I noticed the main page post was updated with the news of build 100, but the osx package wasn't updated. Is there something wrong with the osx package?
Well, I'm not sure but it seems to be a positive point to me, thank you !!
For the Russian site, it's a good start, I give all my congrats and encouragement .

A little bit offtopic:
>>sorry no osx-build, the buildslave is broken, we still need help / maintainers
maybe you can fix it and be maintainer?

The technique used to relink the libraries doesn't work which is why it fails, Maybe it did in 10.6 but not anymore. It's some pretty complicated bash scripting, and I simply have no idea how to fix it. I use a utility called dylibbundler to do the same thing. I'm more then happy to crank out builds though.

I'd be very happy to see a RC + fast release now, or a release ~straight from develop. BA testing games last night went very well and the few bugs we found have already been fixed. Disclaimer, idk about other games.

(or a release branch...)

What's the deal with the weapondefs error spam in 99+ releases? Things like this:

The engine warns you about tags it isn't familiar with.
You can clear them in the files or in _post.

I think it may be time for a release/RC as well.

Those are weapondef tags that have been deprecated/removed (mostly long ago) and no longer have any effect.

There were no such warnings up to version 99.0, now there are tonnes of them. So there is for example no "beamlaser" tag?

Yes, BeamLaser is a weapon type, and not a tag.

FYI, the 'Download' page still points to Spring 98.

Does this mean I need to go and dig any of these tags out of my defs? if so is there a list of the proper replacement tags?

No replacements needed. These tags were obsoleted a long time ago. For example:

renderType is made completely obsolete by weaponType
renderType being made obsolete also has the effect of making beamweapon tag obsolete (because beamlaser and lasercannon are separate weapontypes now).

*****These tags*****
dropped
vlaunch
beamlaser
isshield
beamweapon
ballistic
lineofsight (only ever used for emg)
manualbombsettings (this tag was a horrible idea in the first place)

*****are no longer relevant because of weapontype*****

ballistic depreciated in 77b1 (use gravityAffected)

color and color2 were supplanted by rgbColor and rgbColor2

Tags either never worked or were backwards-compat'ed via weapondefs_post: https://github.com/spring/spring/blob/d ... st.lua#L74

If you keep your units/weapondefs in the "standard" lua table format, you can use my unitdefs_post baking stuff, or some modification of it, to remove/change/replace unwanted tags en masse. viewtopic.php?f=14&t=33444
