+## [1.7.1] - 2023-12-17
+
+### Changed
+
+- ResDir instances now cache their contents on creation time. This is a change from previous behaviour, where additions to a local directory were reflected immediately.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- ResDir is now case-insensitive, same as base game and other ResContainer types.
+- scriptcomp: Messages about encoding are no longer printed multiple times when using threads.
+
 ## [1.7.0] - 2023-11-26
