Spearmint 0.3 adds new features and extends the mod APIs. See https://clover.moe/spearmint for downloads.
Spearmint 0.3 is not backward compatible with Spearmint 0.2 VMs or renderers. The network protocol number was changed from 4 to 5 in order to separate Spearmint 0.3 game servers from previous versions.
