QuakeWorld Server Distribution Plan
Disruptor (Christian Antkow), the QuakeWorld main man, and master of the master-server, let me know that the Revco page has a very significant update: The news that the Server software would be distributed in advance of the client software ("soon"). This of course only makes sense, otherwise five minutes after the client is released we'll have 5,000,000 users trying to log into two servers. Shortly after that I got word from the source of the distribution (who'll remain nameless, not that anyone around here likes to hound people), filling me in on the plan, and I am comfortable that this is going to work out with a minimum of bloodshed. Stay tuned for further details...

QuakeWorld Newsflash Part III
There's a new update to the RevCo page pointing out that the first batch of clan skins have been released (also available on on Stomped). Thanks for that to Ozzie.
The RevCo page was updated earlier with Disruptor's QuakeWorld server docs and this note (thanks Greg_Gibson aka angryHelmut):
Expect the server to be uploaded "shortly"
Here are the server documents in text and HTML formats.

QuakeWorld Server Released
Get qwsv1213.zip here or from id's ftp site or Stomped, and the first batch of clan skins right here. Here are the server documents in text and HTML formats. (Thanks to Don Peterson and Benjamin Alexander for spotting the screwed links). To install the skins, create a \quake\qw\skins\ subdirectory and unzip this file into it.

QuakeWorld Client Released
Here's the moment you've been waiting for, the QuakeWorld Client (1.4 MB). Here's the read me, the server (202 KB), the server read me, the new base skin file (17 KB), and the new skins file (1.4 MB). By the way, everyone who couldn't stand waiting a second longer for the client owes a large debt to Christian (and others I'm sure), who toiled all the way through the night on this.
Here is the lowdown from id Software's Michael Abrash on the "Cannot load wdirxxf.dll" message.
"Unless you want to run -dibonly (which is usually slower, and is a lot slower at low-res such as 320x200), you *must* have all 6 files (wdir62.dll, wdir62f.dll, pmpro62.dll, pmpro62f.dll, wdirnop.com, and wdirnop.pif. You must also have the latest versions, dated 12/9/96."
Michael asks that everyone avoid distributing just qwcl.exe (or at least, if you do, not to send him or John Carmack mail asking why things aren't working).

New QuakeWorld Server
The new version of the Quake World server, has been released on id's FTP site. A different version, with the same filename was uploaded shortly after the original, so if you downloaded it early on, you should get it again. Once again, in advance of the client to allow servers to be online when the client is released. Also now available is QPlug, the browser plug-in that accompanied the new QW. Unfortunately, the new master is not compatible with the current masters/clients, so this should be kept in mind when switching over. More information can be found on QuakeWorld Central "The Official Home of QuakeWorld" which is now open for business.

QuakeWorld Central Update II
The reference to a new QuakeWorld server on QuakeWorld Central is the second version that was uploaded last night. To make sure you have the right one, simply verify that you have version 1.51. From earlier, thanks kolinahr for pointing out there was an update answering the many frequently asked questions about the new QuakeWorld.

New QuakeWorld Client/QSpy Release
Hot off the presses is the new QuakeWorld Client and QuakeSpy (1.6 MB) all rolled into one. The new QuakeWorld is version 1.50, and is only compatible with the new servers (currently version 1.51). The new program is an installer that will install everything for you. Hint of the day: if the installation suggests rebooting, believe it. In honor of the event, Disruptor's .plan and the RevCo page have been updated. My old buddy Moogle wrote in to point out the most recent addition to Dis' .plan to save a little wear and tear in Dis' mailbox:
- U_REMOVE on full update: We know about this. It shouldn't be a serious
error. We'll try to fix it.

After you get the skin files from ftp.idsoftware.com (currently,

qw/skins, you should run the shell script 'fixskins.sh' that you can find in
the qw/skins directly distributed with this archive.
Linux qwsv will always look for lowercase file names first.

