STEAM: Content file locked / Disk write error / Content encrypted
Hey all,
a new patch has been released that adds numerous new particle presets including leaves, fire, smoke, lightning and bubbles. The particle system supports sprite sheets and perspective rendering now and received some performance improvements under Dx10/11.
There are also a number of new scene tutorials available that demonstrate what you can do with some of the effects, you can find them here on the wiki. Or check out the completed wallpapers here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1129923010
CEF + Chromium have been updated to a more recent version and a few global CSS classes have been added for project properties, so they can be styled more conveniently. Another issue with monitor detection has been fixed, since Windows has been reporting duplicated monitors as separate locations. You can now also access the wallpaper properties of other monitors more easily in the 'load properties' dialog of each wallpaper.
