New mouse code
Adjustable FOV, with automatic expansion for widescreen
Missing features in OpenGL restored, including specular highlights and the ability to control mipmapping
Cockpit actually works in widescreen, unlike InjectD3
Faster iteration when many missions are present.
Smoother UI (FPS limit raised to 60)
OpenAL sound system with no crackling and environment reverb support.
text scaling for the HUD.
Many bugfixes
