  * New upstream version
    General:
    + Switched to Creative Commons license for media assets.
    + Added full out-of-the-box gamepad support (XInput on Windows, SDL on
    Linux and OS X).
    + The engine automatically lowers the frame rate to 24 FPS and enables
    sleep state when the game is minimized.
    + Multi-threading improvements for the following; fixed race conditions,
    reduced latency and the amount of context switches.
    + .pk3 files explicitly named as "pure" are now preferred to different
    .pk3 files.
    + Restricted downloads of binary modules and "pure" content to official
    Warsow web mirror.
    + Greatly reduced memory footprint for fonts (especially for CJK).
    + Pressing Escape key during the map load or connection set-up will now
    cancel the process much quicker.
    + New high resolution "flat" icon.
    + Maximum refresh rate now defaults to 250 fps.
    + It is now possible to pause demo playback at the end of a demo file,
    instead of dropping to main menu (see "demo" command help).
    + Added "flipped view" mode, set "cl_flip" to "1" to enable.
    + Use HTTPS for secure authentication to matchmaker.

    Renderer:
    + 30% to 50% overall performance improvement.
    + Greatly reduced VRAM footprint for textures.
    + Added support for texture arrays, used for lightmaps.
    + Added KTX texture format support.
    + Enabled binary cache for GLSL programs to speed up startup time by
    default now.
    + Enabled multi-threading to speed up map loading by default now.
    + Curved meshes are now optimized to remove excessive polygons.
    + Changed rendering order so that the sky is now rendered after world
    geometry to minimize overdraw.
    + Fixed infinite far clipping plane calculations.
    + The renderer now queries the operating system for available screen
    resolutions.
    + Shadowmaps now account for normals of geometry they are cast on, making
    them less prone to be visible through walls and ceilings.
    + Added "stencilTest" shader keyword.
    + Added per map colour correction support. Toggle-able with
    cg_colorCorrection 0/1, maps can define colorCorrection key
    in worldspawn to use color correction profile.
    - Removed "vid_mode", "vid_customwidth" and "vid_customheight" console
    variables in favour of "vid_width" and "vid_height" for video
    modesetting.

    award). -See above-.
    + Added sounds for Lasergun, Electrobolt and Instagun impacts.
    + New spawn points selection algorithm: returns the furthest point to
    which there's less than 4 points on the map; otherwise it returns to a

    ammo.
