On April 2014, after 6 month of first raylib release, raylib 1.1 has been released. This new version presents a
complete internal redesign of the library to support OpenGL 1.1, OpenGL 3.3+ and OpenGL ES 2.0.
A new module named [rlgl](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/master/src/rlgl.h) has been added to the library. This new module translate raylib-OpenGL-style

immediate mode functions (i.e. rlVertex3f(), rlBegin(), ...) to different versions of OpenGL (1.1, 3.3+, ES2), selectable by one define.
[rlgl](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/master/src/rlgl.h) also comes with a second new module named [raymath](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/master/src/raymath.h), which includes

Textures module has grown to support most of the internal texture formats available in OpenGL (RGB565, RGB888, RGBA5551, RGBA4444, etc.),
including compressed texture formats (DXT, ETC1, ETC2, ASTC, PVRT); raylib 1.3 can load .dds, .pkm, .ktx, .astc and .pvr files.

A brand new [camera](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/develop/src/camera.c) module offers to the user multiple preconfigured ready-to-use camera systems (free camera, 1st person, 3rd person).
Camera modes are very easy to use, just check examples: [core_3d_camera_free.c](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/develop/examples/core_3d_camera_free.c) and [core_3d_camera_first_person.c](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/develop/examples/core_3d_camera_first_person.c).

notes on raylib 1.5
-------------------
On June 2016, after 4 months of raylib 1.4 release, arrives raylib 1.5. Probably this new version is the biggest boost of the library ever, lots of parts of the library have been redesigned, lots of bugs have been solved and some **AMAZING** new features have been added.
On July 2016, after 5 months of raylib 1.4 release, arrives raylib 1.5. Probably this new version is the biggest boost of the library ever, lots of parts of the library have been redesigned, lots of bugs have been solved and some **AMAZING** new features have been added.
New platform support: **Oculus Rift CV1**. raylib introduces VR support for one of the most anticipated VR devices in the market.
Supporting Oculus Rift CV1 makes raylib the only (or one of the few) C libraries in the market to support VR out-of-the-box. Additionally, stereo mode rendering has been added to raylib independently of the VR device.
VR support: **Oculus Rift CV1**. raylib supports Oculus Rift CV1, one of the most anticipated VR devices in the market. Additionally, raylib supports simulated VR stereo rendering, independent of the VR device; it means, raylib can generate stereo renders with custom head-mounted-display device parameteres, that way, any VR device in the market can be **simulated in any platform** just configuring device parameters (and consequently, lens distortion). To enable VR is [extremely easy](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/develop/examples/core_oculus_rift.c).
New materials system:
New materials system: now raylib supports standard material properties for 3D models, including diffuse-ambient-specular colors and diffuse-normal-specular textures. Just assign values to standard material and everything is processed internally.
New lighting system:
New lighting system: added support for up to 8 configurable lights, supported light types are **point light**, **directional light** and **spot light**. Just create a light, configure it and raylib manages render internally for every 3d object using standard material.
Complete gamepad support on Raspberry Pi
Complete gamepad support on Raspberry Pi: Gamepad system has been completely redesigned. Now multiple gamepads can be easily used and configured and gamepad data is read and processed in raw mode in a second thread.
Redesigned physics module: physac
Redesigned physics module: physac module has been converted to header only and usage has been simplified. Performance has also been singnificantly improved, now physic objects now are managed internally in a second thread.
Up to 8 new code examples have been added to show the new raylib features and the usage of multiple raylib modules as standalone libraries (rlgl, audio).
Audio chiptunese support and mixing channels: Added support for module audio music (.xm, .mod) loading and playing. Multiple mixing channels are now also supported. All this features thanks to @kd7tck amazing work.
Lots of code changes (more than 250 commits) and lots of hours of hard work have concluded in this amazing new raylib 1.5.
This new version is so massie that is difficult to list all the improvements, most of raylib modules have been reviewed and [rlgl](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/develop/src/rlgl.c) module has been completely redesigned to accomodate to new material and lighting systems. You can check [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/blob/develop/CHANGELOG) file for a more detailed list of changes.
Up to 8 new code examples have been added to show the new raylib features and also some samples to show the usage of [rlgl]() and [audio]() raylib modules as standalone libraries.
Lots of code changes (more than 300 commits) and lots of hours of hard work have concluded in this amazing new raylib 1.5.
