1). My problem is sometimes when I enter the map, usually from the top, my mercs are typically out of frame. No matter how much I try to move the map, I cannot seem to keep them in frame. I can eventually move them into the map more and it becomes fine. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a fix?



I have the same issue and because of it I hate entering sectors from north edge. Just can't see my mercs, and also sometimes can't see enemies or aim at their heads because they are too close to northern edge of screen. Playing in 1080.

Sometimes using arrows keys helps a bit, but first must be used <- and then the ^. Using ^ doesn`t help without previous using of <-. I know it is a bit weird...

The game tries to disguise him as a soldier of arulco. You can press CTRL+. to enter the menu and stop him from disguising.

@Infinet,

thank you. I cannot open this menu.
Perhaps it's too late, isn't it?
Only if he is "red"?

Ilya is ever "white" now with his cap or a kevlar helmet.


Exactly how you can't open the menu?
Just to be double clear the key combination is [ctrl]+[.] that is, dot key while holding control key.

So far I really love this mod. Big props to the creators.

About the weapon progression
I actually think it isn't nearly as bad as some people make it sound. The weapons that you are getting seem to fit the country and the state that it is in. It reminds me of pictures of the Syrian conflict in which you see a whole load of different weapons being used (from Steyer Aug A3's to FS2000's to G3's to M4's to AK's). I also like that the game skips the pistol only time that you generally have in vanilla JA2.

Weapon properties
The is the first mod that really made me love full auto and heavy machineguns. I'm kind of having a love/hate relationship with the damage system since sometimes a 7.62x51 feels like its LOL9mm when shooting baddies but on the other hand it makes for a more challenging experience. One gripe I do have is with certain attachments to weapons. I've yet to find a weapon that will use holosights or one specific reflex sight. (Small related bug: I managed to mount a Insight LAM, HK aimpoint and a 4x scope on my HK 21E by replacing the reflexsight with the aimpoint. It makes for pretty crazy gun).

Armor
Is it me or is the armor in this mod feel like it is really restricting your characters. Maybe it's because this mod can be challenging enough that it feels like you need every bit of AP during fights but it feels like wearing the heavier armors really gimps the fighting capabilities of your mercs. The minus AP and to hit bonuses really hurt in the early midgame when you don't have that many LAM's/Reflex Sights/Rod&Springs/ACOG's to go around.

LBE's and other items
Another gripe I have is that it's really unclear which items will fit in which slots in your inventory. Would it be possible to add a little mark on items and slots in your inventory to more easily show it's size (xs,s,m,l,xl,xxl or something like that?). Especially with certain magazine's being bigger then others it can get a little frustrating at times.

AI and setpieces
The AI is really impressive. While the good ol' firing line technique can still work the AI can overrun you if you take on more then you can chew, which is awesome. The setpieces are really impressive and it times truely convey the idea that you are a piece within a greater conflict. One thing regarding that though

[/quote]

My opinion to your questions:

SALINAS is a special region:
There is no mine and therefore no income.
But you meet two mercs in it which are very interesting (F 10 + H 10).
Further: You can get some medical kits which are not worthless.
And: It's the central region: Deidrannas troops can reach without defence the northern part of Arulco and attack your towns.

Therefore you must decide if you win SALINAS' sectors nevertheless it has no mine.
I think the descending loyality in G 8 is not a bug but intended.
Further you cannot train militia in every sector.
The winning of SALINAS and to keep it the further time should be difficulty!

You must talk to Dick to engage BABYFACE, a strong merc.
Dick and his troops are only in F 10.

Hello WhiskeyTangoActual!

>About the weapon progression
Enemy weapon progression in this mod is based on what you can really find in Latin America countries:
- regulars start with old smg's, then AKs and later use FN-FALs in 7.62x51
- elites use .40sw, 10mm SMGs that could be imported from USA for special forces, later they use 5.56x45 and 7.62x51, mostly imported american weapons like m-16 or sig clones.
- admins use more variety of weapons but you will not see many of them in the game as they are quickly replaced when you progress

Some calibers removed completely from enemy progression like Russian 5.45x39 or 9x18 or special weapons like VSS or Guryza that never were exported in other countries, but you can buy these rare weapons from Tony or BR, also some preplaced militia men on maps are armed with 5.45x39 and other weapons.

