I apologize if I'm intruding in any way since I know that the transition to big maps in AIMNAS has been a touchy issue.

However, has any thought been given to outsourcing some of the map making?

I assume smeagol already has a some kind of vision how the rest of the maps should look and play. If that outline was given to some volunteering map makers and they were assigned sector(s) to work on, this could ease the workload considerably. Smeagol of course would do the final quality control and probably would want to make the important maps from scratch himself. Also, the agreement would not give any guarantees that the outsourced work would actually be used in the coming versions of AIMNAS but I think most people would be fine with it. Some "auditioning" might be wise as well so total hacks like me weren't given too difficult assignments (if any at all) Very Happy

There's obviously the problem of people going MIA or bailing out, but since the whole strategic map isn't fully playable anyway, it shouldn't slow the mod development down that much, if any at all. Even if some of the maps weren't finished as promised or were too shoddy to publisize as they were - they might still be partly usable by smeagol or at least offer him some ideas.

I think there would be interest in this since many of us like to fiddle with maps and stuff but making a full mod is a bit too much (and beyond capabilites of most). Also, there has been and is huge interest in AIMNAS in general and many people would like to see it in a more finished state rather sooner than later so they could play a full(er) campaign. As it has been said many times, AIMNAS has become a somewhat "standard" way of playing JA2 and it would really be a shame if the mod development dies slowly down since smeagol understandably has more important things to do with his time than create new stuff for the greedy masses - alone.

I just simply one of the most intense firefights in my JA career ever. Hilarious thing is it was the first fight you ever get to: the landing in Omerta. I used the extended range NCTH minimod and increased sight and weapon range in my INI. My god, its just perfect, even the pistols were very effective.

I just want MOAR of this shit!

So, any new on the development?

Announcing new AIMNAS XMas release.

Yes, I know... it has been a while. My new job and my little kid have kept me more busy than I anticipated.


But thanks to Zombiehunter who more or less took over mapping, work on AIMNAS has continued in the last year (with me working in the background mostly by adding the DG mercs, backgrounds, likes/dislikes and a few more items in the last few weeks...
oh, right... and I added a few new tileset objects, but those haven't made it into the maps yet... until XMas there's still a few days left and maybe a few more maps will get finished until then).

Here we go...

XMAS Release 2013.

Download available now.


You'll need a recent gamedir version with an exe 6553 or newer.


The version is rather untested, report any bugs you find in this thread.

It'll also be nice to get some general feedback.


I set NCTH to default, you should give it a try. On big maps with increased sight range it works quite well.

Always make a backup save game before you accept any Quests or talk to NPCs. This hasn't really been tested yet. Recruiting Ira and Dimitri in the beginning should work fine, though.

Playable maps include all maps in rows A - E. Rows F and further are off limits atm, so enter at own risk.

Garrison settings will probably need a lot of tweakign still, some sectors are probably rather empty in regards of enemies. Report anything you find here and I'll do an update asap.


Note that food system is not yet implemented.

Then you're doing something wrong. The people on irc managed to get it working properly.

Merry xmas and thx for the new xmas surprise!

Installed mod and did a short check and everything seems to work fine so far.

But as I like to customize my IMP gear i can't find the right weapon.xml from which mercenarygear is chosen. I tried data/tablesata/inventory/weapons.xml and dataaim/tabledata/inventory/weapons.xml.

Specifically I'm looking for the HK 417 20". Item number is 1077 and 5329 in those files. As the other stuff appears (rodandspring, reflexsight) correctly I can't figur what I'm missing here.

Thx

The item ID you want is probably the 5000 one, as I moved all guns to item IDs 4000+.

The easiest way to modify the stuff is to use the xml editor, though this requires possibly a quite new editor, due to usage of certain item tags that older editors won`t know and thus could delete from the files. If you have a new xml editor, I`d recommend using that one for any changes you might want to do to starting stuff.

Thx, checked the newest version but still nothing. What bugs me is that the other stuff I change works e.g. reflex sight, rod etc.

Edit: New installation and the newest xml-editor did the job. Thx

Trying to use the Destroyed A.C.A Building facility in C9 results in a crash - as there is no assignment and thus no description, the popup box causes a crash due to not finding an text. Adding an assignment, like resting, removes this problem. Not sure wether this is a new bug or an old one, though.

As facility type 3 refers to prison complex, I think that your exe version might not yet support interrogate prisoner. Maybe it could be possible, that your exe isn't as new as you think?


@Flugente: The desttroyed A.C.A. building in C9 allows militia training, but has no staff assignment. Same as the rebel hideout in A10.

Maybe this needs a code fix.
