We have made available the final version of MegaPOV 1.2.  Binaries for 
Windows, MacOS, Linux(x86) as well as the source code for Unix and MacOS 
are available for download on:

http://megapov.inetart.net/

Note the Windows package now includes both the GUI and console version 
in one package.  We also prepared a Linux binary package for AMD64 which 
is like the normal binary package but will only work on AMD64 machines. 
  A Windows source package will follow in the next days.

Changes compared to the beta:

- added fix for the problem of passing macro parameters by reference.
- bugfix for RAD_SAMPLES_RANDOMIZE_PATCH (thanks to Michael Andrews).

What's new in version 1.2:

- Area light trace level control
- Bicubic interpolation for image maps
- New features in the mechanics simulation patch
- Custom tone mapping feature
- Radiosity improvements
- Several bug fixes
