Serious Sam Fusion 2017 Update 328320 released Here are the changes: New Features: New Feature - Implemented dynamic flow control options that will allow users to enable/disable dynamic flow control feature. Dynamic Flow Control enables dynamic calculation of BPS for network, making connections more stable and multiplayer more smoother. -Tutorial- 1. Client must go to Multiplayer Options and enable Dynamic Flow Control option 2. If server is not Dedicated Server, go to Multiplayer Options and enable Dynamic Flow Control 3. If server is Dedicated Server, cvar net_bEnableDynamicFlowControl needs to be set to "True" value. 4. Server can limit Client BPS with the variable "ser_iMaxClientBPS", that limits bandwidth used per client. ------------------- New Feature - Implemented multiplayer autodownload to modded mode. With this, Dedicated Servers for Modded Mode are now available! -Tutorial- 0. The Modded Dedicated Server is a separate exe, that you can find in the Bin folder of your game installation; if you have the Dedicated Server Tool installed, of course. 1. Dedicated server can be started with command argument "+downloaded_mods mod1,mod2,etc.". 2. Starting server like this will cause it to download requested mods from Steam Workshop. Server will be paused while downloads are in progress. After download, server will add newly acquired mods and continue as normal. 3. In general, every Workshop mod that the Server player have and is Enabled in the game, all clients will download before they can join the modded server. This includes aesthetic mods (player skins, weapons skins, etc) too! 4. Doesn't work for custom GRO files placed in the Content folder, just Workshop items. Known Bug, fixed in next patch: Sometimes when the Client downloads a needed mod used by the Host, then the Host immediately disables that mod then rehosts the server, the Client will be stuck in a "Client and server have incompatible mods" loop. Manually this can be fixed by the Client deleting the "DownloadedMods.txt" file located in: [Steam Installation]/Serious Sam Fusion 2017/Temp/SteamWorkshop/ ------------------- Changes and Fixes: Serious Sam 3 related: - Some quality of life changes: You can now reload while sprinting, switch weapons while sprinting, and interrupt a reload with firing if you still have ammo.
