The only official Vengeance: Reloaded download can be found on our download page here;

https://thepit.ja-galaxy-forum.com/index.php?t=msg&th=23264&start=0&

The 'great reset' build is the one you want. This download is also available at the bear's pit storage area.

Changelogs are also available on the download page.

Hopefully we will also be getting out a new build in the future as we missed the Christmas release that we usually provide, but a few of us are still beavering away fixing bugs, making tweaks and adding new content.

Your older game saves in theory should be okay, but we can't guarantee it.

Thank you very much for respond.
I'll then go definitely with the version from here as you are suggesting.

4 questions please...
1)
Do I need these 2 additional files from links below as the notes says or it is not needed anymore?
On web pages:
"From 29th Jan you will also need this latest exe that fixes a number of recruitment issues, just copy this over your existing JA2_Vengeance.exe in the parent folder"

https://www.mediafire.com/file/ybkeq62242fi0s9/JA2_Vengeance.exe/file

and then other file from note...
"Finally an extra file is required to be downloaded which was released after the SCI"

https://www.mediafire.com/file/kslktiwx1dfm26x/216.jpc.7z/file
"Please download this file and copy it into your main\Data-Vengeance\Faces folder, this fixes an issue where some battles crash during auto-resolve."

2)
Please this is probably kind of silly question. Where in the game I can see the version of the game (or better of this mod)? I have the feel you can see that on loading screen before main menu pops up. But that is short time. Is there anywhere else listed the version, please?

3) You mentioned in you respond the work on new content. Do you have insight on what it is? What we can get excited about please?
4) I went through the forum and different topics, but I can't find the link for download the changelog. Could you please provide the link?

1. Yes, download those extra files you mention above and you should be up to date with the rest of the public.

2. Unfortunately I dont have your build number handy I have a different closed build running so can't tell you the number. If it loads too quickly you can try and screen grab it by hitting Print Screen then look for the .tga it saves in your profiles/UserProfile_Vengeance folder. The 'Great Reset' suffix is the correct one. We tend to group them in Beta numbers, so the latest public one is Beta 8. If you scroll down the pages on the download page it will list the most notable changes and fixes that's the closest you'll get to a changelog.

3. New content is ongoing, and nothing I'd say incredibly groundbreaking, generally improvement with some graphics, music, sound effects and some UI improvements as well as ongoing code improvement, bug squishing and some efforts with balancing.

4. See above.

Thank you @Hawkeye for respond.
I did eventually find the changelog. Thank you.

All good now.

When I was reading changelog for beta 8 I came across line talking about Paratroop attacks. That I so far never experienced. It is enemy type of attack or I can do it or both? If I can do it, how it is done, please? What do I need for it?
Only idea I have is with chopper, but Skyrider never wants drop my MERCs into "hot" zone where enemies are present.

Paratroop attacks have been in Vengeance for a while. They are something that only the enemy do. They act a little like an ambush with Airborne troops arriving in a neighbouring sector and then rushing to attack you. I've found this happens more after you've taken certain cities and the Queen attempts an attack this way.

Hello, Hawkeye.
I see. Maybe that's why I didn't noticed it yet. Because I did take control over only Omerta, Drassen, Alma and now I can't remember name of the city. It is in the middle of the map kinda. In vanilla has hospital.
Thank you for answer.
Have a great day! happy

Hello everybody.

Please I'm wondering if there is a way to incerase the maximum number for active MERCs than 32? In INI file max value is 32. Can I change it somehow, please? So I can have let's say 50 MERCs.

In INI file there is two options I wonder about.
One is about enemy generals. Is it functional? If true, can I meet some special enemy followed by well geared soldiers? Or how that look in the game, please?

Second is about weapon stashes. Is it also functional? I didn't get far in previous version which I find out it was 1.13.7609+ build 20.01.18. I did liberated only Omerta, Drassen, Alma and hospital city in the center-ish of the map. So was I able to came across some stashes already? Because I didn't notice some boxes or lockers with a good weapon loot.

Is Railgun eventually available at Tony as clean ones so my MERCs will be able to use them, please?

Hello.
So now I'm continuing in the playing from older version as saves are working. Now I'm noticing my snipers are way worse then they were. Usually I was able to defend against group this size with headshot oriented fight, but now it is not almost possible. Was something changed for chance to hit or something, please? Now seems to me snipers have way bigger penalties for trying to hit head. Seems to me it wasn't like that in version I had before. I'm playing on insane. And for example look on attached picture for better idea what I mean. Ratio is 2 enemies on one merc. I'm trying to not involve militia as they always picking up all good weapons and get themselves killed. It is true I don't use spotter in this fight. Would that be improve enough? And please what are the hotkeys for menu where can be selected spotter, please? I can't find it anywhere on the web. I got that only from hint during loading screen. Now I don't remember it.
Thank you and have a great day.