New QuakeWorld
Here is version 1.55 of the QuakeWorld Client Installer. Here is the upgrade if you have the previous version, here is the patch to upgrade from 1.50 server. BTW, it's the Birthday of Jack "Morbid" Mathews (part of the QW Team as well as Team QSpy), so everybody who sees him today, be sure to give him his Birthday noogies.

QuakeWorld 2.0 and QSpy 5.3
The cool happenings Disruptor referred to in his .plan have happened (sort of): the release of the new QuakeWorld and QSpy. The new GLQuake and GLQW Client were also supposed to be released, but a last second bug was discovered, so the new GL clients with the cool 8 bit texture mode are still unreleased. But here is the QuakeWorld 2.0 client install (1.2 MB) which includes QuakeSpy 5.3 (morbid says that a separate installer for the new QSpy should be available Monday). id has also unveiled their new look for their website, designed by Walter |2| Costinak, and you really should check it out, it is the beans.

QuakeWorld Server 2.01
Version 2.01 of the QuakeWorld server has been released (as noted in Disruptor's .plan) on id's FTP site. Here's the Win95/NT version (223 KB), the Linux version (200 KB), and the Solaris version (448 KB). Jack Mathews updated his .plan saying we would probably have to wait for next week for the 2.01 client (they are currently unable to access the source code for the installer), which will fix the color glitches (he also is not at liberty to reveal his cool news yet).

New GLQuake & QuakeWorld
Version 2.1 of QuakeWorld (1.7 MB, includes GameSpy 1.01) as well as version 0.96 of GLQuake (381 KB), which includes a new and improved GL miniport, have been released by id Software, as detailed in this email from Zoid:
QuakeWorld 2.1 (in several client and server versions), GLQuake 0.96 and Regular Quake clients for Sun Solaris Sparc Stations and X11 under Linux have been released tonight.
QuakeWorld 2.1 is mostly just a maintenance release that addresses a few bugs that appeared in 2.0. It also has a full installer for Windows 95/NT that 2.0 did not include.
GLQuake 0.96 features a new GL miniport for 3DFX VooDoo chipsets that improves speed a bit. It also has a new user friendly installer. The new Sun Solaris clients for Quake and QuakeWorld appear with the cooperation of Sun Microsystems.
The new X11 versions of Quake and Quakeworld for Linux offer a new avenue of play under the Linux operating system.
I hope everyone enjoys this new release.

New GLQuake Releases
Zoid sent along word that some new GLQuake releases are available: GLQuake 0.97 (393 KB) fixes the sprite bug from the previous version, and adds independent console sizing (such as a 320x200 scaled console when running at 640x480) and support for SGI Multitexture extensions for high-end Voodoo (Obsidian) and other 3D cards. Also newly released is GLQuake for Linux (449 KB) which requires a 3DFX Voodoo Graphics card (not Voodoo RUSH) and Linux 2.0, and finally, GLQuakeWorld for Linux (412 KB), which again requires 3DFX Voodoo Graphics (not Voodoo RUSH) and Linux 2.0. Also available on id's ftp.site.

New QuakeWorld
Zoid has released version 2.2 of QuakeWorld, as a windows client (1.9 MB), a Linux client (660 KB), a Windows server (232 KB), a Linux server (188 KB), as well as server ports for Linux Alpha (220 KB), Sun Solaris x86 (202 KB), BDSI (287 KB), and Sun Solaris Sparc (202 KB). As noted in his .plan, version 2.2 is not compatible with version 2.1 and earlier. As his .plan also notes, this update focuses on cheating and security issues, and brings the feel of QuakeWorld closer in line with the feel of network Quake. Here's the update:
I've released QuakeWorld 2.2. I've also added a couple new ports for this release: Sun Solaris x86 and Linux Alpha for servers. The new QuakeWorld should work through various broken routers that previous versions of QuakeWorld did not work with before.
QuakeWorld 2.2 is NOT COMPATIBLE with old versions (2.1 or earlier).
The changes focused on security, cheating and gameplay. QW2.2 plays as close as possible to the original Quake, but with the benefits of prediction. My beta testers were very excited about the changes, and I hope everyone will enjoy them.
Please note: Team Fortress 2.6 currently doesn't work with QW2.2. The Team Fortress team is aware of this and will be releasing a small patch for servers ASAP.
As always, QuakeWorld is an unsupported product. If you have any problems tho, you can report them to [email protected].
The release packages:
QuakeWorld Client For Windows 95 and NT
QuakeWorld Server for Windows 95 and NT
QuakeWorld Client for Linux i386
QuakeWorld Server for Linux i386
QuakeWorld Server for Linux Alpha
QuakeWorld Server for Sun Solaris x86
QuakeWorld Server for BSDI3.0 i386
QuakeWorld Server for Sun Solaris (sparc)

