bobby rays shop mising timed & remote detonators[remote triger is mising too]

I don't know if this is AFS related but the game always crash whenever i enter bloodcat lair:

Got the same bug with their lair. Using the SCI Unstable revision 8270 with AFS 4.50 + 4.50.1 patch.

1. I've spotted a few .ini files in the folder, which are 'USA', 'Tac-Rails and more' etc. What's their difference from the ordinary 1.13 AFS .ini file? Enemy drop lists?

2. Are there a few items missing in the last "official" release of AFS? For example, when I was browsing BR shop with both quality and quantity set at 10x, I didn't see neither Vyhlop, nor Gsh-18 (which was listed as one of the guns that fits in the Russian LBE holster, alongside with PB), nor AK-12 series. Is that a glitch, or some items must still be found on the field?

4. Something seems to be wrong with new features. As far as I can see from the forum, Flugente implemented Jeeps as an additional vehicle for the army. When I just took Drassen, the swamp had two patrols with tanks. Tanks at about 5-10% of game progress. A bit too rough for a game start. I thought that those should have been Jeeps, but I haven't yet seen even one, only a dozen or two tanks. And my .ini settings only allowed Jeep at 35% game progress, tanks at 50%. I have no clue how that happened. (though it was fun using the RLG for the first time)

5. Last, but not least. SKS and Bazooka. SKS with a kit behaves oddly. Every time I change magnification of the dual-mode sight on it, the retractable stock simply falls out to the merc's inventory. If there is space. Bazooka. Bought it from Tony and fixed to the 100 condition and nobody complained that the gun's broken or something. It simply doesn't seem to know that it is a rocket launcher at all. Just the ? sign when I tried to shoot the tank.

Not sure, but generally, not all items are available on BR and even if they are available, they might be out of stock at that moment.

Combat jeeps appearing from the start seems to be general 1.13 issue at the moment. Those patrols you see moving around sporting that tank icon contain combat jeeps probably, there is no special icon just for jeeps. Tanks seem to "respect" ini settings about when should they appear in patrols, or at least I haven't seen a tank yet in those early patrols. Tanks might be able to appear earlier as part of counter attacks, so that might be it, if you took over all of Drassen.

Did you put an appropriate missile in your Bazooka? AFAIK, Bazooka is just a launcher, without "ammo" it is basicaly an expensive club there are some one shot launchers like LAWs that always come with a rocket inside and turn into trash when used, all other launchers need to be supplied with their rockets

OK, so i gave it a try, installed clean 8301 and latest AFS, gave myself a metric shitton on moneyz and ran around randomly so far I found 7 "tank" patrols, every single one had a combat jeep. Bought some M6A1 bazooka rockets from Tony (but no Bazookas in inventory, had to find Devin), and it works normally (although my rockets were not in great condition), just took out last combat jeep i found with it....

So, probably a borked install, or something very weird is going on

AFS Full Experimental 7 4.6x
All of the variable scopes have the description ***please remove first before swapping optics*** and their magnification level is now fixed.
Tacticool SKS kit description says about 30 round magazine, while the gun still has 10 rounds mag.
(Not a bug really, but still) At BR shop all of the new stuff like .300 BLK receivers and guns, FB MSBS, Norinco pistols etc. show up at the beginning, despite the usual alphabetical order.
FB MSBS 556B Lower appears at Heavy Weapons tab.

A quick addition
3GL Underslung Metal Storm Launcher has a invalid size it seems, for it can only be attached to certain weapons and dropped in sector inventory, other than that it won't fit into any container or LBE or even vehicle inventory.

I'm running this on build 8338 in an 800x600 window, non win98 compatibility, on windows 8; as soon as the 'sir-tech' loading screen appears, it's accompanied by a wall of errors followed by a crash. Did I fuck something up? What ini should I be running to make it work?

As it is highly likely a modder would like to add the new tag to his highly modified MercProfiles.xml, without having to manually insert and edit that stuff 255 times - you can use regular expressions with Notepad++. In the edito, press [Ctrl] + [H], seach for <ubFaceIndex>(.)</ubFaceIndex> and replace it with <ubFaceIndex>\1</ubFaceIndex>\n<usVoiceIndex>\1</usVoiceIndex> while the option regular expessions is ticked on. Then replace all in the file, this will create the new tags. The (.) part searches for one symbol and stores it, \1 then places that previously stored symbol. You then need to repeat that with (..) and (...), of course.

Hi there. Thank you Will for all the work done!


Tony thinks that
Beretta CX Storm .45 ACP is not weapon.

It is old AFS bug. I remember it from previous versions.

One other thing - there is something weird going on with FB MSBS 556 Upper and Lower Receivers. I cannot combine them like other M4/16 AR rifles

Double posting to announce a somewhat needed (Experimental/Release Candidate) release:

Arulco Folding Stock Full Experimental 10 v4.6x 20170116

Major points:
* Consolidated Change Log, AFS and UC113 v4.60 change log 20170116.PDF
* MercProfiles.XML from yesterday's SCI_Unstable_Revision_8366_on_GameDir_2357 to stop everyone from sounding like Barry (ID 0)


Now onto adding the new voice tag to the UC-1.13 MercProfiles.XML, I can't simply copy the file from v1.13. I'm travelling tomorrow, so I didn't have much time to test, most of the fixes were ready to go a week ago, though with the voice changes I'm glad I procrastinated till the beginning of my vacation.

• SCI_Unstable_Revision_8508_on_GameDir_2399
• Tony now believes the CX Storm in .45ACP is a weapon
• Ballistic Shields
• ...and the thrill of running a barely tested mod (I checked for INI errors on launch, Raven and Raider have shields, and that Tony would buy a CX Storm in .45ACP)

another set of findings.
current/max progress 86/87, it almost end of the game. Progress speed Normal, BR quantity/quality = 2x (Great), Tons of Guns
1) I did not see Trigger group attachment. Has it been removed?
2) Some ARs do not have attachment slot for Optics (AR70/90, Sig SG542 (7.62), AR-18 (.223), Valmet M82 (5.56)
3) Bobby Ray's Used Items stopped selling newer Items, it seems that progress stopped at the beginning of the game (there are no modern AR's even no AK47, just pistols, early shotguns and 22 LR weapons
4) Some receivers in wrong section of BR (see attachment)

1) ACME Trigger Group is a Coolness 4 / Sci-fi item. Do you have Sci-fi flipped on?
2) If I remember correctly, those rifles are iron sights only.
3) A lot of newer (nonSci-fi) stuff is not buy able used, though older stuff and rare prototypes should be appearing though many of the later are flagged as Sci-fi.
4) Yeah that doesn't look right, at a glance those should be under the AR tab.

EDIT: 4a) the MSBS receivers seem to be missing a <ubWeaponType>, meaning it is treated as 0. I think adding <ubWeaponType>6</ubWeaponType> should fix those.

UPD. i looked at items.xml. G11 marked as Scifi item, although Mike had this gun and some ammo for it.
fumble pack, Krinkov and lot of other stuff are marked as Scifi item. That's weird.
Still Used items should appear. I changed some tags. I hope this will help
