To get myself familiar with the Quake III engine branch used in Alice, which in my assumption should be quite similar to what's used in Ritual's FAKK2, I fixed the published SDK to build with modern C++ compilers.
It didn't turned out to be really hard, other than typical pre-standard C++ incompatibilities I've seen porting HLSDK countless times for modern compilers, there isn't much needed to be done.
And look, it even gets loaded in original Loki Games' port of this game!
The source code is at https://github.com/a1batross/fakk2-sdk
To compile and install (backup the original cgame.so/fgame.so just in case) just run:
```
cd source
CC="cc -m32" CXX="c++ -m32" ./waf configure build install --destdir=path/to/install/bin/x86/glibc-2.1
``` -

Doesn't look like scout. It's quite buggy if I run it through scout. -

@mittorn yeah but it was also updated several times. However, gcc version hasn't changed until hl25 which says:
`GCC: (SteamRT 5.4.0-7.really.6+steamrt1.2+srt2) 5.4.1 20160803`
steamrt 1.2? wtf is that -

hm, it's almost as if some of these maps were intended to have lit water...
...no, of course, they mostly weren't, but soon level designers would be able to easily configure it through worldspawn's key/value settings in a new feature coming to xash3d-fwgs -

So now you can do this
Really like how remapping palette indices worked out, this way it's theoretically possible to draw anything right from UI, not only horizontal stripes. -

In Half-Life, NPC mouth openness updates only once in a while, in original algorithm it collects 10 samples, picking only few sampling points per frame, resulting in updates each 5-6 frames in 60 FPS, thus 10 FPS.
Many years ago, I tried interpolating the mouth to make it smoother, but never showed it to anyone.
So... yay, or nay? -

Some users were very concerned about their microphone glowing LEDs and their operating systems warn about microphone usage right after starting the engine, so I moved capture device opening to svc_voiceinit handler, and closing it in client disconnect, so we never have a microphone device opened if we don't need it.
Opus decoder and encoder still initialized early, though.