QuakeWorld 2.21 [4:06 PM EDT]
QuakeWorld 2.21 is out on id's FTP Site (thanks Redwood), as usual in a variety of flavors. Here are local copies (rah GamesNET FTP!). Full Client including GameSpy 1.53 for Windows95/NT (1.9 MB), Upgrade from 2.20 only (must have GameSpy 1.53 or 2.0beta2 installed) for Windows95/NT (589 KB), Server for Windows95/NT (223 KB), Client for i386 Linux 2.0 (662 KB), Server for i386 Linux 2.0 (190 KB), Server for Alpha Linux 2.0 (221 KB), Server for Solaris x86 2.5.1 (203 KB) Server for BSDI/i386 3.0 (289 KB), and Server for Solaris 2.5.1 on Sparc (201 KB). Here's Zoid's .plan update:
QuakeWorld 2.21 has been released that should address some of the problems in the previous release. Players and server operators are STRONGLY urged to upgrade to this version since many of the new features in 2.2 have been updated and bugs have been fixed.
The 2.21 versions will interroprate with 2.20 versions, but with some loss in performance. So, yes you can play on a 2.20 server with 2.21, or play with 2.20 on a 2.21 server, but you'll get the best gameplay and performance using a 2.21 client on a 2.21 server.
Here's the files:
Full QuakeWorld Client including GameSpy 1.53 for Windows95/NT
Upgrade from 2.20 only (must have GameSpy 1.53 or 2.0beta2 installed) for Windows95/NT
QuakeWorld Server for Windows95/NT
QuakeWorld Client for i386 Linux 2.0
QuakeWorld Server for i386 Linux 2.0
QuakeWorld Server for Alpha Linux 2.0
QuakeWorld Server for Solaris x86 2.5.1
QuakeWorld Server for BSDI/i386 3.0
QuakeWorld Server for Solaris 2.5.1 on Sparc

New QuakeWorld Beta [11:43 PM EDT]
Zoid updated his .plan with word that he's released a beta version of QuakeWorld 2.29. Here's the update:
I've released a public BETA of QuakeWorld 2.29. This release is not compatible with previous versions. Please note that this is a beta only release and not meant for general use.
You may get the BETA from:
ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quakeworld/beta/qw229BETA.zip
This 2.29 BETA release contains servers and clients for Windows (Win32) and Linux i386 ONLY.
I'm looking for bug reports and suggestions about this new release. This 2.29 version should address the problems that were present in the 2.21 release. Once the beta test is finished (length depends on what problems are found, etc), I will release a 2.30 public version.
Here is the list of changes:
- 2.1 movement code mostly restored, but sv_friction is still 4 (like NQ) and the gravity application matches NQ. This should fix some bugs on maps people saw in 2.21 and fix some other errors.
- Complete rewrite of the reliable data handling. NO MORE OVERFLOWS.
- Client to Server (from you to the server) data is about 25% less bandwidth
using delta compression. This means you can bump up your cl_maxfps by about 20%. This will have a minor impact on lag.
- QuakeWorld now allows one external command packet until server connection. This makes QPlug work again as well as older versions of QuakeSpy/GameSpy.
- In GLQWCL, the size of the eyes.mdl is double sized. In GL, the default eyes model was much, much harder to see than in software. This should help even it out.
- New spectator camera. A 'through the eyes' view of the player you are tracking. To enable this, type "cl_chasecam 1" when in spectator mode and chasing a player.
Here's a local copy (965 KB) on GamesNET FTP.

