Build 11: Done list
« on: May 30, 2004, 12:59:57 AM »
Done:
- XP mouse acceleration fix
- Stopped overflows from disconnecting clients (paintball2.exe servers only).
- Fixed a crash with the serverlist update.
- gl_showtris works with multitexture enabled (deathmatch 0 only).
- rscripts now work properly with hr4 textures.
- You can specify "requiredfiles" in a maps worldspawn to force the client to download certain files (such as rscripts) -- requires 1.80 server.

Almost done:
- some basic caustics
- Encoded messages for item pickups.  Reduces bandwidth to like 1/20th that of printing out, "You picked up a ..."  Also, instead of simply printing it out like that again, I made the item pickups scroll up on the bottom of the screen and fade out:

There's always been a way to make your own maplist.  Set the rot_file in your server config, or just edit pball/configs/rotation.txt.

beaver, all the menus are done through simple text files, why not make it yourself?

hey fourthx maybe you should not use the word "simple" when talking to some guys cause some guys are well tech challanged (like me).

simple is a relative term, the menu scripting language that jit did is simple compared to say writing a giant interface in xml

Hard to say as there's a lot going on right now -- getting a job, finding a place to live, etc.  I'm doing a bunch of things to reduce the bandwidth used, and it's kind of an all or nothing deal.  I have to get all the different events and messages handled properly on the client and the server.  I have the item pickups working, but I have to handle stuff like flag grabs, eliminations, etc. as well as update all the player scores so I can have a client-side scoreboard.
