All right, same deal as last week. There've been about 40 commits made to subversion since last Saturday, so grab the latest version of the 1.2 client and join one of the beta servers. At this point we're in a feature freeze, so if we can iron out the last remaining bugs we'll have an actual release on our hands.
Here're the instructions again:
1)
Determine your basepath folder: Start your current (1.1) client and bring down the console, enter in /fs_basepath and remember the directory it tells you.
2)
Get the PK3s: Make a directory called "gpp" in your basepath directory and put in it the highest numbered vms and data pk3s from
here.
3)
Get the client: Get the latest build of the client from
here (the .exe one is Windows, the other is linux32) or
here (for the mac .dmg) and put it in the same place as your current client . Name it something else; don't replace your current trem client.
-1)
If something seems screwy and you can't load a map: Find your homepath directory with /fs_homepath, and remove any pk3s from the gpp/ directory under there. Autodownloads default to there and will override pk3s in your basepath directory.
When you go to the server browser, pick either one of the starred "official" servers at the top of the list.