QuakeWorld 2.29 BETA Readme
BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA BETA
This is a public beta release of 2.29. I'm doing a public beta to get more
feedback and wider testing. This release contains both Win32 and Linux
versions (other platforms will follow after the beta period).
What's new in 2.29:
- 2.1 movement code mostly restored, but sv_friction is still 4 (like NQ)
and the gravity application matches NQ. This should fix some bugs on maps
people saw in 2.21 and fix some other errors.
- Complete rewrite of the reliable data handling. NO MORE OVERFLOWS.
- Client to Server (from you to the server) data is about 25% less bandwidth
using delta compression. This means you can bump up your cl_maxfps by about
20%. This will have a minor impact on lag.
- QuakeWorld now allows one external command packet until server connection.
This makes QPlug work again as well as older versions of QuakeSpy/GameSpy.
- In GLQWCL, the size of the eyes.mdl is double sized. In GL, the default
eyes model was much, much harder to see than in software. This should
help even it out.
- New spectator camera. A 'through the eyes' view of the player you are
tracking. To enable this, type "cl_chasecam 1" when in spectator mode and
chasing a player.
This is a public BETA. I invite bug reports and feedback on the version,
but I will ignore anything resembling tech support. If you don't want to
be working with BETA software, stick to 2.21.

QuakeWorld 2.30 [11:10 PM EDT]
Zoid updated his .plan to announce a new version 2.30 of QuakeWorld available on id's FTP server. Here is a local copy of the client installer (817 KB), the client zip (593 KB), and the server zip (217 KB). Here's the update:
QuakeWorld 2.30 Release
-----------------------
The long awaited Quakeworld version 2.30 has been released. Head over to http://www.quakeworld.net/ for download information. The main archive for QuakeWorld can be found at ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quakeworld/
2.30 doesn't introduce a lot of new features over 2.29 (the most notable is the packet loss meter on the scoreboard), but mostly consists of "behind the scenes" fixes from the 2.29 BETA.
All servers should upgrade to 2.30. This will end the current situation of 2.1, 2.21 and 2.29 server differences. The 2.30 version covers all the bases and offers all the functionality of the previous versions.
Assuming that no major bugs show up in this 2.30 release (one can only hope murphy doesn't rear his ugly head), this will probably be the last QuakeWorld release. QuakeWorld has been an amazing project from John Carmack's early origins, to over a year of tweaking at Jack 'morbid' Mathews and my hands. It is one of the most complete and best first person internet gaming experience available today. It's been a pleasure working on it and keeping in contact and participating with the thousands of players. Thanks to all for your feedback and requests in helping me build a great product.

QuakeWorld 2.33 Test Release [3:52 PM EST]
Zoid has posted a test version of Quakeworld version 2.33 on QuakeWorld.net. Thanks Hanif. Here are local downloads (547 KB) courtesy of Blue's News FTP, Walnut Creek, and Log (it's big, it's heavy, it's wood). Here's the lowdown from Zoid's update:
QuakeWorld 2.33 is a test release to address several issues that have come to light in the QuakeWorld community. Several different DoS (Denial Of Service) attacks have surfaced that need addressed.
This test release contains both a new client and server to address these problems. This release is currently compatible with 2.30 servers and clients, but this will not be true once the test period has completed. The next release of QuakeWorld with be 2.4 and will be changed so previous versions will no longer function. This is necessary in order to fully combat all the denial of service attacks currently present and to facility some changes in the prevention of cheating.
The QuakeWorld 2.33 client has the follow changes and issues addressed:
Bug where client would crash during a level change if a skin name longer than 16 characters on the server has been fixed.
The client now ignores foreign connection requests while connected to a server.
A foreign message packet with C-style format strings no longer cause a client crash. Large packets sent to the client could cause it to exit with a fatal error
Timing issues with later versions of Windows 95 and Windows 98 that would cause clients to mistime their frame times and result in a player that could run faster/slower on a server has been changed and fixed.
When the client is running in a window, going to the menu or the console automatically frees up the mouse cursor.
QuakeWorld 2.33 server changes:
Server now unpauses when all clients disconnect.
A possible server crash with large userinfo data has been fixed
A minor buffering error in network data was fixed
Test release downloads:
Windows 95/NT Client and Server (upgrade from previous releases only)
Other platforms will soon follow
Feedback for the release should be directed to Zoid at [email protected]

