1.6 On the Way

[AngryYankee]

Great news - Patch 1.6 (w/ Map Pack 3) is finished & now in test over at Activision! Barring any problems popping up, it should be released in accordance with the PC Patching Process sticky atop this forum =).

Below is a list of what is included in the patch:

    * 3 new Multiplayer maps: Battery (mp_drum), Breach (mp_bgate), Revolution (mp_vodka)!
    * New Nazi Zombie map: Der Riese (nazi_zombie_factory), an all-new Zombie map set in a secret Nazi research facility featuring the Pack A Punch Machine, Teleporters, and many more undead hordes!
    * Exploits pertaining to Demo playback.
    * Favorites list now ignores filter settings.
    * Fixed S&D round counting error when roundlimit is reached.
    * New feature: in-game Add to Favorites.
    * Friends list: green online indicator.
    * Starting the game in Safe Mode will no longer toggle the “Soften Smoke Edges” graphic option.
    * Fixed various crashes.
    * Mods: Client will no longer join a modded Co-op server via Game Invite unless they have that mod loaded.
    * Mods: Client running a mod will be asked to unload the mod if they attempt to join an unmodded server.
    * Mods: All singleplayer levels can now be run with a mod loaded.

Additionally, we do expect a concurrent release of the Mod Tools 1.4 package, Linux dedicated 1.6 bins, and the Steam 1.6 day-of-date with this patch. More details on those will be made available once they get cleared through testing.

So touch up on those Zombies skills; Der Riese is on its way!

Regards,

Grill: Any chance of getting a graphic for 1.6 and Mod Tools 1.4 ready for when the patch is released?

Thanks Yank!  Yeah, we'll need graphics for the 1.6 patch with Map Pack 3, Mod Tools 1.4, and 1.6 Linux Server Patch...in the order of importance.  Get 'em up peeps!

I have no time. Let someone else take graphics now. I am very busy with school and work.

Maybe Yank or 64 can put one together?
