Vendetta Online, an MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) from Guild Software Inc., is now at version 1.8.294 and comes with lot of changes and fixes, but that's not all. This is a not a regular update and users will be happy to know developers are now thinking about special events.

The developers of this MMO provided lighter updates in the past couple of months, and the current release is one of the biggest upgrades made this year to the client, even if we don't mention the event that just took place on Saturday.

“There will be a ‘Rally’ style racing event held in Grayspace on Saturday (see the event schedule in-game for more information). Unlike the last race event, this will compete for the minimum total time from start to finish, eliminating client load-times as a factor.”

“Lots of little fixes, plus some meaningful graphical updates on the PC. One more step along the road. We have some additional utilities coming soon, like tools to show player latency and packet-loss issues, to help people determine whether their internet connection is a problem (resulting in issues often blamed on the game itself). Those tools were slated for release this evening, but need a little more time for testing,” said the devs on the blog.

According to the changelog, the shaders for PC platform have been improved, the secondary lightsource now uses the object's bump map, the Hangar tab is no longer visible in the Tactical tab, the Repair and Reload buttons are now the right color, and the game no longer thinks the mine was laid if a player attempts to lay a mine and the mine limit has been reached.

Also, the password field no longer allows the text to be copied from it with CTRL-C, dueling players are now notified if the duel will not count towards their duel ratings, when autodocking is enabled the text on the HUD win now just says ‘Docking,’ occasional clipping of the speed and energy indicators on the HUD has been corrected, and various LUA errors have been fixed.

In Vendetta Online, thousands of people can play together in a persistent universe that is constantly being improved by the developers through numerous patches.

A complete list of changes and other fixes can be found in the official announcement. You can download Vendetta Online 1.8.294 right now from the Softpedia. Keep in mind that you will need a constant Internet connection to play this game.
