The Opera: Release v1.2 Dedicated Server (Linux) Details
Here is the Linux files for you admins that want ot run servers for this fast paced action modification.

NEW FEATURES:
- Fixed a grotesque amount of bugs.

- New custom built installer.

- Almost all new maps ("op_lms_penthouse" remains from the original release).

- Some new weapon skins (don't remember which ones are new right now).

- "Discipline of Force" removed.

- Added in game command menu, selectable by the "PgDn" key by default or the
"commandmenu" command.

- Modified particle engine for smoke effects.

- Added Beta of statistical tracking (http://opera.persistengine.com/stats/).
If you have any unexplained server-side crashes, start by deleting
"dlls/opera_stats.dll" to be safe; the game can run without it.

- Tweaked weapon damages. We feel they are more balanced now.

- Client-side roll effect.

- Fixed Opera Launcher, but still isn't an exact science.

- Custom entity creation for any map. See "map_entities/entity_readme.txt" for
details.

- Customizeable client-side weapon names. Useful for those that use custom
model replacements. You can change the displayed name in the HUD client-side
by carefully modifying the text file "weapon_info.txt".

- Added moderate support for HLTV. It functions, so to speak, but it isn't an
exact science either. Also, because of time constraints only three or four of
the overview files have been created (if you are willing to create the rest
of the necessary overview files, please do so and EMail them to
dflor@redeemedsoft.com. If they work, we'll provide a download link for them).

- New map cycle options; see "mapcycle.txt"

- Removed cash awards for winning a match; winning rounds is now more
important overall.

- Added "sv_wpn_ramdonized" option for randomized weapons in "Dueling
Berettas" mode:

sv_wpn_randomized means this:
0, berettas only
1: Random Akimbo, players equal
2: Random Akimbo, players differ
3: Random pistol (includes single pistols, like the DE.50),
players equal
4: Random pistol (includes single pistols, like the DE.50),
players differ

- WinAmp interface (USE AT OWN RISK):

"w_launch": Launch WinAmp
"w_close": Close WinAmp
"w_prev" / "W_next": Previous/next song
"w_play": Play
"w_pause": Pause
"w_stop": Stop

- MP3 Player interface (REALLY USE AT OWN RISK - only recommended for high
end machines; low end machines will stutter):

"mp3_loadlist ": Load WinAmp formatted play list
"mp3_play": Play
"mp3_prev" / "mp3_next": Previous/next song
"mp3_stop": Stop
"mp3_randomize": Begin song randomization
"mp3_unrandomize": End song randomization

"+music": Display current song information

- Added "developer mode" to add mookmatch entities and spawnpoints to any
map. Initialiez by
setting "sv_design" to "1":

"_ent_mook": Add mook spawnpoint at player location
"_ent_spawnpoint": Add player spawnpoint
"_ent_save": Save entity list to "map_entiites/.txt" file.
Will OVERWRITE pre-existing file!

- Added "mp_mookdifficulty" to define mook level of difficulty. The higher the
number, the (1) more bullets they take to kill, and (2) the mre damage they
inflict.

- Other stuff...

KNOWN ISSUES:
- There are reports of crashes due to "fast model switching". I personally
haven't been able to reproduce, but other testers have. Use caution when
switching models in game.

- There are reports of the third person player view having problems with some
prop entities. I don't believe it's a crashing issue, but an issue
nonetheless.

- The MP3 player has been rolled in to the client-side engine, but still
suffers from performance degradation on low end machines. If it doesn't work,
don't use it.

- The server-side statistics engine hasn't been 100% tested. If there are
unexplained server-side crashes, delete or rename the "dlls/opera_stats.dll"
and see how it goes.

- Still some obscure issues with player rotation when it comes to players
entering/exiting the game. To be quite honest, to fix this would ave involved
the THIRD rewrite of the round handling code, and that's not something we've
been willing to do for "Release One".

- There may be other issues I'm not aware of.
