v23669 (06/25/01):
- (bug fix) Vehicles and deployables now properly explode if they are destroyed while someone is repairing them. - (bug fix) Sniper laser shots no longer create water splash effects if hitting ground near the water. - (bug fix) Immersion iForce force feedback mouse is now working properly again. - (bug fix) The "flag jumping" bug is now fixed. When a flag lands after being dropped, it will stay put when it slides to rest. - (bug fix) Fixed a situation where closing tribe or player tags on the Browser out of order would cause a disconnect with the database server. - (bug fix) Players can no longer fire, place mines, place grenades, or place beacons when inside a force field. - (bug fix) Fixed bug where modifier keys (specifically SHIFT) bound to actions in the game would still cause those actions when typing in a text edit control in-game (such as the chat entry) - (bug fix) Fixed a bug that could cause a player to drop to desktop when attempting to join a game which was in the process of cycling missions. - (bug fix) Fixed a Radeon video card issue which could occur if the desktop color bit-depth was different than the color bit-depth that the player was using in the game. - (bug fix) You won't try to fade into a vehicle that was destroyed after you purchased it, but before you had actually tported to the seat. - (bug fix) Minor change in the MPB explosion so that the turret part of the MPB doesn't seem to hover in place for a split-second during the explosion. - (bug fix) Bomber bombs now tumble properly and won't seem to disappear when falling. - (bug fix) Fixed a rare problem that could cause a client crash while the server is resetting. - (bug fix) Fixed a problem with the ELF gun effect that was causing hangs. - (bug fix) Telnet can now be used to set passwords for PURE servers so that they can be used for match games. (command line option...see the post in T2FAQs called "How do I TELNET INTO A PURE SERVER?" for more information on how to use this ability.) - (bug fix) The "cloning" issue (where players could clone themselves by dying, going to the CC with the CC camera showing themselves, spawn, and flicker back and forth to the CC) is now fixed and no longer occurs. - (bug fix) Another "cloning" issue which occurred when the Tourney Admin would switch teams for players is fixed and no longer occurs. - (bug fix) Fixed a bug where, when a client joins a server where the client does not have the map being run on the server, the client hangs while loading. This now elegantly exits instead of hanging. - (bug fix) Fixed an issue where the last few characters of the Server Info dialog would be cut off. - (bug fix) Fixed a situation where a blank error box could occur if CD key not entered properly when creating an account. - (bug fix) Sensor rings will no longer show up on the Command Circuit if the generators are not powered. - (bug fix) There was a rare bug where, if a player was standing in a force field's position when that force field went from a depowered to powered state (in otherwords, if the gens were repaired while he stood in the FF position), then the player would be stuck forever. If this case occurs, that player will now be destroyed. - (improvement) The "redjack" icon has been removed and new network throughput graphs have been implemented to better help players troubleshoot their net settings. Additionally, a more accurate and complete set of network presets is available. (See details below under "NETWORK SETTINGS" for more information.) - (improvement) The pure server concept is now implemented. Pure servers only allow regulation scripts and maps to be run on the server (no restrictions yet on the client), thus ensuring that anyone that joins a "base" server is playing the game as it was designed by Dynamix. MODs are still easily joined, but players can be assured that a "Base" game is really a "Base" game now. (Any game with server or rules mods that is not actually named as a new MOD will be described as "variant" instead of "base" on the master server list.) NOTE: See "PURE SERVER" below for more information on this. - (improvement) Old Password is now required in order to enter a New Password when editing your account. - (improvement) Password handling is different now in order to make it more difficult for people to casually find a password on a hard drive. - (improvement) Made more room for player names to display on the Server Info box. - (improvement) Bomber and Tank now have separate energy capacitors for their turret weapons. This energy pool is completely separate from the energy pool that the thrusters and force shields use. (Gunner energy is displayed as a second bar below the regular vehicle energy and is orangish in color.) - (improvement) Vertical thrusters on air vehicles are now more efficient to enable better takeoffs from ground level. - (improvement) Changed team damage OFF to include friendly turret fire and vehicle fire. (In otherwords, if Team Damage is OFF, then turrets fire and vehicle fire will not affect friendly units.) - (improvement) Splash damage no longer falls off so dramatically with distance. You will find that area effect (explosion) weapons now are more effective within their damage area. - (improvement) While in Tournament mode, and while in observer mode at the beginning of a match (before teams have been selected), players will now be able to chat with one another. - (improvement) Added observer points to Tombstone (it previously had none). - (improvement) Grenades tossing is slightly improved. The grenades will throw farther with less time spent pressing the grenade key. (They still have the exact same minimum and maximum throwing distances, it's just easier to throw it out to max range now.) - (community) Player histories are now accurate. - (community) Preferences in the FORUMs should be fixed now so that they stay in existence. The sort is the only exception. That will reformat each time you enter the FORUM and you will need to select whichever sort your prefer at that time. |

