Hi long time lurker here first let me compliment you on the mod.

Now i would like to report something strange that has been going on on my game, I recently reinstalled ja2 the install is clean applied SCI_Unstable_Revision_7205_on_GameDir_2033 then Arulco Folding Stock v4.48 20140518 (Full) and xml editor 162.
I did notice that enemies and militia haven't got items and armour only weapons and ammo, i am playing with drop all enabled, even elites in drassen counterattack are unarmored and without lbe or first aid kits.
I tried reinstallig the mod several times but the problem is always present, id did use the xml editor to change IMP's starting loadout.
Confirmed in the test install, but not present in the production install. Added to the (probably) fixable bug list
EDIT: this one seems to be vendor specific, the Europe game mode does have items being dropped.

EDIT2: Looks like it is a specific set of item choice XML's affected, unfourtunatly it is one shared by stock AFS/v1.13, Tac-Rails & More, and International vendor sub-mods. You do not need to start a new game when switching between the vendor sub-mods so that will do as a workaround till v4.49.


This one seems to be caused by XML Editor v0.103 - not sure why, but if I edit either guns or items lists it ends up causing items to not be assigned. If I copy and paste the data from these XML's into working XML's using my old Excel 2003, they are assigned items just fine. I cannot see a difference between inventory XML's when opened up in Notepad++, but I didn't spend too much time on this as I had a workaround - I'll do a proper bug report using stock Data-1.13 when I have a chance after the v4.48.1 patch is released (soon). I'm suspecting that the working XML's were produced prior to the 103 Editor either using 102 or Excel.

I'm experiencing the same issue but I never touched the XML Editor. What's the workaround?

Also, messing with the ice cream truck and items causes stuff to just disappear. I'm not sure exactly what triggers the issue, but using CTRL+Clicking from the truck to the sector inventory causes the 'moved' items to be greyed out (as in inaccessible) and hovering over them does not highlight their position on the mini-map. Exiting out of the sector inventory causes at least those items to disappear, but I've also had an entire sector's worth of stuff vanish in San Mona when using the ice cream truck.

these can be in afs/uc/dl mods,they looks like p99 http://www.canik55.com/pages_sub.php?id=33&module_type=2&module_id=14 copy[can be aviable ealy,for cheap price,but can have litle less reliability than p99],if you want beretta 92 compat for your mod,there is optional choice:taurus pt92 compact,maybe there is posible chance adding bereta 90 two ... taurus beretta clone's can be optional choice for less money to spend,but maybe needs more repairs to compezate ...

Oh, sorry I've been busy with other things (and generally not being motivated) lately, the fix is simply re-saving the inventory XML so it is formatted correctly. For instance using Excel 2003. That said, the patch below has tested XML's.

This one is a general v1.13 issue that I've think others have reported before.

Convert ammo into either a box or a crate and an item transform should be available.

That sounds about right for that rifle.


Arulco Folding Stock v4.48.1 20140718 Patch
  • Tested with Single-Click-Installer: SCI_Unstable_Revision_7337_on_GameDir_2071
  • Updated Ja2_Options.INI to GameDir 2071
  • Implemented miners as merchants for TNT and detonators, trial of balance
    - - due to these NPC's originally not expecting to be used as merchants the resulting merchant speech/text is interesting to say the least
    - - this feature may be subject to removal as balance of new tank feature is refined over time
  • Fixed AK12 5.45mm Tacstock and variants, corrected all to be two handed weapons
  • Fixed 40x47mm magazine (for Pallad-M), cleared Sci-fi tag
  • Fixed ADD K11, removed laser and trigger mod attachments
    - - added (N)CAS bitmask 402653184 for OICW type weapons to attach bipod and grip, but not laser sight
  • Fixed Enemy and Militia item inventory not effective under some vendor sub-mods, resaved XML's in correct format (as far as I can tell) using Excel 2003 instead of XML Editor 103
  • Fixed Ares Shrike missing (N)CAS definition for C-Mag Adapter

One Question about the both FAMAS Versions in this Mods. Is it right, that I cannot mount scopes of any kind on a FAMAS? I am wondering about because french Soldiers have scopes on their Guns.

