Main changes in 0.92.5 is alchemy code (optional), bug fixes, and new attack
code (more or less does the same thing, cleaner design, also optional)
A few quick notes: In order to be able to ever get this out, most all
fixes received after around July 4 have been filed away. I will go through
them and apply them when I get the chance. It was just becoming a bit
difficult to try to package everything up and make sure it seemed somewhat
stable while always putting patches in.
If you want to re-send your patches in (diff relative to 0.92.5), it would
be nice, not required. As said, I will go through the old archive I have
and put those in at some point.
So on to the real release information:
There are three separate tar archives in the Crossfire 0.92.5 distribution:
sums (bsd) filename
25918 723 crossfire-0.92.5.arch.tar.gz
60296 2011 crossfire-0.92.5.maps.tar.gz
54672 1561 crossfire-0.92.5.tar.gz
crossfire-0.92.5.tar.gz contains the actual program code. See the CHANGES
file in this archive for everything that has changed. It also contains
pre-made archetypes and image files, so that the
crossfire-0.92.5.arch.tar.gz file is not needed.
crossfire-0.92.5.arch.tar.gz contains the unpacked archetype (arch)
directory. This file is not needed if you just want to compile the games
and play. The contents of this archive is used to create the archetypes,
bmaps, font, and X PixMap (XPM) files. You only need it if you want to add
new archetypes, mess around with the existing ones, or recreate some files.
The main changes are those for the alchemy code and archetype additions for
the kundi maps.
crossfire-0.92.5.maps.tar.gz contains all the maps. The main addition
are the kundi/Lake Country maps, and a few minor fixes.
There is not a new client package or new eutl package - there have not
been any changes since 0.92.4.
FOR FIRST TIME USERS: You will need the crossfire-0.92.5.tar.gz and
crossfire-0.92.5.maps.tar.gz file. You do not need the
crossfire-0.92.5.arch.tar.gz file.
