Patch Notes for Revelations 2.2.2

2007-09-25 - By CCP CAPSLOCK

Need for Speed™ Initiative

  • Multiple database procedure updates and optimizations have been added, this results in a greatly reduced amount of load on the SQL servers and improved server stability.

EVE Voice

  • An issue that prevented running of multiple EVE clients using multiple Windows users has been resolved. It is now possible to run multiple clients using Fast User Switching in Windows.
  • An extraneous (and empty) "plugins" directory was being created on Voice enabled accounts. This directory will no longer be created.

Localization
The following changes and fixes have been made to localized clients:

  • Some character sheet information, such as school and bloodline, will now display in the correct language.
  • The scan categories in the scanner will now display in the correct language.
  • The "Item Groups" list will now display in the correct language.
  • The agent race in the conversation panel will now display in the correct language.
  • The warning message of "You cannot keep xxxx range" will now display in the correct language.
  • The "No distance available" warning message will display in the correct language.
  • When creating a contract, the string "current station" will now display in the correct language.
  • In the journal, a public contract would show 'none' as issued to. This will now display in the correct language.
  • On the fitting screen, the recharge rate of the capacitor will now display in the correct language.
  • The 'Compare' button to summon the compare tool will now display in the correct language.
  • When assuming control of Starbase defences, "Target" and "Source" will now display in the correct language.
  • When applying changes to a corporation member, the "saving changes" dialog was not translated. This will now display in the correct language.
  • The "Auto target back" dropdown menu now displays correctly.
  • The client version number displayed on the system menu is no longer clipped.
  • Several texts in the starbase management window are no longer clipped.
  • An exception thrown by localized clients when opening a show info window has been resolved. This exception was nothing more than a warning.

Miscellaneous

  • The spacing in Wallet Column titles has been improved.
  • The uninstaller no longer deleted non-EVE related shortcuts from C:\Documents and Settings[user]\Start Menu\Programs.
  • An error where a Unicode character in the install folder name would prevent the display of mission details has been resolved.
  • The Opus Alliance logo has been updated.

Exploit Fixes

  • CONCORD
    • CONCORD officers will now drop the donuts and immediately deploy with the intention of smoking your criminal derrière if you remote repair criminal NPCs. They will no longer set up a roadblock at the next stargate and wait for you.
