News (old)
2 November 2002
No updates for a while, about time for another overhaul soon. Adding new game support is a tad too difficult. I'm thinking of making some sort of scripting language to parse the info so when people ask "when will Fizz have such-in-such game support?!" I can say "do it yourself!" :)
22 June 2002
Version 1.8.0.0
Added Quake support.
16 June 2002
Version 1.7.0.2
Fizz now has proper help :)
Also fixed a few minor bugs.
13 June 2002
Version 1.7.0.1
Minor update. 1 fix and Copy Info item on server context menu (copies info about the server to the clipboard).
4 June 2002
Version 1.7.0.0
Big update: 2000 menu/toolbar look, added filters, improved refreshing, fixed ping (finally..) and many bug fixes.
Be sure to read fizz.txt on how to use filters.
Proper manual coming soon, the text file will have to do for now :)
23 April 2002
I'm currently re-writing Fizz's load/save/refresh code which may take some time. This will allow filtering of servers and hopefully a few speedups.
25 March 2002
Any experienced delphi programmers want to help me code Fizz?
Contact me.
22 February 2002
Version 1.6.0.1

Added support for Tribes 2.
20 February 2002
Version 1.5.0.1

13 February 2002
Update 1.4.1.5

12 February 2002
Version 1.4.1.4
Added ICQ Integration and minimize to tray option. ICQ Integration tested with 2001b Beta v5.18 Build #3659, should work with ICQ2000a or higher. Needs icqmapi.dll (from files section).
8 February 2002
Version 1.4.1.0
Games are now seperate in a drop down box and not in one big list and add a few more options.
I've redone the innards of Fizz so there may be bugs (things not working, weird error messages etc). Contact me if you find any. Also had a few requests to add Ghost Recon support, but I can't until I know what the server query is (see here "Game Server Querying").
Coming soonish: filtering of servers.
[Update]
1.4.1.1 - fixed Add Server bug
1.4.1.2 - fixed Remove Server/Save/Load bug
1.4.1.3 - fixed Import/Export Server List, added Import GameSpy List (hope they all work)
12 January 2002
Version 1.4.0.0
Return to Castle Wolfenstien support.
Game Setup info will need re-entering as it's been changed. Last time this will happen (Tools->Game Setup).
I have no idea if the Defaults in Game Setup are correct, can someone tell me if they're not :)
2 January 2002
Percent codes have been changed since v12x0. They'll need changing in Game Setup.
If you get any errors run fizz -reset. Failing that also delete server.fzs.
