SpliceHack 0.8.2

This release contains numerous bugfixes and QOL improvements, as well as some balancing for the changeling race. Note that this save files for 0.8.2 are NOT compatible with 0.8.1.

Full changelog can be viewed in doc/spl-changelog.txt.

SpliceHack 0.8.1

A few fixes:

• Fixed some minor window naming in the windows release.
• Added a pull request by entrez to fix gendered monsters in special levels.
• Fixed riding mark only appearing when pilemark was enabled.

The graphical windows build still appears to be broken. I've been working to hunt it down, but as of yet I have unable to determine the cause, if it is unique to Splice, or if it is something it inhereted from vanilla.

SpliceHack 0.8.0

SpliceHack 0.8.0 has been released!

See spl-changelog.txt for details.

SpliceHack 0.7.1

SpliceHack-0.7.1 Release.

This release differs from the prerelease in relatively few ways:

• A number of extremely critical bug fixes.
• Optimized the code for server play.
• Added Junethack-sepcific content.

Unfortunately, this does break saves, due to some of the updates made for server play optimization.

Good luck, and happy hacking!
