  • The alternate lighting of the player’s weapon may now be disabled using the new r_altlighting CVAR.
  • The alternate lighting of the player’s weapon is now slightly lighter.

  • Whether Windows 10 is the Home edition or not is now shown in the console at startup.
  • The revision number of sdl2.dll is now shown in the console at startup.
  • The default of the vid_windowsize CVAR is now 768x480, giving the window a 16:10 aspect ratio.
  • All liquid sectors are now slightly lower.
  • BOOM elevators no longer shudder when they move.
  • The liquid swirl animation is no longer applied to flats using the SLIME09 texture.
  • The liquid swirl animation is now applied to flats using the SLIME05 texture.
