Site News Unreal Shamu Quest Re-Reviewed 16 October 2006 Hellscrag

Unreal Nephthys 1.3 Released 11 October 2006 Hellscrag

I'll leave this one to the experts, Winged Unicorn & Zora:

Nephthys - The Mistress of the House - Version 1.3 supports web redirection downloads!

The most important changes since Nephthys V1.1 (complete list included in the manual):

* Web Download (support for clients and servers)
* Nephthys comes as Installer to simplify it's installation
* Nephthys is now available for Unreal1 and Deus Ex
* Support of Advanced Options in non-default languages
* RUF attack detection

Nephthys is a server-side mod able to detect and automatically block DoS and DDoS attacks, with a couple of other neat features. It protects Unreal servers from many attacks like (distributed) repetitive join/query attacks and fixes several bugs in the Unreal server network code. Nephthys also logs IP addresses and allows moderators to kick or ban players who cause problems. Nephthys is the first tool that is able to balance the server bandwidth between players and downloaders. In this way downloaders never have to cause any lag.

Nephthys also is a client-side mod to profit from web hosted downloads. Joining servers with custom maps/mods now is by a multiple faster than before.

For the complete list of features, please read the included manual.

You can download the tool here.

The first item in my backlog is a new SP project for Unreal Tournament entitled Quake II Mission Pack - Area 55. This pack, by Chris The Dragonzord, attempts to bring aspects of the Quake series into the Unreal engine. A pic is available on Upcoming Maps.
