TCPRelay 0.4 alpha 1

NOTE: there is a newer version of TCPRelay here. It fixes a problem with Twitch.tv ingest server listing when starting up, so if you still have the problem, make sure to upgrade now.

TCPRelay 0.4 alpha 1 is now available! Download the 32-bit or 64-bit version. You may also need to install the Microsoft .NET Framework 4. Keep in mind that this is an alpha version; some features may not behave correctly.

What's new in this version:
  • General
    • NEW: localization support for:
      • [es-AR] Spanish (Argentina)  (thanks to Nicolás Sigal)
    • If you wish to add your language, fill this table (make sure to fill both sheets: WinFormStrings and ControlsStrings) and send me via e-mail with the subject TCPRelay translations for [language] [country].
    • NOTE: only the GUI version has support for localization for now.
  • GUI
    • FIXED: status tooltip did not clear when TCPRelay was started sucessfully after an error.
    • FIXED: added localization support for several hard-coded strings.
    • FIXED: component layout updated manually for localization.

Natural Selection 2 - build 250 is out! Time to stream again!

This weekend Natural Selection 2 saw the release of build 250, along with a nice big -66% discount. This helped restore some of the game's popularity, at the cost of introducing a lot of newbies, which means the overall pub game level is quite low.

My team, CiB, has been quite inactive lately. No scrims, no competitive games, no internal practice, nothing except for 3 or 4 members playing sporadically. Even myself gave a little break to NS2 for other things, because once you get into the competitive scene, it's hard to go back to pubbing, because you'll end up breaking the balance like this. (I am smurfing as Ares.)

Thankfully, people are picking up the pace quickly. Today I played for a couple of hours and there were some pretty decent games, albeit not very balanced, and there were some funny moments in there too. Watch them below!
