http://dplogin.com/files/clients/windows/paintball2_build024_update_pretest2.exe
Haven't gotten the linux version done, but I might wait a bit on that anyway, since I want to get the client out so people have the vwep models. Just putting out what I have, otherwise I'll never get around to it. Let me know if there are any issues. Oh, and fire up midnight - I have some new cricket sounds.
Edit: Full version here:
http://dplogin.com/files/clients/windows/paintball2_build024_full_pretest1.exe (curretly uploading - if it fails, try downloading it again later).
Note: Vwep only works correctly with the new player models. The old player models are no longer supported.
-
Nice. Works fine for me so far.
-
I can't hear any crickets on midnight, but I tested the sounds and they work fine.
A bit quiet, so maybe it's just my settings or something.
-
Does the vwep require the server to be running build 24?
-
Needs 24 on the server, from what I can see.

This watch is very great, but it covers on written text...

He means the clock is good but it covers the chat text - I completely forgot about that :-(

Thanks for correct my english :P I use translators :P

Nice little detail with the crickets! hehe

erm... my vweps aren't in his hand... it looks like his junk is flopping out of his pants xD

vweps are only supported on the new models. I forgot to mention that. MD2's don't support attachments.

Takes about 30 seconds before they start. You may also have your volume too low. I wanted to make them have a nice ambience, but not be too overpowering/annoying.

Bug: It shows the pgp weapon model everytime, when i start a new map (round too? not tested.), not my "real" weapon. It is correct, if i pick up a weapon.
Tested with my homeserver ("map dome").

you should try sometime in the future to make it available for the old models as well seeing as alot of people use them =]

Not just no but HELL no.
It's time to stop backward compatability.
-
well than is there a way i can disable the vwep so i don't have these funky looking guns on the old models?

The old models don't look as good as the new ones. The animations are weird looking too.

Ah, I forgot to test on maps where you spawn with weapons. Thanks for the bug report. I think I'm going to hold off making a "public" release of build 24. I've got some new sound effects I want to get in anyway.
skitzo: r_oldmodels 0; vid_restart. Problem solved :). Why are you using the old models? It's not possible to support md2 vwep without a lot of tedious work. If you have an issue with the new models, we should work on getting that straightened out, rather than trying to support some really dated, low-poly model that doesn't even fit the bounding box properly.

What with watch?

Sorry, but I don't understand what you're asking.

Bono is talking about the clock (watch = clock)

Old models are 10x better than the new ones imo. Creatures of habit will never change.

I say about this:

I don't think the clock should be there... Mines down the the bottom right corner.

Ye ingame Time. The Clock is the real time, and that is in the mid hi
-
Enable the timestamp :P
-
How about just use xfire's overlay? You can put that one wherever you want.
-
Sorry, it was just my attempt to help out by contributing some basic code, and some guy on the old feature vote wanted it :P
-
Yea, I remember that feature request. Heh.
-
Is there going to be a linux version of prerelease 0.24 ?
-
later
-
So what are the basic changes to the game and build and what is good and bad about them? I just want to know before I want to download the beta build for myself to test.
-
VWEP and the new cricket sounds
-
what is good and bad about them?
also would i already have the new player model or do i need to get it?
-
yes you'll have the new player model
-
Any updates? ;)
-
Small bug - I'm not sure if it's b24 specific, but i thought it would be small enough to put here: When you are observing and you press your team-talk button, when you broadcast the message (to everyone), it makes the sound for team-talk. When you use the global chat button, it is broadcast to everyone, but makes the noramal sound.
Just a small thing that should be an easy fix
-
You don't broadcast the message to everyone as an observer if you team talk, only other observers recieve it. I hope.
-
i am a pirate, its a team talk broadcast to only observers. You can tell by looking at your name and having parenthesis around it. If there's parenthesis, your only talking to observers.
-
jitspoe, when do you think you will have build 24 all done and out?
-
What? There is a download link in the first post of this thread.
-
I know he has a link for the download, but I'm talking about when will he have build 24 done and out for final download. I already got the beta build 24.
-
Technically speaking, this game is still in the alpha stage. That version you have is the "final" build 24.
-
he has not fully compleated alpha build 24, its still in its beta form, if not then why has he not released it to everyone on the Files/Downloads page? Well enough fighting, all i want to know is when he expects himself to be done.

