Activision and Grey Matter have released a new patch for their FPS game.
Changes include an auto-updater, PunkBuster support, a new Ice multiplayer map and a mod button. Read more for download links and additional multiplayer as well as single player fixes...
Multiplayer issues addressed in 1.3: Miscellaneous exploit fixes and optimizations: - We've cleaned up many minor issues that have been uncovered since release of the 1.1 patch. Below is a list of some of the more significant issues squashed. - Allow Download for multiplayer assets: *It is now possible for you to turn on "Allow Downloads" from the MULTIPLAYER SETUP menu. This will allow you to download new maps, sound files, and PAK files directly from game servers. In other words, you no longer need to search the web for cool user-created Wolf maps. We strongly recommend that you restart your game after downloading new content to insure that it is used properly. We are not able to test or verify user content. Download at your own risk. We have no control over how big the downloads are. It is possible that the private server from which you are downloading the files from could shut down or change maps before the download is complete. If this happens, you will likely see a "GL_GetServer Command" error. This means your download has been interrupted and you were unable to get all the new assets. You should disconnect from that server, restart Wolf, and try again. - Flamethrower bugs: *A couple bugs with the flamethrower have been found and fixed. It is no longer possible to get the flame to travel through geometry, nor is it possible to multiply damage by bouncing the flame off multiple surfaces, nor will it be possible to prolong flame by chatting. - Documents lost in doorways: *We've fixed the bug that caused closing doors to remove objectives (documents) from the world. - Picking up weapon is no longer a quick reload: *Some people discovered that dropping and picking up a weapon was faster than reloading it. We've adjusted the functionality so this won't happen. - Dying to recharge Power Bar exploit: *When you die and are revived on the battlefield, the amount of charge in your Power Bar is retained from before you died. *No longer kicked when out of lives due to "inactivity timer" *It was discovered that people in a "Max Lives" game could use up all their lives, and then be kicked by the server due to inactivity. This has been fixed. - Public messages getting echoed: *A bug introduced in our 1.1 patch caused public messages to echo. This has been fixed. - Fix for reviving players on moving objects: *There was a visual bug caused when a medic revived players on or near large moving objects. This has been fixed. Localization fixes: - We tweaked some translations and fixed some problems with the menus. Additional Nvidia GeForce support: *Nvida GeForce owners can now switch the fog type under the OPTIONS / GAME OPTIONS from the main menu, or in-game using the OPTIONS menu. GL Extensions for Matrox users: *Owners of Matrox G400 & G500 families can now enable GL Extensions in the Options menu. It is highly recommended that you download the latest Matrox drivers from www.matrox.com. Single player issues addressed in 1.3: Graphic corruption from flamethower or tesla gun: - We fixed the corruption caused by leaving the guns idle on some cards. Problem loading games: - It was discovered that hitting the "default" button in the Options menu made it impossible to load old saves. This has been fixed. Enhanced support for ATI Truform: - Users of ATI Truform will find more options and the potential for more visible improvement. Once you've turned on ATI Truform, you can select different degrees from the Options menu. The game's performance will vary depending on hardware and the setting. Verify that your ATI card supports Truform, and make sure you have the latest drivers from ATI if you experience any problems. Localization fixes: - We tweaked some translations and fixed some problems with the menus. Miscellaneous optimizations and fixes: - We've cleaned up many minor issues that have been uncovered since release of the game. - GL Extensions for Matrox users: *Owners of Matrox G400 & G500 families can now enable GL Extensions in the Options menu.
