Title: Build 30
Post by: jitspoe on May 07, 2010, 01:24:09 AM
Only had time to get an update installer together.  I'll work on the full install + Linux files next week.

Windows Build 16+ to Build 30 update:
http://digitalpaint.org/files/temp/paintball2_build030_update_pretest2.exe

Windows Build 30 Full Install:
http://digitalpaint.org/files/temp/paintball2_build030_full_pretest2.exe

Linux update:
http://digitalpaint.org/files/temp/paintball2_build030_linux_patch_pretest1.tar.gz

As always, with the pretest builds, if any kind of exploit is found, you will be responsible for installing a new (or old) build to fix it.

- Tweak: Switched to Visual Studio 2008 express.
- Tweak: Tweaked default volume and attenuation so sounds at a distance are easier to hear. 5/2/2010
- Media: Re-recorded carbine sounds at a different angle so they sound less clangy.

It can't load or download maps.
I have the maps, but it won't load them. Just stops at the loading screen listing this message:

Requesting maps/ub_rooftop.bsp
Failed to open maps/ub_rooftop.tmp
Requesting sounds/ub_sounds/traffic.wav
**************************

I can load the games solo, though.

I like the old (b29) carbine sound more. The new one sounds too much like plastic for me, but maybe thats more realistic.

Sounds like you have bad drivers.  What OS and video card do you have?

Yeah, I'll try to fix that for the official release -- it's only a couple pixels, though, right?

Are these issues new to build 30?  Did build 29 work OK?  Try different drivers, and if that doesn't work, I would suggest spending like $20 on an old nVidia card...


Seems there was an issue with the death camera crashing when somebody was killed by a non-client -- good thing I didn't do an official release yet.  I have the fix up on EV1 now (hopefully it won't crash anymore).

Build 29 works fine, just downgraded actually. So it would work. Not sure how to get new drivers. Anyways, thats all.

Try this: http://www.s3graphics.com/en/drivers/index.aspx

Really odd that you'd have these issues in b30, as hardly anything has changed in rendering since b29.

Build 0.30 seems to have fixed the previous' 'undefined symbol: _vsnprintf' crash in the Linux client - Thanks !

Not played it for long yet but seems fine, it seems faster for some reason (could just be recent Nvidia driver update...)

Maybe, on the linux server it works. Does it work, if a client throws a paint grenade, disconnects and after he left the server a client dies through the grenade? It's hard to test that.

There comes the message "New version available" 2-3 times, if a friend want connect to a build 30 server with build 29. After that, he can play on the server.

Doesn't it use the "LatestClientBuild: 29"-Info from http://dplogin.com/serverlist.php ?

Is it just me being such an idiot that can't install the new build or is it the build's fault?
I had to convert back to build 29 in order to play, so as far as I'm concerned, build 30 is unplayable.

T3RR0R15T: I don't think the grenade thing would crash.  If there's no client, or the client is dead, it won't track him.

The "new version" message is just there to encourage people to upgrade when it's not forced.  I think there's like a 30% chance of seeing it.

blaa: Anti-cheat stuff, mostly, and technically all builds are tests.

lester: Sounds like your network traffic is somehow being corrupted when downloading a file.  I've not had that issue installing a fresh copy of the game and downloading stuff off of servers.  Also, the download code has not changed for several builds.  I suspect the issue lies in your network adapter, router, firewall, or ISP.


Full install is up on the first post - please test it out.

Is it this?

I think it's fixed in the linux version.  Uploading a new windows version now.

If been playing for several days now and not seen the killcam crash (i've been playing on servers that have the feature)

Also my previous random seg fault issue (that had been going on for a while) has now also stopped - i.e : -http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=16798.msg177452

However I have had various changes,  A new linux firewall (lipfire) , new drivers and new OS (currently only tested in Ubuntu 10.04 - yes Ubuntu that a slagged off in the past - new build has a fair bit of legacy code cleaned out of gnome and the entire system seems slightly snappier (still use arch as main OS)

Anyway somehow the really annoying previous issue seems completely gone !

Are there any code changes in the later build that should have made the game faster ?
(remember the last working Linux client build was 27) - as it really seems a bit faster/more responsive  (also maybe more to do wit OS/driver updates)

Whatever the cause of the fix/improvements is - thanks !

