Site Update - December 1, 2010

[sponge]

Today's update covers another batch of small web bugs, and has already been applied. Some changes may not appear until you reload the page and clear the browser cache. Force the browser to reload by using CTRL+F5 on Windows/Linux, or CMD+SHIFT+R on Mac OS. The specific game launch Linux crash (XGrabPointer) should be resolved, so we hope our Linux users will be able to play again. The full list of changes for those who are interested is reproduced underneath.

Also of note, is the long-awaited returning of stats from the earlier downtime. Yesterday, we started to insert the stats back into the database at a rate of around 8 games per second. We encountered a problem with telefrags, and have had to temporarily pause reuploading. That issue has since been resolved, and the replay process should be continuing over the course of the day.

Web Changes

• Resolved the main cause of Linux crashes upon launching into a server that have cropped up in the most recent patch.
• Fixed award percentages showing up incorrectly.
• Fixed friends showing up as online 1 minute ago.
• Fixed formatting issue with Freezetag stats.
• Fixed formatting issue in Game Manual.
• Fixed RSS link on Site News.
• Resolved potential issue where navigating away from a match detail scoreboard, and then clicking back would show an error page. If this is still seen, please report it so we can look into it further.
• Optimized front page slideshow images for file size.

If you have an NVidia card with recent drivers, this is a known issue that can be worked around through NVidia driver panel: http://www.quakelive.com/forum/showt...VIDIA-users...

sponge,

I've noticed under the "Last 7 days" tab in "Matches" that the oldest day always shows up as saying no matches have been played. Of course, when the day rolls over into the "1-2 weeks" tab, the matches show up again for that particular day, but are now missing for the new oldest day in "Last 7 days". Any chance you can look into that at some point?

Thanks.

Also, there's a small thing in the Game Manual that you still haven't fixed.

Game types:
Freezetag (CTF)
