1.2.2.11
~~~~~~~~
new:
- you can now also sort on file type in the File Explorer
changed:
- When you now click on the "LBA Reader" menu item (LBADeCOMP)
  LBA Reader will be started not LBA Viewer
- The LBA Reader is more stable now, also fixed a few bugs in
  the text conversion.
- Improved the File Info: added descriptions to the LBA2 vox files
known bugs:
- Some text files (not the english ones) give a message of a unknown
  character. I'll fix this if I know that charater that should be

1.2.2.10
~~~~~~~~
new:
- you can now also load PCX files. So you can load the LBA2
  screenshots without having to convert them first.
- you can also load Targa images (*.tga). These images are
  created by ProGrab. (only 256 color image w/out compression)
- it's also possible to save Targa images
- LBADeCOMP now has a better help support. Hold the mouse above
  the control you want information about and then press "F1"
  this also works with menu items
- you can now apply a palette to a imported picture (8bit),
  the program will try to fit the right colors
- you can now open the current directory directory in MS explorer,
  right-click the file explorer and select "open in explorer"
- LBADeCOMP has some sound effects, you can enable this option
  in the setting window. The other tools will get this ASAP.
changed:
- made 2 developer options (which were not available first)
  available.
  - Rip from file: with this you can rip a part from a file
    (decompression included)
  - Decompress LBA2 savegame: this will decompress a LBA2
    savegame. Use this to do some research on LBA2 savegames
- when extracting files from the text.hqr files, the even entries
  will get the .lbt extention and the odd entries the .ldc extention
  when you have smart extention enabled.
- Complete new look of the LBA Reader. You can now view all the text
  in once without selecting offsets.
- you can now actually change the text in the text file, just open a
  text file, select a line and and press <F2>,<ENTER>,<INSERT>
  (or click the "..." button) to edit

1.2.1.5
~~~~~~~
new:
- info button in the about screen: give info about the
  system and gives the version numbers of the diffirent
  components.
- information toolbar in the image viewer. This gives
  information about the dimensions of the image. If you
  hold Ctrl and move the cursor over the image, you'll
  see the color, index of the color in the palette and
  the location of the pixel the cursor is at that moment.
- Build-in palettes in the image viewer. Right-click on the
  palette image to load either the LBA1 or LBA2 game palette.
- First release of LBA Packer. With this tool you can create
  LBA files.
- You can now save a picture to a JPEG file in the Image viewer.
  But I advice you to use the bitmap, because you lose less quality 
  with a bitmap. To save as JPEG use .jpg as extention.
- It's also possible to save the image as a GIF file. To do this
  use .gif as extention. GIF and BMP are equal in quality, but 
  GIF is smaller.
- you can now save a bitmap as 8bit or 24bit (8bit as default)
- you can save palettes as RAW, RIFF or JASC format
  (right-click the palette image)
- you can now also use RIFF palettes (if they have 256 colors)
- new button in LBADeCOMP: Run. When you click on this it will
  extract the selected entry (only one). And then run it (if
  a program is assigned to it)
- LBA packer now supports blank entries as a file. If a file
  has the extention ".blank" and a size of "0" it is interpeted
  as a blank entry
- LBA packer also supports the doubles. If a file has the
  extention ".double" and has the following lines in it:
  number       \\number of dublicate item
  offset	   \\original offset of file (not used, can be any value)
  size         \\size od the dublicate item (used for validation)
- LBADeCOMP can automatilcally create .double and .blank files when
  in developer mode
- LBADeCOMP can not create the Image\Palette batch files (only works
  if smart extention is on)
- Select a control and hit F1 to get info about it
- all LBADeCOMP programs now use a library for their components
  because of this the programs are much smaller. If the programs
  don't run you haven't installed the library, please download it.
changed:
- the toolbars in LBADeCOMP can be switched on and off.
  These settings will be automatically saved.
- improved the reading of the offsets, it's a bit faster
  and gives a estimate number of entries in the beginning
- the output filename is now default lowercase and the numbers
  now get leading zeros (eg. 001, 002...237) so that they'll
  stay in the right order in MS Explorer.
- fixed a serious bug in the major easter egg
- at the un-install also hidden/temporary files will be deleted.
- first notification of "easter eggs"(5) in the LBADeCOMP tools.
- Fixed a bug in the Text viewer, where you'd get a message with
  only a number.
- you can now stop the credits by click on them (about box)
- you can now select if you want to see a summary at the
  end of the extracting
- The voc files from the LBA1 voice files are now correctly
  extracted
- "LBA text viewer" is now called "LBA reader"
- "LBA image viewer" is now called "LBA viewer"
- If you now select "File information" (or press Ctrl+F) in LBADeCOMP
  the program tries to find the right help page that belong to the file.
- extracting is now improved a little, it's fatester when you extract a few 
  files from a very big archive.
- LBA Reader now checks for valid text files (with a little luck)
known buggs/errors:
- the optimized sprites sprites (.lsp) still don't work right.
- the help files are out of date
