    Avatars as voice chat icon will probably look nice.

    Yay particle optimization :D

    2.25c will be the ban patch. He wanted to get this patch out instead of holding it up. I'd guess 2.25c in a few days, from the impression he gave me in IRC.

    You people are rude for banning servers from a community...

    DO IT!

    Can't really 'ban' the server, I don't think, isn't it more like preventing it from appearing in the server browser?

    I can do a check on the server. Exiled doesn't seem to have people intelligent enough to work around it.

    Nice, i'm liking these fast patches. I think they're ace, even if they're only billed as hotfixes, I do think 2.25 is a great step back to the mod we love, although sadly that would be more effectively proven if we didn't have ddos'd servers :pathetic:

    Are these changes from the scripting team? And, if so, would they like to comment on them at all?

    They're committed by pickled, maybe someone else wanted them. I added RPG one + reactive.

    There are still a handful of adjustments that I feel need to be made to the scripts. However, we moved with what we had for 2.25b. As long as these keep getting released in a timely fashion I still have plenty of opportunities for more adjustments.

    Anyway if you want to argue with me about the script changes, start a new thread, I'm not going to hijack this one.

    Wait so the carbine pistol can't rapid fire anymore?
    Well, that's fine, I guess.
