Ok, I know I keep saying this, but the next snapshot IS imminent. I have resolved almost all the issues resulting from the change to dynamic library loading. I had a lot of unforseen problems, such as the issues with STL classes and DLLs, and a fair amount of problems with Release builds (I had to turn off automatic inlining of constructors otherwise the STL problem occurred again). These were particularly problematic because I couldn’t debug them, but I tracked them down eventually.

I have only one remaining bug to fix: the ‘Bsp’ demo currently hangs in fullscreen mode (all the other demos are fine in FS mode, and Bsp works fine in windowed mode), which is puzzling but I hope to resolve it tomorrow evening. I’ll then do another release after updating the documentation (of course, CVS-types can get it right now).

The demo release will be a smaller .zip this time because all the engine is in shared dlls – each demo is now only 70k instead of the 900k static-linked versions. 8)
