Thanks for the patch, i am applying it right now

Please for future patches: Give us the old Minsta-Nexgun back. New one is UGLY!!!

Nice work guys, just committed this to the gentoo portage tree, so 2.5.1 should now be available in ~arch. Also updated my servers to this version and everything seems fine.

Life is good.

@morfar: Could you put sizes for the downloads into your post so everyone knows that they really should download the patch?

Give us the old Minsta-Nexgun back. New one is UGLY!!!

The old one is actually the new one and the new one is actually the old one. That model was previously used for the Nex gun.

Yeah. But it's still kinda ugly

MinstaNex and Nex shouldn't have the same model, as you are able to own both at once. This is why an older Nex model had been "revived" for it.

Modellers, feel free to make a new MinstaNex model.

I've said thousand times now: the very very old Nex model was the best. Imho.

I am only playing Minstagib and there is only 1 Nexgun possible at once.
All of the Minsta-gamers dislike the new/old minsta gun.

Read the topics about 2.5 in pur forum and u see the comments about the actual minsta-nex

It looks like a plastic-laser for kids

Still Growl. As Div0 said, both can be equipped at the same time, so different models has to be used. One cannot just switch the Nex model for minstagib unless the servers do it manually.
But rest assured that a new Nex model is being planned so just be patient till it's finished.

The patch (NOT the release zip) has a somewhat serous bug: background music is missing on many maps.

If you are on Linux or OS X, you can fix the pk3 by this command in a terminal:

zip -d data/data20090501patch.pk3 sound/cdtracks/thru-the-mirror.ogg sound/cdtracks/subcities.ogg sound/cdtracks/neuronal-diving.ogg sound/cdtracks/infight.ogg sound/cdtracks/digital-pursuit.ogg sound/cdtracks/chaos-fog.ogg sound/cdtracks/calling-bogus.ogg sound/cdtracks/breakdown-easy.ogg sound/cdtracks/brainsukker.ogg.

On Windows, it may be possible to do the same, but I don't know if and how these items appear in Explorer. Someone please test that and post a guide. Maybe an app like 7zip is needed to fix it, in case Explorer does not show these items.

The patch download has been replaced on sourceforge, but it may take a while for the fix to appear on the mirrors. It already is on switch: http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/nexuiz ... ch-251.zip
