Just wanted to clearify a bit what I'm refering to. The merc limit is hardcoded at 32 max mercs at any given time and it can only be done at .exe level as far as I understand it. There's a mod called "Pending Feature: Increased Team sizes" that does this so it should be possible (I hope)? I only play Jagged with your exe now and would love to see this feature implemented. Thank you for you time happy

Flamethrower tweaks:
- flamethrower is defined as weapon index = 16 or weapon having ammo flag 32
- flame has same as AMMO_BLIND effect
- no accuracy drop for overheated flamethrower
- no impact reduction by range for flamethrower
- flame is not stopped when hitting soldiers (so you can hit multiple with one shot)
- flamethrowers don't produce much recoil kick (recoil kick is based on weapon's impact value so it's greatly reduced for flamethrowers)
- don't play bullet impact sound when using flamethrower
- special 'fire dance' death animation for flamethrower when hit in torso
- no other special animations for flamethrower (head/chest explosion/fly back)
- no special effects for head hit (concussed, shocked)
- no damage bonus when hit in the head
- failed gun unjam results in fire created at soldier's spot (it's a bad idea to use overheated or badly damaged flamethrower)
- fire is created at hit spot
- no impact reduction when fighting zombies (with ZOMBIE_ONLY_HEADSHOTS_WORK option)
- no critical hits from flame
- no damage to structures from flame hit (burnable/explosive structures will be damaged later by fire)
- limit flamethrower distance, stop flame bullet even if it doesn't hit something (realistic feature representing fuel burning out in the air at certain distance)
- player mercs and can die instantly if attacked with flame, even if instant death option disabled
- zombies can die instantly if attacked with flame
- no damage/breath reduction from flame attack for creatures except queen, greatly reduce reduction factor for queen
- no bleeding from flame attacks
- no blood drops from flame attacks
- higher chance to drop weapon when attacked with flamethrower
- always stop flame at wall (to prevent fire from getting through wall)
- no protection from flame for creatures
- armour plates provide no protection from flame
- when calculating protection against flame attacks, scale armour with coverage, no armour weak spot code

New experimental option NCTH_SQRT_DISTANCE (default FALSE) which changes increase law for max aperture from linear to sqrt at distance > NORMAL_SHOOTING_DISTANCE.
This change makes shots at distance more accurate in general.
Add this option to Ja2_Options.ini, [Extended Options] section.

For example, Igor, no scope, 250m, linear mode

Igor, no scope, 250m, sqrt mode

Battle from a save game sent by one of the players.
7609 modpack, 1.13 + AR, AI r2506.
Some ini tweaks to make the game more even:
ENEMY_AP_BONUS_INSANE = 0
BASE_DIFFICULTY_INSANE = 0.0
AIM_DIFFICULTY_INSANE = 0.0
Also EARLY_REBELS_RECRUITMENT = 1 allows to immediately hire rebels, as 4 vs 13 it's probably unwinnable.
Since enemy is armed with pistols, the main idea is to keep distance between mercs and opponents to have advantage.
Also don't save ammo as long bursts can be very effective and compensate lack of accuracy.
Some wound in the end could be avoided if I was less tired and a bit more cautious.
Note the use of focus feature to gain some interrupt level boost at selected area.

r2514
Enabled tactical panel on the left side if there is not enough free place in team panel and left info panel is disabled in options.
Fixed NCTH bug which forced maximum visibility penalty when target was even behind slight cover.
NCTH tweaks for better balance.
When focusing, added small penalty outside focus area.
Improved NCTH chance estimation with [F] key, also should help AI.
Fixed fire creation from regular bullets when damaging structures.

After a long break, I felt the urge to install JA2 again and felt like going for the Arulco Vacations variety this time.
At the end of the OP for the mod, I've been instructed to "download the latest Sevenfm +AI Executable" with a link to message #47454, which I unfortunately can't link to due to forum restrictions for new users. The Google Drive link shared in that post seems to be dead. Is there a mirror somewhere?

Author got upset by Ukrainian flag in forum's logo (he's Russian), so he deleted his account here and also his Google Drive archives. You can download +AI from Yandex; unfortunately I can't post a link, because for some reason one can do it only after writing 5 posts - but I sent you a PM with it.

For me, many files are flagged as containing some virus and Windows won't let them get downloaded - I don't know if it's just false positives or a real thing, so beware.

----

Link to yandex with files for 7609+AI and Modpacks

In folder "JA2+AI" you'll find the exe for 7609+AI

In "JA2_mofpack" you find the two modpacks.

One pack for 7609-mods (like AV)

and another modpack for latest 1.13 (called "unstable modpack", the unstable refers to being under constant development, not to actual being unstable)

--

The modpacks come as spanned zip-archives (users with older OS can't download files >1GB, that's why)

If you want a modpack, download both files for it (001 and 002), put them in same directory and unpack 001, this will automatically unpack 002 as well

benefit of the modpacks is that you get all available mods at once (i.e., the 7609-modpack contains AV and more)

and all is pre-assembled, you only need your original ja2 as base and drag'n'drop the content of modpack over it

--

Never had any virus warnings or other bull happening with sevens files, not a single one in years of using.

Is it sufficient to just copy or replace the .exe file? The entire folder is too big to download without installing some yandex cloud-drive software and I've got a prepared 1.13 folder anyway.

If you only need it for an already installed version of AV, the single exe is enough

Hello! uninitiated here. I recently wanted to play the 7609 +ai revision after playing for quite some time the newer ones from github. But after installing a new game from steam, and getting the rest from that yandex folder (the entire 7609 modpack), i can't get rid of that grey screen help (like seen here #363964 ) after i land in Omerta, no matter what combination of keys i press. So I'm wondering if this is a "works in my machine" situation or if there's a fix for this (or i forgot one key in particular). Playing in windows 10 with 1336 x 768 res if that helps anything :w

As I understand, with "APPS" the key left of the right ctrl-key is meant ("application"-key)

Under the video is a description where in (+ai)-ja2_options.ini this is defined
