redesigned entire animation interpolation system (can lerp between independently playing framegroups)
redesigned animation scene lookup in model and sprite rendering to use a single system
added a simple clientside effect system (meant for playing sprite explosion animations entirely on the client, with very nice interpolation and framerate control)

reorganized fractalnoise code, now behaves more correctly
stripped out qsg_version stuff, replaced by pr_checkextension and extensions have changed completely (extensions are documented in dpextensions.qc in DP mod and release zips)
made skin and sprite mipmapping optional (r_mipskins cvar, r_mipsprites cvar), saves about 32% of texture memory if disabled
rewrote texture management system (again), now uses flags to specify texture attributes (all textures without the PRECACHE flag are uploaded only when first used, conserves huge amounts of memory), and is cleaner code
r_precachetextures cvar controls how PRECACHE texture flag is used (0 = never precache, 1 = use PRECACHE flag, 2 = always precache)
changed way text filtering mode is decided
now requires vertex array support (standard in OpenGL 1.1 so this is not a problem)
takes advantage of GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array extension (no speed gain for my Geforce2, may help other people)
reverted to GL transforms for models (no speed gain for my Geforce2, may help other people)
gl_transform cvar controls whether to use GL transforms (1) or software transforms (0), could not measure any speed difference in my testing

zlib support into quake), these will allow dp to use compressed paks :) The
rest will be coming as soon as I get everything working.

Coordinates are now floats in network protocol (bloats it yes, but the accuracy allows unlimited map size, and smoother movement at very high framerates)
prints dump of last 32 svc messages in packet when client encounters unknown svc (corrupt or mis-parsed network stream)
some aesthetic cleanup of tempentity parsing
rewrite of COM_FileBase
default gl_lightmaprgba to 1 (driver speedup (data bloat, but drivers are often more optimized for it), thought I defaulted it to 1 all along, but apparently not)
model names no longer use COM_FileBase (thus they are the full name, like "progs/blah.mdl" rather than "blah", "maps/start.bsp" instead of "start", etc)
fixed bugs in model colormapping, and added external skin texture support (example: progs/blah.mdl_0_normal.tga and progs/blah.mdl_0_glow.tga, pants and shirts are also supported)
support for textures inside HL maps, and the transparent color has been fixed (HL checks for pure blue, not index 255)
default r_dynamicparticles to 1 (light smoke/blood)
improvement in angled corner sticking situations (still get a little bump as you pass through, but not actually stuck)
fixed rotation support in MOVETYPE_FOLLOW, now works perfectly

improved COM_LoadFile error messages
added COM_ToLowerString and COM_ToUpperString
.zym model support (not quite complete, in development)
unfinished transition to hardware model transforms (not used yet)
changed polylists to draw 5+ point polygons as GL_POLYGON instead of GL_TRIANGLE_FAN (I thought I had reverted to GL_POLYGON a long time ago... strange) for a minor speedup
new explosion effect (no particles)
reverted to lightmapped dynamic lighting effects (vertex hybrid still available as r_dlightmaps 0)
extreme speed improvements in which wall polygons are lit
minor optimization to lightmap building (memset to clear blocklights)
added and disabled texture caching to disk (it turned out to be a slowdown and a massive waste of space, but kept in source form incase it is ever useful)
much improved missing QC function errors (most notably think)
partial redesign of the skin colormapping engine (not used yet)
more consistent light falloff on different objects
created and scrapped a new particle explosion effect (way too fillrate intensive), superseded by the new explosion effect

made console scrolling not subject to slowmo time scaling
some whitespace changes/cleanup
moved some registervariable definitions around
optional new worldnode function (r_newworldnode, defaults to off), very different approach, minimal speed differences... sigh
added backface culling on surfaces (r_nobacks, defaults to off), barely a gain
in worldnode, made 'trivial inclusion' case for all children nodes of a completely successful CullBox test, defaults to off because it was no speed gain even on the most complex maps I could find
readability cleanup and minor speedup in lightmap conversion
added host_minfps (if framerate drops below this it will be slowmo, this replaces quake's hardcoded 10fps limit)
added host_maxfps (limit your framerate if desired, defaults to 1000, this does affect timedemo)
improved slowmo behavior
optimized out most vec3_origin uses (created VectorNegate and VectorClear for this reason)
fixed VectorDistance (old definition didn't work correctly, but never got used anyway)
darkened blood trails a bit
split R_DrawParticles into R_MoveParticles and R_DrawParticles (for speed profiling reasons)
fix for extremely rare and probably unnoticable bug in particle compacter
