*sam* Posted Dec 2, 2009, 10:10 am	This patch adds: 1. On-demand non-league events - use the Custom Event button in the lobby, you can now request races, deathraces and combats which will be scheduled for 12 minutes time and which will be normal events in terms of prizes and training. 2. Two new mutant skins, including one with outsized ‘claw’ hands (thanks goat!) 3. Some new Scenes of Evan (thanks LF!) 4. Bracketed event town shown in lobby list I'm also logging the popularity of each track/car combo and will use this data later to change the frequencies of them being used.

*sam* Posted Dec 2, 2009, 10:32 am	Having trouble Karz? what's happening?
Karz Master Posted Dec 2, 2009, 10:40 am	Same thing again. The "outdated scripts" error. Tried messing with clientparams.txt, doesn't work. Now I'm reinstalling the game
*sam* Posted Dec 2, 2009, 10:41 am	Ugg. Shouldn't be necessary.. you sure you're running the lobby/patcher with Admin privileges?
Karz Master Posted Dec 2, 2009, 10:58 am	Yep. Ah well, already reinstalled. Now re-patching. No prob, from the latest patch, it's going to make all this pain worthwhile. Custom events with money? Hell yes! -edit- Surprise surprise. It still doesn't work. I think the game hates me.
*sam* Posted Dec 2, 2009, 11:22 am	Can you try rebooting? I think sometimes Java caches stuff and it causes problems
Karz Master Posted Dec 2, 2009, 11:36 am	Still doesn't work. Reinstalling with the installer one more time. -edit- It finally worked. Somehow I started up darkwindLobby.jar and it started synchronizing files and when I login, presto! It works. I honestly still have no idea where the problem lies, but hey, I'm not gonna complain if it works.

Mad Mike Posted Dec 2, 2009, 3:58 pm	Can a button be added that says RACE.. or Create RACE? I know its still considered a custom event but I think a one click race creation bttton would be even better. Imagine a group of players come back from a scout and want to race, someone just clicks create race and they all join.... one click racing like one click buying from amazon
*Grograt* gary.r.horder@gmail.com Posted Dec 2, 2009, 4:49 pm	mike when you click the ' custom event' button you now get a pop up with ' what type of event do you want' with the single click choices of Race, Death Race, Combat and the original 'custom Event' Clicking any of the first three spawns an event with in 12 mins, unless there is a server created event already in place, so it already now does what your suggesting, great add
triad4evr Posted Dec 2, 2009, 10:11 pm	Truly truly awesome! Love it! So many times I've been "Meh, I just wanna do a quick <insert event here>" but the next one is like 80 minutes away. Golden! Thanks!

You forgot to mention that you moved double down to SS
*Rahn* Posted Dec 4, 2009, 2:40 pm	Sam, any chance that ped combat can be added to the custom events?
Mad Mike Posted Dec 4, 2009, 2:43 pm	I second that motion. ped combats would be awesome
