SoF Demo Patch News -- 9:48 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Ravensoft's Rick Johnson updated his .plan with news of a forthcoming patch for the Soldier of Fortune demo. Here's the goods:

At some point in the near future, I'll be releasing a patch for the SoF demo to address some of the issues that have come. A few of the more popular items / fixes that will be include in the patch are:

• Raised player height
• g_movescale cvar to scale the multiplayer move speed
• A3D sound updated to 3.0, fixed some crash issues / speed
• Fix for Default Sound / A3D crash in certain multiplayer circumstances
• Fix for invisible players in DM
• Better spectator movement
• and a bunch of other things

The demo code is still very separate from the main product now, so that we are only bringing over select changes. No ETA on when I'll release this demo patch (a 'non-violent' demo is being QA'd with these changes, so I'll see if anything further comes back), but I will be updating the Raven servers later this evening.

One of these days I've got to try it out online. It's a pretty cool experience in single player. My guess is that it would be best suited for teamplay multiplayer.
