Warzone 2100 Forums

A little later than originally planned, we have now released version 2.3.1 of Warzone 2100.

Changes:
This release finally includes the Playstation music track, thanks to yic2006_44 for providing a lossless copy of it. Some graphical polish was done, like showing background images and videos with correct aspect ratio on non-4:3 screens, and a better map preview and AI slider for multiplayer games. We now have a faster building queueing system - hold down Shift while building to see it in action. And of course, a few bug fixes are included as well. The detailed changelog is listed below.

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

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).

Re-design well done.. I really like how Windows is categorized under "Other Oses"

I believe it uses JS to determine your OS, and then it categorizes download options.

Oohhh, that makes sense. Thanks KukY..

A number of nice improvements, thanks very much for the effort.

So far so good. Sweat improvements. Starting off the score with the new track was a very cool touch, for one. Was a tad dispirited to work on my own WZ stuff but this has re-inspired me. Thanks for all your fine efforts in making and putting this version out.

Also, the map preview is really clean now!

And I've been fairly inactive this version cycle, too; that's below average for me.
