vkQuake 1.31.1 released

A worthwhile update over the last version, especially for the fixes.

As usual contributions came from either Quakespasm or Ironwail in addition to with our own.

Improvements:

  • Windows binaries : added the version number in the executable Properties
  • Removed option Game > Load last save = fast, replaced by the addition of Game > Fast loading = on/off applicable to all loading actions:
    With Fast loading = on, loading the same level over and over become almost instantaneous, even for monster levels, like The Immortal Lock.
  • Library updates
  • Code cleanups

Fixes:

  • Various Linux build fixes (makefile)
  • MiNGW/MSYS2 missing icon
  • Moving Elevators hurting player and monsters, with fixes by @andrei-drexler (sv_gamefix_elevators CVAR) and others
  • Remove Sky_ClipPoly: MAX_CLIP_VERTS hardcoded limit
  • Sound resample compute can overflow with very big sounds
  • Erroneous Vulkan usage crashing MacOS (MoltenVK)
  • Host_error: ed_alloc: no free edicts due to edicts "leak", showing up on big levels in particular.

vkQuake 1.31.3 released

This is very likely the ultimate update of the 1.31 line, bringing some fixes from either Quakespasm or Ironwail.
