While You Were Gone

Not a whole lot happened this past weekend, but we posted about secret stuff you can find in Quake3 (story 1, story 2), and Zoid released Q3 Linux binaries for running a dedicated server. We also had a demo of someone beating Xaero on the Nightmare skill level. Steve put up some Gamespy tabs for Q3. All in all mostly a Quake3 weekend, with not much else happening.

  • Well, bug fixes and generally agreed upon necessary improvements. I can\'t list (or remember them all)

    - disconnect from pure server on map change if custom changes
    - crash\'s taunt sound same as Sarge\'s
    - tolower(cdkey) for rare cases unless they do it serverside now
    - IMO, simple encrypt of cdkey and storage outside of config.cfg to stop 90% of amateur theft (packet sniffing, etc)
    - compact (autoscaling?) scoreboard so you can actually see all scores and team balance
    - a normal splitscreen ctf scoreboard
    - ctf flag status on the HUD (major oversight)
    - more ctf maps
    - more ctf maps
    - more ctf maps

    There\'s more but I can\'t think too hard right now. Must.. have.. coffee.
