Beta Patch Win 3353, 3354, 3355, & Linux 3354/5

[Frogger]

guess it's worthy of its own thread:

3339 to 3353:
General Gameplay:
- Fixed stuttering/snagging/sinking into static meshes in some places on clients in net games
- Improved getting out of water
- Fixed FaceClassic teleporter exploit
- The Cicada hud indicators should now show up in all game modes.
- Fixed SPMA causing damage at world origin.

Networking:
- Server performance improvements
- Cheating detection improvements, with shorter time for master server band detection
- Integration of UTAN bans with UT2004 master server. Admins can opt out by adding bIgnoreUTANBans=true to [IpDrv.MasterServerUplink]
- Fixed potential garbage collection crash when changing levels during network games
- Improved caching of server data for when you can't connect to the master server.
- UTV updated (netspeed fix).
- Better Client->Server->MS Error Messages

Engine:
- Improved level loading speed, especially on network clients
- Fixed calling SetBase(NULL) on all attached actors when an actor is destroyed

Editor:
- Fix for importing static meshes

Menus:
- Model select page now properly selects the current char when you open it.
- Updated Korean localization

3353 to 3354:

- Fixed another cause of sticky meshes in netplay.
- Fixed not being able to exit raptor when it's on the ground.
- Minor text fixes
- VCTF now appears in server browser, even if you don't already have any VCTF maps installed.
- Added code to sync the Stream (MP3) volume with normal music volume.
- Added bIgnoreUTAN to web admin
- Fixed (for assault) the energy core always showing on the HUD even if it not the current objective (thanks AngelMapper)
- Added code to insure StopDemo is executed before a map change or game exit
- Remove 8x from the demo playback menu. The engine has problems with that speed.
- Fixed bug in Demo Playback menu that caused the Play/Pause button to be out of sync
- Added Demo playback jog keys to the console.
- Left Cursor slows down playback (1/4x -> 1/2x)
- Right cursor speeds ups playback (2x -> 4x)
- Up/Down cursor resets to 1x
- Disable by settings bDemoJogKeys=false in [XInterface.ExtendedConsole]

Linux 3354 Also has:

This build has a good portion of the editor (NOT unrealed!) package
included, which should fix a few mods that needed this functionality.

UTV is also built in, but totally untested.

3354 to 3355:
- Fixed resetting energy core in Assault (AS-Junkyard)
- Fixed resetting demo playback speed properly with new demo playback controls.

HOLY S**T! They finally fixed those! (both have been in the game from the beginning)

Grabing it now

[legacy-{BL}Beerserker]

that's it? :P

[legacy-DJMattB2421]

any patch is a good patch. :up:


demoreccing still has problems with vehicles though... particularly when someone is riding on a manta, etc. Sometimes the game doesn't think i landed on the manta, so i'm just standing still, then BOOM i'm somehwere else in the map.


keep up the good work though!

Please fix your noob demoviewer Epic The rewind function was invented ages ago, please implement this usefull feature.

Plus the menus shouldnt be so static. The menu windows should be adjustable fx in the demo section, you have huge space for the thumbnail, but hardly any space to watch the demo titles. Why dont Epic improve this?

Well I quess i will never know

This was discussed before and would break the demo playback if you could rewind.

Unless they totally changed how demos were made.