In general, there can be still some things to improve and fix like weapon coolness at levels and such but it should work fine.
Pistol period was removed because in VR you can find many good weapons in the first sectors so leaving AI with pistols will put it at great disadvantage and will look strange, also unlike the original game, in this mod the war already escalated so there should be a lot of weapons in country.

>Weapon properties
There's still a lot of work with attachments. Basically, all stock 1.13 attachments should work with any weapons, extra attachments like holosight will not work most likely and need to be fixed and tested individually.

>Armor
You always have a choice - use light armor for better mobility and CTH or use heavy armor that has restrictions, in RL it's not easy to run when you are wearing a heavy vest and helmet, also it harder to make good aimed shots in heavy armor.
The idea is that your front line mercs that are under fire most of the time have maximum protection and use automatic weapons shooting for suppression to prevent enemy from moving and shooting accurately while your rear snipers in lighter armor but good camo take positions and start killing enemy with aimed shots.

>LBE's and other items
If you give examples of what is not working well with LBE I will look if it can be fixed or changed.
In general, it should be similar to stock 1.13 with some minor changes. If pocket says 'AR mag' than it will accept 5.56x45 or 5.45x39 ammo no more than 30 rounds capacity, if it's smg mag than it should accept 9x19 smg mag up to 30 rounds and so on.

>AI and setpieces
AI in this mod was modified compared to stock 1.13, it's still close to it so don't expect things that Ja2+AI can do, but in general it should work better and more effective than stock AI.

As for quests, I hope Hawkeye and Scheinworld will answer.

Thanks for the information Fan. Very useful.

Sevenfm. I wrote up a piece about the weapons progression since unlike some in this thread I actually think it's really good and makes sense. The armor thing makes sense but it just took me some adjustment to find out. I also kind of like that you're forced to use weapons that you find instead of just depending on BR. It made me use weapons I normally wouldn't have used.
I'll take a look at the LBE stuff tommorow and do some experimentation with it to see if I can find any good examples.
The AI was once again a compliment. I was really impressed with it compared to stock AI or that of some other mods I've tried (AIMNAS, UB, DL etc)

Joey's actions - I get a few of these warnings, it's usually when a merc has done something reflecting their backgrounds. Maybe check Joey's inventory, it's possible he may have stolen something, or worse.

If you talk to Dick he should explain where he is from and what company he works for. The same goes for Babyface. There is a small interaction quest with these two should you be able to help them both with their issues,

As most factions in Vengeance, you have a choice who to befriend or tolerate and who to attack (and friends seem in short supply at times) so it's wise to consider the consequences, especially early on in the game.

Thanks for the tip on the Dick/Babyface quest.

On the Salinas G8 sector. I've just ran the game for a bit and two messages pop up while I'm there 'The residents of Salinas seem upset by X's presence' and 'X's actions have caused loyalty loss through the region.' So far I can tell X is just a random merc, not just Joey. I've had messages about the actions of Barry, Buzz, Grizzley, Spider, Raven and Joey. Furthermore this only seems to happen in this specific sector. In other sectors I've never had these messages.

These messages result from an Ambient Facility -- Residential Neighborhoods "The homeowners here get a bit nervous with war at their doorstep, and Mercs get a bit nervous 'cause everybody else is nervous. Too many fingers, too many triggers, too many civilians."

Unfortunately, Ambient Facilities don't have descriptive pop-ups. The only hint you'd get is from the list of Facilities in the sector in the Strategic Map pop-up.

It'd be nice if Ambient Facilities at least showed a text box description in the character assignment pop-up.

As Ed says it would be good to have a bit more detail in those sorts of messages, I'm not sure why the message has to refer to a particular individual if it's more of a general vibe from any team member being there, though perhaps different personalities cause different factors? otherwise the message might as well be 'The residents of Salinas seem upset by your squad's presence'

Yes, it works off Leadership & Wisdom, IIRC, checking each character every hour.

The intent with this Ambient Facility is to create a 'civilian-sensitive' sector (for lack of a better descriptor) where normal military operations/occupations would inevitably cause conflict (real, imagined, or propagandized) between Mercs and civs.

I'm thinking of adding another facility there for Snitches to ameliorate the problem by spreading propaganda -- in this case, making excuses for the Merc-civ incidents. It also would allow some explanation of what is going on -- albeit in very few words.

What do you think?

