BZFlag version 2.0.14 "This isn't the release you are looking for", is the next maintenance version of the BZFlag game for Windows, Apple OSX, and Linux. It will be released sometime after 02/15/2010. It is being released primarily to fix a number of small issues that have been found in 2.0.12, and to replace the fonts due to licensing issues. The version is also being used to provide a set of binary updates for Windows and OSX, most notably support for Intel based Macintosh computers.

The version contains no new major features, but does have a few bugfixes and back-ports from Version 3.
