Release Candidate 0.9.7 (05/08/2014)

Time flies by, nearly a third of the year has past since our first beta Release the 0.9.4. Even throught you might think we are not moving it fast enough I think for the amount of time we spend on the project the speed is great.

We had very little stability issues until know, but a lot of small bugs, some simple displays elements miss aligned or some features not entirely finishes. With this version we have looked to the details, there is new stuff and fixes and improvements but there is also a lot of details. The 0.9.7 is at the top of it's game and the best eXpansion we have ever packed with reaby.

What is eXpansion
eXpansion is a next generation controller with simple intuitive gui that allows you to control TrackMania & Shootmania servers. It is the first controller to rely on Maniascript to offer incredible experience to players and incredible advantages to the admins.

How to migrate from 0.9.6
Using auto update
  • Make sure git is installed on your server
  • RightClick > Server Settings > Expansion Settings
  • On first page you will check use git update
  • Make sure branch name is master
  • Save settings
  • run /admin update command in game
  • and restart expansion /admin manialive restart
See auto update tutorial for more information : https://github.com/eXpansionPluginPack/ ... AutoUpdate

Manually
  • Create new folder for 0.9.6
  • Unzip the file
  • Copy your old Config folder to 0.9.6 Config
  • Remove your previous config for loading plugins, leave only AutoLoad
  • Remove your *_admins.ini files for your servers, the permissions has been reworked, and using the old files may not work out good.
  • Start the controller
How to Install
Installing eXpansion is extremely simple and straight forward. If you already installed XASeco or any similar controller you will find it to be even easier as there is only a few lines of config to edit, once that is done you do everything in game.

Hi, the master was updated there has been a few fixes.
  • Fixes issue with ranks being sometimes wrong in LiveRankings in rounds mode when spectator
  • Fixes issue with PralelExecution and exec being disabled. For some server hosters
  • Fixes issue in Menu that could crash system if Faq plugin not loaded
  • Fixes issue in hud visibility
All those fixes are available if you use autoupdate, they are on the master(the release candidate) and on the nighty.

I would like also to remind server admins that the update from 0.9.6 to 0.9.7 is strongly advised. the .6 was a beta version the .7 a Release Candidate.