This makes the FAMAS in comparision to the other Guns of the same Level very bad.

I'll look into this, if I remember correctly the F1 can accept the generic scope rail attachment (replaces scope rings).

Vehicles are not drivable with this mod. They seem to miss seat entries in vehicles.xml.

All drugs except regen/energy are way too large. In fact they seem to fit only in largest pockets and stack only to max 4 on the ground (like gas cans).

Confirmed the "stock" sizes were not changed to the mod sizes. AFS is due for an update soon anyways... and I've got some time on my hands next week.

I'll check the vehicles, but for now can you try copying the vehicles.xml from the SCI?

I fixed it for myself with no problems, just thought to report it. I wasn't sure if there were any mod specific differences between AFS and 1.13 so I copy/pasted specific lines for the vehicles.

wil473:

newer SCIs (for example, 7572) have certain pieces of information externalized to other .xml files. For example, there's a XML for the difficulty settings that contains, for example, tags about starting cash per difficulty.

This topic is currently being discussed here:

http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/336363/Re:_BUGZILLA_report_all_bugs_h#Post336363


Edit 1: Unrelated bug:

I have a Dual Mode (4x and 1.5x) scope on an M16A3. When I try to change zoom levels, the game CTDs after a black screen. I get the error "Unhandled exception. Unable to recover."

7572 SCI + AFS RC8 Patched.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/fofeztcjezzhd28/SaveGame03.sav?dl=0

The IMP nicknamed 'Boss' has the M16A3 in question. It has a Premium IC Suppressor, a KCB knife, an AR-15 fixed stock, and a cleaning kit attached to it.

Seems to be a problem only in combat, if I jump to the map screen right after the mercs drop down from the helicopter, I can change scope modes without the CTD

Edit 2: Whoa, what's up with the number of squares here?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/6qbn4edqbjo07gw/Example%204.png?dl=0
Theres 11 enemies in Omerta West, and it says 11 (13) in sector A8 as well, but theres only 4 squares there? What happened to having one yellow square per merc and one red square per enemy?

Edit 3: I saved before trying this again after a few battles and had a CTD, but upon reload, i can't reproduce this

With the addition of tanks in the display and increased team sizes there was a need to lower the number of squares. There is now a symbol for 10 soldiers or mercs. In your case it's 10+1 and 10+3. Your 10 mercs are also represented by only one symbol. It might take some getting used to.

Any similar crashes with other transforming optics?

I'll have to see where everything has moved when I get around to redoing the XML's.

Has anyone faced tanks yet in AFS? Wondering if the current early game supply of HE is helping or simply unbalancing.

Single-shot only AR-15 type weapons have duplicates to account for the two trigger group lower receivers (technically 3 if you count the Colt lower with the long magazine well).

What resolution are you running? I just hired Hitman with a rifle and nothing seems odd in 800x600.


Repeat question: how is the balance against the tanks?

Some feedback

Finally playing through at a decent rate, at progress 40/40, day 8

Attacking Grumm for the first time, already have cambria, don't have Alma

DT SRS .308 is OP with that 5.5x reflex sight compared to a M40A1 with a 6x scope, and i found both one battle after the other

Didn't have any 40mm drops to fight a tank, somehow the militia beat a tank that went to attack n. drassen on day 3 or so

Edit 1: There is a NADA item in a chest in the Dentist's office in Drassen. That should be a Med Kit, from what i remember.

The 5.5x Reflex Scope is probably the biggest factor, though the lower draw of the bullpup rifle is certaintly another plus for the DT SRS. May nerf the DT and other RIS Optics mount sniper rifles by given them a 6x (non-reflex) scope as a default, using the existing 4x may just be as bad as the 5.5x Reflex. Are you playing under NCTH? The scope penalties that the plain 6x scope has vs the 5.5x reflex scope may be magnified (bad pun...)

