  • ECMWF added to global models albeit a limited free public release of the model including some surface and altitude data at 0.5 deg resolution and 24hr temporal resolution.
  • Bug fixes
  • Many maintenance improvements on stability and speed (Thanks to Didier)

Changes in version 1.1.2 :

  • Mainly bug fixes regarding the saving of settings and a few others
  • New installer system applied now to Mac OS