Here we go.....
The releases are based on "Jit-Time"
Jits never has a planned release date for anything. It's always "When he gets around to it".
Since Jits does have a Real Life(tm) and there are no other developers, DP takes a secondary role.
If you go back to previous releases, there is no rhyme or reason to when they get released, unless he makes a release and creates a nasty bug that needs to be patched immediately. Reading past posts and threads would show this trend.
Oh wait....
You're probably too lazy, as you have indicated in the past, to be bothered to do that....
-
i was just asking, all i needed was a simple answer but yet you had to add a immature remark at the end.
-
... but its true :P
-
Post removed
-
happy new years to you and knack, hopfully stops hating me for no reason.
-
Hahaha. I wish we still had that karma system. Pink, you just made my day. XD
-
;D
-
Awesome Vweps.

I downloaded and installed build 24, and it crashed on me more often than build 23, so I reinstalled the whole thing to go back to build 23.
I have found later that the game will crash on me occasionally if my resolution in the game is any higher than 640 x 480. I've tested it on an ATI Radeon x1550 and a ATI Radeon HD2600, and it seems to crash on both if the res is higher than 640x480. It doesn't always crash, and not immedialtely. In build 24, it crashes after about 4 minutes, in build 23, it takes about 15 to 30 minutes, and it usually depends on how many people are on the server. The more on the server, the faster it crashes. If i put the res back to 640x480, I can play all day with no crashes. Weird. The game even plays very smoothly up to 1600x1200 res with this graphics card. Only problem is that is crashes after a while.
-
Try different drivers for the vid card. That solves a lot of crashing with ATI based cards.
-
I downloaded the latest drivers available for these cards, and it still did it. I assumed that it must just be more compatible with Nvidia. Is that not the case?
-
ok,
Did you remove the old drivers, reboot, then install the new drivers?
-
Yes. I actually did it a while ago to solve a problem with a different game. It did actually work for the other game, but not this one. Could be some other hardware I have, because on both of these computers, the only difference in hardware is that one has the HD2600 card, and the other has the x1550, mobo, cpu, memory, harddrives, and everything else are the same. So it's possible that it is the mobo or something.
Actually, my brother has the same computer as well with an x1550, and it does it on his too. So there is something common here. Not sure what it is though. They are all ATI, so I figured it was just ATI, and that it is perhaps more compatible with Nvidia.
-
...so I figured it was just ATI, and that it is perhaps more compatible with Nvidia.
You will find that players with ATI based cards have more issues than players with Nvidia based cards.
-
That's what I figured. Seems that a lot of games favor Nvidia more than ATI. I'll be getting an Nvidia soon, so I'll be able to verify if that is the problem. It will be three days before it gets here though.
-
The games don't favor nvidia. Nvidia just has better drivers. I noticed the reflective water worked fine on my work machine that has an ATI card when used at 640x480, but it turned into the red/green plasma at higher resolutions. Perhaps your crash is due to the reflective water. You could try r_reflectivewater 0.
-
what drivers or video cards to you prefer to work best with PBall?
-
nVidia works best in general (not just pball).
-
I got my new nVidia card, and it works great. Never had a crash.
-
any news on when build 24 fully compleated?
-
Build 24, no.
I think, there are some new news when build 26 comes out.
-
Build 26? Awesome. Hope it has some good menu improvements. One of the best improvements that the menu could have are buttons that look like buttons. Like the "apply" buttons are so hard to find because they just look like regular text. Great game, just needs some user interface fixes. The password prompt in build 25 was awesome. That was a great idea to finally implement.
