Alright, I think the ScriptCore changes are finalized now so its time for an update post.
Consider this the “Function/Event Parameter Changes” warning.
EDIT: Updated 30/10/2009 – Forgot to add an extremely awesome new feature to the list. DrawAdvText!
Today I am going to post the full ScriptCore v3 Changelog (Soldat 1.5.1) only, and discuss as much as I can about each change.
Just a quick warning for all past & present Scripters, as well as server owners (that use scripts…), regarding ScriptCore v3 function/event parameters.
Also some other little news that aren’t quite worthy of a headline.
Quite a few things to talk about. I’ve been coding quite diligently on the Soldat Client and Server this month, and have greatly improved the ScriptCore, enough to label it as ScriptCore v3. But I am certainly not done yet, still have to recode the threading and test things. I will go into detail further down in this post, click Read More.
EnEsCe needs YOU! As most of you know, Soldat 1.5 is plagued with problems for certain systems which had no problem with Soldat 1.4.2… Due to the nature of these issues, I am unable to test fixes myself; so I need some people to help me test 1.5.1 binaries. If you meet ALL of the following requirements, please contact me ASAP via email and I will give you my IM addresses. I use almost every form of IM client.
* You get Access Violations when starting or exiting Soldat 1.5
* You get a blank screen when starting/joining a game in Soldat 1.5
* You do NOT get the above problems in 1.4.2, only in Soldat 1.5!
* You have any other bug preventing you from playing Soldat 1.5, but you dont get this bug in 1.4.2
* You must be online frequently during daylight times. No school kiddies, sorry.
* Speak and Type very good English. Ppl hu typ liek dis shld di in righteous fire.
The sooner people come forward to help, the sooner Soldat 1.5.1 can be released.
The Official Soldat Server 2.6.5 is now ready for download.
Change log and Download links attached to end of post.
Primary focus was ofcourse on bugs for this release. Unicode has been fixed in this binary, so I recommend everyone upgrades. There has also been a modification to the structure of the RefreshX remote admin command. All remote admin programs such as ARSSE should be updated to accommodate this change.
