That's likely just wrong interpretation. All the standard scopes are fixed power, what you are seeing is the effective magnification used in the calculation. Try shooting people at.longer range.

In Chitzena only John joins the squad after you agree to escort them. Mary doesnt join. John has spy covert icon on.

Correct. The magnification factor that is displayed in the upper left corner of the NCTH cursor shows the magnification at target range. That means that if a target is 21 tiles away it is at 3x magnification (3x NORMAL_SHOOTING_DISTANCE / 10). For this range the best scope to use would be a 3x scope.
The indicator is green if a scope is used at or beyond its designated range and turns red if used below its designated range. This will apply a penalty which can be quite big, especially for the higher power scopes. Don't use these for close quarter combat.

Ok, thanks.

[edit]

Well, my IMP is still not hitting worth shit even though he has a Marksmanship of ~85, plus the bonus for his Sniper trait.

A 10x scope has a designated range of 10x (NORMAL_SHOOTING_DISTANCE / 10 * SCOPE_RANGE_MULTIPLIER). With the default of 70 for NORMAL_SHOOTING_DISTANCE that means 70 tiles! Certainly too much for the standard maps. The penalty for shooting at a target at 21 tiles range is 67 points which will ruin your CTH.

You can do a number of things to increase CTH with scopes.

1. Don't use a scope below designated range. I know that this is difficult on standard maps.

2. Decrease SCOPE_RANGE_MULTIPLIER. This will make the game "think" that your scope has a lower magnification when it comes to penalty calculation. I'm using a value of 0.7 at the moment which would cause the 10x scope to have a designated range of 49 tiles. That is still too much for the maps I play on so I stick with 7x (~34 tiles) and 8x (~39 tiles) scopes for my sniper rifles and 4x scopes for the ARs.

3. Change AIM_TOO_CLOSE_SCOPE. This is a multiplier used to calculate the penalty for using a scope below designated range. The default is -4.0. To have half the penalty set it to -2.0. You can't set it to something >0 because that would mean a bonus for using a scope below its designated range. Wink


It is difficult to get used to NCTH when you are used to the headshot game that we had with OCTH but I must say that I like it. Mercs have been far to accurate with the old system. With NCTH I usually aim for the torso and get good results. The start was difficult however because I had to get close to the enemy and therefore risk to take some bullets but it was fun.

edit: Btw. this is a screenshot that I took a few minutes ago. My expert sniper was aiming at an elite who was 39 tiles away. She uses a M21 with a 7x scope. The weapon was mounted on a table. Nice small aperture, isn't it? Smile

I've been save scumming every turn and still can't hit 50% of the time with any of my mercs (not just the sniper). Meanwhile redshirt soldiers are getting headshots with shotguns and pistols from several tiles away.

For instance, I had an auto expert with a FAMAS and 2x scope who couldn't hit the enemy from ~15 tiles.

I am giving up and going back to revision 4870.

Darren takes money but no boxer appears on the ring in San Mona.


Those fights are very bugged, make sure you save game before starting to talk to Darren.
Always go in the ring from "front side".
Pay attention where in the ring you click to jump in.

It can happen that as soon you hit other guy Darren will accuse you of cheating.

Sometimes after you get out of the ring Darren wont pay you if you are turned away from him. and you cant control where your soldier will be facing after you exit the ring.

Also sometimes I noticed that you cant take money from your bank account. Buttons are just grayed out. To fix that problem just exit the game and start it again.

In all three cases you have to reload the game form before ouy started talking to Darren.

Anyways for San Mona Extreme Fighting: Always make safe save game before starting the quest.

Another Tip: fight first day only twice, sou you can get more fights before Kingpin invites you to his house. Never kill any of the fighters, you wont be bale to fight them other days.



About NCTH:
In my current game I have Steyr scout with 7x battle scope and it seems like it is working alright, I hit like 66% of shots from 15-25 tiles wit 90 marksmanship merc.
What bothers me more are about 80% missed shots with handguns on 3-5 tiles with mid class mercs with about 60 marksmanship. And lots of missed shots using machine pistols and assault rifles without attachments on single shot mode.
While double pistols for ambidextrous mercs are almost too precise.

Try using different tabs in UDB. Extracting money is only possible with one.

You can fight 3 times the first time and still have more fights on other days.

