RELEASE NOTES:

Do not copy over scripts or configuration files from an old version!

The Blood (gore) and Jukebox features require integration of an optional mod now.

If you want to enable the following features, you MUST download the OPTIONAL MODIFICATIONS too:
- Blood (Gore)
- Camouflage Uniforms (playercontrol.cfg)
- Jukebox
- Long Range Rifles
- Map Vote Thumbnails
- MeatBot Integration (serversetting.cfg)
- Modern weapons (weaponcontrol.cfg)

Do not turn on these features unless you have the required optional modifications downloaded, integrated and uploaded to the fs_game folder on your server. If you fail to do so, the features will not work properly and (most likely) crash your server!
Instructions on how to enable the optional mods are included in the archive.

If you put more than 64 maps on the server (use the map rotation stacker feature for that), the map name will not display right. It will display the long name, like mp_gob_rats, instead of Gob Rats. There is an arena file limit in the game that we have no control over. The server will work though.

The cinematic intro is a last minute addition which has not been tested thoroughly. If you experience startup, lockup or timing problems (client side), please disable this feature in miscfeatures.cfg, and try again.

Some of the modern weapons models are still misaligned. Nothing we can do about it.

Hope you all enjoy it!
