Unless otherwise specified in a config file, every model (md2 or md3)
tries to load skin.jpg, skin.png, ../skin.jpg and ../skin.png (in that
order). This commit silences the errors if some of those attempts fail.
There is still an error message, if none of the four files can be found.
The commit also deletes five identical skin.jpg and places one in ../
It fixes the problem, that during spectating in 1st person view,
when spectated player collided (for example with wall) and crouched,
then his crouches weren't visible for player1.
Earlier if player held grenade in the hands and other player
connected to server and started to spectate him, then this second
player always saw assault rifle stats on the HUD as previously
selected weapon. It happens, because new client doesn't know, what
was previous weapon of players on the server, which didn't switch
yet weapon after its connection, so GUN_ASSAULT is set by default.
So if first player used for e.g. sniper rifle, then displayed ammo
stats were 0/0. Now then are displayed stats of primary weapon.
enlargearchslopeselections
If the variable is set to 1, after placing an arch or a slope, the
selection is enlarged, so that the arch or slope can be changed by
vdelta increments (for example, to raise an arch in 1/4 cube increments).
This is also the classic behaviour.
If the variable is set to 0 (which is now default), the selection remains
unchanged. This way, for example, the arch can be raised or lowered by
regular cube increments.
The arch menu allows changing the setting and also contains a script to
enlarge the selections once.
pushselections
New script to store the positions of all current selections. Can be used
repeatedly. To restore the selections, type "popselections".
enlargevdeltaselections
Enlarges all selections by one cube in x- and y- direction, to change a
selection from the "cube area" to the "vdelta area".
If an argument is given, it is used as increment value, so, for example
"enlargevdeltaselections -1" undoes a previous enlargement.

The arch menu now allows
* editing all vertices instead of only half of them, for non-symmetrical
arches
* deleting saved custom arches
* using custom arches for other widths than what they were created for
* measuring an arch on a map and creating a prefab of it
Scripts:
av_measure
"echo (av_measure)" prints the list of vdelta values of a selected arch.
Only works as expected, if the selection is only 1 cube wide. To use the
measurements to create a width 8 arch, select 8x1 cubes under the arch
to copy and type "av 8 (av_measure)". Or use the menu.
av width-1 vdelta_list
One of the oldest scripts of the game (and because of that, the first
argument stayed "arch width minus one", for compatibility reasons).
Creates a prefab arch of the desired width. If the list has exactly
as many entries as required, all of them are used to create the prefab -
this is the way the script has always worked.
If there are too few or too many elements in the list, the script will
try to take half the required values from the list and mirror the other
half to create a symmetrical arch. This way, a list can be used for
slightly wider or narrower archs. Or use the menu.
The menu lists all prefab arches and allows to edit them with sliders.
Arches can be saved and restored.
"archvertex" now returns the old value of the vertex, and if the vertex
argument is omitted, doesn't change it.
enumalias prefix
Lists all persistent aliases that start with prefix. Returns a table
with two entries per alias: 1) full name and 2) name without prefix

The edit protocol now allows the following commands in multiplayer:
arch, slope, edittag, edittagclip, selectionrotate, selectionflip
also:
mapenlarge has been limited to size 10 in multiplayer
entitiy undelete in multiplayer has been fixed
SV_EDITS, SV_EDITD and SV_EDITE are to be cleaned up with a protocol bump
DOCREF arch slope edittag edittagclip selectionrotate selectionflip
undolevel <level>
Returns the number of undo steps that can be undone. If argument "level"
is given, as many steps are undone, until "level" steps remain.
Example, during editing:
echo (undolevel)
prints number of previous editing steps, for example "55"
... do some editing ...
undolevel 55
undoes all changes to restore the previous state (if that state
is still in memory... keep in mind, undo-space is limited, see
"undomegs" parameter)
Unless memory limits delete states, undolevel commands can be undone
with "redo".

The mapper has now the choice to disable several graphics features on
the client (for his map only, of course). The overrides are stored in
the map header.
mapoverride_nowaterreflect
If "1", water reflection is disabled. Useful, when odd water colours
are used to emulate other liquids that are not supposed to be that
reflective.
mapoverride_limitwaveheight
If "1", waveheight is capped at 0.1 max. Useful for small water
areas (like puddles), where higher waves would look weird.
mapoverride_nostencilshadows
If "1", stencil shadows are disabled. On clients, where stencil shadows
are otherwise enabled, blob shadows are used instead. If shadows are
disabled anyway, they stay disabled. Useful for dim maps, where hard
shadows make no sense.
The player is free to ignore any of those overrides:
ignoreoverride_nowaterreflect
If "1", mapoverride_nowaterreflect is ignored and regular client
settings are used.
ignoreoverride_limitwaveheight
If "1", mapoverride_limitwaveheight is ignored, and "waveheight" is
used unchanged.
ignoreoverride_nostencilshadows
If "1", mapoverride_nostencilshadows is ignored.
DOCREF mapoverride_nowaterreflect ignoreoverride_nowaterreflect

also: more stuff in the map settings menu
getmaptimestamp fmt
Returns the "last written" timestamp of the current map in the requested
format. If fmt starts with "U", the time is given as UTC, otherwise
as local time. If fmt is empty, or not given or just the "U", the format
defaults to "YYYYMMDD_hh.mm.ss". Use "%c" to get something nicer.
