We are planning to release beta4 tomorrow at 16:00 GMT. Servers running 4.0 beta3 are required to update to beta4, since beta3 and beta4 are incompatible.
The changes that will have to be made are:
- Install the new version.
- Make sure to use the new map files or else 4.0 clients will be unable to join. If you want to revert to pre-4.0 maps, use the resource downloader just like for any custom map.
- Update anticheat.ini to include the new map hashes (or use the provided anticheat.ini if you did not add custom hashes).
- Port/recompile any modifications. Plugins are likely binary compatible with the new version, but recompilation is recommended to be sure.
- There are two new server.ini settings:
-- To disable kill messages on >=2.9 clients, use: SendPlayerKillsToNewClients=0
-- To disable camera shakeing for 4.0 clients, use: DisableCameraShake=1
The beta4 files are available from the Tiberian Technologies download page.
This 24h notice is a service to server owners, who hereby get some time to prepare for the new release, as otherwise their servers will be unjoinable for 4.0 players until they have updated. Please let us know if you (server owners) appreciate this, since so far we have not received any feedback on that. If you think it should be a longer notice, also let us know. If we don't get any feedback, we will save ourselves the trouble of doing it this way next time, and just release immediately.
