Madmatt Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 posted November 18, 2005 12:25 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We know you guys have been waiting patiently for news on the patch and the time has come to let the cat out of the bag, or at least give you a glimpse of the kitty. For the last several weeks we have been conducting extensive external and internal testing on the upcoming patch and it looks like it is just about ready for release. The major feature of this first patch is that it fixes the persistent game "freeze" issue that some people have reported. During our stress testing, none of the testers ever encountered a single lockup or freeze and this was from people that had lockups issues in the past. Obviously that will be good news for many of you. The developers have also tweaked the command voice quing playback which means that if you give a command repeated times, for instance TURN LEFT, you will only hear it yelled out a single time even though the AI will carry it out as many times as you issued. Other notable fixes being worked on include the Joystick Y-Axis, Dual Mode tweaks and some other odds and ends. This patch should be released VERY SOON and along with the patch we are going to release a new Demo based on this updated version and it will feature a new demo scenario with more much more action and combat! We still have a lot more in store with this game so stay tuned! Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Hundhammer Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Right, that's very good news! But for most of us, it looks like it's time to blow the dust off the BoF CDs and re-read the manual... ;-} 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 Quick Update on the patch! Right now, the patch I have looks like it is the one that is going to be released. Here is the current list of issues addressed by it: * Fixed lockups/freezes that some people reported * Added configuration program option to reverse joystick Y Axis for gunner and commander view * Added configuration program option to mute external soldier voices * Improved functionality of 'Dual Mode' * Improved text orientation in map mode * Improved playback rate of commands * Various typo corrections If anyone wants the patch right now, I will email it you just like I have offered all along. The official release is scheduled to be literally any day now though and more than likely before the end of the week... Assuming all goes to plan...

Hi Madmatt, you have sayed "not in this first patch", is there a hope for a second Patch? v1.4 that fixes the LAN problems? :eek: That would be really really great from the devs... I hope that this was not the last patch... :cool: ***That would be another 6 months of waiting worth!*** [ December 07, 2005, 05:55 AM: Message edited by: Tanker0815 ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
