1.Renegade has been changed so that it wont look for *.dep files anymore (it looks for something else).
This cuts loading time right down.
2.Renegade has been changed to output PNG screenshots instead of TGA (using the well-tested LIBPNG library), this means you dont need a seperate program to convert your screenshots anymore.
Although its impossible to tell from just the image, http://www.n00bstories.com/image.view.php?id=1352131339 is a screenshot I took via the new code 
Also, there are new console commands that server owners (and those writing server tools) can use:
Display current map name
Display current mod package name
Display the map at a given index in the map list
Display the index within the list of the current map
Change the map at a given index in the map list
Display the current radar mode
Play a music track for all players (obviously if they dont have bhs.dll and the music file, it wont work)
Stop all music playing for all players (again if they dont have bhs.dll it wont work)
Play a music track for a specific player (obviously if they dont have bhs.dll and the music file, it wont work)
Stop all music playing for a specific player (again if they dont have bhs.dll it wont work)
Display the current version of bhs.dll installed on the server
Display the current mine limit
Display the count of mines for a given team
Eject a given player from whatever vehicle they are in
Play a 3d sound for a given team (this was going to be in 2.0 but didnt get in in time, it works now)
Display an emoticon for a given player (like the radio command icons except no sound or text display and you can specify the w3d file to display)
I am also working on implementing these console commands (they may make 2.1 or they may be in a later version)
Display the current player limit
Change the current player limit
Display the time remaining
Change the time remaining/time limit
