SuperTuxKart 0.6.1 released

SuperTuxKart version 0.6.1. fixes some minor bugs of the 0.6 release, adds a new kart, a new battle map, and better support for add-on packages. We also release a first add-on package, which contains 7 additional karts and 6 tracks. Some of the tracks and karts in this package are new, some are models that were removed from the main distribution. Note: you need SuperTuxKart 0.6.1 to use the add-on package. Both can be found on our download page.
More extensive changelog is below.

  1. It would be helpful if the addon package had some instructions how to even use it...

  2. Hi, as far as I know you just have to go to the installation folder and extract the files. Possibly you might have to go into the 'data' folder of STK as well, but I think extracting inside e.g."C:/Program Files/SuperTuxKart" should be possible.

    Just ask if you need any more help.

  3. @Arthur: If you could add instructions to STK's native Linux it would be nice.

  4. It's all on the wiki. Besides, nowadays we have this nifty in-game add-on installer. ;)
