The Official Download Page of Unofficial Patch 1.5 has been updated! Check it out: https://www.ee2.eu/patch/ :)

May 31 2020 - 20:05:01

The #🏀multiplayer-lobby channel on Discord did not show the correct number of players online in topic. It's because 29.05.2020 @Discord changed rate limits to: "2 updates per 10 minutes".
Our Bot has been updated, but the list of players will be updated with 5-8 mins delay :(

Windows 10 ver. 2004 (build 19041) has just been released.
Unofficial Patch 1.5 is compatible with this version of Windows since update 157035 (released in April 2020). Please read the following article to learn how to enable a fix for "max. ~64 FPS" bug: https://www.ee2.eu/help/#64fpsbug

May 27 2020 - 07:05:11

Unfortunately, there will be no Minor Update in May 2020. It's because (for now) there are only 2 changes, and I have to test few other things. So 157036 is delayed to June 2020. Upcoming fixes are described here:

It seems like I accidentally forced the installation of 157035 even for users with 157034 (instead of 157023 and older, as planned). Fixed now. For my surprise, it didn't cause any problems with stability: https://www.ee2.eu/statistics/?period=7d#launchstats (30 April, the number of launches isn't lower).

Apr 29 2020 - 06:04:54

Due to increasing fragmentation of UP1.5 versions and users who are not aware about new updates (notifications weren't that good back then), we decided to force installation of the newest version for users with 157023 and older ( https://www.ee2.eu/patch/changes/#157023 ). Also improves security.

Server OS re-install completed! EE2.eu is now running on Ubuntu Server 20.04. The Server might be restarted several more times today (in case something requires fixing). For now it seems like the Multiplayer Lobby integration with Discord doesn't work.

Apr 27 2020 - 03:04:26

Today (27.04.2020) between 04:30 CET to 09:00 CET all EE2.eu services will be unavailable, due to a scheduled OS upgrade to Ubuntu Server 20.04.

According to the UP1.5 Usage Statistics, yesterday (04.04.2020) the game was started 2176 times, from 1158 unique users. It has crashed with "Unhandled Exception" error 20 times, which is only 0.91%. It shows how important are "under the hood", not noticeable changes in UP1.5.

Today (21.03.2020) there were over 112 players online on the Multiplayer Lobby. Due to heavy Server load, I was forced to prepare a Lobby update to reduce the number of database queries (cache instead of individual). For that, lobby will be restarted at night or in the morning.

For all shit-talkers, who after so many years with Unofficial Patches for EE2 still don't trust it, and even dare to insult on the Support Chat - here is a response from Microsoft regarding the latest false-positive detections of EE2.exe and EE2X.exe in Windows Defender:

IMPORTANT: The Multiplayer Lobby Peerchat Server TCP port has been temporary replaced from the default IRC port 6667 to 28955. It's to test if random "ping timeout" disconnects still occur. The UP1.5 Launcher will automatically overwrite this port in game process on game start.

I'm aware of the random Multiplayer Lobby disconnects that occur since 3rd of October 2019 (after the Server migration). It seems to be Ubuntu 18.04's systemd-resolve related. Today I applied a new workaround. Hopefully it will solve the problem... https://askubuntu.com/questions/1058750/new-alert-keeps-showing-up-server-returned-error-nxdomain-mitigating-potential

We managed to "collect" 50 users on the new Discord, within just 4 days! It's only 20 less than before, where we "collected" users for over 10 months! Thanks to everyone for the support and for the incredible activity during the last days.

Dear Discord users! The owner of the old EE2 Discord has kicked me out, causing integrations with EE2.eu / lobby to stop working due to lack of API/webhooks permissions. Setting it back took 6 hours of work. Please join a new Server using: https://www.ee2.eu/discord/

I don't know if it's not placebo, but for me it feels like Minor Update 157024 resolved lags in game completely (those little 0.5sec+ freezes, not the low FPS issue). Maybe increasing the maximum sound memory from <5MB to 100MB really was the key? What are your thoughts about it?
