The new weapons, playermodel-specific sounds and turrets I like. So far I've only hit one bug and that's the delayed mouse issue: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph ... tid=563407

(I seem to have misplaced my sourceforge account.)

I can't see the portal models until I connect to a server and play on a map with the port-o-launch. Then I can see them locally too.

The models were there and had coronas when enabled. They also had shadows with r_shadow 1 or 2, There were no models on the test00 map or with sv_cheats 1; impulse 99.

Revision 6015 using the sdl version.

Ok, its on sourceforge too: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2653102&group_id=81584&atid=563407

The game is loading extra pk3 from ~/.nexuiz/data and this one seems suspect :

Added packfile /home/kanonmat/.nexuiz/data/svn_weapons.pk3 (22 files)

Please try again after moving theses pk3 in ~/.nexuiz/data/dlcache.

**SOLVED**
Yes, removing svn_weapons.pk3 did the job.

We told you on irc its some pk3 file that does that mess glad you found the one now though
I'll close the tracker then

I am seeing three issues on 2.5beta newest as of 2/27. My test was on my 2.5 beta server (all custom maps) and 2.5beta client both on Ubuntu 8.10

In the client I am missing some of the audio (flag capture and some other announce items.)
Flags show up as transparent with no "skin" or color on them.
Mouse wheel doesn't work at all.

Ironically when I go to NexNinjaz all of these work. Is my server install not correct?

What server did you connect to? Was that a beta server? Of course some of the changes in this beta also require an uptodate server..

Or on the other hand, which client did you use to connect? A 2.4.2 client to connect to a beta server? There have been lots of changes and you need to do some manual work to allow 2.4.2 clients to connect properly (server currently running the beta do that. I"m not sure yet if that should continue when 2.5 is really released. might make it "easier" for people to go and update )

Hello Esteel,

Both client and server are 2.5 beta. The server is my personal server (not yet public.) As I said everything works fine when I connect to the Ninjaz servers so am I doing something wrong on the server or client? Any ideas? Should I go with a newer build?

Tx!

another possibility is having a bad map package that contains an old progs.dat file, this could be over-riding changes.
