Features:

LAN party functional, and works when Steam is in Offline Mode.

Fixes:

Forcing player movement physics to be synchronous, eliminating movement latency at the cost of some CPU usage. This is a GPU heavy game so you probably won't notice the CPU hit.
Fixed a bug where switching teams while using bright model option would cause players to have wrong color. Potentially fixes the issue without bright models as well.
Fixed a crash on mid-game join during map loading when the Lasso mutator was enabled and someone got lassoed.
Fixed a rare crash in player physics during map load while joining a game in progress.
Fixed an uninitialized variable in ragdolls physics, which may cause crashing or just general weirdness in ragdoll behavior.

That are the latest.

So basically it's a few bytes of code fixes that result in a 870MB download.

You could also be expecting 10 new maps within this size. Just sayin

That's the change log from the patch that dropped 3 days ago.

No more crashes.

Features:

- Community Designed Level Blue Rooms are now available to play on. (Custom Matches and Bots Only)
- Notifying clients when they can't join a team because it is full.
- Widened the message log by 100 px and made them stay up a little longer. Makes it a little easier to notice and read chat messages.

Fixes:

- Fixed the player physics bug where when you jump from or walk off of a steep slope you completely lose air control. The slope was still affecting velocity when you are in the air.
- Fixed the "Reference counted object deleted twice" crash mid-game and when you exit the game.
- Decreased the title server UDP packet re-send delay by half. Will improve response times when there's packet loss.
- Fixed a crash in the stats system during bots games.
- Fixed an improper shutdown order potentially crashing the game on exit.

Just played for half an hour or so and happy to say no crashes.

disregard last comment i think it might have been something wonky on my end sorry

800 MB patch for some coding related fixes?

bifelis · 05-21-2012, 08:33 AM

to be fair, if it wasn't mentioned here, I for instance wouldn't have known that the patch was so big, because it downloaded quickly for me

RED-FROG · 05-21-2012, 09:01 AM

There's also 3 new maps now (community made - alpha stage maps) but I can't say if the last update added them.

It did (or at least that is when I first noticed them)

For those wanting to play them: Turn ALL lighting and fancy effects off if you want to test the new maps.
