Better late than never, here's an official showeq release with compatibility for Serpents Spine. Most stuff should be working ok. The new gray cons kinda suck on the map since spawn points and unknowns are also gray. You can change the spawn con colors using Options->Con Colors. If you see problems with anything, bring it up.

Special thanks to showeq42 and ksmith for all the help with this release.
