Current progress and release info (Patreon)

we are currently considering our plan of action for the release this month. The texture cache rewrite is coming along nicely, but not as nicely as it should have. There are still a few issues that make some games unplayable and therefore we don't want to release it in it's current state.

At least, we don't want to release it as-is without warning users of the downsides.

After some consideration, we came up with the following plan:

There be a normal 1.13.0 release without the new texture cache. This release will happen within the next 48 hours. New features in this version include: Discord rich presence, overhauled settings UI, new graphic pack features and bug fixes.

However, we will also release a version with the new texture cache (also within 48h). In other words, you have a choice to either use the stable release or the one that includes the work-in-progress version of the reworked texture cache.

This is the rough plan at least. We will clarify more details in the actual release posts.
