id Software sent along the news that they will be releasing Quake III Arena version 1.29g at 6:00 PM EDT (5:00 PM CDT). We will of course have a mirror ready to go when this happens, but there will also be a smaller update available via the auto-update system in Q3A 1.29f. To tide you over until the release, here's a list of changes:

7-26-01 (version 1.29g)
- Players joining (and apparently leaving) the game cause everyone to hitch
- fs_handleforfile: none free ERROR
- After last level of tier game doesn't stay on trophy screen, instead it takes you directly to next tier screen
- No sound in NT 4.0 at all with 1.29f PR
- There is a shader bug in Pro-q3dm6
- developer cheats like R_Showtris have been disabled in the PR (they were never disabled, the user simply needs to run the game with “+set developer 1” minus quotes, at the command line.
- made /startOrbit cheatprotected
- Rcon issues now resolved.
- fs_basegame isn't published to clients
- fixedlegs command in the animation config is apparently not working
