New Release: BZFlag 2.4.12 "Silence is Golden"

Post by blast »

We are pleased to announce the release of BZFlag 2.4.12. Platform binaries and the source code are available for download using the following links:

Windows: https://download.bzflag.org/bzflag/wind ... 2.4.12.exe
macOS: https://download.bzflag.org/bzflag/maco ... -macOS.zip
Source Code: https://download.bzflag.org/bzflag/source/2.4.12/

This release had a few additional features and some fixes. There were also quite a few additions to the bzfs plugin API.
  • Multisampling (anti-aliasing) now works on all platforms with SDL
  • The permission for running "/poll set" is no longer assigned by default
  • The macOS build uses a newly released version of SDL that fixes an issue with retina macs when running in a scaled resolution
  • It is possible to silence all unregistered players in your client by silencing - (the minus sign or hyphen), similar to how silencing * (asterisk) silences all players. Additionally, the /silence and /unsilence commands both work correctly now and support both special cases.
The full Changelog is also available.

Enjoy!

Nice work gang. I've been wanting this for years. Thanks!
If you think I was mean, please tell me. I was actually going for NASTY!
