Everything that was revealed in the interview, as well as some "secrets" that he chose to keep. Well worth the small fee

NoLimits 1.6 has been released!  The update is garnering rave reviews from those who have already downloaded and started playing with it.  I have just downloaded it and will play with it sometime tonight after I take care of some chores around the dorm.  If anyone is wondering whether it is worth the money, the concensus is that it most definitely is.  If you're still a bit skeptical, it costs less than an off-the-rack game, so just risk it!  I am sure that you will not regret the purchase.

Here's a list of the features the game had before:

Top Features:
- Ride ultra-realistic roller coasters
- Choose between more than 65 great premade tracks
- Build your own rollercoaster with the Track Editor
- Create mountains and lakes with the Terraformer
- Choose between 18 different track-styles
- Play the ride operator and dispatch the trains
- Choose different environments (fog, sunset, etc...)
- Include 3DS scenery objects in your coaster tracks
- Ride Roller Coaster Tycoon1 tracks in 3D (only Windows)
- Optimized for high frame rates

I played around with the motion blur and WOW!  Rocket coasters look absolutely AMAZING if you turn on the motion blur.  This one track I made, The Forgotten, was just a streak of goodness when I turned on the auto-blur.  The blur has 3 settings which are off, on, and auto.  The Auto setting kicks on when the train hits around 50 MPH or so and wow.  That, along with the tracking camera is worth the money.

On top of that, the sim runs with a higher framerate, while looking a lot better!  Simply amazing!

Just got it, much higher detail, worth the $15 I'd say.
