Aiming is atrocious

Fri, 28 May 2021 01:26

I haven't played this game in a long time. Bought it when it came out in '99 while working at Toys R' Us. The mods though the aiming seems really poor. Is that on purpose? 90 marksmanship with gun in range with precise aiming and it completely misses every time. Am I missing something? Thanks

SAM site destruction?

Sat, 22 May 2021 20:25

The ja2 wiki claims it's possible to knock out SAM sites by damaging them in the tactical screen:
Quote:

It is possible to physically destroy the SAMs on the tactical screen. If the computer controlling SAM is destroyed, the SAM site will no longer cover the airspace. If an enemy captures the SAM site however, it can repair the computer, rendering this only a temporary solution.

Does it mean that only the computer can be targeted, thus rendering the effect only temporary? Does blowing up the rotating radar dishes achieve anything? The launchers themselves seem to be impervious to my demolition attempts. I'm playing stracciatella if that's relevant.

Any ideas how to fix this would be greatly appreciated, sorry if this is posted in the wrong area..

Auto Resolve - No items dropped

Drop All activated - but auto resolve drops no items; Thu, 20 May 2021 06:51

Auto Resolve - No items dropped despite being drop all activated.

I am using: JA2_113_FullRelease_English_7435
And JA.102 as Base.

I have set Drop All to 1.

My last playthrough a month ago worked fine.

But this time I noticed my Auto Resolve fights dont drop any items.
This is only bothering when there are huge milita fights with elite soldiers in your cities, and there is absolutely NO Drops afterwards.

Is there any setting that could BLOCK my auto resolve from dropping items?
If I fight manually, items are dropped. ALL ITEMS...

Azazel custom maps with Straciatella

a new mod for Straciatella; Mon, 17 May 2021 08:08

Hi everybody, started porting my maps for a minimod on Straciatella.
Went through crazy times like not understanding why Strac doesn't load some maps that were saved by the 1.13 editor in another format than the standard v. 1.12 one, did a thorough play through and found out Strac doesn't like some map edge points from my maps...rectified that.

I have a map that loads perfectly in the editor but doesn't load in the game, resulting in crash to desktop with some error code I don't understand and know nothing about: https://www.mediafire.com/file/fywxtci2c6dxn9c/l10.dat/file Can somebody help?

Camo coverage for old inventory system

Sat, 15 May 2021 21:01

Noticed the camo coverage from kits is 5 %. Should I increase it, since I'm using old inventory system. I think I'm losing out on some camo % from LBE gear, am I correct?

How does the system check the camo type? Should I re-camo myself from desert to urban when moving indoors in Tixa for example?

Medic Patch Bug

Sat, 15 May 2021 02:09

it says you can upgrade both spectre helmet and commando vest. it doesnt work on commando vest while i can do it with helmet. so it is bugged i guess.

plus i dont understand whats the point of these upgrades? i upgraded my spectre helmet to medic helmet and i dont see any difference other than cross icon on helmet lol.

---

edit: i figured it out lol. it says commando vest but it works with only 2nd level commando vest. so you need to upgrade your spectre vest two times then apply the patch. when you do this you get new medic lbe patch too and same logic it works only with 2nd level commando lbe so you need to upgrade your lbe too.

tl/dr info is wrongly written in the game.

Switch in N7

what does it?; Thu, 13 May 2021 14:57

Hey,

does anyone know what the switch in N7 (prison sector next to meduna) does?


I thought there might be a hidden door or something, but I couldnt find anything in the sector or online.


Maybe there was something right next to it because I accidently blew something in the battle.
