I learned the hard way about patching RTCW and not being able to find patched servers to play on. I patched immediately following a release and usually regretted it. This time around, I think I will wait a week or two and see how it goes…
Whats your plan?
waiting for shrub too…
i really like pushing teammates out of hiding and into combat 
Certainly is, learned that lesson when RTCW was going through regular patches. Install a new, separate copy of ET into a different folder then patch the original. When you’re happy the new patch is OK and has become the standard, un-install the (un-patched) copy.
I’m waiting for a) shrubmod b) the swedish tournament league which still runs on previous version.
Fenris, you are THE Fenris that I know from the Swedish leagues! I didnt understand that, until now!
You guys beat the crap out of us yesterday. To bad it was an official clan war , grr! (They owned us on Oasis.)
Here is the homepage for the Swedish league, if there are any Scandinavians out there who read this post: http://sm.maca.se/
Swedish only text on that site Im affraid.
To finish this post I can say that I agree with Fenris (who is a skilled RtCW and ET player) and that I await the new league rules in the (Swedish) league.
It is 12:30 here, and Im off to lunch! Thank god it’s friday!

already patched
33 patched servers in list, 38 unpatched
as i’ve filtered out shrub anyway, no harm done in patching
knowing of all the errors and problems many players have with the new patch it doesn’t make me wonder that most servers still didn’t upgrade.
i hope splashdamage gets punished by id for this pos v1.02.
i dont see why it doesn’t treat the patch as a mod so it’s backwards compatible.
the server i play on 24/7 is 1.02, so i’m patched
i have patched my game machine and my server and have seen no ill effects personally. Could some of these issues be caused by a hyper tweaked autoexec.cfg and a deprecated cvar or at least an algorithm change that causes the tweak to actually be at fault? i mean, some of these weaponbank scripts could be confusing the game, since the patch did change the bino weapon bank.
the only problem i had was ZoneAlarm did not register the change in the program and blocked me when i tried to fire up 1.02. a reboot of the computer and all was well.
but i am probably saying things everbody already knows, but i haven’t seen anyone address it yet.
Thats a pretty interesting point Chron. Maybe some of those who are having issues could run a stock config and see if they are still having the same problems? At least it would be good to rule it out as a possibility…
Ive done the same thing,cant go wrong when u have both versions installed.
Why are the swedish people not in CB international ladder :???: I know there are soo many decent clans from our beloved neighbour country

Did another install of ET, copied over the etmain directory and patched it, thus having two ETs, patched and unpatched.
The patched seems much better merely for the fact that there are more servers available and 1.01 only has 2 and a half left.
Thank you SD for the fixes.