v23115 (05/30/01):
- (bug fix) Fixed an authentication hole that allowed arbitrary IP connections to a LAN server. The policy now is: LAN servers will disallow any connections from IP addresses that do not match the Class B network address of the server (or match one of them, in a multihomed server). So if your server's address is 12.13.14.15, clients from 12.13.*.* will be considered, but clients from 12.12.*.* will be immediately rejected. In addition, a LAN server will only allow 4 unique Class C ids at any one time. This should be sufficiently lenient for even the largest LAN parties, but should eliminate the auth hole. - (bug fix) Fixed a server crash on mission change when the last human player leaves the game in mid cycle. - (bug fix) Fixed a bug that could reset your Shape Detail setting to max - (bug fix) Client join message name correction - (bug fix) All known in-game Chat HUD bugs are fixed (partial lines from paging up/down and resize issues, etc.). - (bug fix) Infinite missile lock-on sound bug is fixed. Dead. Finito. No more. Pushing up the daisies. - (bug fix) Stitched up a hole associated with one of the base shapes. Small fry compared to the memory leaks. - (bug fix) Found a particle crash issue and plugged it up good. - (bug fix) Fixed a shield impact internal compile error that was crunching frame rate. - (bug fix) Turns out we tweaked it so inventory stations were counting as turrets for turret placement purposes. D'oh. Fixed. - (bug fix) A rare crash that occurred with the Radeon VE card has been resolved. - (bug fix) Fixed a crash that could occur when a flare grenade was released when inside a force field. - (bug fix) Deployable turrets (spider and spike) and Deployable inv stations now do damage in their explosion when they are destroyed. - (optimization) The following missions were refined in order to optimize framerate: Alcatraz Caldera Flashpoint Gauntlet IceBound Insalubria Overreach Respite Sirocco - (optimization) Adjusted the LOD of the logo projectors found in CnH missions. - (optimization) Changed object shield shapes from the form-fitting forcefields into a less poly-intensive dome effect. Also gave shields a lower memory profile. - (optimization) Changed the way the clouds' planes are clipped. Sky's the limit, right? - (optimization) Missile sound script calls moved from script into code for faster processing. - (memory leak) Fixed a large memory leak. This plus the other leaks mentioned here should finally put the nail in the coffin on the "degrading server performance" issue. - (memory leak) Fixed a memory leak associated with the pretty lightning effects on maps like Casern Cavite.memory leaks: - (memory leak) Fixed a memory leak in our fancy text list control and the gui text list. - (memory leak) Fixed a memory leak involving memory use and resource allocation. - (improvement) Targeting laser prediction should be better now. - (improvement) You can specify a server's IP address manually at the join screen - (improvement) You can now specify "-password <pw>" on the command line to join a server that requires a password. - (improvement) Heavy armors are tougher against snipers. You now require four headshots or five body shots to kill a Juggernaut with a laser rifle. - (improvement) Footspeed of all armors increased slightly, as well as a minor boost to jetpack performance. Some improvements made to air resistance for mediums and heavy armors (very subtle). - (improvement) The jetpack effect was reverted back to the old effect (by popular demand). - (improvement) A Chat HUD message has been added that is displayed whenever you try to deploy a mine, but your team's maximum number of mines has already been deployed. Previously, the mine would just blow up and not explain why it detonated. Now, it still blows up, but tells you why it happened. - (improvement) Polished up the health meter on the HUD so when you're still alive, it displays a visible sliver of positive health. - (improvement) Made framerate and gameplay changes to Caldera. The attackers' base has been moved farther from the defenders, and the switch has been put in one of the upper chambers, while the stations are located separately from the generators. The changes should fix a serious defensive advantage. - (improvement) After you buy a vehicle, you now fade into the driver's seat if your armor and pack make you an eligible pilot/driver. - (improvement) Added a "rogue" mine message so that if you are killed by a mine laid by someone who has left the building, the death message is more accurate. - (improvement) Increased speed of belly turret projectiles so that it is more effective in general (especially for air defense). - (improvement) Modified name tags of vehicles when you place your reticle over them. Names are now more consistent and descriptive. - (improvement) Missile and AA turrets now have a longer maximum range (you'll still need to deploy sensors to get this added range, but they can fire farther if you do). They also react more quickly to available targets. - (community) The "compose email", "forum post", and "news submission" windows are now resizable and movable. |
