  • Add handling for iw4x:// URLs ("connect protocol"). For example, if IW4x is properly registered in Windows as URL handler for iw4x:// URLs you can type iw4x://ip:port. If possible, this will connect to the server in an already running IW4x client.
  • Add lean support through new key bindings.
  • Add native cursor as replacement for the sometimes laggy in-game cursor. This change can be reverted in the settings menu.
  • Add news ticker.
  • Add remote console ("RCon").
  • Add support for BigBrotherBot.
  • Add support for hosting game mods in order to allow players to just join modded servers out of the box ("mod download").
  • Add Warfare2 text coloring.
  • Add zone builder. For more information see the respective documentation.
  • Implement a completely decentralized peering network.
  • Implement playlists which can be used for flexible map and gametype rotation.
  • Introduce security levels. This ensures that you need to "pay" with CPU power to verify your identity once before being able to join a server which reduces the interval at which people who get banned can circumvent server bans through using new identities. The default security level is 23.
  • Move IW4x resource files into their own folder to prevent clogging up the main game directories.
  • Reintroduce parties, now also available for dedicated servers ("lobby servers").

Changed

  • Move logs to userraw folder.
  • Replace main menu background music.
