Monday update - Serious Sam:The Second Encounter patch info October 28, 2002

Hi all!

The new patch for Serious Sam:The Second Encounter is almost there. Among other things, the patch will bring a totally new netcode, and since I'm the guy responsible for it, a few extra lines from me would be adequate.

Good news: we switched from peer-to-peer networking to full server-client. This means that sync bads are a thing of the past. No more demos going haywire, and no more getting kicked from the coop game just when the adrenaline is at it's highest. Also, prediction for players and especially enemies is much simpler and straight-forward than before, so latency should no longer have a large impact on the framerate. We are currently doing final testing, smoothing out some minor glitches and quirks, so it should be out in no time.

Bad news (there always are bad news): old demos and saved games will not work. Sorry guys, but there was no other way.

Cheers,

Goran Zoricic, Network

LOL. You guys all owe me $10 each. here is my quote from 10-21:

[i:e378b4f444]$10 says that the network update will be something to the effect of:

"The code is going great and it's super fast! We are working hard and will update you when it's closer."[/i:e378b4f444]

Replace "weekly" with "bi-monthly" and then I'll say yes.

But you owe my employer for these posts taking forever to go thru. They are losing money because I have to sit here and wait so long between posts that work isn't getting done.... :D

[Grimmy]

Good thing they just call me when they need work done. More time for me to be here :D

[Mr Clean]

I have to be careful. At any moment my boss can walk by and see me goofing off, so I have to be ready to shut down Explorer at the first sign of
