[robocup-humanoid] GameController 2014 available for download

[Daniel Seifert]

Dear Humanoid League teams,

in 2012, team B-Human presented a new GameController in the SPL's Open
Challenge. This subsequently became the official game controller of
the Standard Platform League. The new version features a significantly
enhanced user interface, which should make it easier to use during
competitions.

In 2014, the Humanoid League will switch to the new version as well.

As due to rule changes in the SPL the gamecontroller message format
has changed, we are using a forked version with a compatibility layer
that speaks and understands both the new and the old format. This
means that as long as you filter on the version number of incoming
gamecontroller packets, your existing code should continue to run
without a change. However, note that the goal color is now always set
to yellow.

A binary version of the GameController can be downloaded at the
"Downloads" section at http://www.tzi.de/humanoid. The source code can
be found at http://www.github.com/fumanoids/GameController (in the HL
branch!).

Thanks to team B-Human for their work in maintaining and improving
this important tool.

Daniel Seifert
