- Use `allow` rather than `filter`, as it checks for allowed commands
rather than prohibited commands.
- Allow userinfo variables to be created by the server.
Userinfo variables are now removed when disconnecting. Some servers use
userinfo variables for custom settings or to store temporary
information, which makes them irrelevant on other servers and uses space.
- Avoids conflicts with third-party DLLs (like SDL, OpenAL) which have no suffix.
- Easier to build an installer and document.
- More clarity as the architecture is already indicated in the archive name.
- Simplifies launchers & automation (no need to guess the architecture).
- The architecture is still visible when typing `version` in the console or when the executable starts
Rework the version string.
- Make the original game version appear first in the `version` variable.
- Use `com_target_shortversion` for the short version number.
- Use `com_target_version` for the original game version.
Some software, such as HLSW, as well as certain mods, check if the version string begins with "Medal of Honor ....". This commit makes these changes to ensure most software properly handles the game version.
In windowed mode, the mouse is no longer grabbed when one of the UI/console catcher is active. When a UI menu is active, the system's hardware cursor is shown, using the game's custom cursor texture, instead of simulating and rendering the cursor in-game.
* Add exports to load a raw image from the renderer
* Set the hardware cursor to the game's custom mouse cursor texture
* When mouse is not grabbed, the mouse gets updated with absolute mouse position, relative to the window position
Implement multi-master server list query and multi-master heartbeats. The server list is fetched from multiple masters to improve redundancy, reliability and performance. This improves multiplayer availability by implementing support for using multiple masters.
- The server sends an heartbeat to all masters at once
- The client can query up to 4 masters in parallel depending on their rate
20 is the bare minimum for players, any value below makes movements look jittery on a 20 fps server. 30 is the optimal value based on network variation and fps variations
The server list UI refresh the server list for the first time when drawing. In mohaa (not Spearhead nor Breakthrough), refreshserverlist is also called by clicking "browse internet servers" which causes the list to be queried twice
This adds a feature that makes it easy to join a populated low-ping server (matching criteria from configuration file). This feature has been available since MOHAA Breakthrough 2.30.
As the control is activated before, the connection should be done after the activation because ActivateControl() sends W_Activated to the UIFloatingWindow, which will cause ActivateControl() to be called again to activate the dialog's title bar button (and would deactivate the gamespy dialog)
