but there's still version check in client
so it won't join the game but instead tells player to update (WRONG VERSION! DO YOU WANT TO UPDATE?) - because server version > client version

actually it wasn't that hard

- patch function that returns version as string (used in gamespy replies)
- patch version that's used in netcode when client is connecting
- kill cd key check (these empty keyhashes don't have chance to pass)
- kill client checksum check (was lazy to patch it properly to recognize origin client, with it in place you get data differs error when connecting)

that's probably all

it'd surprise me if there wasn't a sharp decline

most of the people just try it because it's free
some won't like it, some will be discouraged by the massive number of teamkilling noobs

i'll test it tonight with more players than just myself and if i don't find any other problems, i'll share it

so that means that !commands are messed up too

to test, i just joined some random (empty) server with bfsm and issued !runnext
and it worked

(they probably have bfsm users with empty keyhashes and that now matches mine. and yours. and everyone's)

bah, why they have to mess up stuff that works instead of fixing real problems

i wish they would disable that voting crap and set rounds per map to 1

you forgot el alamein ;-)

what about allies beach spawn on iwo jima? is it considered an uncapturable enemy base?
there was some discussion some time ago in game, some admin was saying that attacking it is baseraping

if it's so, what's the perimeter? what's allowed?

anyone knows about this?

i could kill time waiting for spawn by trying to decipher those russians texts, i could do a word or 2 in 30 secs
