This is not release, but release candidate. Yes it recognize old files. Put those files in to your datafolder and rename from hlpro.fls to hyperlobby.fls. Any of release candidates can do automatic datafiles upgrade for new version if you had old version installed by proper way. To get new datafile folder just type /f in to your chat and close HL. It will open your explorer with that folder.
All release candidates do it automatically during setup, if not datafiles already exists (from beta stage of development). This si quote from preliminary upgrade note for new HL release:
Code: | Upgrade note:
Datafiles will be automatically imported from 3.9.111 version (friends, ignores, pager messages) if you use this upgrade order:
1. Install new version 4.x (do not change default installation path !)
2. Uninstall old version 3.x
If you uninstall old 3.9.111 before before new 4.x installation you will lose your datafiles !
Vista/W7 setup will not run 3.9.111 uninstaller automatically. It is not posible when UAC is enabled. With those operating systems uninstall of old 3.9.111 version must be done manually from "Programs and features" controll panel item.
|
Release will come out when major probles stop popup here in this thread. |

WinXP, HL version 4.0.6
The chatsend.wav sound it not working in the default_soundmod option. You may have taken to many kb's out of it.
Would still like to see a pagerout.wav and pagerin.wav instead of pager.wav, creating two sound files for ingoing and outgoing pager messages. I have another dandy sound file to add to that mix. Is there any chance I can mod that myself? |

Hi Jiri,
I'm still getting the 481 "invalid picture" crash from the new 4.0.6 RC. Any chance that's gonna get fixed?
And I do happen to be using East Asian Characters support for my 32-bit Win Vista Business. Will that continue to be a problem? |
