UTeamFix R9 goes BETA

[}TCP{Wolf]

UTeamFix 9 goes BETA officially. I would like some volunteering admins to install it and give it some SERIOUS testing!!

Get it here:
ftp://12.39.48.62/MODS/UTeamFix_R9_BETA.zip

For those of you unsure if it is worth the trouble, here is the changelist from release 8 to 9:

Release 9:
- Scoreboard now shows Team Kills (not in DM mode)
- Team Change does not influence scores
- Typekills can be turned off (DM only, not team!)
- Scoreboard now shows MOTD (Message Of The Day) if display bigger
or equal to 800x600 and you're actually on a server
- alternate human skin package replaced with the missing skins
filled with Infiltration team skins. Big thanks to
[Sixpack]Shambler and all people involved in Infiltration
development (lol that would include even me haha)
- FairPlay options added:
> TypeKills can be turned off (ignored), DM only
> Spawnkills can be turned off
- added "admin mutespecs" command to quickly (un)mute spectators
during game
- all new spectator HUD
> displays name and health of anyone in the display
> displays name and health of player in chasecam
> has the improved message display of the player HUDS :-D
- Scoreboard now displays Timelimit and Fraglimit (with a delay of
one mapchange in case it is changed during game)
- Spectators can view players with new command "viewid <id>"
- IP Address is logged AFTER a player enters (only as convenience)
The logging BEFORE login is complete can be inaccurate :/
- Added Networking settings
> FastTimeOut: disconnects on initial connect after 45 seconds
> MinTimeBetweenLogins: time delay before another login is
allowed after one login
- no eyeball / pawn joins (except for admins if they REALLY want 8)
- admin messages
- admins can see IPs manually in game (without ServerDog)
- forced respawn (optional)
- temporary kickban feature (based on mapchanges as "time")
- automatical team balance (Team only)
- setfraglimit / settimelimit for admins during game
- BUGFIX on Unreal 224 in teamgame, suicides (killer==none)
hurt wrong teamscore!
- added "Local Internet Effects >lite<"
- BUGFIX 224 team selecting standard skins (tss tss tss, Epic has
LOUSY coders...)
- added communication interfaces for Smartball's Antibot, BOZO's
IPLogger and Lesser Talent's KickBan utility
- added more admin commands

Per request and/or idea of -|H2O|-WingZero
- Scoreboard now shows Score and frags separated
- Scoreboard now has titles
- Scoreboard now shows online time of players
- in DM when game ends, you now see the WINNER instead of yourself,
(basic code idea by Smartball) this also works for bots :-D
in TEAM game, you see the player with the highest score of the
winning team. In all cases, if 2 players have the same score,
the one with less deaths is assumed winner (no further breakdown
on teamkills and frags...).
- new spectator class
> Spectators can use "specsay" to talk to other spectators
even when muted (messages not visible to players)
- TournamentMode (Simple) added - players fly around and need to
press fire before starting battle at first join
- People will stay in "non ready mode" when changing team during
"non ready" and will NOT be force-respawned
- Real Tournament mode added - all players click to signal I am
ready before match starts
- killsprees etc added (main code by Smartball)
- added Dual Automags (code by Smartball, based on Bane's Akimbo)
- added UTFSkaarjPlayer (code by Smartball, sound problem fixed
and made Skaarj SLIGHTLY more human like in size, collision
etc...) - The UTFSkaarjPlayer is automatically used when
players enter who have selected the (normal) Skaarj (and of
course bHumansOnly must be false)

Please note that it _SHOULD_ be all 224 compliant, so also 224 testers welcome! If anyone finds bugs, please include logs and ini files of server if possible and be as detailed as possible about related infos, number of players online, what they were doing etc etc etc...

The DM mode of it is running on TCP USA :-D

I took the liberty of also putting it on a bit faster mirror.. :
UTeamFix_R9_BETA.zip

... unbelievable on what server that BETA runs hahaha

I'm just waiting to talk to Smartball again for a few details but all in all I'm kinda done with it.

[}TCP{Wolf]

here we go...

ftp://12.39.48.62/MODS/UTeamFix_R9.zip

I've mailed Smartball before finalizing this and map voting did not make it into the mod I'm afraid.

Just get it and read the instructions carefully in the zip on how to set it up. Should be no problem and after a tricky bug fix it should be all 224/225/226 compliant

... and sorry I am soooo lazy mirroring

Development will continue over time, as minor bugs are revealed from real day use subsequent versions will be released (having a label noting exactly which version they are).

FOR PEOPLE GETTING VERSION CONFLICTS:
Clients (game machines) should not install this patch anyway, it is meant to be installed on servers only. You can still get a version conflict even when it is only in your cache. This special case of version conflict arises if you are on one server with it and go to another having a different one.

SOLVE: EXIT AND RESTART UNREAL!!! It is as easy as that!
