Full Story: CHANGES 1.32
General: new network protocol, 68
network code: improved fragmented messages handling map change while client loads map no longer causes an 'Invalid .PK3' error map_restart while client loads map no longer causes a reload fixing donedl being ignored after autodl if map_restart'ed
the demo command has a list of compatible protocols, it will loop through 66 67 68 - you can do '/demo four' and it will try four.dm_66 four.dm_67 four.dm_68 or you can explicitely give a '/demo demoname.dm_??'
added mousewheel support in the console: wheel to scroll, ctrl+wheel to scroll faster, shift+wheel to scroll history
UI in baseq3/ and missionpack/ for PunkBuster configuration punkbuster server in server creation dialog (sv_punkbuster) punkbuster client in server browser (cl_punkbuster) added PB Yes/No to the browsers
removed obsolete MPlayer UI stuff
bumped server browser to handle up to 4096 servers
IP maintained in userinfo
cl_guid in userinfo (as part of PB integration)
printing ports as unsigned ints, no longer printing negative port numbers
cleaned up the legacy IP banning code use * for IP pattern matching now instead of 0 (fixes some confusion) ex: 192.246.12.* made it safe from overflowing and crashing NOTE: using PunkBuster's banning system is advised instead though
rcon: some fixes to the buffering to avoid overflowing and dropping parts of the message
rcon: now supports quoting /rcon g_motd "foo bar"
added SVF_CLIENTMASK (0x00000002), works only with <= 32 players set bitmask of players to which send entity
pushed cl_maxpackets upper limit to 125
added [skipnotify] from RTCW, use to display in the console only, but not on client screen(also fixes pb_msgprefix and pb_sv_msgprefix)
new cvar sv_lanForceRate (defaults 1): forces LAN clients to the maximum rate instead of accepting client setting (1 is the default behaviour, backward compatible)
new cvar sv_strictAuth (defaults 1): server side variable to control wether strict CDKEY auth should be performed with the auth server this is required if you want reliable cl_guid for the server (for users tracking)
filesystem: client re-orders it's pk3s according to the order given by server (fixes some 'Invalid .PK3 files referenced' situations
fixed invisible entities/players bug (thanks goes to Rick Johnson / Raven for this one!)
update x86 VM code (better and safer optimisations) (Richk Johnson / Raven too)
clearing client gentity before GAME_INIT call
failing vote if there's only one voting client (fixes exploit on 2-player server where one player votes then disconnects, forcing vote to pass)
added trap_FS_Seek
renderer fix: if client game code registers a shader after drawsurfaces are generated but before frame is rendered had a one-frame visual glitch (shader indexes messed up)
renderer fix: r_roundImagesDown 0 + map q3dm1 -> crash (buffer overflow fix)
renderer fix: fixed a crash in widescreen displays (q3dm11)
renderer fix: MAX_SHADERS up to 2^12
renderer fix: moved screenshot from frontend to backend, fixes broken r_smp 1 screenshots
TA fixes: MOD_KAMIKAZE MOD_JUICED logging properly to games.log fixed bot taunt spamming
fixed typo in scripts/models2.shader (shader error Ursula head)
Win32 specific: fixed the DirectInput mouse init procedure
rcon: fixed rcon not working on NT/2000/XP workstations that have a long uptime
Linux specific: no longer trying to load libMesaVoodooGL.so obsolete code, was confusing when trying to setup correct OpenGL acceleration
SMP support in the renderer. Detects CPU count, r_smp 1 default if available. (thanks to Gareth Hughes for contributing this)
changed default GL driver from libGL.so to libGL.so.1 see LSB 1.2 spec: http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/refspecs/LSB_1.2.0/gLSB/libgl.html
Handle Ctrl and Space key together correctly (Ctrl was disabling Space)
sub-frame timing of input events (key/mouse) (input timing quality now equivalent to win32) |
