Core Patch 2 is almost ready to go, the following things have to be done before it can be released:
1.The readme file has to be improved (Crimson I believe said she would do it)
2.We (as in BHS) have to figure out which machine to put the various CP2 files on.
3.SSCP2 windows needs a better installer (Mac said he has the source code for SSCP1 windows installer which should help)
4.I have to make some changes to RenGuard to support sending out Core Patch 2 properly
and 5.I have to prepare and upload the final files for Core Patch 2 and make it download over RenGuard.
Generally, the hold up right now is that I am waiting for Crimson and/or Blazer (to get the readme file rewritten and decide where to put the Core Patch files), Reborn (who did the map fixes for CP2) since he has some further stuff that has to go into the readme file and Mac (who needs to find me that SSCP1 windows source
When CP2 rolls out over RenGuard, we will be implementing a precheck (same as we have for CP1). Should any of the files (maps etc) not match with what CP2 requires, you will be given a download link to download a version that the CP2 installer will like. This should (hopefully) put an end to all the "old file not found" issues.
Also, people with Core Patch 2 RC1 should download this
http://download.renguard.com/cp2/mixfiles/game2.zip and unzip it. This (along with the new readme file which will be posted here when its done) is the only change to client CP2 between RC1 and final.
The only change to SSCP2 is the new readme file.
For people without RenGuard installed, we will probobly be making a stand-alone installer for CP2 (anyone with RG installed will need to install it over RG)
