Test, and rip my lungs out for being an amnesiac. http://openarena.ws/rel/085/oa085rc1.zip- Win32 and Linux binaries included - Not committed to the SVN yet, it's all RC stuff - Sources? Available in this forum. Will be SVNed too - I don't have TortoiseSVN installed at this time. - IT ISN'T A RELEASE so don't tell the whole neighborhood. - Cosmo's stuff is in this. |

Downloading. ^^
What about gathering more people to test it, through mass mail and links to this thread?
May be a good idea to spread even more the word, so many more people will test it, it's a RC after all.
This thread needs some linkage as well. I'll update the wiki links to map threads when I check the maps included in this version.

I am currently recompiling the engine with the new icons...
I shall provide a vm with 0.8.5 printed in the corner too...
There is some small background problems in the submenu in some small mods... possible because I failed to rename the blueish background shader

I'll provide a mirror to this one. That should help to gather more people.

A few more comments:
The date is wrong in RELEASECANDIDATE.txt but I guess that file won't make it in the final release anyway.
The engine should have vorbis build in... at least it required them during compilation and the patch used is the same as last time. I have not used new versions of ogg or vorbis and that is the reason I have not provided new ones on my packages.
I will make a light version of the source package like last time...

As I see the cg_oldRail 0 is the default now. What about cg_oldPlasma and cg_oldRocket?

I forgot I changed it. My reasoning: I cannot not see the difference with cg_oldRocket and cg_oldPlasma=0 seems unfinished to me. The new rail on the other hand just put the old rail to shame. Plus color2 can now be changed in the menu and it made no sense if old rail was used. |

As far as I can see the old and new rocket difference lies in the splash effect. The old rocket uses a simple 2d splash animation while the new one is more 3d like and it has a particle effect on the top. I think it's prettier, and sometimes when the old rocket splash hits a wall there's a yellow rectangle visible for a frame. Wanted to investigate on that, but got no time for it  . But something other: in oanew.shader the console shader needs a nopic mip command so the logo in the console always looks smooth. Could a native english speaker create a screencast about the new features of the patch? There are some hidden gems like the cg_weaponBarStyle command. |

Whoops, the game just crashed as I finished tier1. I attach my crashlog.txt, and here are the last lines which maybe interesting: Kyonshi^7 almost dodged Udi^7's rocket
----- CL_Shutdown -----
Closing SDL audio device...
SDL audio device shut down.
RE_Shutdown( 1 )
-----------------------
----- Server Shutdown (Signal caught) -----
==== ShutdownGame ====
AAS shutdown.
----- Server Shutdown (Server fatal crashed: VM_Free(qagame) on running vm) -----
==== ShutdownGame ====
^1Error: BotLibShutdown: bot library used before being setup
recursive error after: VM_Free(qagame) on running vm
Update: at the next try I could finish the tier, so it's not an always occuring bug I guess. |

Anyway IMHO , it's better bumping to the latest ioquake3 revision and then appling the oa diff instead of applying single ioquake3 commits.
I would usually agree but it has proven a great way of introducing last minute bugs in the past (learned from experience). This can obviously be solved with weeks of testing but then even more changes has happened in ioquake3 and so we need another two weeks of testing and so on... the changes needs to be introduced while not under stress. About CVAR_CHEAT. Half the players will properly run with the 0.8.1 engine that still works and therefore the CVAR_CHEAT would only apply to half the players... |

Actually I have Q3 , UrT and OA engines updated to the latest ioquake3 engine revision + other patches ( which I've tracked starting by this post : http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=1933.msg25672#msg25672 ) and they all work as a charm : the very latest fixes are not only quick but have also more quality than past fixes. Anyway I don't want to force to the "latest one party" , so I will continue to track and experiment by myself :-) About CVAR_CHEAT. Half the players will properly run with the 0.8.1 engine that still works and therefore the CVAR_CHEAT would only apply to half the players...
Ok ... but all the new players will realize that scripts are completely unuseful :-) Anyway if this change could be introduced in a future release post 085 with a control in the server code to force old clients to the default value ( like it actually does with snaps , actually locked to a max of 30 ) , the change will be effective for all the players :-) |

I think it is a VM problem... I thought it could occur but just couldn't trigger it myself. |

A little OT ...
I've seen the new avatar of fromhell - Fat linux : This is the Linux kernel (as described by Linus) -
There were many misunderstanding about this statement of Linus : that means that the kernel supports now a lot of devices , filesystems , architectures ... etc etc and that the number of new devices/archs is still increasing ... it doesn't mean that the kernel became slow in preformance :D

I've found out the problem with cosmo's ctf_compromise: missing textures. There're the shaders, but not the textures. EDIT: Done: http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=1945.msg27954#msg27954 |

It is not the same error but they are both related to bots... The error posted by Udi had the line "Error: BotLibShutdown: bot library used before being setup" and that makes it possible to find the error in the source. |
