|
||
|
|
||
|
This file contains a summary of all changes from previous version you need to
|
||
|
take care of when updating your server to the current version.

||
|
It should contain:

||
|
-- info's about all new/changed parameters in bnetd.conf
|
||

|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: If updating through several versions (example if updating from 1.7.1 to
|
||
|
1.7.5) you HAVE to go through ALL the update information listed for every
|
||
|
version in between and including the last one (ex. you have to go through
|
||
|
1.7.1 to 1.7.2 update info, then 1.7.2 to 1.7.3, and so on until 1.7.4 to 1.7.5)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Updating from 1.7.8 to 1.7.9
|
||
|

|
||
|
field used to fix a MAJOR bug that shows up with case sensitive SQL engines

wollat for the server latitude
|
||
|
- conf/bnetd.conf : changed "servaddrs" directive to not be totally commented
|
||
|
and be as ":" by default in bnetd.conf (if "servaddrs" is commented this
|
||

||
|

|
||
|
- conf/bnetd.conf : added "ladder_prefix" parameter to allow only games with
|
||
|
matching gamename to be counted as ladder (applies only to alternative
|
||
|
ladder game types as specified by "ladder_games" directive)
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
saved to disk on user's logoff
|
||

these settings need to be set the same as the d2dbs.conf parameters
|
||
|

|

|
||
|

|
||
|
Diablo II level 100 workaround
|
||
|
|
||
|
Updating from 1.6.x to 1.7.0
|
||
|
==============================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Because of the many changes in 1.7.0 we recommend to use a clean install
|
||
|
and update the configuration files as necesarry. Things to note:
|
||
|
1. you now need GNU make to build PvPGN on POSIX systems (on Linux this is
|
||
|
just "make" but on *BSD is "gmake")
|
||
|
2. d2trans,gametrans,w3trans have been unified under address_translation.conf
|
||
|
file which has a complete new syntax so take care with that
