You can download 2.0.7 RC1 here

If there are no serious bugs reported, this will become the official 2.0.7 release.

Changes in 2.0.7

new: b_campaignFile allows admin to specify specific campaign file, to prevent server from referencing every pk3 on the server and forcing players to download every referenced pk3 on the server (0000316)

new: rifle grenades may be disabled through b_riflegrenades (default 1, enabled) (0000357)
bugfix: luger had greater spread than colt
bugfix: 'players sticking to each other' prediction errors
bugfix: statsaver bugs (client/server crash on stat restore)
bugfix: dynamite exploit (http://www.teamwarfare.com/forums/showt ... lastpage=1)
bugfix: fix bug allowing spectators to crash the server (0000377) no, we arent going to tell you how to do it

bugfix: dead players waiting for revive didnt generate gib events (0000389)
bugfix: player view was snapped after revive invulnerability ended (0000245)
change: obituaries no longer send origin (saves a tiny bit of bandwidth)

I really appreciate the function concerning the landmines.
hopefully the leagues will reduce the maximum number of mines from 10 to 5 or something like that

What's the difference between 2.0.7 and 2.0.6 ?

Is there a way to fix this : When you get revived and can't move yet you look in one directeion (the one you were looking at lying there?) then once you can move again you suddenly change vieuw completely (to the one you were standing when killed?)... quite anoying when you're in the middle of battle and suddenly appear to be looking in the other diection :/

behold! it is fixed...

but how about the "tank mounted mg & cg_drawgun 0" bug, is that fixed?

Are you ABSOLUTELY sure that those changes are from 2.0.6 to 2.0.7 ? Because it's always a good idea to be sure before posting a sarcastic comment that could make you look a little silly.......

P.S. Those are the changes from 2.0.5

Part of the comprehension is knowing that releases don't always go in perfect numerical order.

I will be installing 2.07 later today.....

Kudos to the ETPro crew for fixing some of ET's issues.....

Nice work Bani/Rain/others.

Any chance of testing out the freecam (extended demo viewer) stuff? Noticed the beta testing thread was locked...hoping you might read this.

BTW, infinite mines

heh heh.... /me rubs hands together....excellent.

I noticed one strange thing last night while playing 2.07. It seems that auto reload was not working some of the time. Even after quitting and then restarting ET, it still happened from time to time.

A few others complained about it as well, but it definitely was not happening to everyone.

There are 2 Bugs so far:

1. Many players get thrown into spectator for a second at classchange.
For ex. if you are Allied CovOps and switch to Allied Engineer you can read "Player xxx joined the spectators" and "Player xxx joined the allied team" right after it. This happens within a second and is very annyoing because you get thrown out of the fireteam and the spawnsetting resets.

2. XP Saving doesn't work sometimes.
