Thanks for the fixes on new version.
Nice work!

* zoomfov can't be set to values lower than "2". Warsow crashes and this error is displayed:



* Imo, these messages about fonts being loaded makes no sense for players and should be hidden:


* The above picture also shows a bug with the default value of zoomfov.

Renderer bug or map bug?

looks like a rendering bug

couldn't reproduce this locally

It was caused by r_subdivisions which somehow was set to "0". Any value lower than "2" will bug that part of the map.

IMO, new versions should try to harden the live of Wallhackers and Aimbotters that are spreading as hell. Maybe they are the majority of active players. And also make it harder for those who also edit memory for cheat.

I haven't seen any cheaters in warsow since my 1st try of this game.

Are you really sure that it's them cheating. How long have you been playing this game? and what gametype, it can seem like some have wallhack. When they just have a good experience from the game and often know where people usually are with the help from sound.

You can download demo after the match, first write /demolist and then /demoget "insert number" and you can see if it looks as wallhack or not. Last time that I saw some aimbots were in v0.5

Instagib will have a higher chance of getting wallhackers and aimboters.

We don't need this discussion here. Keep this focussed on beta2 stuff plz.

if you scroll up the console log, you may actually noticed that setting s_module to could have failed..

nah wasnt.. just dont read that i have to restart my sounds :) but thanks anyway, and sorry for the mistake..

- Joystick movement problem (www.warsow.net/forum/thread/t/206171#post-206171) still exists

- Interface: would be nice to have keyboard support in main menu, double click to join map

- Joystick movement problem (www.warsow.net/forum/thread/t/206171#post-206171) still exists

absolutely low prirotiy, none of the devs is interested in touching the joystick input code. feel free to submit your patches.

it would, but not release critical.

* zoomfov can't be set to values lower than "2".

wfm, but i'm going to set the lower bound for zoomfov to 3, just in case

thank you devs :) very nice! from the hour that i have played of the beta i have not been able to reproduce a lot of the bugs that i had issues with in the previous beta, namely with audio

in regards to the sdk release: i had to remove the "-Wl" switches from the makefile to get it to compile with gcc 4.7; i guess the parameter has been depreciated in the newest gcc

one feature request that i would still love to see is keyboard input in the game menu (ie: switching between menu items with the arrow keys or wasd and selecting with enter like in .6 etc)

great work guys

in regards to the sdk release: i had to remove the "-Wl" switches from the makefile to get it to compile with gcc 4.7; i guess the parameter has been depreciated in the newest gcc

I think, gcc 4.7 doesn't recognize -Wl if it's not passed to the linker, or passed in an invalid manner. this:

-Wl,--as-needed

should still work fine

nm this seems to have been a one-off thing..

I mentioned this in the last beta thread and looks like it never got changed. There is some line in the makefile with a redundant -Wl option. I used
sed -i source/Makefile -e 's/-Wl -O1 -Wl/-O1 -Wl/g'
in a pkgbuild. The first -Wl didnt have any options but the second was fine

yeah, the original report somehow escaped my attetnion. fixed in final now.
