Announcing the release of ShowEQ version 5.0.0.25 which is compatible with live servers as of 6/29/2005, in case you have a time machine or are living in the past. Mainly, this release fixes a network layer problem when two packets with the same sequence number are seen out of order. There were some non-trivial changes to the net layer to help people who run two clients on one box as well. Inadvertantly, this may also clean up some CRC warnings for people running teamspeak. Please turn on Session Tracking. It also removes the broken Save Zone Filters menu options.
Changelog:
Fetch the new release from the files section of sourceforge, or if you prefer, anoncvs is probably up to date right now, as I haven't checked anything new in since Friday, I've just been testing.purple (07/22/05)
-------------------
+ Updated version to 5.0.0.25
+ Merged in my old alpha netlayer patch which helps with double boxing by enforcing port matches in code for when the pcap filter isn't locked down fast enough because of multithreading
+ Fixed template constructor in Point3DArray to comply with gcc4 (thanks Basic)
+ Removed the redundant and broken Save Zone Filters from the Filters menu since it was both redundant and broken
+ Fixed a major bug in the netlayer which caused sequenced packets that are seen twice to invalidate themselves in the cache and cause garbage
+ Couple new races hand-entered
+ Cleanup memory leak in group manager
