my FE isnt compatible with 1.3...

[Silverwing]

is there an update i can get anywere that allows my FE to play in 1.3? if so plz let me know!

[Commando]

I started what is currently an unofficial update for FE.  It gets FE running, but it isn't near perfect.

[Fishbone]

well, I guess we will call it an official FE 1.3pb patch
there is nothing unofficial about your work, Commando!

[Bull Dog]

Cool Commando.  Is it going to be for MP, IA, MPI only or are you going for the SP part also?

Dark fox , since he did such a good job with rev.c, is going to head rev.d.

At the moment he is having fun with Dawn of War because 1.3 has taken so long to come out.

Commando! speak to me!

I was actually waiting until 1.3 is final before we work on balancing FE for it. As such, this pre-release update for FE isn't something we need to concern ourselves with in the multiplayer balance sense.

That being said, I'm sure there would be no harm done whatsoever in some very minor balance tweaks that I've had in my mind for a long time now, so I'll contact you via email about the Fishbone.

Actually, Hemp, you should not be talking about things you don't know.
There is not going to be a rev D.
There is going to be a FE for 1.3
But who is heading what and who is working on what is not out yet.
Commando (and some others) are working on a quick public beta fix that removes all console pop ups.
However, once 1.3 will be final, it will be time to go over FE and fix issues.

....rev.d = FE for 1.3. If you were to read my posts more closely you would notice i have refered to rev.d as the '' 1.3 compatabilty patch for FE ''.

Please stop treating me as if i do not know what I am talking about, it doesnt suit your reputation for being logical and accurate.

1.3 is still in beta , any knowlege of when it will be official yet? even a clue?

[Commando]

I need a little help with the chat shell shell file, mainly with font color.  While in the chat room, typing in an invalid command, such as /help, will result in the player being prompted the supported commands.  In the FE shell, this prompt blends in with the background so the text can't be read.  It is practically invisible because it blends in with the background.  Does anyone know how to change the font color for alerts so it will be visible?

[Bull Dog]

Shell editing, hmmm.  Sorry man that is way out of my line.

[ScarleTomato]

in actuality jwk it seems that rev.d doesnt quite fit it since their not changing any of fe's aspects, primarily just some tweaks to make it compatible

i mean they didnt call bz's nocd tweak rev.b

and it seems to be more or less universally known as fe for 1.3, so would'nt you, for the sake of you being understood, call it that instead?

i dont know how technical yall like to get in these forums but i thought id drop two cents in

[PhoeniX-FlamE]

lol, you obvoiusly have no idea what FE rev.d gonna have

[RubiconAlpha]

Back on topic,

Thanks to Commando's shell work I have a much better idea just how much tweaking FE may need to run SP, IA, MPI and MP correctly.

How much of this can even be done until we know what v1.3 will end up like?

Hats off to Commando's work and any others behind the scenes tweaking FE for v1.3.

Your work looks cut out for you.
