=== Wormbo's unfinished Vehicles ===

"I also have all the other original files for whatever vehicles I made before.

I just don't remember what I actually released and what are just semi-functional prototypes.

Pretty sure "Banshee" and "Drako" are vehicles I published at some point, but have I ever done so with vehicles called "Chameleon", "Basilisk", or "spider tank"? (the latter not just being a scaled-up spider mine model, but something that might look like it actually walks)

Hmm, apparently not, or at least I did not package them with this UT2004 instance. No idea what state they are in.

ah, nevermind, those aren't even functional

Actually, the Basilisk might be usable. But the other two are more or less "source for inspiration"

Are there still any active developers left to potentially take over such projects?"

			== Preview 17: Changes since Preview 16 ==

			A small update with some important fixes that we want to have in the public preview:

			* Exception handling on Windows still had some corner cases where it didn't work as expected. This resulted in the game shutting down rather than showing a crash box when encountering a fatal error
			* Fixed a UCC bug that caused unexpected type mismatches, making it impossible to compile certain packages on Linux platforms
			* Added a new "Highest" world detail mode. This mode disables the dynamic detail reduction feature that disabled visual effects such as vehicle headlights when the frame rate (temporarily) dropped below the desired frame rate ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004-testing/issues/140 #140])
			* Fixed a bug that crashed the game while receiving a voice message when you had voice chat disabled ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004-testing/issues/159 #159])
			* Restored nearclip support in all renderers, but clamped the allowed nearclip values between 3 and 10 ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004-testing/issues/38 #38])
			* Fixed an AntiDrv/OpenGL bug that made some weapons render on top of the HUD ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004-testing/issues/155 #155])

			== Preview 16: Changes since Preview 15 ==

			Another unwelcome surprise came up: our exception handling mechanism had a bug that made the game quit rather than show a crash box when encountering a fatal exception. We fixed the bug so we can now hopefully get to the bottom of some of the crash bugs we haven't resolved yet. Additional changes since preview 15 include:

			* Fixed a bug that made maps like DM-HUT-Gephyrophilia crash clients connecting to dedicated servers ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004Patches/issues/382 OldUnreal/UT2004Patches#382])
			* Fixed a bug that made long map lists crash servers upon startup ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004Patches/issues/384 OldUnreal/UT2004Patches#384])
			* Added additional checks in the BodyGetDoubleRate function so we can hopefully figure out the root cause of a crash bug that has been reported in the public tracker (e.g., [https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004Patches/issues/387 OldUnreal/UT2004Patches#387])
			* Tweaked the positioning and scaling of the main menu buttons, the Onslaught minimap, and the Onslaught grenade HUD to better accommodate ultra-widescreen monitors
			* Fixed a particle emitter bug that made the BW 2.5 ViPER rifle magazine flicker at high frame rates ([https://github.com/OldUnreal/UT2004-testing/issues/139 #139])
