Nexuiz 2.3 is coming soon...

Postby divVerent » Sat Apr 21, 2007 8:00 am

well, not THAT soon, maybe in some weeks.

But we would like you to test the current alpha on http://www.alientrap.org/devwiki/index. ... xuiz.Patch

Please report any bugs you find, and test the new features!

The RBI servers are running this version, BTW.

Especially OS X players should be interested in this release - it fixes the F key bug.

Test focus for OS X 10.4.9 users: run "Nexuiz" (not Nexuiz-SDL) and on the console, type:

Code: Select all
apple_multithreadedgl 1


and check if there is any fps change for you.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Note that there is no compatibility download service yet for older clients, which basically means that ruiner can't be played (old clients would see a black screen) and that, so that old clients can connect at all, you need to set up these configuration options:

Code: Select all
sv_curl_defaulturl http://141.2.16.3:7780/nex/files/
sv_curl_serverpackages waypointsprites-0.3


and add this pk3 file: http://141.2.16.3:7780/nex/files/waypoi ... es-0.3.pk3

This procedure won't be needed in the final release, as we would then just send the datapatch to anyone who connects with an old client (players who did get the datapatch that way also just need to download the engineonly package).
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

I use 10.4.9, and it does give me better fps, I used to average about 30 fps, and now i'm around 50. although the code, apple_multithreadedgl 1, it gives me " warning: cant enable multithreaded gl, error 10010. Is there any way i can rempve the "Test only", or whatever it says from the bottom left hand corner of my screen? God knows I have to be able to read the spam! I know its not the actual release, but just for now.

Didn't I read in a post that you have apple too? If you don't mind me asking, what do you have and how does it work for you? I have always been an apple fan, and am thinking of getting the 24 inch imac. Now I have a free 1.25ghz emac. But the downfall to imacs I can see is not being able to upgrade video cards.

Open the console and enter "seta showbrand 0" (unfortunately that logo became necessary after previous testing releases were mirrored and advertised as stables by some sites...)
