Nexuiz 2.5.2


Hi d00ds!

Today is a great day, as we can finally see the whole greatness of the new Nexuiz version 2.52! You can finally see all the new stuff with your own eyes, as we just updated our CTF server last night. There are tons of great new features and i will try to just name the most important and obvious changes:

  • New announcer sounds: red/blue flag taken, red/blue flag returned
  • Complete new HUD
  • A very nice new scoreboard
  • See your accuracy by pressing ALT anytime you want
  • Nice effect at the flag point, if someone captures the flag
  • Somewhat improved antilag
  • Motionblur
  • Dynamic Crosshairs (blur on enemy contact / blur when something is in your shooting sight)

By the way: there is already one known bug: the water bug, it causes a lot of debug messages getting flooded to your console, claiming that r_water 0 was set. Therefore you cant see any water in this case. However there is already one known work-around available: enable Opengl 2.0 shaders (GLSL) in the graphics video menu and turn on reflections in the graphics effects menu. The bug was allready posted at the nexuiz forums also, so expect the developers to provide a hotfix in the not-so-far future!
