WinBolo Steam news
WinBolo news collects recent Steam feed items, update posts, and announcements that SteamPulse can associate with this app.
Latest Steam announcements
- WinBolo 2.03 - Ingame replays, Web Client Available - 27 August 2026
Post-game replay, recap and awards After finishing a game, the lobby now shows a replay of the game just played to all players. If the server is using WinBolo.net, the log file is downloaded via it; otherwise the server sends the log file to all clients, controllable via the -servelog command line option / in-game hosting setting. The replay window can be resized, zoomed and scrolled, including trackpad pinch-to-zoom on macOS. Animated GIFs can be generated and saved of selected gameplay areas. Timestamps can be copied into chat for post-game discussion; clicking a timestamp in chat jumps the replay to that moment. Logging must be enabled on the server; replays always show in single-player games. Clicking on a player in the lobby list will centre the replay on the selected player. A post-game scoreboard is shown, including kills, deaths, base/pillbox captures, and builder deaths and kil…
- WinBolo 2.02c Released - 19 August 2026
UI changes: When a game returns to the lobby as all bases are controlled by one team (and option enabled) now displays a newswire and no longer displays a return to lobby vote passed popup. Winners are now always announced in the lobby. Surrender vote announcements are now private. The newswire only announces vote commenced/failed to the team voting, not everyone in the game. Ping displayed in the players menu is now smoothed and no longer updates multiple times a second. Bugfixes: Fixes a dedicated server crash that could occur when a player is disconnected for continual high ping. Fixes a startup crash when launching with non-English language due to out of date translation files. Fixes a macOS SIGBUS crash using luaJIT to run multiple AI brains. Fixed an issue where a builder dying from a tank explosion may parachute to the wrong location. New features coming in the next release!