Sometimes they are very lucky but this happened for my mercs as well. I aimed at the torso but have scored a headshot instead. It just depends on the final bullet path.


Bambusar

Sometimes after you get out of the ring Darren wont pay you if you are turned away from him. and you cant control where your soldier will be facing after you exit the ring.

Not sure but I think that Darren gives the money to the nearest merc. That's why I always pay with one merc that stays next to him and fight with another.


Bambusar

No need to restart. Just switch to the "Desc." tab in the description box.
Maybe the money box should be handled differently code-wise.

edit: There is another problem with money. The display for "Current Money:" at the bottom is always empty.

edit2: Fixed.
- current balance is displayed again at the bottom of the UDB
- UDB resets to Description tab when clicking on money or the deposit/withdraw money button

thx for fast responses

Meanwhile i did some new sprites for new gear with missing images

Fell free to put them to trunk if people like them:
http://www.mediafire.com/?seyjf1vnewjyk9e
In 7z you have 11 files and directions where to copy each one. This was made from files taken from 6232/1704, newer versions will already have this in the trunk.

I will test them right away.

http://prntscr.com/1facz6
This image is showing why I changed tileset icons of backpacks. Old one were IMO a big and looked unnatural in horizontal position (tileset and interface icons were the same).
New ones are smaller and Diagonally placed for Backpacks and Vertically for smaller combat packs, so they are easy to distinguish.

http://prntscr.com/1famty
This is new and old Light knife interface/inventory sprite. Old one used same picture for Light knife and Combat Knife. New inventory sprite allows us to recognize them even if there isnt name below them.

If flashlight seems strange, this millitary flashlight is the one I used.
I didnt choose version that can be attached to helmet since our Flashlight has quite high damage if thrown (18, 5). This one is heavier than helmet versions.



:laugh: Post or PM me (so we dont spam the thread unnecessarily) any other items you find missing or you think need to be redesigned.

6201/1698 [edit] WildFire 6.06 maps

1. Somehow some of my mercs' weapons got switched from the Colt 9mm SMG to the AK-47. I'm pretty near the beginning of the game, and feel the AK-47 might be a bit overpowered. On the other hand, the SMGs had a lot of attachments that I wish I had now.

See the characters named Auto 1 and Auto 2. Save game: http://www.mediafire.com/?12j1ins60z62hca

2. I'm playing at Experienced difficulty. Drassen Airport was just attacked, and 40 veteran militia lost versus 18 red shirts. Is this normal? Red shirts used to lose pretty bad against veterans.

IIRC this has been in vanilla that MERC website can disappear for a while (and comes back with a new merc available or such). Don't recall the exact circumstances, tho, like when this could happen, money paid/owed etc.

@ClarkeW

Names are from

..\Jagged Alliance 2 Gold\Data-1.13\TableData\Profiles


This part of Ja2_Options.INI is responsible for that.

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Controls wether enemy soldiers/militiamen can use predefined profiles from TableData/Profiles.
; In the xml, one can specify name/bodytype/hair/skin/traits
; If selected, the game will select a newly created soldier's data from these profiles randomly
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOLDIER_PROFILES_ENEMY   = TRUE
SOLDIER_PROFILES_MILITIA = FALSE



Looks like this part of Ja2_Options.INI is overridden by ENEMY PROFILES.

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Turn this on, and the game uses individual enemy names (in tactical) defined in 'TableData\EnemyNames.xml'.
; If you set this to TRUE, then you have to set INDIVIDUAL_ENEMY_RANK = FALSE.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INDIVIDUAL_ENEMY_NAMES = FALSE

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Turn this on, and the game uses individual enemy names (in tactical) defined in 'TableData\EnemyRank.xml'.
; If you set this to TRUE, then you have to set INDIVIDUAL_ENEMY_NAMES = FALSE.

INDIVIDUAL_ENEMY_RANK = TRUE

Is this the right place for reporting ?

6221_on_GameDir_1703

I found missing M.E.R.C. Kit selections in AFS - though wil473 pointed out one of them is a Stock v113 issue:
Mausi
Some item kits are missing for M.E.R.C. characters, namely
- Walter Yuntz has no kit 5
- Gregory "Spooky" Block has only kit 5 (some clothes)


wil473
Wally's Kit 5 was missing a food item. For some reason there has to be something filled into the pocket slots for kits 2-5 to appear. This is not a problem in UC-1.13 as only kit 1 is used, but for this and DL-1.13 I've been using food items to make Kit 5 always appear.

