America's Army master server - Alex Burger <alex@fragit.net>

America's army uses a private master server that is not accessible using XQF/QStat. Hopefully some day a free public master server will be available from the AA developers, but until then you can use the following http master server:

http://webpages.charter.net/cirithungol/aa/aa/aa-ips.txt

For more information on the above master, check out http://www.cirithungol.us.tc/aa/aa.

Enemy Territory and XQF - Alex Burger <alex@fragit.net>

Version 2.56 of Enemy Territory was released a couple weeks ago, which means you need to update the 'Master Protocol Version' to see all the current updated servers.

The patch brings the protocol number up to 83, so click Preferences - Games - Enemy Territory - Options and enter 83 for the protocol version.

XQF Logo - Alex Burger <alex@fragit.net>

We are in need of a logo for XQF! If you would like to see your logo design used on the XQF web site and inside of XQF, then let us know!

The logo can represent what XQF does, or it can simply just look cool.

Here is what we need:

Logo for the startup splash screen. Not too big, not too small. For example, the current splash screen is a png at 512 x 256.
Logo with a black background for the web site.
Icons for the desktop and inside of XQF. We prefer a vector format like SVG so we can generate icons of any size without loss of quality.

We prefer that the logos be made with free software. The files must be readable by free software such as The Gimp.

If your logo is selected, it will be added to the XQF source which means it will be placed under the GPL license with the other XQF code and documentation.

Please send all submissions to xqf-logo at lists.sourceforge.net. This is a private list so only the XQF developers will be able to see your submissions. Depending on the number of submissions, we may post a poll to determine the best design.

Tribes 2 launch support - Alex Burger <alex@fragit.net>

With the latest CVS source code, XQF can now launch Tribes2. This is done using the command line arguments:

-login name -online -connect ipaddress:port

If you have not specified a Player Name in Preferences - Player Profile - Name, then it will use:

-online -connect ipaddress:port

and you will be prompted for a login name / password.

If you have saved your password in T2, then it should connect immediately.

Anyone know how to get rid of the Dynamix logo at startup?

April 20, 2001

Tribes 2 support - Alex Burger <alex@fragit.net>

The CVS source code has been updated to version 0.9.6g, and Tribes 2 support has been added. As I don't even have the game yet I can't test that it actually launches Tribes 2 correctly. I would appreciate it if someone could test this out when they get Tribes 2, or with the beta if you have it.

XQF 0.9.6f Released! [Download] - Bill Adams <bill@evil.inetarena.com>

Lots of updates. Please see the ChangeLog for full details and credits, but here are some of the highlights -- some of which were covered in previous news items but before now were only available by downloading the CVS version:

Multiple server filters; Filter name configurable and appears in the status bar.
Lock Icon to show if server is private or not; icon next to number of players turns yellow if all of the public client spaces are full.
Pressing "Insert" brings up the add server dialog; pressing SHIFT+Insert adds the currently selected server to ones favorites.
Added support for new Team Arena Game types.
Protocol 48 (1.27) Q3A servers get queried with protocol 48 in qstat.
Execute "PreLaunch" script when launching game (for use with ICQ scripts, etc.).
Improved support for Half-Life servers.
Improved support for Unreal Tournament.
Improved support for Quake2.
Hack for supporting multiple Q3A protocols i.e. xqf can run different Q3A's depending on if it is a 1.17 or 1.27 server: see the README file.
Q3A hack for connecting to arena servers so that all of the vm_* settings are correct on the command line.
Resolved one major source of core dumps. It should be much more stable now.

January 7, 2001

More updates - <alex@fragit.net>

Happy new year!

Ludwig Nussel emailed me a patch for XQF that improves support for Half-Life, UnrealTournament and Quake2 by displaying data in both the Game and Mod columns. Previously, only Quake3 took advantage of the MOD column. Thanks Ludwig!

I have applied the patch to the source code, and have also made some other changes which are:

Renamed MOD column to GameType
Swapped Quake3 'Game' and 'Mod/GameType' columns
Swapped UT 'Game' and 'Mod/GameType' columns
Changed version to 0.9.6d-beta

The reason I renamed the MOD column and swapped the columns with Quake3 and UT is because the columns were not consistent. I took the time to go through Quake2, Quake3, UnrealTournament and Half-Life to figure out what the best column layout would be.

Here is an example of what the columns will display with the new layout and Ludwig's additions:

Game column:

Q2: lithium (gamedir)
Q3: beryllium (gamename)
UT: CTFGame (gametype)
HL: cstrike (gamedir)

GameType column:

Q2: Lithium II v1.23 (gamename)
Q3: FFA (g_gametype)
UT: Hardcore (gamestyle)
HL: CounterStrike (gamename)

Now that the columns have been sorted out, I can start looking at what it would take to implement multiple Favorites.

To get the new changes, use CVS or download the latest 'snapshot' from the Download section and recompile. I suggest you do a 'configure;make clean;make' and then 'make install' if all goes well.