It's sad that you spend your time going into people's servers and start talking smack completely unprovoked, get kicked as a first offense, banned as a second, then come back a few days later to simply talk more smack, get banned again, and cry on the forums. I could tell you're a great committee member.

________________________________________________________________

Now, for the grown-ups: I'm experiencing lag when using build 30, but when I revert back to build 29 the lag goes away. This lag is NOT server side, I have visited multiple servers as well as went on my own in which I never experience lag and ping from 7-15. I've also lowered my graphics/texture settings to make sure it wasn't my hardware and that the build 30 upped my video settings on it's own and I simply didn't notice it. Any ideas?

Considering the pure immaturity of the NRG "kids" I sincerely doubt that Jusu entered their server talking "smack".
They ban just about anyone. I've even been banned for no real reason other than I apparently wasn't liked.

Jusu is VERY well spoken and grown up, please refrain from speaking such falsities. There is no need to flame.

The NRG server is also "Home Run" which means it has horrible random lag spikes, perhaps you are running into some bad luck when you update to build 30?
Either that or you are using Win 7 which I have heard from a couple people that they are experience network lag issues.

Lol easy on buddy. I don't know what exactly happened and Jusu may not have been right, but isn't it a little immature as well to kick/ban him for having criticism on your behavior? :P

Actually I understand his reaction. Why do you spam around that Build 30 is laggy, etc.? New players might pick this up and quit the game before getting to know it, because "someone said this game is bad". Isn't the forum the best place to discuss any bugs?

On-topic; not enough knowledge to answer your question

First and foremost, i'm not a child. And the only two users who have ever been temp-banned is Jusu and yourself under another name. You were temp-banned for the same reason as Jusu. Do not say otherwise, I have the logs and possibly some screenshots to prove it.

As for your input, I do not run Win7, so I do not fall under that. But thank you.

New players might pick this up and quit the game before getting to know it, because "someone said this game is bad". As you are the first one reporting this bug(s) 2/3 weeks after release, I assume the problem is indeed on your side, and not build 30.

On-topic; not enough knowledge to answer your question

You are completely mis-informed. He was not kicked for criticizing my behavior, he was kicked for talking crap about my personal/clan server unprovoked. He then comes back and I say that he's welcome to stay as long as he doesn't continue (I question why. that if the server lags for him and if he hates the server so much, why does he chose to stay and play in my server?) but he decides to continue talking smack which is why he was temp-banned. I made sure to take screenshots since he's a committee member and it will be his word against mine if anyone complains to me.

As for me "spamming"/parading that build 30 is laggy this did not happen the way you think. I ran build 30 and booted up my personal server and started experiencing choppy unexplained lag, so I mentioned it in my own server, which only had about 4-5 users in it at the time, all of which were my friends and are my server's regulars, that:

Quote
[17:49:34] [NRG]UnLeaSh: BUILD 30 MAKES ME LAG

Then I asked if they had the same issues themselves, so I could see if it wasn't just me.

So I am not anywhere near in the wrong here, and the truth is being twisted, but I won't have that.

Anyway, for the most part i've solved the situation and it was due to minor hardware issues, I had to tweak some more settings to fix this.

Thanks for the input everyone, Have a nice day.

People talk crap about alot of things.  uR servers used to lag soooo much, yet noone got kicked for saying anything about it, they just bought new servers, which in turn were a lot better.  Don't kick people from your server for something like that.  Consider it feedback, and do something about it.

Oh and you probably don't get lag on your own servers because of the fact that if your getting 7-15 ping, its most likely home run, so you have a direct connection to it...

Not relevant. My only clear rule is to be respectful in my server, when a random join's up and immediately starts saying things like:

[18:46:35] [ELIM] martinlawrence: home servers are aweful!
[18:46:44] martinlawrence: get a real one

unprovoked, I don't take any personal offense to it, I just don't like him undermining my server in front of all my regulars. For a committee member, he should know not to bash someone's server simply because he doesn't like it, he should just leave if he lags, play on his preferred server, and shouldn't complain about getting kicked since he doesn't like the server anyway (in turn i'm doing him a favor). The door is still open to him as it has been since the server started, and I don't care if he wants to willingly come in, know he's gonna lag his ass off and play bad, as long as he realizes there's nothing he can do about it then he'll be fine.

