12-22-2001, for source release under GPL licensing:
|
|
- Tweaked linux/Makefile for easier build
|
|
added linux/README-3.21-RELEASE
|
|
|
|
3.21 Changes:
|
|
- Support for GL_ARB_multitexture added. This supports the new multitexture
|
|
extensions and deprecates GL_SGIS_multitexture.
|
|
- Linux OpenGL X11 handling completely rewritten. Support for XF86DGA Mouse
|
|
and fullscreen resolution support added. Please see the README file for
|
|
Linux about the new features of this handling.
|
|
|
|
3.20 Changes:
|
|
- Fixed a network problem where and oversize packet could cause a client
|
|
crash.
|
|
- Fixed the long standing Quake2 bug of where you would occasionally spawn
|
|
or teleport and find yourself either looking straight at the ceiling or
|
|
down at the floor.
|
|
- Changed it so that the function keys (F1 through F12) now get executed when
|
|
depressed during demo playback or attract modes. This allows you to take
|
|
screen shots (F12) during demos and other features. An example of other
|
|
features is a fast forward for demos:
|
|
alias +ff "timedemo 1"
|
|
alias -ff "timedemo 0"
|
|
bind f7 +ff
|
|
This binding will cause the current demo playing to zip into timedemo mode
|
|
while F7 is depressed, effectively acting like a fast forward key.
|
|
- Wrong packaging of 3.19 patch. The Rogue CD has a 45k pak2 and vwep .md2
|
|
files in baseq2/players, but the 3.19 x86 patch we released has a 2.7MB
|
|
pak2. 3.20 has a 45k pak2 and the vwep models go in baseq2/players.
|
|
- VWep code has been added to Xatrix dll, new VWep models for the Xatrix
|
|
specific weapons (Ion Ripper and Phalanx) have been included.
|
|
- Rogue Linux game library was wrong version and had some unlinked symbols,
|
|
this has been corrected.
|
|
- Occasional error of: "D_SCAlloc: bad cache width 16384" in software renderer.
|
|
This had to do with surfaces to SURF_FLOWING and were transparent. This
|
|
has been fixed in the refs now so flowing transparent textures now works.
|
|
- [Unix] Net_ErrorToString calls were wrong, was using %i and not %s resulting
|
|
in random numbers being printed for error messages.
|
|
- Color shell mixing restored to the same blends as previous versions. This
|
|
was changed in 3.19 for the new color shells the Rogue mission pack
|
|
introduced.
|
|
- Fixed a possible server crash in the new "playerlist" command.
|
|
- Fixed a case where a person joining a server could be invisible (left over
|
|
setting of SVF_NOCLIENT from previous spectator).
|
|
- Invalid pak files no longer cause a crash and are just ignored
|
|
- Fixed a 3.19 bug where linked models (modelindex2) who's modelindex was
|
|
greater than 0x7f causes the wrong model to be drawn (in some cases, the
|
|
world would be drawn twice). This was the cause of many of the "extreme"
|
|
frame lag people were seeing in 3.19 on servers using old-style VWep code.
|
|
- Linux: Complete rewrite of the OpenGL library handling. This was needed
|
|
to cleanly integrate OpenGL extension checking. Linux now supports
|
|
extensions such as multitexture and better dynamic loading of libraries.
|
|
It's cleaner now in that you don't have to preload hack stuff to use the
|
|
3DFX Miniport rather than libMesa3D. The Linux version now uses the
|
|
gl_driver to specify the 3D library to dynamically load. For example, to
|
|
use the lib3dfxgl.so miniport, one would now use:
|
|
./quake2 +set vid_ref gl +set gl_driver lib3dfxgl.so
|
|
This change fixes several bugs that were apparant in the older method, such
|
|
as a segfault occasionally when connecting to a server with a different game
|
|
directory.
|
|
The vid menu in the Linux version has been changed to reflect the new
|
|
options, the current list of supported video drivers are now: software,
|
|
software X11, Mesa 3-D 3DFX, 3DFXGL Miniport, OpenGL glX, and Mesa 3-D glX,
|
|
- Railgun shots now go through gibs as well as other players.
|
|
- New server variable, "needpass" that can been seen with server browser
|
|
tools such as GameSpy. This variable indicates whether a password or
|
|
spectator password is needed to get onto a server. Bit 0 is password and
|
|
bit 1 is spectator password.
|
|
- Quake2 will no longer look for gamex86.dll in the main Quake2 directory.
|
|
It will always load out of the game directory first.
|
|
- Players joining a server during an intermission are now moved to the
|
|
intermission position.
|
|
- The "logfile" cvar has been extended with the following values:
|
|
0 - don't log (default)
|
|
1 - overwrite qconsole.log and use buffered writes
|
|
2 - overwrite qconsole.log and flush write every line
|
|
3 - append to existing qconsole.log and flush write every line
|
|
- Several minor bug fixes to the Rogue mission pack gamex86.dll
|
|
- Linux: Rebuild of Rogue mission pack shared library to correct some
|
|
dynamic symbol errors (is NAN errors).
