[Cirilo Bernardo <cirilo.bernardo@xxxxxxxxx>]

 For now you should set an environment variable named KISYS3DMOD
to point to the top directory of your 3D model files; previously this was
[installation path]\lib\packages3d - after that the software should behave
as it used to.

 The 3D model path resolution is fundamentally broken and is currently
being overhauled, but the improvements will be in the next release, not
this one.
