• Fixed Linux: shift key not working by default in (ini setting).
• Fixed: Possible CoopGame server crash when monster is attacking a player while leaving.
• Fixed: Bug with Skaarj not behaving correctly in vortex2.
• Fixed Linux: SDLGLDrv for Linux. Although may be a bad idea to use it for playing (it lacks many features and is really not very far advanced), it may be useful for debugging, or for some low-end systems. In order to use it, you need to start Unreal with "./UnrealLinux.bin -noforcesdldrv".
• Fixed Linux: UBrowser select input keys not working.
• Fixed Linux and added SDLSoftDrv - now there are OpenGL and Software rendering for Linux versions.
• Fixed: UWindow Win95 LookAndFeel having some rendering errors (with menu backgrounds and buttons).
• Fixed: Some problems with older clients and mods.
• Added: Never switch on pickup option, so client can chose whatever they automatly switch to best weapon on pickup.
• Fixed: TraverseForm crash (on some maps).
• Fixed: OpenAL some sounds not playing correctly.
• Fixed: Some weird warpzones crashing Unreal when playing online.
• Added: EngineSubVer variable to LevelInfo to define version number (1=a, 2=b, 3=c).
• Added: ServerQuery to add EngineSubVer for GameVersion number (227 + a/b/c/d etc..).
• Added: Older 227 clients (227a, 227b) can't join newer 227 version servers (227c). It's a precaution because this will crash the older client. Unfortunately there is no way to fix this problem without losing compatibility with older 224/225/UGold clients, so its out of question.
• Fixed: Removed "SpawnPlayActor" and "Incoming travelling actor" logging.
• Fixed: Console set to ";" key in Linux.
• Fixed: UMenu player class selection mesh scale - adjusted to work for NaliPlayer as well.
• Fixed: Another few server fixes for reported crashes (details of these wouldn't help anyone here :) )
• Added: Enhanced the UWindow EditBox to make it possible to select text with mouse and Copy/Paste text in it.
• Added: a Music Player Menu (now default key to open it on F8), which lets you listen to custom musics while playing. Be aware that many anti-cheat mods may not like the custom musics!
• Added: On UMenu.UnrealConsole, you can enable UWindow debug mode (Tools > Debug mode) to debug your own menus while making them.
• Added: UMenu: Win 95 "LookAndFeel" as a selectable GUI interface option now.
