Zortch news & patch notes

Updates in Build 2005 - fix for toggle crouch when both toggle crouch and toggle sprint is enabled - fix for sniper zoom view on wide screens

A small fix that prevents you from saving when defeated also a fix for the all secrets achievement now you no longer have to beat the full game to get it and once again I'd like to apogolise for implementing it like that in the first place (i'm not sure what was I thinking) (fix for the minifx: settings.conf was accidently uploaded - it was fixed now but if you happened to download the patched build in this small time frame before it was fixed - it might have caused something and I'd like to apologise for the inconvenience)
