MMR update #36

Not a great deal done this week on the project (most of my time was spent on LAN). Hopefully I'll have more time this week to progress a lot more on LAN and to fix some outstanding bugs.

A name in parenthesis and in bold is the finder of the bug/quirk. Thanks to all, I really do appreciate your time and support. Cheers!

  • darkness mode updated;
  • no longer uses a 2D render target
