EVERYTHING ELSE
GENERAL - Updated some character models.

GENERAL - Added a Max Framerate option for Steam and Win GDK.
GENERAL - Enabled the “Motion Blur” and “Underwater Warping” toggles on console platforms.
BUILDER - Updated Decal, Paint and Configurator UI to be consistent with the rest of the Builder.
BUILDER - Textures, Decals and Skins are now all within what we call the Paint Shop.
BUILDER - Added a ‘Select all Blocks of Same Style' button. This allows you to quickly select all blocks that are using the same colours and textures.
BUILDER - Added several new colours
BUILDER - Added a new Damping Slider to Hinges, Ailerons, Servos and Pistons to allow further customisation of how structures behave. This means if you want a floppy hinge, you can lower the damping and it will flop around like before the Unity update, for example).
BUILDER - When playing with Controller and you have a Configuration Slider selected you can now press and hold Y/Triangle to allow finer input. If playing on console you can press X/Square to pop the console virtual keyboard and manually input values.
