Myth II 1.8.2 Released!

Post by Myrd »

I'm happy to announce the release of Myth II 1.8.2, which is now available for download.

Myth II version 1.8.2 is the latest instalment in Project Magma's series of updates to Myth II. This release is an incremental update, bringing new OS compatibility, additional polishing and bugfixing, plus a few great new features.

Below are some of the highlights of the 1.8.2 update:
  • Ability to join co-operative games while they're in progress.
  • Updated higher-resolution Myth II interface, included by default.
  • Notifications when a player sends you a private message while Myth is in the background.
  • Fix for the Warlock Elder's fireball attack on The Seventh God plugin.
  • A new “Long Player List” preference that shows more players in the metaserver lobby.
  • A new preference to persist the camera zoom level between games and launches of Myth.
... And many, many more.

Special thanks to all those who participated in our public betas, your feedback was essential to catching and correcting a number of severe issues.

Happy Mything!

I installed mine today, and the resolution is all distorted. All settings are maximized and they are the same as before. But now it looks as if its on terrible resolution. One on the left is 1.8.0 (a copy of M2 I have installed in another file folder.) One on the right is the newly installed 1.8.2.

Is there any way we can more verbose logs?

My autohosts crash a lot these days and there is nothing in there except "Starting mesh "Venice"..."

Also noticed during recording playback, there is no more whisper or yell sound effects throughout the game. Is that just for COOP or was that taken out completely? Sometimes its nice to note when something is whispered among a teammate versus something yelled out loud, especially during team games.
