JJ2+ v5.5 released

Source:: JCF announcement

A new version of JJ2+ has arrived! It’s a relatively big one this time – some highlights:

JJ2+ is now distributed with an installer, which will also automatically make the necessary .ini changes for you (and do other useful things).
Various changes that give people hosting servers more command-line options and make servers send more data to the list server.
The list server “message of the day” is now displayed in the server browser, if available.
Speed improvements, especially for levels with many lighting effects.
A less obnoxious spectator mode interface.
As usual, lots of bugfixes.

The full list of changes is in the changelog. Download the new version here!

I always assume there’s also levels showing what’s new in these new version and I always fail to find the new levels, if there are any.

wiivn: Not all releases add or change features that would benefit from an example level – no way to show the changes to the interface in this one via a level, for example. If an example level has been added or updated we’ll usually make a note of it in the changelog or release announcement.