Headshots were always are harder target than in Vanilla, that's been like that for a long time though there were some changes or rather new features such as the 'new vision mode' which disables instant vision bonus for scopes and binoculars, allows to choose spot which will use full vision bonus from scopes and binoculars and activates focus skill. This feature is turned off by default in the ini, so check your settings. In fact it's best to take a look at those, as many features/settings have a brief breakdown of what they do.

As far as spotting is concerned you can use spotters who have binoculars or other sights who must be within a certain range of their fellow sniper. Do a search in Seven's or Flugente's threads.

The Railgun is a one-off special weapon so it won't be available at Bobby Rays, or Tony's. Some Railgun ammo is dotted around some maps though.

Is there a way to get off of the Burton helipad? I have a team there that I sent because I kept getting attacked by enemies there, which would then crash the game 100% of the time. Now they're stuck there. I still have more on the main map that I want to do. I can't seem to find an exit at the little island where they emerge. My one thought was skyrider, but that seems broken too - I have Estoni, I have mercs there, but its outside of Skyrider's range to return with sufficient fuel, so he won't fly there, so I can't use it to refuel! Am I missing something with Estoni? I talked to the old guy with the Orta keycard but didn't find anyone else. And am I missing something with the helipad? I think I saw on another forum that there might be a ferry landing elsewhere from the endgame area, but I was hoping for more clarity than an uncertain answer like that.

Thank you!


Edit:
I kept digging and found a solution to reuniting my team:
"you can backtrack back to the mainland by returning to the NW part of Malino island (O11) and there is a teleport near the bollards at the waters edge in the mid Western part of the map. This represents the ferry mooring that travels between O11 and N10 where you can travel on foot as usual from there."

Still not sure if I'm missing something or if its a bug with the fuel though.

Which map sector was it that you were having the crash 100% of the time? Do you have a save before the crash we could take a look at?

There are refuelling options in Estoni similar to what happened in the original JA2. Shank is no longer present but talking to Jake with another character who knew Shank should get that feature working.

Thank you for your response. I have looked for Jake several times but haven't had any luck finding him, I'll look again. The crash happened when I controlled M3-M4, O3-O4, and P3. O2 was the only enemy sector bordering O3, and the crash would happen whenever I was attacked, which seemingly came from O2. Mercs being in the O3 tunnels didn't seem to make a difference. It stopped crashing when I took O2.

Edit: Took Matt and found Jake, now Estoni works as a fuel site, thank you!

Hello.
I tried comparison of my older version with newest one. There is significant difference in CtH for my snipers. I have 4 pictures in total. 2 for each version where each shows CtH without any aiming and second with full aim or reaching max CtH, meaning 100% CtH.

Please see attached pictures.

I focused most of my IMP mercs for sniper. Now with newest CtH they are almost useless with snipers. I would like to keep the newest version of course since it is most updated, more bugs fixed etc. But I would like to change CtH back on values of older version. How I can do that, please? Edit some files? Where I can find them. What I need to change, please? I like very much sniping and I find huge enjoyment in it. That's why I want previous values back.

My older version is (from in game listing with key "V"): JA2 Vengeance : Reloaded 1.13.7609+ (Build 20.01.18).

Older version no aim...
/index.php?t=getfile&id=359&private=0

Older version with max CtH...
/index.php?t=getfile&id=358&private=0

New version no aim...

New version max aim...

Do you have the same ini values in both games? Be aware there's a new vision mode Seven introduced, though that should be turned off by default. I can only speculate some values maybe hardcoded in the exe, but you could also look at other values in the ini. I haven't noticed a huge drop in shooting with snipers when aiming, though there are some drops when trying to hit a running target.

No, there's not. But at a pinch you could look up the characters profile in MercProfiles.xml for their intended location.

Hello.
Thank you for your answer. You were right! Some of the values in INI file are different. But I’m not sure if those values I’m thinking of are the right ones. Because I might used in INI editor different INI file for run the game.
So, I’m editing INI File: Data-Vengeance\Ja2_Options.INI (it is the very last one in the drop-down menu). Maybe I used before different INI File in INI editor to run the game. But for this test I tried both with the same mentioned above and results are still same. Significant drop in aiming accuracy in the new version.
There I think values I need to edit are in the section “Tactical Gameplay Settings”.

