1.9.7 compatibility

[Kilinich]

So let's summarize why 1.9.7 is unusable and old scenes not working (to help Emil fix everything)!

The most important of reported bugs IMHO:

no materialVelocity
+inf inertiaMultiplier object disappear
0-transparency lasers not working
hinges stuck in mechanical devices
non-zero initial angVel
incorrect rotation air friction
no custom chain in interface

Less important but can be worked out for better compatibility:

textConstrained option not working
"world" scripts lost on undo
Caps/Num/Scroll keys don't work as before (was triggers)

and a lot of small problems not confirmed from dev team:

lasers group toggle interface bug
eraser tool and selected geom bug
chain group duplicates in .phn file
+ ... (from 1.8.5)

In my humble opinions, keeping all compatibilities is not good for improvement.

I agree, I'd like idea to open algobox2 for algodoo2 and rebuild everything but since it only minor version update it must be able to play old files

"The most important..." - have all been fixed for next beta!

I'll get to the others soon.

wow, Emil, glad you answering almost on every topic

When you plan to release next version so I'll try to update Russian translation before that date?
