2.3.4 has been released!

And another release!

Unfortunately, 2.3.3 didn't turn out that well, it didn't fix the burn damage, and I forgot to include the newly added Korean translation in the installer... :oops: In its favour, it did include a crash fix I overlooked when writing the changelog (r11308, #2008).

So now we release 2.3.4, in the hope that it doesn't have serious problems and we can return to our originally planned release schedule, with about 6-8 weeks between releases. Apart from fixing the abovementioned problems there are not many other changes, mainly an update for DyDo-AI, and some translation things.

Download:
As usual, downloads can be found on our download page or directly on Sourceforge.

Bug Reports:
As usual, we need bug reports to fix problems in the game. Please note that we use tickets only to track bugs, for discussions about how features should work and feature requests we have a dedicated forum section.

For bug reports, see BugReporting for details, in short:
  • Search the existing tickets for your problem, if the problem has already been fixed in SVN, the ticket will be closed.
  • If there is an open one already, feel free to add more info to it.
  • If there is no report yet, make a new ticket.
  • Be as detailed as possible in both summary and description, and either log in with your forum account or leave an email address so we can contact you if we need more information.
  • The more information we have, the easier it is to fix problems, so include savegames/instructions to reproduce the bug, crashdumps, backtraces, screenshots for graphical problems... if you have.
  • When you attach files to a ticket, please add each text/image file separately and uncompressed, so we can view them easily in trac (savegames can and should be zipped, they consist of name.gam, possibly name.es, and the files in the name/ folder).
Detailed Changelog:
2010-08-11: Version 2.3.4

  • Fix: Really fix burn damage calculations (r11393, #2045)
Multiplayer
  • Change: Show less netcode errors/warnings (r11356)

60MB is better than 600MB. I'm glad you can download the video files separately.

Keep up the good work guys!

Hey, chill it. If you don't like it, go elsewhere with that attitude.

Yep, I totally agree and if I were on staff here, he would have been immediately banned from this site.

Anyway, Thanks very much once again to all the great people who continue to develop this awesome game. :)

A ban on him because of a simple misbehave is too much :lecture:

A warning regarding his misbehavior is just enough :geek: :hmm:

Back to the topic :lecture: i gonna download the version right now :D

He's been warned for his misbehavior three to five times, I think. I'm not going to ban him, but it is nearly time to be taking further action.

So is the burn damage slower or faster now? i know before it used to depend on frame rate.

Also, that metal warrior guy seems to be an ultra negative character, im tired of seeing him in the ideas forum posting comments like " Its stupid" or "no that sucks"

Slower against most targets, since it's affected by armor now.

Much faster against bunkers and much slower against hardcrete, since it's affected by damage multipliers now.

I love new patches! even if i don't actively notice the things that have changed... its still just fun to know something is different, and it always gets me playing the game again.
God i hate you!!

WOW. 50 meg is not that bad, unless you are using dial up, and even if you if you are...
REALLY?!?! your going to be that much of a little snot about something that is this high quality?! You are getting it for FREE you little nub!!

I may have just joined the forum but I have been lurking for a while now and I think this kid needs to be punished at least a little. He seems all around negative and disrespectful to the people working on this project. They deserve nothing short of appreciation.

You can get almost anything for money, so... if you pay enough, there'll be somebody that can do this for you. If you are not willing or able to pay, better remain silent.

The alternative to investing money of course is investing time, you're welcome to work on making an updater yourself, I'm sure many people would appreciate that.
