Quake III 1.32 Released for Win32 and Linux - Oct.7.2002
We have made available Quake III v1.32 which fixes some bugs and addresses some exploits in online play.
Windows Fixes:
new network protocol, 68
network code:
improved fragmented messages handling
map change while client loads map no longer causes an 'Invalid .PK3' error
map_restart while client loads map no longer causes a reload
fixing donedl being ignored after autodl if map_restart'ed
the demo command has a list of compatible protocols, it will loop through 66 67 68
you can do '/demo four' and it will try four.dm_66 four.dm_67 four.dm_68
or you can explicitely give a '/demo demoname.dm_??'
added mousewheel support in the console:
wheel to scroll, ctrl+wheel to scroll faster, shift+wheel to scroll history
UI in baseq3/ and missionpack/ for PunkBuster configuration
punkbuster server in server creation dialog (sv_punkbuster)
punkbuster client in server browser (cl_punkbuster)
added PB Yes/No to the browsers
removed obsolete MPlayer UI stuff
bumped server browser to handle up to 4096 servers
IP maintained in userinfo
cl_guid in userinfo (as part of PB integration)
printing ports as unsigned ints, no longer printing negative port numbers
cleaned up the legacy IP banning code
use * for IP pattern matching now instead of 0 (fixes some confusion)
ex: 192.246.12.*
made it safe from overflowing and crashing
NOTE: using PunkBuster's banning system is advised instead though
rcon: some fixes to the buffering to avoid overflowing and dropping parts of the message
rcon: now supports quoting /rcon g_motd "foo bar"
added SVF_CLIENTMASK (0x00000002), works only with <= 32 players
set bitmask of players to which send entity
pushed cl_maxpackets upper limit to 125
added [skipnotify] from RTCW, use to display in the console only, but not on client screen
(also fixes pb_msgprefix and pb_sv_msgprefix)
new cvar sv_lanForceRate (defaults 1):
forces LAN clients to the maximum rate instead of accepting client setting
(1 is the default behaviour, backward compatible)
See Readme for complete list of fixes/updates
If you downloaded any of the previous 1.29 beta releases, the auto-update service should update you to the latest version at a considerably smaller download.
