yay for admin thing!

**1longtime** · 11-03-2009, 11:59 PM

Any chance for the beta to get pushed to the server?

I can't wait to get suppressed by some enemy AI!

**Miles** · 11-04-2009, 01:41 AM

Just want to add that I've installed the beta patch and have also experienced a noticeable increase in performance around towns.

**Pistolfied** · 11-04-2009, 03:12 AM

Units falling through buildings with the first aid modules has been fixed too, hurray!!!!
http://dev-heaven.net/issues/show/5109

Won't have people falling off the carrier on carver's carrier assault mission anymore (while being dragged).

**fuzzhead** · 11-05-2009, 10:56 AM

Any word yet if this is installed on the server?

**browna3** · 11-05-2009, 11:11 AM

as of yet, the beta patch has not been applied to either servers, will let you know if this changes

**Skin** · 11-05-2009, 11:28 AM

Please don't apply the beta patch to the server as I keep experience a fatal CTD 'pixelshader' error on startup when I try to run the beta patch.

Check that your beta is installed properly. That is the result if a bad install.

A couple of new betas have been released since this thread was last updated, and the build numbers have now passed the 60000 mark

Changelog since it was last posted in this thread:

Code:

[60090]  Fixed: Improved vehicles and motorcycles driving. 
[60068]  New: Alt-Enter can be used to switch window/fullscreen while paused. 
[60015]  New: Execute action with LMB can be unmapped. 
[60013]  Fixed: Possible freeze under Vista/Win7 when Alt-Tabing out of the game during progress screen. 
[59999]  Fixed: Player is no more target when commanding in external view. 
[59988]  New: Windowed/Fullscreen can now be switched ingame (in Video options).

**Romaniac** · 11-10-2009, 02:39 PM

wow...these really do sound great.

**Inkompetent** · 11-10-2009, 03:20 PM

Wow. I downloaded build 60000 last night, and they sure have got some nice updates since then!

   [59899]  Fixed: AI did not use suppressive fire against enemies seen while holding fire. 
   [59898]  Fixed: Spatial explosions sounds 
   [59875]  New: Suppressive fire against known enemies can be scripted using unit suppressFor time.

New suppressive fire stuff sounds very interesting. Will certainly make AI battle drill scripts easier and more effective!

Does this mean I can take the limit off of my RAM and run all 8GB now and have textures load instead of seeing a bunch of untextured shapes??

Also.... I just tried to download the latest beta patch and the site is down?? Anyone know what's up with that?

**Rommel** · 11-11-2009, 06:12 AM

A bit frustrating to see how many bugs I have posted, and only one has been set to fix by the next version, but in any case, progress is good. I will just have to update them all if they aren't fixed... that'll stir it up.

By the way, my list as so far:

ID Type Status Priority Description
5678 Bug Assigned Low Screen position and Particle FX
5754 Bug Assigned Normal SynchronizedObjects Undetectable by Client
5052 Bug Assigned High CTD with deleteCollection
5708 Bug Feedback Normal FSM's Continue To Run After Mission End
5479 Bug Assigned Normal Running -> Walking Throw Grenade Animation Bug
5356 Bug Assigned High FPS Drop Proportional with No. Entity's
5677 Feature Assigned Normal Request: nearestBuilding <position>
5474 Bug Assigned Normal Queue Burst Fire
5147 Bug Assigned Urgent Mission.sqm Memory Leak
5473 Bug Assigned Normal AI using Smoke grenades instead of HE
4693 Bug Assigned Normal Grenade Lunchers
2070 Bug Assigned Normal Crash Oppurtunitys (Alt Tab and Memory Flush)
2436 Bug Assigned Normal F35B AI cannot stay in the air.
5255 Bug Assigned Normal Street lamps damage not acquired by JIP players
4952 Bug Assigned Normal Player Discon BIS Error
3681 Bug Assigned Normal Ambient Combat Manager - Unfinished code overrides mission settings

Just from this month

. I will have hundreds more for them after the next patch

. Anyway, they assigned those priority values based off their own reproductions from the repro steps given.

**Gungnir** · 11-12-2009, 04:24 AM

Tear it up Rommel, those guys need to hear about this stuff, and keep hearing it till they fix it. This game is great, and the only one I play, but there are some issues for sure.

**Inkompetent** · 11-12-2009, 03:56 PM

Yet another beta patch out! This time it's the AI that has got a polish.

Code:

[60129]  Fixed: AI subordinates now move faster (use less cover) to catch up when leader is way ahead of them. 
[60102]  Fixed: AI subordinates should now respect formation more when moving in combat. 
[60101]  Fixed: Group leader was often running far ahead alone in combat. 
[60092]  Fixed: AI leader did not wait for a player to cover him when moving in combat.
