Taken off Nova-Inside NovaLogic is also testing new .exe files out for Joint Operations. WARNING: Must be PC experienced, unfinished executable! Note: This EXE will force a vidtest. For those technical enough to back up their current EXE and copy this one to the right folder, you can test it out for us. It's intended to be compatible with the current EXE and offers a few new features and improvements. Pending the test results, these changes will become available as a regular update. http://files.novalogic.com/JOTR/JointOps.exe This EXE is testing... Improved Squad Tag Display Sorting by Squad Tags at end of game stats New Server Sync code to reduces yanks and glitches Some enhanced moderator features Overall Optimizations New DM, KOTH top player HUD display 800x600 large map fix New Resolutions 1440x900 & 1920x1200 & 1680x1050 Aspect Ratio correction on sights for wide screen Notes: If you have any issues moving, delete PLAYER.SAV file.

This happens both in LAN and Novaworld, as I also saw this in the Hardmaps ESC server. Also I noticed some new wac commands being included: ptext, pconsol, pwave, onptick and auto.

| Registered Member #1336 Joined: Tue Jul 25 2006Location: Netherlands (Rotterdam) Posts: 267 | It seems that moving to the side has been changed, rather then moving only a tiny bit when you press A or D, you now take a full step. This makes it very hard to look around a corner, as taking a full step might expose your full body making you an easy target for the rebels. Died quite a lot already cause of that since the update.

I think Nova will force the BETA test to get the new Squad functionality working, the ppls paying for it. I was suprised that so many ppl paying for Gold membership, but thats a fact. If someone could contact the programmers of AMBO and get the original code i could have a look and may create an update for. Its made in VB6 and i am quite good in it. | ||

| Registered Member #1336 Joined: Tue Jul 25 2006Location: Netherlands (Rotterdam) Posts: 267 | A new patch, 1.7.0.7, is out not on novaworld2 forum. Will go and test it now to see if the problems of the previous patch are fixed now. Ok played 1 map with it in TR2 server. Side step problem has been fixed, however wac scripting is messed up, getting text messages like "loktone.wav" rather then that it plays the wave file, getting text messaged with "0" behind it like "visit hardmaps.com 0" while text messages that do need a number after it appear like "Number of patrol boats left:". So it seems text, text# and wave wac scripts are mixed up in this patch. [ Edited Fri Feb 20 2009 ] | ||