Another QuakeWorld Test [6:04 PM EST]
Zoid has updated QuakeWorld.net with a newer version of the QuakeWorld 2.33 test (548 KB) released earlier (story). Here's the update:

QuakeWorld 2.33-0001 Test Release
----------------------------
QuakeWorld 2.33 is a test release to address several issues that have
come to light in the QuakeWorld community. Several different DoS
(Denial Of Service) attacks have surfaced that need addressed.
This test release contains both a new client and server to address these
problems. This release is currently compatible with 2.30 servers and clients,
but this will not be true once the test period has completed. The next
release of QuakeWorld with be 2.4 and will be changed so previous versions
will no longer function. This is necessary in order to fully combat all
the denial of service attacks currently present and to facility some changes
in the prevention of cheating.
The QuakeWorld 2.33 client has the follow changes and issues addressed:
- Bug where client would crash during a level change if a skin name longer
than 16 characters on the server has been fixed.
- The client now ignores foreign connection requests while connected to a
server.
- A foreign message packet with C-style format strings no longer cause a
client crash.
- Large packets sent to the client could cause it to exit with a fatal error
- Timing issues with later versions of Windows 95 and Windows 98 that would
cause clients to mistime their frame times and result in a player that could
run faster/slower on a server has been changed and fixed.
- When the client is running in a window, going to the menu or the console
automatically frees up the mouse cursor.
QuakeWorld 2.33 server changes:
- Server now unpauses when all clients disconnect.
- A possible server crash with large userinfo data has been fixed
- A minor buffering error in network data was fixed
Additional changes in the 2.33-0001 release:
- Bug where 2.33 players would get 'stuck' after about fifteen minutes of
play corrected.
- New version system in that interim test releases now have build numbers.
This release is 2.33-0001, the next test release will probably be
2.33-0002 or higher.

QuakeWorld 2.33-0005 [5:56 AM EST]
Zoid has released another test of QuakeWorld, posting version 2.33-0005 on QuakeWorld.net. Thanks Origen =Aster=. Here's part of the update, which goes on to explain that itchy sites shouldn't go mirroring this file to avoid confusion with the frequent updates.
A new test release is now available. This addresses a few more outstanding issues in the QuakeWorld client. Assuming that no problems show up with this release, 2.4 should be available then after the holidays.
Test release 2.33-0005 is now available. Changes are:
Added cvar v_contentblend which allows disabling of the blend color in liquids, this works in GL as well (so GL users can control liquid blends independantly of polyblend).
GL version: added -no8bit command line parameter to disable 8bit textures. This can improve submip visual quality.
Fixed new mouse handling bug to let go of mouse cursour when alt-tabbing and the console wasn't down
Some interal fixes to make cheating a bit harder
Out of band disconnect (0x02) packet is now ignored.
Test release 2.33-0005 downloads:
Windows 95/NT Client and Server Version 2.33-0005 (upgrade from previous releases only)
Other platforms will soon follow
As people may have noticed, I changed they way I handled updates to QuakeWorld. Even though I has hoped 2.30 would be the last version (it was only the seriousness of the denial of service attacks that I'm developing this new release) I'm trying out a new build, test and release method with this version.
