Beside a lot of small improve­ments this new release improves the graph­ics capa­bil­i­ties, with a focus on Flash fea­tures used by games. Currently there are lot of bugs in lightspark but we can hope it will get better with time because adobe dropped further flash support for linux. New Version is only available for Ubuntu 12.04 Precise/Linux Mint 13.

  • Enable RTMP sup­port by default, requires librtmp
  • Fixed sup­port for IEvent­Dis­patcher imple­men­ta­tion pat­tern
  • Improved seri­al­iza­tion robust­ness
  • Improved matrix han­dling
  • Imple­ment string and name­space pool­ing to reduce mem­ory con­sump­tion
