 # Changelog
 
+## [1.5.0] - 2026-09-06
+
+### Added
+- Support for modern TMX features: object templates, infinite maps with
+  chunked layers, class properties, Wang sets, editor settings, tileset
+  transformations, embedded and cropped tile images, group layers, parallax,
+  tint colors, zstd-compressed and CSV-encoded layer data and SVG tilesets
+  (by Taz Tatsuno, #4325)
+- The writer now always stamps the current format version and supports CSV
+  encoding, zstd compression and chunked infinite layers (by Taz Tatsuno, #4325)
+- New oblique renderer, rewritten hexagonal renderer, flip flag rendering,
+  group layer opacity and corrected rotation pivot (by Taz Tatsuno, #4325)
+- Added `ROTATED_HEXAGONAL_120_FLAG` (#4315)
+- The `zstd-jni` and `jsvg` dependencies can be excluded by consumers that
+  use neither zstd compression nor SVG tilesets (by Taz Tatsuno, #4325)
+
+### Changed
+- Migrated from `javax.xml.bind` to `jakarta.xml.bind` for Java 21 support,
+  which raises the minimum supported Java version to 11 (by Taz Tatsuno, #4326)
+- Optimized image scaling in `MapObject.getImage` (by Taz Tatsuno, #4327)
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed "Can't find ReflectionNavigator class" error when running tmxviewer
+  (by Taz Tatsuno, #4328)
+- XML escaping, XXE-hardened parsing, errors on truncated or invalid tile
+  data, correct unsigned gid handling and locale-independent number
+  formatting (by Taz Tatsuno, #4325)
+
 ## [1.4.3] - 2025-06-02
