  QuakeSpasm 0.85.3 (unreleased) (18 September 2010)


  1.  About


  QuakeSpasm is a Quake 1 engine based on the SDL port of FitzQuake.  It
  includes 64bit CPU cupport, a new sound driver, several networking
  fixes, and a few graphical niceities.

  3.  Hints


  o  To disable some changes, use "quakespasm -fitz"

  o  For different sound drivers use "SDL_AUDIODRIVER=DRIVER
     ./quakespasm" , where DRIVER may be alsa, dsp, pulse, esd ...

  o  Shift+Escape draws the Console.

  o  From the console, use UP to browse the command line history, and
     TAB to autocomplete command and map names.

  o  Quakespasm allows loading new games (mods) on the fly with "game
     GAMENAME"
  o  There is currently no music volume support. cd_sdl.c needs
     replacing with cd_linux.c, cd_bsd.c etc..

  o  In windows, alternative CD drives are accessible by "quakespasm
     -cddev F:\" (for example)

   Visit the FitzQuake Homepage <http://www.celephais.net/fitzquake> for
  a full run-down of this engine's features.


  4.  Compiling

  Just extract the source tarball, then

  ______________________________________________________________________
  cd quakespasm-0.85.3
  make
  cp quakespasm /usr/local/games/quake (for eg)
  ______________________________________________________________________


  Compile time options include

  o  make DEBUG=1 for debugging

  o  make SDLNET=1 to enable SDL_net (Otherwise the socket api will be
     used directly)

  o  make SDL_CONFIG=/PATH/TO/SDL-CONFIG for unusual SDL installs

  o  HOME directory support can be enabled via the Misc/homedir_0.patch
     diff
     If for any reason this doesn't work, the project can also be built
     with Codeblocks.  This is a large, free, integrated development
     environment that requires wxWidgets and cmake to install.  The
     process is not for the faint hearted.


  5.  Changes


  5.1.  0.85.3


  o  Fix the "-dedicated" option (thanks Oz) and add platform specific
     networking code (default) rather than SDL_net

  o  Much needed OSX framework stuff from Kristian

  o  Add a persistent history feature (thanks Baker)

  o  Add a slider for scr_sbaralpha, which now defaults to 0.95
     (slightly transparent, allowing for a nicer status bar)

  o  Allow player messages longer than 32 chars

  o  Sockaddr fix for FreeBSD/OSX/etc networking

  o  Connect status bar size to the scale slider

  o  Include an ISNAN (is not-a-number) fix to catch the occassional
     quake C bug giving traceline problems

  o  Enumerate options menus


  o  Add a "prev weapon" menu item (from Sander)

  o  Small fix to Sound Block/Unblock on win32

  o  Lots of code fixes (some from uhexen2)

  o  Sys_Error calls Host_Shutdown

  o  SDLNet_ResolveHost bug-fix allowing connection to ports other than
     26000

  o  sv_main.c (localmodels) Bumped array size from 5 to 6 in order for
     it to operate correctly with the raised limits of fitzquake-0.85

  o  Accept commandline options like "+connect ip:port"

  o  Add OSX Makefile (tested?)


  5.3.  0.85.1
