2.5.2 released!

[lda17h]

After quite a long beta period we can finally release the long awaited new version of Nexuiz - 2.5.2!

Hi, sadly this release doesn't seem to run on my server:

Code: Select all

./nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by ./nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated)
[ugh] tapas@tarzan:/home/games/Nexuiz$ grep GLIBC_2.7 nexuiz*
Binary file nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-686-glx matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-686-sdl matches
[ugh] tapas@tarzan:/home/games/Nexuiz$ grep GLIBC_2.3 nexuiz*
Binary file nexuiz-linux-686-dedicated matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-686-glx matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-686-sdl matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-x86_64-dedicated matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx matches
Binary file nexuiz-linux-x86_64-sdl matches

Is this expected behaviour? 2.5.1 ran fine..

EDIT: Fixed it with a recompile of the server binary.. Here's a gameplay video from a nice warmup massacre we had after getting it to work

I just tested it and holy cow, the new antilag is incredibly accurate, actually its almost perfect! I hope hitscan weapons wont be overpowered, right now im afraid mg&nex combo will dominate everywhere again (i loved it anyway )
keep up the good work and thanks for the best antilag i ever experienced

YaaaaaaaaaaaY! gj and congrats!

For server admins who do not want to download the entire zip, behold: I give you...

Damn Small Nexuiz Server Version alpha2!

Release: http://www.hrfdesign.com/crap/dsn/dsn_server_alpha2.zip (22 mb, includes linux binaries)
Build script (aka sources): http://www.hrfdesign.com/crap/dsn/dsn_server_script.sh (< 1kb)

It is (or is supposed to be ) fully compatible with 2.5.2. It only removes unneccessary files for servers like textures, sounds etc. check out the script for more info. Do note that it does not contain tutorial, the turret test maps, ons-reborn, nr_piece-o-cake, cyberparcour01 or racetrack (the script can easily be adapted to include those, however).

*eagerly awaits the version for normal players*

Thank you for all the new features guys! This is the BEST FPS game ever created!

Awesome release, I especially love the electro's new secondary fire effect. Ran into two things on Stormkeep I disliked though: The floor texture on stormkeep isn't as cool looking as the old one and there's a HUGE (20 frames drop WITHOUT any character models on the map) over by the electro and super health. Other than those two gripes this release is easily the best one.

The MG and shotty are way more powerfull now! Maybe a bit too powerfull
Very nice release tho.
