14-Oct-2024:

• Common: improved wait command handling, now it will wait exact amount of client/server frames
• Common: allow src and dest buffers to be overlapped in Q_strncpy() for QVM compatibility reasons
• Common: Use nanosleep(2) instead of usleep(3) - usleep(3) was declared obsolete in POSIX.1-2001 and removed in POSIX.1-2008 and nanosleep(2) was recommended to be used instead.
• Server: cache sv_maxclients value to avoid potential crashes caused by VMs changing it at runtime
• Server: save latched sv_pure state to dedicated variable
• Server: suppress false hitch warning during map load
• Server: reworked/optimized gamestate retransmission/acknowledgment
• Server: don't change serverid during map restart
• Server: don't spawn loading clients during map restart
• Server: fix server resource leaks during client reconnect
• Client: rewrote CL_WritePacket() to allow proper packet duplication - which was intended by multiple function calls before
• Client: Strip \cl_aviPipeFormat
• Win32: report actual color bits and correct PFD count
• X11: request alpha bits for >=24 bit color profiles
• Docs: Create quake3e.md, update quake3e.htm
• Vulkan: increase MAX_IMAGE_CHUNKS from 48 to 56
• Vulkan: added missing texture mode setup in GL_SetDefaultState()
• Vulkan: disabled \r_ext_alpha_to_coverage for now due to rendering artifacts on beyond4-wfa map
• Vulkan: do not set transient flag for depth/stencil attachment when bloom (and thus - post-bloom pass) is enabled
• Vulkan: fix screenmap image layout transitions
• Vulkan: re-create swapchain on VK_SUBOPTIMAL_KHR as well
• Vulkan: improve flare visibility test code
• Vulkan: fixed various image layout transition synchronization issues
• Vulkan: applied fixes to some "Best Practices" validation layer errors
• Vulkan: add \r_bloom_threshold_mode and \r_bloom_modulate cvars, similar to OpenGL renderer
• OpenGL: allow all static tcGens/tcMods for VBO/environment mapping (assuming that we have all tcMod corrections applied before)
• Renderers: use glConfig.stencilBits instead of dereferencing \r_stencilbits cvar
• Renderers: apply lightmap texcoord correction only if lightmap is actually set
• Renderers: apply additional lightmap texcoord corrections when needed
• Renderers: do not merge single lightmap
• Filesystem: allow multiple basegames in fs_basegame cvar separated by '/'
• Filesystem: reset fs_basegame cvar to last separated item
• Makefile: fix grep warnings in macOS builds
• macOS: app will search for pk3 inside and next to the app bundle
• Use SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP on macOS
