0001411: Skulltag_Actors.pk3 different among different installers

Notes
(0006691) Arco (updater) 2013-07-17 23:10	From what I gathered from the downloads page, skulltag_actors.pk3 in some product verisons has varying changes in them, with Linux x32 having the most recent changes. I think skulltag_actors.pk3 should be standardized with a version that is the most recent.

(0006692) Blzut3 (administrator) 2013-07-18 00:34	To sum up what is known about the issue thus far: Having different hashes is more or less normal. Different versions of zlib will compress differently, but the data will be correct once extracted. However, people probably had Doomseeker and/or IDE download skulltag_actors.pk3 for them so they'll have a residual copy of skulltag_actors.pk3 elsewhere that takes precedence. Server operators may also have provided the file on their downloads page, so the file will be outdated there as well. I haven't checked the Windows stuff obviously, but I'm assuming they include the proper file. One thing to note is with the flags now in zandronum.pk3 this file should be used a lot less.

(0006693) Konar6 (reporter) 2013-07-18 01:12	Did the server admin AND players update (overwrite) their data files, ie. not only the binary?

(0006694) Blzut3 (administrator) 2013-07-18 01:18	well it doesn't matter if you updated the data file if you have a copy somewhere else that is being loaded instead. ;)

(0006697) Dusk (developer) 2013-07-18 12:42 edited on: 2013-07-18 12:43	I'd suggest we put a version number to skulltag_actors to prevent this from happening. "skulltag_actors-1.1.pk3" or something like that. We'll have to hotfix anyway so this would be a nice chance to correct this.

(0006699) Dusk (developer) 2013-07-18 15:19	So it's starting to look like there's nothing wrong with our distributions but that the server hosts forgot to update skulltag_actors.pk3? Another reason to add a version string. :P

(0006704) Arco (updater) 2013-07-18 16:48	I've uploaded a more recent verison of skulltag_actors here. Hopefully this will solve the problem. 'http://wadtemp.fathax.com/files/skulltag_actors_v1.1.pk3 [^]'

(0006707) Blzut3 (administrator) 2013-07-19 02:47 edited on: 2013-07-19 02:48	Setting this as resolved since it has been determined that the issue isn't a packaging error. The proposed solution is to have the server browsers be aware of skulltag_actors.pk3 and do whatever they can to direct the user to the correct copy distributed with Zandronum. As stated in my previous post, the different hashes can be attributed to different versions of zlib and/or zipdir using a different order to the files inside. The files are, however, network compatible.
