QuakeForge 0.7.1a released.

QuakeForge 0.7.1a has been released.

There was a 0.7.1, but before I got to do the announcement, I found a critical bug and thus rolled out 0.7.1a.

Highlights:

• qfcc now supports optimization with -O.
• Dynamic IMTs allowing more customization of the key binding system.
• Fixes for allowing QF to work with the excellent In The Shadows mod by Sock.
• BSP2 support.
• Various bug fixes and build system improvements.
• Can be cross-compiled for ps3-elf and mips-linux.

For more details, see NEWS.

One word of warning for anyone new to QF: it will mess up your config.cfg (I'm working on that currently), so back it up.

Last time I tried Quakeforge, it changed all the particle effects into simple puffy circles and that put me off QF for years. Is it still like that?

[taniwha]

By default, yeah, but if you set r_particles_style to 0, you'll get the traditional particles.

Sadly, 0.7.1 is turning out to be a bit of a train-wreck (particularly for windows).

That said, I'm working on it, so I'll either to a b or even go to 0.7.2 fairly soon.

Let me know when you have a new windows version and I will test it again.
