Previous 3.6.14 RC7 Release ThreadImportant!!As always, you need OpenAL installed. Linux and OS X come with it but Windows users will need to get Creative's
OpenAL installer.
Important!!Also, since the internal code linking for TrackIR was revised, an external DLL is now required for FSO to use TrackIR functions.
The following DLL is simply unpacked in to you main FreeSpace2 root dir.
TrackIR is only supported on Windows.

ShadersIn order to leverage changes in the shader code since 3.6.12, these are to be used to over-ride the MediaVPs shaders (place in mediavps_3612/data/effects) or in use for any mods.
Includes the Animated/Cloakmap shaders as well as optimized pixel lighting fragment shaders.

WINDOWS BuildsInferno BuildsIf you don't know which one to get, get the third one (no SSE). If you don't know what SSE means, read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_SIMD_ExtensionsYou can use freely available tools like
CPU-Z to check which SSE capabilities your CPU has.