I'll add gear selections to Spooky if he is now appearing in stock v1.13 M.E.R.C. I thought he was left off the roster for players to activate via XML editing as they saw fit.

Using SCI_Unstable_Revision_6232_on_GameDir_1704 I noticed the following:

At the end of a battle (defense of Drassen center sector), a 9mm clip on the ground had 0 bullets.

Creating boxes or crates caused the game to spawn multiple boxes or crates with 0 bullets. Merging items does not get rid of the clip, boxes or crates.

Edit: A workaround is to delete the zero round clip. This seems to fix/avoid the problem.

Mercs turn into fast food maniacs. No, seriously. After saving and loading game, gear kit selections looks like:

Same happens to MERC.
Trying to hire someone:
AIM - without equipment sends merc normally, with "buy equipment" - doesn't send merc or closes hiring window. Closing window manually clears all gear kits.
MERC - without equipment sends merc normally, with - crashes game with "Unhandled exception" error.

Reselecting kit fixes displayed gear, but hiring merc with equipment still crashes game.

Trying to hire someone:
AIM - without equipment sends merc normally, with "buy equipment" - doesn't send merc or closes hiring window. Closing window manually clears all gear kits.
MERC - without equipment sends merc normally, with - crashes game with "Unhandled exception" error.

Reselecting kit fixes displayed gear, but hiring merc with equipment still crashes game.


I sent a fix to RoWa.

Unfortunately there is some broken data in the savegame which was caused by a previous bug. I was able to fix the bug itself but I can't fix the savegame.

The good thing is that you can still use the savegame with this fix. You just need to do the following:

AIM:
1. select the merc that you want to hire
2. select one of the kits. This will update the kit and make it work again.
3. hire the merc.

M.E.R.C:
1. select the merc that you want to hire
2. click on "Inv" to display the gear kits.
3. select one of the kits to make it update
4. hire the merc.

Another bug with Escort John and Marry quest:
JA_6221

Now you can recruit both of them but when you escort them to the Airfield in Drassen mission end dialogue is does not trigger. I tried leaving and entering B13 few times but no avail.

Changing Overhead.lua
elseif ( ProfileIdsSectorX == 13 and ProfileIdsSectorY == SectorY.MAP_ROW_B and ProfileIdbSectorZ == 0 ) then

to
elseif ( ( CheckNPCSectorBool( Profil.MARY, 13, SectorY.MAP_ROW_B, 0 ) == true ) or ( CheckNPCSectorBool( Profil.JOHN, 13, SectorY.MAP_ROW_B, 0 ) == true ) ) then
seems to fix this. Apparently ProfileIdsSectorX, Y, Z aren't set to proper values.


Fixed

Mercs turn into fast food maniacs. No, seriously. After saving and loading game, gear kit selections looks like:

Same happens to MERC.

Fixed, thanks anv for reporting and silversurfer for fixing the bug

One thing just came to mind - there might be some side effects in using such a savegame. Profiles that you can't access through AIM or M.E.R.C. could still contain some invalid data. I ran into this bug with Hamous before the fix. He had lots of NADA items and several HK21s in his inventory. So I wonder what happened to the other profiles...

Greetings :wave:

Pseudo-bug, tested with revisions 6023 and 6221:
The animated *sti files, as well as the A.I.M. roster pictures (not the one in the biography, the one when viewing all mercs) of Monk and Shadow are hardcoded into the exe(?) and won't be overwritten by *sti files placed into the Faces folder.

Any chance to make the exe (or whatever causes it) read the placed *sti files ?

The problem is you are putting your files at "data" folder which is the lowest priority on VFS and they get overruled by the "Data-1.13" folder. You are not even playing vanilla JA2 why are you using "data" folder? Put your files into the folder which mod you are playing.

edit: if you insist on putting them into your "data" folder, you can alternatively delete 10.sti and 170.sti from "Data-1.13\faces"

Please excuse me for not stating it: This is exactly the problem, after seeing that Monk and Shadow were not overwritten with the files from Data/faces, i placed the files to Data-1.13/faces as well. But the *sti files were still not used by the game.
