+-----------------------------

+Upd: (General)     Duplicate line breaks in TXT files are now detected and are logged in the error.log.

+Upd: (Editor)      The currently selected note moves along when an entire lyrics line is played with P. It jumps back to the last selected note afterwards.

+Upd: (Editor)      The current note is now highlighted in red.

+

Medley tags refer to beats. The medley start tag always coincides with the beginning of a note. The medley end tag always coincides with the end of a note (note start beat + note length). The default fade in and fade out times are 8 and 4 seconds, respectively.

+New: (Medley)      Medley mode: Sing chorus of up to five different songs subsequently. As long as no medley tags are set, the program will try to calculate medley sections automatically (works particularly well with pop songs). These sections can then be corrected in the song editor. Start of a single tagged chorus with S, of a calculated chorus with SHIFT+S. Up to five songs of one folder/category with D and SHIFT+D, respectively. Applying this to a category/folder, the playlist will be a mix of all folders.

+New: (Videos)      Aspect ratio of video switchable while singing with the A key (Stretch, Crop, LetterBox). Current selection will be displayed at the top of the singscreen for 3 seconds when switched.

+Upd: (General)     During the diplay of the scorescreen and the highscore screen, the current song is played. Switchable in medley mode.

+Ultrastar Deluxe v1.0.1a Challenge MOD r2 (02.01.2010):

+-----------------------------

+New: (Challenge)   Handicap-Mode: if more than 3 highscore entries exist for both players, the player with the lower score will be punished by reducing his score by a certain percentage (makes hardly any sense with the "Hold The Line" mode).

+Fix: (General)     Screenshots are working again.

+Fix: (General)     Player names are stored in templates in party and challenge mode (ALT+F1..F12).

+Fix: (Challenge)   If plugins are disabled, at least the duel plugin has to exist.

+Fix: (ScreenScore) With activated fade and 4 or 6 players, the game crashed after the second song. Even if it didn't crash, there were display problems and highscores were recorded twice.

+Fix: (ScreenScore) Numbers of players 4 to 6 were displayed as P1 to P3

+

+Ultrastar Deluxe v1.0.1a Challenge MOD r1 (31.12.2009):

+New: (Challenge)   Improved "randomness" in the selection of plugins: plugins are chosen less randomly, resulting in a greater diversity of plugins

+New: (Challenge)   Player P1, who choses the next song, can use 5 jokers in each round (plus 1 additionally)

+New: (Challenge)   No duplicate songs on subsequent random song searches.

+Upd: (Highscores)  Top-5 list changed to a Top-8 list.

+Upd: (Highscores)  A song has to be sung completely to the last note that it counts as being sung and that it is stored into the database.
