ok here is what I did now:

Installed v1.06 and replaced the FF2smx file with the smx file from v1.04.
Freddy is working.
sadly duo spy (gentle + femspy) isn't. Now only one spy shows up.

edit: by forcing /ff2_special gentle both show up.

I agree, 104 and new freddy are happy !!
105 crashes with either Freddy

Hmm, I may check what changed between 1.04 and 1.06 and see what else could be causing these client crashes (assuming we're still talking client crashes).

Powerlord:
Client falls to 1.5 - 1.6

Just fyi guys I have been running "Old" freddy with "Old" sounds on 1.05 for days now without problems. Did someone try the mp3 sound files yet?

[war100ck]

the new Freddy is absolutely loaded into another directory can not be a problem, tested 100%

[Powerlord]

Honestly, I'm not really seeing any client-facing changes between 1.04 and 1.06, other than the attributes fix... and we already know that changing all the other attributes so they conform exactly doesn't fix the problem.

Now, if what war100ck says is true and Freddy works fine if you put his files in a different directory, it implies something funky is going on in the boss parser itself, but I honestly couldn't tell you what.

On an unrelated note, this code appears in several places:

PHP Code:

EmitSoundToAllExcept(SOUNDEXCEPT_VOICE,s, _, _, SNDLEVEL_TRAFFIC, SND_NOFLAGS, SNDVOL_NORMAL, 100, Boss[0], _, NULL_VECTOR, false, 0.0);
EmitSoundToAllExcept(SOUNDEXCEPT_VOICE,s,_, _, SNDLEVEL_TRAFFIC, SND_NOFLAGS, SNDVOL_NORMAL, 100, Boss[0], _, NULL_VECTOR, false, 0.0); 


...which is the same function call made twice in a row but with a space between the third argument in the first call and not the second (this make no functional difference). I assume this is a bug and could cause issues on the client as it tries to play the same sound to them twice.

Edit: It does occur to me that, unless you're using my version of 1.04, freddy's attributes will be parsed incorrectly in 1.04, but parsed correctly in 1.06. Whether that causes the client crash or not I can't say; attribute 137 (dmg bonus vs buildings) set to 17 will cause it to do 1700% damage to buildings and that percent may be beyond the range that the TF2 client understands for this attribute.

I had old freddy on 105 for a good while and occasionally clients would crash and there would be a weird message on chat window, something about steam ticket rejected or something like that

it just did this all the time with new freddy. So far 104 has been no crashes that I know of

have not seen either new or old boss selector pick new bosses reliably if at all recently
