-In 2023, the network communication between the VAServer and bindings underwent a major rework. As a result, there is no backwards compatibility to previous versions regarding the network communication. For example, controlling a `VAServer` of version v2023a with `VAMatlab` v2022a will not work.
+In 2023 and 2024, respectively, the network communication underwent two major reworks. As a result, there is no backwards compatibility between respective versions as well as to previous versions regarding the network communication. For example, controlling a `VAServer` of version 2024a with `VAMatlab` v2023a will not work. The same holds for version 2023a and 2022a.

 ## Changelog
 
+??? note "v2024a"
+    **Sound-path-based renderers**
+
+    - Now allows changing the default reflection factor in VACore.ini
+    - Enhancement of gain fading between audio blocks
+        - Now uses cosine-squared instead of linear fading
+        - Now also works with Ambisonics spatialization
+    
+    **VANet**
+
+    - Cleanup: removed irrelevant/unusable interface functions, which raised a 'not-implemented' error.
+
+    **VAPython**
+
+    - Got reworked as pure Python package (no C++ bindings anymore)
+    - Now has `NatNetTracking` support
