Changes on 2017-10-09

• Fixed an issue where config values that requires a vid_restart were not set correctly after a client restart. The values would only show up as "latched" values and requiring another manual vid_restart after launching the client. Examples of affected commands could be resolution and gl_no24bits. Fixing this makes for a less broken experience. (Thanks to Meag for hinting that wait commands in autoexec.cfg may be the issue)
  
• Removed HUD config execution in triggers on_enter, on_enter_ffa, on_enter_ctf and on_spec_enter and also removed the vid_vsync toggling when going spectator. The config execution removal should also lead to a less broken experience. There are still game mode specific configs triggered that overrides some keys though, i'm tempted to remove those as well.
  
• Added a HUD element between the armor and health bars showing the equipped weapon and its ammo. This is for improved visibility which is extra important when running out of ammo, which was not so visible before. (Old version and new version)
  
• Slight adjustment to the score elements of the HUD so they don't overlap with health bar in 1024x768.
  
• Disabled cl_weaponhide and cl_weaponpreselect. I guess this is a bit of my personal taste but i just think it's confusing for new players and veterans don't seem to use them anyway (they use custom scripts). Weaponpreselect also gets a bit odd with the new current weapon HUD item as it's possible to "preselect" a weapon you haven't picked up yet, resulting in the HUD element showing no gun icon and only the ammo count.
  
• Changed default crosshairimage from 3 to 1. (3 wouldn't display anything in 1024x768)
  
• Updated the readme with mainly information about Discord instead of IRC and updated dead links (qtv.quakeworld.nu instead of quakeworld.tv and also mentioning badplace.eu for server/qtv purposes)
  

Changes on 2017-11-04

• New keybinding scheme (see keyboard image for most important binds):
  
  
  
  • Weapons now have traditional binds, i.e. no weapon scripts by default
    
  • Teamplay messages incorporated to greater extent
    
  • Teamplay powerup time script on scrollwheel (activate on F3 or F4 depending on powerup)
    
  • Shownick command is now used on same key as tp_point command (also made sure tp_point does not trigger on teammates)
    
  
  
• Powerup glow enabled (gl_flashblend)
  
• Fullbright skins not on by default for a more coherent look:
  
  
  
  • Teamskin changed to non-fullbright white
    
  • Enemyskin changed to non-fullbright green
    
  
  
• v_viewheight changed to -6 (this is the "pixel perfect" setting)
  
• Gameclock now counts up by default
  
• Added correct QTV API URL (otherwise it uses the currently incorrect version from the ezQuake config, gets rid of the JSON error message in console at startup)
  
• Moved team/enemy scores from bottom right to top right corner for better low-resolution compatibility (avoid overlap with weapons)
  
• Included sample configs from the following players in configs/samples directory (thanks to supplier Dirtbox)
  
  
  
  • Blooddog
    
  • Bps
    
  • Dirtbox
    
  • GT
    
  • Locktar
    
  • Locust
    
  • Milton
    
  • Rikoll

To register, players are expected to join the #cpmduel League Discord Server and notify the admins of their intentions. Registration closes on November 11, 2017, and we will not be making any exceptions. We anticipate the end date of the regular season as league as December 10, 2017, and for the playoffs to be completed by December 17, 2017.

We have decided to go with a fairly standard map pool which consists of: cpm1a, cpm3a, cpm15, cpm22, cpm24, pukkat2, fjo3tourney6 (wr 5). The reason for these maps was to respect the legacy of #cpmduel, whilst introducing players to (what we hope) a new standard map with Fjogg's latest offering.

• Game Schedule: Players must schedule date and time of their game. Once players have agreed to a date, and time, they must message their division admin (or if he is not available to any admin) of this information. All games have to be played before round deadline. If both sides (and admin) agree, a game can be delayed (rescheduled). Deadline for one round is one week.
• Regular season points:For the regular season games, games are best of two, and we will use the following point system:
- 2-0 : 3 points awarded to the winning player.
- 1-1 : 2 points awarded to each player.
- 0-2 : 1 point awarded to the losing player.
- FF : 3 points awarded to the winning player, and 0 points awarded to FF player.
• Map Selection: The players call heads or tails and use /callvote random 2. The players call heads or tails and use /callvote random 2. In the regular season we will use drop (1), drop (2), pick (1), pick (2). In playoffs, an additional drop (1), drop (2) is required.
• Server Selection: Any CPMA 1.48 server with standard settings could be used. The ping difference between players should not be higher than 30. If players can't agree on suitable server, it is picked by an admin. Once a player gets ready in-game he accepts the server and its settings as they are.
• Game Start: Player must play their matching within ten (10) minutes of games being assigned.
• Match Reporting: After the matches are complete both players are required to submit their results to an admin. Any discrepancies in reported scores will be investigated by admins.
• Matches: Players must take demos of all their games. Players can use cg_autoaction 7. Players must be able to provide demos of their games upon request.
• Cheating: Cheating will not be tolerated, and any players caught or suspected of cheating will be immediately dropped from the tournament.
• Disputes: Admins have to ability to #shrekt you if they want.

As we do not know the number of players registered it is difficult to determine group size, and play-off advancement. We anticipate to have a total of eight players advance into a playoff bracket.
