Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter version 1.16
CHANGENOTES 13/06/2006
Last minute additions
- Shortened the delay between shots in semiautomatic on most weapons.
- Switched the grenade sights with a more appropriate one.
Use the short line when targets are of that relative size, use the larger line
when targets are closer, and use the small line to aim when you fire(in an
arch) at far away targets.
- Hostile AI will notice dead friends up to 30 meters. This was previously too
short at 6 meters.
Updates
- Game mode Deathmatch added.
A new gametype Deathmatch(DM) has been added to the game, along with 3 new DM
maps.
- New coop missions.
Missions 1, 5 and 9 have been updated to work in Coop mode. You can now enjoy
the full campaign in multiplayer.
- Server interface revamped.
Numerous new server options are now availiable:
Start match conditions ("All slots full", "All players are ready", "one player
on each side is ready", and "server is ready").
Tactical points can be disabled.
Any player joining a spawn limited server will only have as many spawns as the
player with the least left, or 0 if the match has only 1 spawn.
Players on a spawn limited server will be spawned automatically into the game
after 60 seconds.
A "Immortality at respawn" option has been added, and it can be from 1 to 10
seconds.
- Statistics screen for Domination has been updated.
It now contains better overall match statistics, round statistics and keeps
stats from round to round(for the duration of the match).
You can now see the current match scores and time remaining in the ingame
status screen, default "Tab" key.
- Weapon kits are now availiable.
At the bottom of the Inventory you can now find 4 default kits, fully
customizeable. If a server is playing with the "Disabled tactical points"
option, your selected kit will automatically be re-selected on every spawn.
- Better impact sensation.
Some new sounds have been added for when you're hit or when hitting others.
When hit, your reticule will be nudged off center.
Character models have also been updated, so there's a generally larger area
considered to be a "headshot". Weapons damage has also been updated, increasing
the chance a single shot to the head will generate an instant kill.
- Colors have been added to chat window.
Your actions are represented by blue, while red is hostile activity. A yellow
hue is used for status messages and chat is still white.
The chat window can now also be toggled in three modes, default key "u".
Regular, transparent or hidden.
- Chat has been added to status screens.
- Chat Window now allows for more text in higher resolutions.
- A sticky leaning feature (enabled by default) has been added in the Game
options.
- Primary weapon, secondary weapon, backpack, grenade launcher, frag grenade
and smoke grenade can now be bound to hotkeys.
- Anti aliasing: Edge smoothing feature has been added to the graphics
options.
- There's now a "Connecting to" dialog box when connecting to a server. This
will display more information and possible error messages about why you cannot
join a server.
- Custom context.xml files can now be loaded with a -o parameter on GRAW.exe.
- Screenshot button can now be bound from the Options screen. Default key
"Ins".
- Anticheat server option has been added.
When enabled this feature will run certain checks to match the client with the
server. Note that this will affect any users with modded files, including the
main GRAW.exe. If you wish to play using modified files, make sure the server
configuration matches your own, or you will not be able to play(this includes
all files in the ./local/ directory).
- Editor has been added.
Grins own editor has been updated and is now released for public use. You can
always reach the built-in help functions by pressing "F1". We've also included
a basic tutorial document, which you can find in the "Support" directory where
you installed GRAW.
After you've made your map, press "Escape" and then "Export" to prepare the map
for the game. This will allow you to set some options like lightmaps and level
quality. Please note that for large maps rendering these can take a very long
time. Once the process has been completed, a file with your maps name and
extension .bundle can be found in the custom_levels directory of GRAW. This
.bundle file can then be distributed, and is the only result file you need to
share. All players wanting to play your map must have a local copy of it.
AI Updates
- AI now correctly identifies mounted weapons and gun nests as threat.
- AI will now attack vehicles with soldiers that they can harm(including
helicopters).
- AI will now always go into combat mode if being fired upon.
- AI teammates are more prone to seek lower covers. They will sit down
instantly when taking fire.
- AI teammates will try to avoid running in front of you when you are shooting,
if you are close enough.
Fixes
- Changed statistics screen for coop to contain more information for all.
- Fixed a bug where you could get stuck in ghost cam when the coop mission
ended.
- Fixed a bug where AI statistics were lost when a player respawned.
- You can now aim down while lying down(in prone) where it's natural to do so.
