Pushed an update with the following changes (added these to the OP as well):
  • Add hud_fastswitch and hud_weaponselect to the Fortress Options "HUD" section
  • Revert back to the 2.4 menu background because it was pretty cool
  • Remove the map guide menu and make the Flythrough button go directly to the flythrough
  • Remove the objective icon on the flag for defenders in IvD/AvD maps (it always points to the cap point that needs to be defended instead)
  • Remove nailgun from sniper
  • Make the sniper rifle use nails to avoid shared ammo between sniper rifle/autorifle
  • Fix unicode character support in VGUI/HUD elements
  • Add Spanish translation by VMX and Firefox11
  • Add (incomplete) Russian localization by Gordon
  • Add Portuguese (BR) translation by Gemini Saga
  • Improve HUD font: add Latin-1 Supplement and other missing chars (adds things like custom accented chars, #, &, $, ~, etc)
  • Remove ff_push
  • Re-add ff_cornfield
  • Revert all IvD maps that used the time-limited-round-based system to the default IvD system (only switch teams after all caps have been captured)
  • Add a timer on the HUD that reflects how long security is down for on all security maps
  • Fix materials/ff/ff08_sign_up_green material using the yellow texture instead of the green one
  • Fixed the glass material in ff_dm
  • Changed the team names in ff_dm to something more appropriate
  • Fix conc speed being limited for too long after using a jump pad (https://github.com/fortressforever/f...ever/issues/80)
  • Added sparks/dust to the feet of rampsliders (cl_rampslidefx cvar for toggling the effects on/off, and cl_rampslidefx_* cvars for controlling how it looks/behaves)
  • Generate <classname>.cfg/userconfig.cfg files at runtime if they don't exist
  • Add hud_weaponselect cvar (briefly shows the weapon select menu whenever switching weapons when hud_fastswitch is enabled; defaulted to enabled)
  • Default hud_fastswitch to 1
  • Remove the map guide menu as it has never been utilized
  • Make HH explosive grenades (frag/mirv) work like they do in TFC (HHing a gren now simply adds 1000 speed in the direction that you're currently moving (or 950 speed straight up if you're not moving at all)
  • Lua: Fix entity:SetFriction() not working on players
  • Cap jump pad + conc horiz and vert speed separately
  • Set jump pad horiz boost to 768 (was 1024 in 2.46)
  • Optimise Lua HUD network messages (send a number ID over the network rather than a string)
  • Lua: Add player_onuse callback
  • Allow bounced rails to collide with their shooter
  • Lua: Add global GetPlayers function (returns a table (array) of all players on the server)
  • Lua: Remove luabind's 'class' implementation because it seems to be broken
  • Lua: Add IsJumpPad/CastToJumpPad
  • Lua: Add IsEntity
  • Lua: Majorly improve Lua's ability to interact with sentryguns

    Player functions added to get the player's buildables (or nil if they're not built):

    player:GetSentryGun()
    player:GetDispenser()
    player:GetDetpack()
    player:GetJumpPad()

    Sentry Gun functions added:

    sg:SetLevel(int level) // sets the level (does not play upgrade sounds)
    sg:Upgrade() // upgrades to the next level
    sg:Repair(int cells) // adds health based on the number of cells
    sg:AddAmmo(int shells, int rockets) // adds ammo
    sg:RocketPosition() // returns the Vector position of where rockets are fired from
    sg:MuzzlePosition() // returns the Vector position of where bullets are fired from
    sg:GetRockets() // number of rockets the SG has
    sg:GetShells() // number of shells the SG has
    sg:GetHealth() // amount of health the SG has
    sg:SetRockets(int rockets)
    sg:SetShells(int shells)
    sg:SetHealth(int health)
    sg:GetMaxRockets()
    sg:GetMaxShells()

    sg:GetEnemy() // gets the target of the SG (CBaseEntity)
    sg:SetEnemy(CBaseEntity enemy)
    sg:GetVecAiming() // gets the direction vector of the SG's current aim direction
    sg:GetVecGoal() // gets the direction vector of the SG's goal aim direction
    sg:Shoot() // makes the SG shoot one shell
    sg:ShootRocket() // makes the SG shoot one rocket