I'll take a look at the Drassen Dentist in stock to see what that NADA item is, there is may be a missing item in the compatibility range for AFS.

EDIT: looks like darts are in the chest
EDIT2: yes, the Tranquilzer Dart was not moved to the "stock" index, fixed in the v4.50 Preview (soon to be released)

Double Posting to Announce:

[s]Arulco Folding Stock v4.50 Preview 20141116 on MediaFire[/s]
Obsolete see below
  • Tested with SCI_Unstable_Revision_7654_on_GameDir_2184
  • Details

Plans: I noticed something added to the scripts recently that may let me make Deidranna Lives!-1.13 work without adding maps (ie. going back to the purity of the original intent). Once that's been investigated, I will be fixing bugs found in the previews and adding stuff.

Currently on the List:[List]
[*]RPG-2 - probably have create the graphics myself
[*]Bazooka - from IoV
[*]Airtronic RPG-7 - from IoV
[*]FGM-148 Javelin - from IoV
[*]40mm Hellhound HEDP round - from IoV (yes I'm finally doing something with the graphics)
[*]Walther P22 Target - I'll probably replace the current IoV P22 graphic as well
[*]Walther PK380
[*]Walther PPQ M2 - 9x19mm (Navy), .40 S&W, .22LR, 5inch barrels too...
[*]Walther PPS - 9x19mm
[*]Desert Tech MDR and MDR-C - 7.62x51mm, 7.62x39, .300BLK, 6.8x43mm, and 5.56x45
[*]perhaps a few more things if there is time before year's end like the Gen I Glocks (ie. Glock 17L), just need to resurrect the original graphics. The reality is I've already started graphics for the guns I'm creating the graphics for above, just haven't progressed too far in the last few months...

EDIT: Preview 2 (after DL-1.13's 1st v4.50 Preview) will add some of the new AT stuff.

Something i didnt mention, Advanced Angled Grip does a great deal to assist accuracy as well, I just realized i had one on the DT SRS along with the 5.5x scope. I recall adding the 5.5x to a KAC SR-25 (didn't use AAG) and i had a decent amount of trouble lining up shots even with the 5.5x.

I still feel that an early Grumm take, with that rifle having multiple drops (had enough to arm a squad with em), is a bit too much. I recommend removing it from the enemy item list vs nerfing the rifle/scope

Quote:
Are you playing under NCTH?

Yes, always

Edit 1: I just realized we're not able to add a IC suppressor to the Magpul PDRs because of the integrated sound/flash suppressor. Is this for balance purposes?

Edit 2: I just remembered that there was a rifle of some sort that had an attachment slot for all tac-rail optics...and then another spot over the front of the barrel where you could add some smaller optics. Do you know which rifle this was?

Something i didnt mention, Advanced Angled Grip does a great deal to assist accuracy as well, I just realized i had one on the DT SRS along with the 5.5x scope. I recall adding the 5.5x to a KAC SR-25 (didn't use AAG) and i had a decent amount of trouble lining up shots even with the 5.5x.

I still feel that an early Grumm take, with that rifle having multiple drops (had enough to arm a squad with em), is a bit too much. I recommend removing it from the enemy item list vs nerfing the rifle/scope

Quote:
Are you playing under NCTH?

Yes, always
I could move the DT SRS up to later in the enemy game progression. If I remember correctly Grumm gets a bump to enemy game progress due to proximity to the Meduna.

Edit 1: I just realized we're not able to add a IC suppressor to the Magpul PDRs because of the integrated sound/flash suppressor. Is this for balance purposes?
I just thought it was an integral part.

Edit 2: I just remembered that there was a rifle of some sort that had an attachment slot for all tac-rail optics...and then another spot over the front of the barrel where you could add some smaller optics. Do you know which rifle this was?
I think I ended up allowing Lite RIS Optics to fit on all Top-Forward RIS rails. Saved on an attachment, originally there were two AK RIS Quad's - one with an extra Optics Slot, one without. This change allowed me to get rid of one.

Thanks, this will be fixed in all 3 for the next Preview (the one with all the new AT weapons).

