“We have just distributed a new server version named R7 to the server hosts. Early signs from the hosts are good with 20% less load on the server CPU, improved hit detection, Veteran rank handling is fixed so you should get your M1 Garand back now plus some other fixes to better help the server hosting companies and better management of Punkbuster IDs.”

All dedicated servers are currently patching to the new server build just released by DICE, R7, which has quite a few fixes:

Several common crash fixes. Especially those which have monitoring scripts that rely on the Remote Admin interface should see stability improvements.
PunkBuster can send commands to Remote Admin interface (so ‘pb_sv_task 0 -1 ’ works)
Veteran-rank handling corrected (it was broken in R6 and possibly earlier)

Hi all, back from my hiatus away from the internet, worldly worries and modern toilets. I’m just whiling away a few hours in the Bangkok Qantas lounge, as I got some cheap upgrades to business class (woohoo).

I know it’s nearly midnight, but surely one of you night-owls should be on IRC about now???

In any case, I’ll be back in full force tomorrow, and will post a few photos then.

In other news I just found out I’ve got to complete the APC Magazine Master Builder Semi-Final Challenge in the next few days. In short, I have to spec out an uber-pc, with no respect for value for money. The full description can be found here: http://apcmag.com/master-builder-semi-finalists.htm.

I’ll post my full entry once I’ve submitted it and you can give it the full IPX critique :)

See you all later.
