Added

  • Add banclient command which will permanently ban a client from a server. The ban will persist across restarts.

  • Add code for generating and sending minidumps for debugging purposes. This feature is meant to be used only during the Open Beta and will be removed once the code goes to stable release.
  • Add commands that allow forwarding console and games log via UDP to other computers ("network logging").
  • Add D3D9Ex.
  • Add filters for server list.
  • 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.

  • 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.
