id Software has sent word that a new release of Quake3 is on the way today. v1.29G which has now been made available via the auto-update system if you already installed the 1.29f release (a lot of people did) or if you're still oldschoolin it with an older version the FTP will open up at 5pm CST.  Here's a list of minor bugs that have been fixed for the new version.

- Players joining (and apparently leaving) the game cause everyone to hitch
- fs_handleforfile: none free ERROR
- No sound in NT 4.0 at all with 1.29f PR
- There is a shader bug in Pro-q3dm6
- made /startOrbit cheatprotected
- Rcon issues now resolved.
- fs_basegame isn't published to clients
- fixedlegs command in the animation config is apparently not working
- + and - cvars fixed
- After last level of tier game doesn't stay on trophy screen, instead it takes you directly to next tier screen
- 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.
