+LIVE V2.17:
+- Shortened file and folder names in order to fix (or avoid) "file sum/name mismatch" error. Please note that fs_game naming scheme is slighly different from now on.
+- Added timer to pre-match ready up period.
+
+Leagues should allow both 2.16 and 2.17 for now as they are nearly identical. Upgrade from 2.16 is not necessary in case the server owner does not experience any problems listed above. This release does not contain any other changes and is intended as a quick fix for server owners having trouble setting up servers under Windows.
+
+Public server owners should rename their z_custom_ruleset.iwd to the new shorter version of z_c_r.iwd, nothing inside is changed.
+
 LIVE V2.16:
 - Fixed a small bug that appeared during 2.15. We're sorry about that!

 A: For a complete list of "promod_modes", see below.
 
 Q: I want to run my own custom Promod-server with skins etc, how?
-A: In order to run your own custom Promod-server you'll need to change the fs_game to anything besides "mods/promodlive216" as well as not using match-modes. You will now be able to modify the Promod IWDs and add additional iwd-files.

 Q: Can I use this mod as a movie mod?
 A: Yes, you can! Commands (which are important for movie-making) are only forced on the clients once connected. Demos needs to be loaded using devmap before starting a demo ("devmap mp_crash;disconnect").

 Due to several game engine exploits, we recommend to specify the rcon-password in the command-line of your server. If this is not possible, rename the server-config to something other than server.cfg, which would make finding rcon password more difficult.
 
-On another note of security, the IWD-file "z_custom_ruleset.iwd" is now running integrity checks if server is running match-mode which means you have to decide whether the server should run "promod_mode custom_public" or not.
-If you later want to run match-modes you will have to use the original unmodified "z_custom_ruleset.iwd" supplied in this package. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