Anyway, for a home-based server, the only people who ping high or lag are those who are far from where my server is based. Of course it will have spikes once in a while, but which server doesn't?

If you're going to use logs, use it showing the whole event. People complaining it's laggy, and then you ban instantly anyone who says it's because of the bad server itself. Those logs aren't even from the time you complained about build 30...

I actually had a nice chat with one of your clan members who was willing to chat about it in a pub, he says you all talk about how bad the home server is anyways, why ban someone when they say the same thing?

Now this thread is about build 30, you we're telling people in your pub that it's build 30 that causes lag. When I try to tell them it's not build 30 but the server, I get banned, so I came in here to warn people that it is not build 30, and hope they wouldn't listen to you in the matter.
due to minor hardware issues
It seems that you were mistaken in the matter also, hence why I wanted to warn people of the accusation of build 30 in the first place. You say you then asked other peoples opinions in the server, I wouldn't know, you banned instantly before even asking a question or opinion... Please don't come in here arguing about why you banned me or about your home server, when my concern was about build 30 and people being told false information about it.

Those logs were from your initial kick and then follow-up ban, they were produced so that anyone who questioned me would have a general idea of as to why you would be kicked for a similar offense at another point in time, in case you bashed my server again. I would also like to see evidence of those others whom I have "ban[ned] instantly" for saying "it's laggy."

I actually had a nice chat with one of your clan members who was willing to chat about it in a pub, he says you all talk about how bad the home server is anyways, why ban someone when they say the same thing?

I would like to see this supposed conversation of myself talking about how bad my own server is, as well as the chat you had with my clan member.

Now this thread is about build 30, you we're telling people in your pub that it's build 30 that causes lag. When I try to tell them it's not build 30 but the server, I get banned, so I came in here to warn people that it is not build 30, and hope they wouldn't listen to you in the matter.It seems that you were mistaken in the matter also, hence why I wanted to warn people of the accusation of build 30 in the first place. You say you then asked other peoples opinions in the server, I wouldn't know, you banned instantly before even asking a question or opinion... Please don't come in here arguing about why you banned me or about your home server, when my concern was about build 30 and people being told false information about it.

[17:49:34] [NRG]UnLeaSh: BUILD 30 MAKES ME LAG
[17:49:36] [xP]Color: we jsut switched it
[17:49:39] [xP]Color: ye
[17:49:40] [CC]martinlawrence: no, its your server
[17:49:44] [CC]martinlawrence: its bad
[17:49:49] [CC]martinlawrence was kicked
[17:49:49] [CC]martinlawrence disconnected.
[17:50:14] [ELIM] [NRG]UnLeaSh: dude
[17:50:18] [ELIM] [NRG]UnLeaSh: im spiking in my own server
[17:50:22] [NRG]UnLeaSh: wtf is with build 30
[17:50:27] [NRG]UnLeaSh: did this happen to you too color?
[17:50:38] [ELIM] [xP]Color: well its ur server makleing me lag
[17:50:41] [ELIM] [xP]Color: but idk about u

Now, you are obviously going to state that you were trying to defend build 30, when all you were doing is clearly bashing my server, don't deny it either, because you and I both well know that I will not lag and spike in a server that I am directly connected to, and that the lag that I was experiencing at said moment did not derive/was caused by my server, so the following statement

[17:49:40] [CC]martinlawrence: no, its your server
[17:49:44] [CC]martinlawrence: its bad

was taken as another offense in my server, which is why you were temp-banned from it.

Like I said a few posts ago, I mentioned that build 30 made me lag with no explanation and that I had asked others if the same had happened to them upon downloading and running build 30. I DID NOT accuse build 30 of being a laggy build, I only stated that I personally experienced lag while using it.

As for my posting on this thread, I have already discussed my own problem with build 30, my problem has also been solved, thus any other statements that I have posted which you feel strayed off-topic, were only in my defense upon question.

Since I no longer need to post here, I shall not. I will be putting this behind me and if you feel there is any further discussion that needs to be done Justinph5, you can send me a personal message.

Thank you.

I still have the need to post here.

What the intercourse?

