New Server Release on 24-Jan-2005, v1.7.0

[Leaf]

(From the Crossfire Announcement mailing list..)

Crossfire 1.7.0 has been released.

There are lots of more minor changes. List of more minor changes:
Numerous bug fixes - should be much more stable now.
DM improvements.
New objects.

Only the bigworld maps are up on sourceforge - this is the only mapset under active development - the old smallworld maps are still in CVS, and older versions still available for download. As part of this, the map archive has lost its 'big' name.

A new release of the client should be released shortly, as well as perhaps a new doc archive.

crossfire-1.7.0.tar.gz contains the server code with prebuilt archetype and image files.

crossfire-1.7.0.arch.tar.gz contains the unpacked archetype changes. This is not needed if you only want to compile the server and play the game. Various fixes, as well as new archetypes.

crossfire-1.7.0.maps.tar.gz contains the map distribution - this is the bigworld map. New maps have been added, as well as verious fixes.

FOR FIRST TIME USERS: You will only need the appropriate server, the map file and client file. You do not need the arch file. You may wish to get a copy of the doc file.

If you just want to play the game at some remote server, you need the client and perhaps the image archive file.

Crossfire is avaible on the following ftp sites

Primary:
ftp://ftp.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/crossfire

Secondary:
ftp://ftp.real-time.com/pub/games/crossfire

The initial upload of this release is only made to sourceforge - it should show up on the mirrors shortly.
