UT2Vote51 Beta 4

Somewhere in one of Epics patches they seem to have fixed the EndGame problem in Assault.
This code is taken from the 3355 Patch but it would be interesting to know if it works in the 3339 Patch.

Changes and Additions in Beta 4

1. bVoteInAssault
This is only temporary in the IniOnly section for you guys incase it does not work.
Basically its defaulted to True but if the voting is a screwup in Assault just set it to False.
As I said above it would seem the EndGame detection has been fixed in Patch 3355 so lets see how it goes.

2. Map Extensions
UT2Vote will now strip off any extensions (eg - .ut2) if an Admin adds it as for some reason it causes chaos when calling the C++ Header files "FindNextMap".

3. In Game Admin
If an Admin is present during the game (not game end) then all voting is disabled.
However... if voting has already started during the game and the Admin enters afterwards then the voting will continue.

4. Access Nones
Managed to remove many of these annoying bugs from the log and especailly in Assault.

The zip file is only on my PC as too many people know about the Beta folder on my site

How did that get leaked?

BTW, does anyone know how to set your sig to OFF by default here? I could have sworn there was an option to do that, but I can't find it anywhere!

Nice, will try that later .... Do you need a mirror for Beta Releases ? A "hidden" one ; ) ?

What does this actually mean if an admin adds it ? Do you mean in the Gamestring and / or maplist ?

Ha! You made me reread my question to make sure I asked the right thing. Thanks, for the advice. I should clarify that I want to see sigs, just not my own unless I check the box. No need to spam a sig here in this forum.

 

[utw-Mephisto]

I took the opportunity also to disable sigs .. don't like it anyway

 

[CVROY]

I may have forgotten, but is there a way to specify bot count on multiple maps... like say ctf-maul and have 4 bots and on ONS-torlan have 10... this would be all automatic,

Is this a feature that could be added or is it already... abuh!

 

[frogger187]

if you use a maplist i think you can specify bot limits on each map

 

[ProAsm]

Sooooooo, does the Map Menu popup in Assault Game End or is it still the same as before ?

 

[utw-Mephisto]

I'll try in a second ..

 

[utw-Mephisto]

PERFECT !

What I again noticed:

The level switch at game end (DM) takes ages so that you can think the server has crashed.
I can remember that we already have this problem times ago but I really do not know when (maybe even in UT2K3).

i just tested this 8 games not a problem no difference from b3 as far as level change didnt try assult but dm is fine here

 

[frogger187]

this seems to be working ok here.

 

[ProAsm]

Ok I think 51 has enough changes and fixes now so I'll get it ready for a release.

 

[utw-Mephisto]

What about the problem from PoW ?
Anyone else problems with mapchange times ? I just played about 4 AS games, changed maps between standard and CBP. I played also 4 ONS games, with and without ECE and I played Instagib DM and mapchanging time is around 5-10 seconds on a listen server.

 

[ProAsm]

That problem was in UT2003 itself and had nothing to do with UT2Vote.
I test in DM all the time, in fact thats all I play and if the server took longer than normal I would have noticed it.
Pow, we need more information when you make a statement like that, like how many players, what map or maps, how long is long, can we replicate the problem, is it there all the time, is it there with one player and a Bot, is it there during a Instant Action game.
As I said before, if I cannot replicate the problem here then I cannot fix it.
If no one else can verify having this problem by tomorrow I'm releasing.

 

[utw-Mephisto]

I mean I totally forgot, I run also 16 slot ONS and 8 slot Instagib DM (IPs at http://www.unrealserverstats.com/) and no delays on that one. At least the ONS Server is full all the time ...
