D3Server3 release notes

2010-07-29

• Version 3.0.83.0.

• New popup menu entry "Copy d3://ip:port (127.0.0.1)" in the server list control. This copies a d3:// link containing the server port and the local host's IP address (127.0.0.1) to the clipboard. By using the Direct IP Launcher it's now only a couple of mouse clicks to join a dedicated server hosted on the same computer.

• Tooltip for the email address for the PD.com game tracker in the global options changed.

• Game posting to PD.com disabled.

• The phrase "can not" changed to "cannot" in several messages.

• Some tooltip texts corrected.

• This version creates the file netgames\hosts.deny if it doesn't exist and if the global anti-cheat option is used. Previous versions of D3Server3 just threw an error that the file cannot be read.

• The message for when the file netgames\hosts.deny has been updated now contains the information where the file can be found and that entire IP address ranges may also be used.

• Previous versions of D3Server3 always left a netgames\hosts.deny read-only. This version leaves the file writable and removes all other attributes if overwritten/added to.

• The default settings for "Remove previous hosts.deny entries on updates" (banned IP addresses and ranges) and "Remove previous entries on updates" (banned nicknames) have changed. They are now ticked if the anti-cheat options have never been used before.

• Flat buttons in the anti-cheat dialog changed to 3D buttons.

• Addtional buttons to reset the donwload (update) URIs for the file hosts.deny and banned player nicknames in the anti-cheat configuration window (global options). If someone had changed one of these values accidentally, they can now easily retrieve the default settings.

• Layout of the anti-cheat configuration window changed to make it more logical. The hosts.deny part, for instance, now has a group on its own.

• Additonal button in the anti-cheat configuration window to delete the local copy of the file hosts.deny. If the file is not deleted manually, it would stay on the system forever and cause the Descent 3 dedicated servers to use it.

• Version 3.0.82.0.

• Bug fix: *.msn files found in Descent 3's main folder were deleted regardless of their read-only flag. These files are preferably placed there by server operators to provide download links for missions that don't contain any themselves or that contain broken download links.

• New feature: In the configuration dialog for "Console and logging" are some more options to repeat auto commands frequently. This was a suggestion from Machete_Bug to be able to show regular automatic announcements.
