Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter Update Released

[Dirty]

- Voice chat now works again. It stopped working after Steam codec was changed from Speex to Silk, due to different traffic requirements and packet sizes.

- Increased max client inbound bps default to 12000 and max client outbound bps to 10000 (needed for increased voice traffic).

- Added barriers on Fortress level to close windows from which player could fall out of level.

- Prevented falling through floor that was possible by jump-crouching at low framerates.

- Fixed crash when Ugh Zan appears in network.

- Prevented super-fast Laser firing when quickly pressing/releasing the fire button.

- Player models now have ragdolls (e.g. when killed in versus).

- Added blood sound to player's destruction so it is heard when player is gibbed.

- Grenade launcher item model now uses the same scheme (sound, particles) as all other weapons.

- New Versus map: ShottyTrouble. It is same as LittleTrouble but with double shotgun's only

- Prevented scripts starting during warmup, which caused sniper never to spawn on Jump Over versus map.

- Sniper weapon hint will not be shown in versus.

- Player will always be able to pick up health and armor in Versus modes.

- Fixed problem with sounds repeatedly played from trigger heard only once on client.

- "Match is tied" announcement was never played.

- Item disabling game options now work in deathmatch games.

- Sniper mask didn't get rendered if weapon rendering is disabled.

- View bobbing option now also affects weapon bobbing.

- Serious damage item will be hidden during the first 120 seconds of the game.

- Sniper now deals 80 damage without scope and 160 damage with scope in deathmatch games.

- Grenade launcher now deals 100 damage on direct hit (40 direct + 60 range) in deathmatch.

- Added safeguard to re-award previously earned achievements, in case Steam didn't register them.

- Fixed bug in life awarding on score: if you reached exactly the same score as the life awarding milestone, then you would never receive score for that milestone.

- Picking up armor which is not needed (happens in deathmatch) should not decrease current armor.

- Added timeout to server list queries, since they sometimes take a very long time.

- Fixed voice options not properly being set from cvars when starting.

- Fixed the chat console cursor which incrementally floated away from the text with each successive text line.

- Fixed the chat console input string corruption that happens when the last character is cut because it contains more bytes then it fits the string buffer maximum size.

- Updated string wrapper in the chat console to work with unicode strings.

- Fixed potential crash when canceling matchmaking queries.
