Hi Everyone,

Q-Zandronum 1.4.3 has been released

For those who don't know: 

Q-Zandronum, also known as QZan, is a source port and fork by @geNia. It is based off Zandronum 3.0 and it is focused on improving the netcode and general codebase through various Quality-of-Life additions.

Its main purpose is to serve as the engine for Quake Champions: Doom Edition, but it can be used like any other source port, providing a improved Zandronum experience in the process.
