QuakeForge 0.5.99 Beta 1 Released

[taniwha]

After a very long break (too long), I'm very pleased to announce the release of QuakeForge 0.5.99 Beta 1 (will become 0.6 when out of beta).

Details
Download (sorry about the snow less painful.).
Documentation

Known issues:

• Windows: alt-tab when paused doesn't release the mouse (but does when not paused)
• Teleport splash hard to see. Try setting r_particles_nearclip to around 16 (r_particles_style 0 might be of interest, too).
• No "loading" plaque: already fixed in git.
• No help with F1.

[edit]Thanks to scar3crow for the testing.

**Very** nice seeing quakeforge making a new release.

Haven't run-tested anything, but one thing I noticed in the source is that the net layer uses int socket fds: if you intend win64 compatibility you need to switch to some sys_socket_t or similar, which is still int for unix but SOCKET for windows targets, see quakespasm or uhexen2.

Thanks for quakeforge, it has always been my #1 reference for portability.

Ah, thank you! I'll look into it.