Aiming levels reduction on ALTWeaponhold (Not sure if this is for snipers in prone position though.)
Realistic tracers
Num Bullets per tracer
CTH bump per tracer
Min range for tracer (I’m not sure if tracer bullets apply for snipers as I think this is more for auto-fire)
CTH penalty for target movement
MAX CTH penalty for moving target
All values are same in both versions for INI file: Data-Vengeance\Ja2_Options.INI.

Is there anything else what I need to look for, please?

My new test is on enemy showed up from behind the corner. Both cases enemy is standing, so not in running position and movement.

So, if it is not INI values I listed and there are no other values that I’m not aware of, it might be the hardcoding in the EXE file maybe. If that is the case, is there anything that I can do to reverse it to the old values, please? Or is there a chance for update in the future fixing this, please?

Also, that mode Seven you mentioned is what exactly, please? Where in the INI editor I can find it? What does it do, please?

If will be easier to provide files for you to look at it, please just let me know which ones and I’ll do it!

No aim in old version has 38% CtH
/index.php?t=getfile&id=363&private=0

Maximum CtH in old version (100%) don't even need to all aim levels for shot to be 100% CtH...
/index.php?t=getfile&id=364&private=0

New version no aim has 6% CtH
/index.php?t=getfile&id=365&private=0

Maximum aim using all aim levels goes only up to 80% CtH
/index.php?t=getfile&id=366&private=0

You might be able to find some answers in his Experimental mod thread too, though as far as I know not all of these features made it to Vengeance: Reloaded.

Hello.
Thank you for answer.
I watched the video. Tried to follow process of using it, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. Accuracy is still the same for me. On top of that this mode limits shooter on very small area of visibility during combat, which it makes playing even harder. I don't like that. I would prefer to not use vision mode.

Is there any chance for me to get back into new version accuracy for snipers how it used to be in older version, please? I really want to keep playing as sniping guy. Was my favourite thing to do.

Thank you and have a great day.

Unfortunately code won't be changing any time soon for this. If you still prefer a lot easier sniping game all I can suggest is you could attempt to play with the old exe with the latest data from the newest build. There may be some clashes on the way and the bugs that were fixed since will still remain.

Hello.
Okay. Thank you for your answer. I'll try that and I'll post here if that worked for me.
EDIT: It works! Accuracy is back to previous values. Thank you for the tip. :-)

Can I have a probably silly question, please? If I run EXE file instead INI editor, what INI file is chosen to use for run the game? There is 7 to choose from. So I wonder which INI settings are automatically chosen when EXE file is run.

Can anyone explain the purpose of the SKS vs SKS PU? From what I understand, the SKS PU just has +1 accuracy but can't take any scope. Is there something I'm missing or should you never use an SKS PU if you have access to an SKS also?

Also, the little scope on the SKS PU seems to imply some sort of magnification unless I'm totally wrong :X I'm not a gun head at all. Is there some magnification missing?

Originally the PU was just an upgraded weapon possibly from the original Vengeance or an early version of AIMNAS used by both your team and enemies in the early stages of the game. Originally the scope was fixed but I thought it was replaceable or removable in later builds.

I'll have to take a look at the magnification values, that does sound like an omission.

For the most part if you kill someone there's usually ramifications.

With the Cows quest you're not supposed to be able to fast travel as you are on an escort mission for Dwight, so most of what you have done is as it should be. It was a long time ago but it was decided that both Stanley and Dragon had been set as independent factions to avoid players getting stuck should they kill them or trigger them to become hostile. If you had a good conversation with Dwight before you should get an idea that there are two factions interested in his goods which he wants escorted elsewhere, so if you decided to help him those two other groups turn hostile. Other options were you could have killed Dwight and then taken his goods to either party.

So far with your play through you have finished part 1 of a possible multi-part quest, which you may find out about later. Stanley hanging around is a bit of a compromise with how the quest was set up, but sounds like it is as it should be for now.

I'm using multiple computers and want to play the same save across devices. What folders or files outside of folders need to be saved to ensure I'm getting the same experience? Off the top of my head, I know I definitely want to move ja_options.ini from the VR folder.

I ask because I tried lazily copying the entire JA2VR folder onto a USB stick and it was like 20 minutes because of the crazy amount of small files so I'd like to copy across the minimum amount of files possible.

Are there any reliable, consistent sources of gas? I usually find enough gas to drive around pretty stress-free but I switched up my strategy this game and have been burning a lot more gas than usual.

As far as I can remember Dave still provides Gas if you buy the pick-up truck from him. I also believe you can negotiate getting gasoline from Jake by having him talk with Dynamo I think, like you did in Vanilla with Shank, but it's been a while. There are also a number of tanks of gas as drop items on a number of Hale & Burton maps, but once they are picked up and used, that's it.
