v1.7.44 - Update: region picker, voice chat opt-in, smoother matchmaking

Game client (Client.dll)

  • Voice chat is now opt-in. It is off until you switch it on in the launcher (Settings > Voice > Voice chat) - and it now turns on or off right away, even mid-match, no restart needed.
  • New Mute everyone (Settings > Voice): keep voice on and still talk, but hear nobody. Works instantly.
  • Your account name everywhere: the lobby and the players you KO now see your rVclient account name instead of your PC name.
  • Play Again / Respawn: Playground always keeps Respawn; Battle Royale uses Play Again. Play Again waits longer for the next match instead of showing "connection lost".
  • Fixed a crash when leaving a match after the server closed.
  • The Discord Join button is only offered in Playground (Battle Royale modes are joined through matchmaking).

Launcher

  • Pick your matchmaking region: Settings > Matchmaking region. Auto (lowest ping, shown next to each region) or lock one region. In a party the leader's choice is used.
  • Server Status: servers are grouped by region. Solos, Duos, Trios and Squads show Play - they're joined through matchmaking - with an option to match you in that server's region; Playground keeps Join.
  • The invite link / console command buttons are for Playground; in a Battle Royale match invite friends to your party instead.
  • Party invites from the launcher fixed.
  • Quicker updates from now on: when an update only changes the game mod, the launcher swaps Client.dll without restarting itself.
  • Clearer messages while the region list is loading.

Includes everything from v1.7.43.

Installation

New install

  1. Download rvclient-launcher.zip
  2. Extract to your desired folder (e.g. C:\rVclient)
  3. Run rVclient.exe, set your game path if asked, and choose your username in Settings
  4. Press Play (or Safe mode for a minimal direct launch)

Update an existing install

  • Launcher users: the launcher offers the update itself - accept it and it restarts on 1.7.44 and installs the new game files.
  • Mod only: download RVClient-VoiceChat-v1.7.44.zip and extract everything into your game's Rumbleverse\Binaries\Win64 folder (overwrite). Run RVLauncherSetup.exe to get the updated launcher.
  • If rVclient won't open to take the update: open Command Prompt as administrator and run taskkill /F /T /IM rVclient.exe, then start rVclient again.

Files

  • RVClient-VoiceChat-v1.7.44.zip - Mod update: Client.dll, loader files (cnfg, cnsl.dll, dxgi.dll), ODIN voice DLLs, RVUpdateHelper, RVLauncherSetup, version stamp
  • rvclient-launcher.zip - Full launcher with the bundled 1.7.44 game files and PLAY_RVCLIENT.bat (also published under launcher-latest)
  • launcher.version - the launcher version this release carries (used by the updater)
