Właśnie ukazała się najnowsza łatka przeznaczona do Quake 4, oznaczona numerkiem 1.4.2. Jest ona zwieńczeniem dwóch poprzednich wersji Beta, które wprowadzały wile zmian i usprawnień. Nowa łatka poprawia m.i. kod fizyki, drobne zmiany w kodzie sieciowym, poprawiony dźwięk i jeszcze parę innych. Poza tym warto zaznaczyć, że po zainstalowaniu nowej łatki nasze stare demka nie będą już kompatybilne z grą.

1.4.2 Point Release :

• player lean, player models lean in the direction of movement

use g_playerLean to scale or disable the effect (client side)

• fix wallhugging on ramps

fix also makes ramps slightly faster

• horizontal speed fully maintained when crouch sliding and hitting a ramp

previous version had a little dip

1.4.1 had a bug that caused a sharp speed drop (this is also fixed)

• RG ammo box 10->7
• si_fps limited to 90fps for q4mp/, now declared in gamecode so mods can change their max
• predict weapon changes for the local client. more responsive on high ping

(can be turned off with net_clientPredictWeaponSwitch 0)

• revert the projectile code to 1.4.0, not trying to predict projectiles anymore

the prediction code of 1.4.1 can be enabled with g_predictProjectiles 1 (client side)

(was causing too many bad artifacts)

• reworked the hit sounds / hit feedback propagation. fixed skipping problems
• change network demo extension to include the protocol number

for Quake 4 1.4.2, the extension is .ndmo85

• added r_skipSky for a cheap black sky
• fix a crash in single player (sound related)

• s_useOcclusion no longer cheat protected (can be changed by network clients now)