Yes, could add some interest, is Salinas the only town of this sensitive nature?

In regard to checking mercs leadership and wisdom does this mean more intelligent and wise mercs have less chance of pissing off the locals?

Wise leader mercs will lessen the severity of the Loyalty loss.

The --possibility-- of loyalty loss is a straight percentage chance.

Salinas is the only place.

As to the loyality in G 8:

I have tested it with my eight members of party one.
Everybody causes the descending loyality within a short time.
But not only in SALINAS, no, in each of "my" towns in the whole country.
The income is descending as well.
The loyality in DRASSEN decreases to 33, in ALMA and SALINAS to 0.
I have dismissed my mercs.

But this has no effect on the mercs.
I am able to engage them again.

Therefore:
I ever stay in the other sectors of SALINAS where I am able to train militia, without G 8.

Yes, it affects Global Loyalty as well as local (Town) Loyalty.

EDIT: It is there in G8 to provide a strategic challenge -- do you run roughshod over the civilian population in order to defend a militarily important sector, or do you coddle the civilian population and leave that sector to the local militia, and have the Mercs use it only to capture or travel through?

@edmortimer,

you can win the sector and train militia (indirectly) from the sectors nearby over the context menu.
This had been my tactic in the current game.

I noticed recently Gasket triggered a similar response when hogging the workshop in San Mona, but does San Mona have any credible loyalty that you can use as it's not an occupiable town, isn't it?

Figured as much, I sort of liked the fact I could do something advantageous without consequences for a change, and pictured Gasket shiftily taking stock and fixing things while muttering for San Monan's to go and kiss his ass.

I just started this mod after alot of time not playing any JA2.
I do have some basic questions tough that I couldn't find googling, they might be from 1.13 or this mod.

- How do the cleaning kits work? I press Ctrl+. but nothing happens here, do they work automatic or so like the canteens? and what do they do exactly? I dunnot see a dirt meter or so on the guns (to know when to clean them)
- What does the green shield icon next to the health bar of the soldiers?
- I found the floppy disc for the missile base, but I cannot find the launch code anywhere, can anyone give me a tip about this?a

- read that SCI FI mode is bugged, and that you should play on realistic, why not set this as standard choise then? ppl that press okay and just start the game auto choose sci fi.

Dirt is disabled by default, if you want to play with it, enable it in the options.
With dirt disabled, cleaning kits do nothing.

Enemy rank.

It is not sci-fi mode that is bugged but crepitus quest. Crepitus quest is disabled by default in VR so you can play in sci-fi mode to get experimental weapons and such.

Some Sci-Fi elements have been fixed, and will be in the latest Beta which was updated recently, so there is more to play with now, but it's work in progress. The Crepitus Quest is no more so it's not a gamebreaker for those reaching the end of the game. I would agree that Sci-Fi should be turned off by default though as it's always been a bit neglected compared to the realistic game.

Just as a general hint, does every item have a useful purpose or is there stuff like gum that is just filler? As you can tell I don't know the recipes at all!

There's a lot of junk items that just add a bit of flavour to the game, but are mostly useless.

Regarding the HK 417, no merges were evident so I've added them now (the 416 was done but 417's got neglected.) As far as I can tell the Standard barrel is the 12" so you still wouldn't be able to use this kit on your 'Assaulter.' Longer barrels will work though, and the 12" barrel can be retrofitted to 417's that already have longer barrels.

Grab this latest merges.xml and overwrite the existing one in your \Data-AIMv53\TableData\Items folder. This has not been tested so I suggest keeping your old one safe just in case.

Also grab the latest items xml which also provides Bipod attachments for the sniper variant and the possibility of adding AG 36 launchers to the others.

I was taking the Doran Oil and noticed that the AI tends to fall into the "pools" of water where my cursor is located. At one point I found 6 black-shirts all in there just swimming around which I just figured was gonna be a waste of great items angry

Other than that, the game is running pretty good!

We can climb onto roofs by carrying TIMSBackpacks!

Climbing/jumping with backpacks is possible since r1503 (build 22 feb 2017). This feature was originally implemented in Ja2+AI and later ported to VR.
But don't forget that carrying backpack results in AP penalties - you cannot move/jump as fast as without backpack.

No. I had scripting plans doing this, but not in current beta. Maybe in future versions? ;-)


Best regards; Schein...
