Yay! 0.8 is out!



My first video with 0.8: A 3vs3 CTF fight on the new oficial map Implosion, including new feature buffs(and some extra from SMB modpack).

Yay! Good job team!

Congratulations! Awesome release!
I just tryed to create local server with the announced Invasion mode, but there is no such mode in mode list:/ Screenshot. Any suggestions?

Awesome, thanks for the great work team and contributors!

Invasion currently lacks maps, and so cannot be shown in the list yet. We may hold a contest of sorts sometime later to get maps for the mode.

Congratulations and thanks to all the developers and artists who gave their contribution to this new release!

Good reason for me to install xonotic again, and play few pickups

YAY FINALLY!

Good job everyone and congratulations! Looking forward to playing it (though my spare time is currently close to zero).

Really really nice, i'am delighted to see some progress! Lets have some pickups rolling and some cups going! =))

So can I test Invasion mode? If so, how to? Or there is no way to do it right now?

g_invasion 1; restart

Congratulations to the team, and thanks to everyone involved in this awesome release!

Symfireball_v4 http://maps.xfiles.zone/mofo/symfireball_v4.pk3 and Skybowl_v2 http://maps.xfiles.zone/mofo/skybowl_v2.pk3 also have invasion support (skybowl is crazy and may cause lag, it can spawn more than 150 mobs)

g_invasion 1; restart

It works, thank you!

While the invasion mode has no official maps, there are a few community maps available to test the mode in its current state.
Here is a list of them, including ones posted previously:
dam_a1
zulula_invasion
symfireball_v4
skybowl_v2
tinyhuge
rocketarena_xon_v1r2
hty-td-001_invtest
themines-v3

Additionally, any regular map can be played in this mode by adding this to the map's .mapinfo file (advanced feature, but worth mentioning): gametype inv


Happy fragging, congratulations to all on the release!

guys would nice if you could add your [+]'s under the post, but it needs an existing account on esr

Is it just me or the rsync updater doesn't work? It just deleted a bunch of files in my 0.7 directory and that's it, when I run the game everything looks the same and the version in console says it's from 5 june 2013.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for making this!
Let's download it....

Right, it seems it updates to 0.7 atm - for the time being you can update to autobuild (might be unstable), this issue is being worked on.

Thx for the confirmation Halogene :-).
