The GemRB team is proud to announce a new release.

It has been a while since our last release, but plenty of goodies have landed since. This release brings a slew of minor features and fixes, of which a select few are mentioned below. Of those that aren't, a last minute AttackReevaluate fix stands out, since that action is used all the time in AI scripts.

Wait a minute, but where's the promised return of biography editing, you may exclaim. That branch is very much still alive and being worked on, with more than 1000 extra changes. The rewrite just spiralled out of control. Interested users can take a peek at the subviews branch.

You can get the sources and packages from here.

That's Symbian, right? No special app, so unless you just edited the example config without renaming it, there's no need for a back up. As for installation, deinstallation / deletion is recommended, as some leftover files will screw you over.
