New PingTool
by Steve Gibson, Jul 26, 1999 3:03am PDTThe GameSpy alternative PingTool v2.5 has been released. Nifty stuff for this new release is support for those "fun names" in Q3Test, and some bug fixes for WinNT users who were getting crashes. Here is a link to the release notes.

Unfortunately the PIngtool guy doesn\'t have the QA resources of GameSpy--it\'s a one-man shop. Still, it is way more customizable and has way more features than GameSpy.
and the biggest thing... it doesn\'t awaken the sleeping Blue Screen or GPF demons.
