer get stuck in the skybox floor surface.
- Yet again more optimization/gameplay performance tweaks - reduced r_decal_overflow errors, overall FPS boosts.
- Lighting improvements. Changed the 'mood' of the map to more mid-afternoon, brightened up some of the darker areas of the map.

Updates since the release of dm_playground_final_rc1 (rel ~ 7/20/05):
####

- Fixed a bug that was causing physics meltdowns with repeated use of the ggun during buzy deathmatch play
- Fixed a problem with the hint/skip brushes. This greatly improves the FPS by quite a bit in many places

- Redesigned tram system now as working call/activate/send buttons. And the trams are -FAST- now.
Fill the tram bucket with SLAMs,send it over to your crossbow camping friend in the tower across
the way, detonate. Happy explosive death follows.
- Full soundscapes and sound F/X. Ok, I admit I was wrong. The map is much better with ambience.
Thanks for the suggestion.
- The 'fun' phys-props added. The crappers, the sawblades, the sofas, etc, all the things you
wish you could huck at people while standing in line at the DMV.
- Improved textures/lighting/geometry/displacements/props/skybox. Yadda, yadda...it's prettier.
- More optimization/gameplay performance tweaks.
- A couple hidden bonuses