New Features! - <alex@fragit.net>

Bill Adams has been hard at work on XQF lately and has added the following enhancements:

Hopefully fixed a core dump problem when using filters
New column in the server list to show if you need a password or not. If you do a lock icon appears
If a Q3A server has all non private-client slots filled, a yellow man appears next to the map
You can now press "Insert" to add a server to the Favorites list while in anything but the Favorites list. Pressing "Delete" while in the Favorites list will remove it from Favorites
Pressing "Enter" or "Return" in any list will will connect you to the server
Added the ability to have multiple filters. Right now the number is set at compile time to 10 (see xqf.h:MAX_SERVER_FILTERS if you want to change it). You can name the filters to whatever you want. The first filter "None" cannot be changed. The last filter selected is remembered each time you exit

UnrealTournament fixes - <alex@fragit.net>

Unreal Tournament launching has been fixed. There are actually two problems. One has to do with XQF and the other with UnrealTournament.

XQF was not passing the proper parameters to UT which resulted in UT not connecting to the server properly. This has been fixed in XQF.

There is also a problem with the UT script in UT 436 and below that results in not being able to tell UT to connect to a server while being launched from the command line or from XQF. I have notified Loki of the problem and they will be fixing it in the next release of UT for Linux. Until then, you can make the fix yourself:

At the bottom of the file ut in your ut directory, it says:

exec "./ut-bin" -log $*

change it to say:

exec "./ut-bin" $* -log

Quake3 Team Arena / Quake3 1.27 patch - <alex@fragit.net>

The 1.27 patch added new game types of One flag CTF, Overload, Harvester and Team Tournament (g_gametype 5 to 8). XQF now checks to see if the server version is 1.2x or above and if so, uses the new game types in the game column.

Mod authors usually use the game type of 5 to show it is a Quake3 MOD. Because of this, you may see some servers running 1.27 that show up as a 1FCTF when it is actually a mod such as Rocket Arena (arena). When all the mod authors change their code to report a game type of say 9 (10? 11?), XQF will report it correctly as a 'mod' instead of '1FCTF'.

XQF now queries the master servers for Quake3 protocol 48 servers instead of using the default protocol used by QStat (45).

I now only get around 1100 servers in XQF. This seems to match what I currently get from the multiplayer in-game browser inside of TeamArena. I'm sure the list will grow as more people convert to the new version.

Remember, you can always get the latest version via CVS, or by downloading the latest 'snapshot' from the Download section.

RedHat 7 RPMs - <alex@fragit.net>

Adam (StatiC) Gibson has created RedHat 7 RPM packages for both XQF 0.9.5 and QStat 2.4a.
The files are available via a link to his site in the download section.

Thanks Adam!

XQF -> XChat - <alex@fragit.net>

If you use XChat for IRC, you will want to check out the XQF -> XChat script written by Douglas Bollinger. Here's a snippet from the home page:

This script links the programs XQF and XChat. When you start a game with XQF, this script notifies other chat channels users that you are playing a game and changes your nick to reflect your gaming status. When gaming, other users in the room can request your gaming stats from the script. What mod you are playing, the server IP# and the elasped time since you started playing the game are available with a single request from other IRC channel chatters. When you return from gaming, you type a command and your nick is changed back and the channel users are notified of your return.

SoF, UT and Documentation - <alex@fragit.net>

I finally managed to get Soldier of Fortune and Unreal Tournament to launch from XQF!

I have created a 'Docs' page (under 'Download') that explains how to get both games working with XQF. I have also documented how to get Half-Life to launch from XQF when using Wine, but I have not tested it yet. As mentioned on the docs page, I plan on eventually writing full documentation for the program, but for now I have just outlined how to get some of the games to work with XQF. If you would like to contribute or comment on the docs, please email me or post a message on the forum.

To get Unreal to launch properly, I had to make a modification to the source code. You can grab the latest version (now called 0.9.5a-beta) via CVS or you can download the latest snapshot of the CVS tree in .tar.gz format from the download page. It's too bad I didn't figure this out last week! :)

November 18, 2000

Version 0.8.99 released!

This is a development version. The code is partially rewritten. GTK+ 1.2 is a requirement now, GTK+ 1.0 is not supported any more.

It's pretty stable for me. I have not finished some features planned for 0.9 version. This is the only reason that I did not name it XQF-0.9.0.

Changes:

QStat communicating is completely redesigned. Multiple masters' update is performed in a more efficient way. Now XQF is incompatible with QStat versions prior to 2.1a.
Source selection is reorganized from option menu to tree with multiple selection.
DNS subsystem is completely rewritten.
Master servers can be referenced by host names not only by IP addresses.
Server/Player sorting is rewritten. It's possible to sort servers by ping and then by game type.
A lot of internal improvements and speed-ups.
Fixed a couple of long standing bugs.

Current bugs/limitations:

XQF has built-in list of QW/Q2 masters. No way to change it without recompilation. It will be changed soon.
Decoding of extended bit-field server flags (dmfalgs, etc...) is temporarily disabled.

Jan 17, 1999
