When I turn on the game shows the information that is 1.6.7.b1 version. Mistake?

kicikici · « **Reply #2 on:** March 23, 2014, 04:30:27 pm »

I must confirm that. I see 1.6.7b1 after soldat start and during "esc" menu.
EDIT:
- I didn't modify any value in weapons ini files and I got (WM). It could be connected with problem of detection 1.6.7b2?
- Downloading and patching soldat without any problems (W7 SP1).

Can't install patch. "Unable to locate a compatible version" I have default location for 1.6.7b1. Once again I must install full soldat... and...

Secret option?

Scale interface.
This polish translation is bugged since this option was added.

The Polish translation is indeed derped. Give me the Polish equivalent for the "Scale Interface" checkbox, and I'll add it.

Line #820 Skaluj interfejs <-- The last line, all the way down at the bottom
The line is in client/trunk/txt if I'm not mistaken, and changing font didn't help.

Could you please tell me what you did with 1.6.7b1 installer?
Did you move the installed files?
Where did you install 1.6.7b1?
What is your windows version?
Is it 32 or 64 bit windows?

Hmm that checkbox looks weird indeed

Or let our translation team leader do fix it

Thats why i love such fixes. Fix it to say 1.6.7b1 and now it's still not correct

might just have left it 1.6.7 then it would be at least right in the final version

homerofgods · « **Reply #8 on:** March 23, 2014, 06:27:50 pm »

I can fix it!
There's an extra empty line at the bottom of the polish translation. (It's not visible in notepad, but only when I open in Notepad++)
Thx Puure

I've set small server with (currently) two maps with new polygons: my ctf_Infinity with have loots of thsi new polys, and my recently updated ctf_Ash remake.

Map Test Server
93.186.195.58:23073

Beside I see a bit worst performance compared to b1, in my maxed map that I have for testing i get 40fps compared to stable 60fps(just like limit is set) i b1

and I found weird bug: I have script that spawn two knifes: one in hand and one in ground, and in this version player get... flamer in hand and knife on the ground....
Did you changed weapons numbers? if yes, looots of script gonna be messed up after that

Damnit. Yes, the weapon numbers were changed internally in the game. I thought I had added a compatibility layer in all needed places though.

First make sure that both the server and client are running 1.6.7b2. If the problem persists, could you give me a code example that fails?

Akinaro · « **Reply #11 on:** March 24, 2014, 05:45:38 am »

I did clean install of server few hours ago and clean install of b2 on my pc.
and by code you mean this part of script?
its very simple, i've made it for my self but I used it last year on few serves(its in OnPlayerCommand Function):

Code: [Select]

{KNIFE SPAWN PART}
	if Text = '/knife' then 
	begin
				ForceWeapon(ID, 14, GetPlayerStat(ID, 'Primary'),12);
				SpawnObject(GetPlayerStat(ID,'x'),GetPlayerStat(ID,'y'),12);
				WriteConsole(ID,'You spawned one knife in your hand and one on the ground!',color);
	end;
{END KNIFE SPAWN PART}

I dont get any errors its just spawn flamer instead of knife.

PS. ARSSE still is messed up: instead of CTF it show DM mode, and console is blank, no players etc.
PPS. w+s doesn't throw flag? Its intentional? Didnt checked this in beta1...

Installer? I removed it from disk after installing the game. Did i moved installed files? No, I only copied the soldat.ini from the previous version, because I don't want set configuration every time on the fresh version and i installed 1.6.7b1 in default location C:/. Windows XP 32 bit

Akinaro · « **Reply #13 on:** March 24, 2014, 08:02:22 am »

Found bug with new polygons. Dont know why, but in this version, when texture use edges you get this in new polygons:

Map look weird a bit because of that...

I Didn't had that in beta 1, and I have the same settings in soldat...

I added polish translation here: http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=41760.0 long time ago, don't know why it hasn't been added :C
~~Also, the download for the patch is blank - did you take it down?~~ It's working again.

homerofgods · « **Reply #15 on:** March 24, 2014, 11:16:46 am »

Viral probbably my fault, but it's fixed for next release.

If anyone wants to change something in any translation they should do it now before the final release

I have a feeling that most languages needs an update

PS in bug tracker we should post bugs in 1.6.7b1? because there i no b2...

SyavX · « **Reply #17 on:** March 24, 2014, 02:22:07 pm »

1. Knife & M79's granade doesn't collide with flag anymore.

2. I've made a report with full description of HTF/INF flag messages issues a few years ago: #148

Quote from: Shoozza on March 23, 2014, 03:16:07 pm

- Fixed HTF incorrectly used some INF flag messages (referring to the Objective instead of the Yellow Flag)

3. Not a new report, just an information about an old one: excessive CPU usage after several leaving/entering game (tried build-in server) is still there...

4. Intro.sdm is not compatible with current version.
