Odamex 0.5.4 released.

 

I am pleased to announce the release of Odamex 0.5.4. This release introduces important changes as we work towards 0.6 including experimental netdemo support and unlagged. Please refer to the release announcement at http://odamex.net for the latest news including the announcement of the new regularly scheduled Odamex Nitro event.

 

This release does not contain much targeted directly at Xbox. There are a few minor launcher fixes such as the button tooltip failing to display after certain launcher actions. I encourage everyone to update though as there are a lot of Odamex fixes and additions and this update is required to continue playing online.

 

If you installed Odamex 0.5.3 you may have found that the graphics quality decreased compared to previous releases. This was due to a configuration option being defaulted to a different value from previous releases. The option has been set back to the old default and a menu option has been added so that users can change the value. Even though the default has been changed back you will still need to adjust the option or reset your configuration file. The option in question can be found in the game client under Options->Set Video Mode->Detail Mode. For the best quality graphics set this option to "Normal".

 

I hope to see everyone online!
