December 31st, 2001Happy New Year!Another year passes, and people still play Paintball2, W00T!
December 29th, 2001Paintball II v1.731 for LinuxI got it to compile, but I can't get Q2 to run correctly in Linux, so I don't know if it actually works or not.  Someone with a Linux server grab it off of the Files page, test it, and email me with the results. :)  Again, all this is is a fix for the scoring/death messages.
December 24th, 2001Merry Christmas!W00t.
Paintball II v1.731 for Win32 ReleasedI still haven't gotten the Linux compile to work, so I'm just going to release the 1.731 server for Win32.  This is the same as 1.73, but the death messages and player scores are fixed.
December 19th, 2001Using the BBoard with IE 6For those of you who use Internet Explorer 6 and can't post to the BBoard, check this out.
1.73aThere's a new dll with the one line of code that b0rked the scoring up on the UMich servers now.  I'm trying to get linux to compile it as well; when that happens, we'll do a full release.  If you want the new dll, just bug Calrathan or me for it. :)
November 22nd, 2001Happy Thanksgivig 'n StuffNow that I have a break from school, I actually have a couple minutes to update the news. ;)

Sorry the last release got kinda screwed up and hasn't been fixed yet.  I removed a piece of needed code that was at the end of a really long line in some obsolete Quake2 code I was trimming out (didn't see the call to the function that took care of all the death messages and stuff because it went past the end of the screen, heh).  Not that any of that means anything to most of you, but to top it off, my computer decided to b0rk itself almost immediately after the release: the ATA/66 (hard drive) controller decided to quit working for no apparent reason, and Calrathan installed winXP on his computer, which screwed up the compiler, so he was also unable to get a fix out.  There will be a fix out shortly, though.  Of course, that depends on your definition of "shortly." ;)