The last time I was kicked from a server was just for the hell of it.  Seriously though, probably when I was pinging 400 on a euro server when I had no idea what 'ping' was.  Kicking people from a server for saying that is absurd.  If my IRC could log (since I dont use mIRC), I could find countless quotes of people saying that Vanitys servers lagged.  He doesn't take it as an offence though, he looks into it, and after I did too it happened to be someone else doing some heavy working on the server, due to it being a VPS.  Use the feedback to generate something better.  That's all it is, feedback, in any form.  No need for this kicking business.

Think of it this way, Jusu is saying something about the server.  You kick him.  You are not personally attacked, you are given information you may want to look into.  You or a clanmate kicking Jusu, now THAT is a personal attack.

Johnyboy - I think I have the answer (someone correct me if i'm wrong..)

Answer:  Norton is the biggest piece of resource zapping excrement ever.

The reason norton is 'protecting' you is because a virus has been found in 1 file in the mirror of sourceforce -  voxel.dl.sourceforge.net
- this shouldn't surprise anyone as there are 100 000's of files hosted there..

If you read the link you sent the actual file is

http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/project/ophcrack/ophcrack/3.3.1/ophcrack-win32-installer-3.3.1.exe  - which has absolutely nothing to do with digital paint - this is how absolute rubbish Norton is...

Seriously get rid of Norton it gives your computer AIDS, choose a different AV, one that allows you to use the internet properly.

Or better still change to an OS where you don't (yet) need AV at all (for desktop use)

 (Ubuntu is pretty easy..)

Looks like Norton had an issue with where the file was downloaded from, not the file itself.  Try grabbing the pretest2 file from the first post in this thread and see if it has the same issue.

Post by: Johnyboy on May 27, 2010, 10:07:03 AM
Well, I did what you said and Norton continues to block it. The reason that they gave was that not many norton users had downloaded the file and therefore was unsafe. Ill just disable norton for a while and then run it. Thats probably the only way of getting it.

I use Malwarebytes, it's pretty good. Got the full version free :]. It's like a fire wall and you can choose to scan stuff, my old AV had found no viruses/harmful things, then I got this and it found over 30. So, it definitely has potential. Try it. And Norton is a little annoying because it scan everything literally everything. Stuff that doesn't have to do with the program you got. It's bull dung! Get rid of it, please!

Apparently random BSP leaves aren't being drawn. That is a mystery. The inversion is also very confusing as it's only affecting the 3d rendering, 2D is fine... And judging by the way your text looks quite dark, your card can't handle transparency very well. Did all of these problems start with build 30?

I searched the forums and found you posted you had a S3 ProSavageDDR card, so here is a link to the latest drivers from S3 (for windows XP):
http://drivers.s3graphics.com/en/download/drivers/legacy/ProSavageDDR_420/S3G_ProSavageDDR_winxp_v139433.exe

Hopefully they'll fix the problems you're having, but if not, it may be down to the changes jitspoe made to solve problems with other legacy video cards - the only real advice that can be given for a permanent solution is to save up some money and get a new PC.
Title: Re: Build 30
Post by: Wyze on May 30, 2010, 12:51:00 PM
The somewhat transparent walls were always a problem, they go on and off. The only thing i noticed in build 30 was the inversion and messed up graphics on my part. I have tried to update my driver using that like you said. But during installation, it asks to put in a disk. This graphic card is from 2004ish. I don't have the disk. Can you not force build 30 when entering a server, or I won't be able to play when I get unbanned, and you never know this might have happened to other people that play this game, but aren't in the community so didn't post anything.

Hello Jitspoe,

The paintball2_build030_update.exe is not detected by Symantec products. Just as you supposed, it had an issue with the server the file was hosted on. In fact what being detected is ophcrack-win32-installer-3.3.1.exe which is hosted on the server. In light of further investigation and analysis, Symantec has found it to be a risk and will continue with the detection.

There are very big lags on our server with build 30 (server + client). We changed nothing from the server, only updated the files paintball2 and gamei386.so. Very often after a lag, a new player entered the game. So it looks like the lags come, if a player connects (70%) or disconnects (30%) with a chance of 33% (that it lags).

What kind of lag?  Like a graphical hitch or network lag?  I can't think of anything that would have changed relating to clients connecting.  Does it happen on the EV1 servers, or any other build 30 servers?

The bouncing up and down on spawn is actually a code bug, not a problem with the map.  I've fixed this for the next release.  I didn't even realize it was there until I tried playing the map on an older server.

This bug was fixed with build 25 and is back now. Can you please fix it again?