EDIT: Concerning Tank balance, given the following default setting

; Depending on game difficulty enemy groups created during offensives can include tanks.
ARMY_USES_TANKS_IN_ATTACKS = TRUE
; Depending on game difficulty enemy patrols at game start can be randomly reinforced with. 
ARMY_USES_TANKS_IN_PATROLS = TRUE
; Minimum progress required for tanks to appear.
TANK_MINIMUM_PROGRESS = 30


is the following progression fair?

Progress 3 = RKG-3M AT Hand Grenade - takes 3+ to kill a tank in testing

Progress 4 = Bazooka and RPG-2 - available as used item and Devin only (no rounds via BR, just the tubes), still wanting 2-3 rounds per tank

Progress 4 = AT Rifle Launched Grenade, damage will close to the RKG-3M (a little more)

Progress 5 = LAW / RPG-7 / PG-7 Anti-Tank Rocket - damage values of the LAW and PG-7 will be made roughly equivalent, roughly 2 rounds per tank as right now

Progress 6 = PG-7VR Tandem Rocket - more powerful round for RPG-7, 1-2 rounds per tank

Progress 6 = Airtronic RPG-7 - lighter than "classic," and uses RIS mount vs RSA

Progress 7 = RPG-26 - more powerful warhead than LAW

Progress 7 = AT-4 - same warhead as LAW, but with NV capable sight

Progress 7 = Carl Gustaf M3/ CG 84mm HEDP - same damage as LAW

Progress 7 = 40mm HEDP Grenade - damage of the RKG-3M, but fragments of the 40x46mm grenade

Progress 8 = RPG-27 - more range and damage than RPG-26

Progress 8 = Carl Gustaf M3/ CG 84mm HEAT - same damage as RPG-26, less damage radius than 84mm HEDP

Progress 8 = M224 Mortar, as it is now

Progress 9 = Mark 153 SMAW / SMAW High Explosive Dual Purpose / SMAW High Explosive Anti-Armour

Progress 9 = Commando Mortar, as it is now

Progress 10 - FGM-148 Javelin - Thermal/LAM sight, 1-2 rounds and it will be hard to miss (to make up for lack of top attack/fire-and-forget in-game)

Why yes, you are right, there are quite a few things missing from my FacilityTypes.xml - so I am also simply overwroting my file with the one from the current SCI in AFS and DL-1.13.

The next UC-1.13 v4.50 Preview (soon) will have the missing assignments added. I noticed while working on the UC-1.13 XML that the SCI Facilities seem to have lost some functionality. For now at least, I'm not removing anything from this one, we'll just pretend that Danubia has better (urbanized) infrastructure than Arulco.


Running into some oddities with NCTH and launchers, it seems that NCTH tags are not being read from the launcher itself, but are read from attachments (like the round being launched). Not sure if this is intentional, Preview 2 of AFS v4.50 (sooner than UC-1.13 v4.50 Preview 2) will have some new NCTH tags added to rounds to give the effect of better launchers later on. The AT4 is also going to not have NV built-in, but instead will have a RIS rail.

EDIT: ...and we're back to the AT4 being equipped with a NV Sight. It looks like the transformation from weapon to tube eats the attachment.

I don't think the 37mm Underslung Flare/Riot Launcher was ever allowed on the Colt M203 MP5 Handguard, but it is allowed on the TactiKool-Aid MP5 RIS Handguard.

Ok, now that I'm testing things I see what is going on - I think I dropped small lower RIS compatibility for the 37mm launcher during the last rebuild of the (New)Common Attachment System scheme. I'll set it be an attachment on a case by case basis (attachments.xml) for the 2x MP5 handguards.

Hello all!

I don't know if this has been mentioned before, and indeed I am not sure if it is actually a bug, but in 4.50 AFS (and in UC) the compatible items in the sector inventory don't seem to highlight any more.

Compatible ammunition still highlights when you mouse over a weapon but not the attachments.

Is this the intended behaviour?

cheers!
