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?

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.
