Thanks for the feedback guys, I'll go though the clothing file today while at work and will try to do something about it.

And we can expect to get some news about the first and second content patch on Monday, so keep your fingers crossed that your prayers has been answered Smile

It's a vanilla bug that came with the 1.06 patch.

I did however notice something while testing my latest version, the militia was actually there but on the far side of the map. I guess they were outside of what is considered the map border so their icons didn't show. I had to run one of my mercs to that side and hire them. So if you encounter the issue where the global map says there should be available militia and you get no icons on the tactical map, scroll along the edges and you might get lucky and find them.

I am not sure this is a bug due to the mod or due to the patch, the militia don't seem to level up anymore. They all stay at level 1-2 even after I captured the barracks and days after that.

I also see another oversight from the devs, the orange prison shirt exists and can be taken from the prisoners, but I always see the description blank, and has a blank icon.

I haven't noticed the militia level up issue, but I'll do some testing to see if I can't figure out what's causing it.

The prison shirt issue has been reported over at the bC forum, and we'll see if it's fixed in one of the coming patches. If not I'll do it myself, promise Smile

Oh, and Blue Dawn 0.3 has been released, check OP for linky.

Been going through the weapons & ammo .txt files, a couple of questions:

1) Why does the AUG have similar range to SG552, G36c? Doesn't it have a longer barrel?

2) Does 7.62x39 really have worse AP capabilities compared to 5.56, 5.45mm? Don't the smaller bullets get stopped by cinderblocks and such?

I don't own weapons or ammo so I'm no gun expert, just interested in knowing the physics & reasoning behind those values.

As a rule of thumb, smaller rounds with higher velocity are better at defeating armor. The issue with intermediate barriers like doors, windows or walls is not so much that they stop bullets but rather that they have bigger influence on the trajectory of lighter rounds, deflecting them those few degrees more to turn a hit into a miss. At least that's the simplified core of it.

I think the 7.62x39mm weapons should do more damage than 5.56x45mm and 5.45x39mm weapons, but has less armor penetration value and tend to be less accurate when fired in burst.

What's new in the 0.3 version?

Apart from the new weapons, such as the PAP M59/66, AK-74, Type 56, IMI Galil AR, FN FNC and Mk 11 Mod 0, the enemies now have completely new load-outs, mostly Russian made. They also have better stats that fits their weapons, like the sniper has better perception than the ones carrying SMGs and shotguns, this makes them behave differently. They also carry less grenades, only the grenadiers carry frag, some others carry smoke and flash-bangs.

We have also added some armors to the shops around Arulco, so after a fight you can get your hands on some fresh ones quickly. We have also added some new Spectra and Guardian armor in various camo patterns.

Wilson has worked on the weapons stats, and from my testing they are much better balanced than in the previous version.

Is there a way to remove those annoying kids from the game??!! Please, for Pete's sake make them go away....

Whoever thought it was a good idea to program those kids to follow you and block doorways should be executed.

In the upcoming patch, they say, the kids will be made to keep more distance from you and not blocking doors.

What's the intension of putting those kids in anyway? I mean, if you could give food/chocolade/gums to them as every good stereotype of soldier/merc would do, then, yes, nice addition to game immersion i'd say. But now? Purely annoying ... Sad

I only use mines on roadblocks anyway, those kids have a habit of stepping over them, sure they are invulnerable but it is just a waste.

Actually not so much invulnerable as unkillable. All civilians can be hit, but they can't be killed.

uuuh, has anyone else noticed that silencers appear on top of the M1911's slide and not at the end of the barrel?

Also, attachments are not displayed on SKS & PAPs. I don't seem to recall having this problem before but I might not have been looking closely enough...

Thanks man, I wasn't aware of the M1911 issue and have fixed it. The SKS anchorpoint was reported over at the bC site a while back and was fixed as well.

@Kapnah
Once the next patch has been released I'll go through all the camo values again and give the boots some love.

Just an observation.

After installing .3, my armor seems to be useless. It appears from the looting that the enemy seems to be using almost exclusively 5.56, but it's ripping through guardian vests like butter.

I cant seem to get the mod running. Did I miss a step?

I pasted it to the game directory, and choose yes when asked for override. It added a bunch of files and I went to the mod options folder, choose the difficulty and pasted it into the configs folder. Started a new game up, and nothing has changed so far.

I did edit the medpacks for more dosages, if that matters.

Thanks.

@SirVash
Maybe patching your game might help, I'm running v1.06 and no problems with the mod, no crash no nothing.

@R@S
Automag anchor point is off too, silencer floats off the front of the barrel. I copied the Deagle values over and it looks OK. Just thought you might want to fix that for future releases.

A version compatible with the 1.11 patch has been released, check OP for link. Keep in mind that you should start a new game if you updated your game to the 1.11 patch, some IDs has been changed and moved which will result in weird behavior. If you started a new game once you updated to the 1.11 patch you can continue your game after you have installed the mod.

I'm not sure what anti bullet jackets are, but I want one anyways Razz

Razz

If you're talking about armor, where are those missing exactly? Is it the militia or enemy soldiers you're talking about, or is it in one of the shops?

If it's the former, did you exit and enter the sector after installing the mod?

If the latter, did you happen to copy the old characters.txt from the 0.3 Mod_Options folder and not the perception.txt from the 0.4 Difficulty folder?
