Version 2.05 of The Dark Mod has not been released yet.
See the roadmap on our bugtracker.
AI
- grayman Reduced the amounts added to the stealth score when an AI spots the player and almost immediately ramps up to Combat.

Coding
- duzenko and nbohr1more The lightgem calculation has been substantially optimized
1) Pixel Pack Buffers used to transfer lightgem images to the CPU 2) Only lights "the player is inside of" will render to the lightgem 3) All noshadows surfaces except the lightgem surface excluded from the lightgem render 4) tdm_lg_split optimization is on by default 5) New tdm_lg_interleave_min setting allows you to define the minimum FPS where the tdm_lg_interleave optimization will start working
- duzenko Initial code support for uncapped FPS (com_fixedTic 1)
- duzenko Optimize Skybox rendering by changing it's render order (takes better advantage of hierarchical-z)
- duzenko Change vproj settings to allow (MSVC 2013) Windows XP optimized builds

- nbohr1more light entities now respect the nospecular argument and can more easily be used for simulated radiosity (bounce lights)
- nbohr1more func_emitter now supports lod_bias so mappers can increase\decrease particle density based on the Object Detail slider
