Note: This is the last backwards-compatible release before Chimera 0.9.0

Note: The release notes distributed with the installer in this package are outdated. The updated release notes are present here.

This release contains new Unity tools (haptic sphere-casting, VR mimic improvements, new suit demos, & 3D haptics explorer).

It uses somewhat "special" DLLs, so if you encounter any problems, be sure to mention that you are using this release. We have not had any compatibility issues.
