1.0.6 is Out
Publié : mar. mai 02, 2006 9:23 pm
Our most comprehensive update yet for Allied Force, 1.0.6, is finished and released. Please update using either the bfopsupdate.exe utility in the Battlefield Operations folder or download the "exe" update from the downloads section of our website. The patch -- weighing in at 37MB -- is cumulative, so you do not need to download previous patches. It will install on top of a "vanilla" CD install, or any previously patched version of Allied Force. You will need to uninstall Dr Stop's pit and Tom Waetli's HiTiles before running the update -- then reinstall the pits and terrain. A special thanks to our beta testing team whose input was invaluable. The changelog is detailed below.
Version 1.06 (Patch 5)
======================
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
* Fixed a bug that sometimes caused On-call CAS AI flights to attack targets before attempting to check in with FAC.
* On-call CAS flights now request targets from the FAC after two minutes instead of four if unassigned.
* Fixed TARCAP flights continuing to press on aircraft like An-124 even after it has been identified.
* AI now able to use afterburner power for a short time after Rejoin command is received.
* Mid-air refuelling rewritten. Tanker now maintains correct speed and altitude.
* Many changes to AI refuelling and multiplayer-specific code.
AVIONICS & WEAPONS
* Fixed HSD showing wingmen in Dogfight after they have been destroyed.
* Fixed static ground vehicles not showing up in GM radar mode.
* ALOW and MSLFloor warnings are now played whether the HUD is visible on screen or not.
* Fixed TGP going into POINT lock immediately upon first designation.
* Fixed Com1 and Com2 Volume knobs to work again.
* Fixed TACAN station bearing indicator on HSI to not display bearing if the station can not be received.
* Fixed PL-5E seeker range to be shorter.
* Fixed bug where contacting an airbase other then the landing one was impossible in certain situations.
* Various fixes/improvements to A-A Weapon handling:
o Each Mastermode remembers which weapon type has been selected (AIM-9M/P etc) and will set the weapon again
when the mode is reselected at a later point.
o All A-A Radarmodes are available from all A-A Mastermodes. Dogfight Override mode, for example,
can have RWS as selected radar mode, and Missile Override can use the ACM modes.
o Each Mastermode remembers its gun submode.
o AIM-9M and AIM-9X can be switched properly if in the same loadout.
* The Mastermodes will no longer have the radar turned on when selecting another weapon by either
the Enter key or the OSB buttons. The radar only starts emitting when a mode is selected.
* Fixed gun rounds counter sometimes showing zero when there were still bullets left.
* Fixed bug where a target could not be locked to STT mode in TWS mode when the azimuth scan was set to something
other then 60 degrees.
* Fixed bug where stealthy vehicles like F-117A were not even lockable using IR sensors even at closest ranges.
* Frame-rate improvement to HSD display.
* Fix bug where designating/undesignating with the HSD as SOI and the cursor over a pre-planned threat
did not toggle it's range-ring.
* Fix the new CBU burst altitude value not being shown in the MFD when pressing the decrement burst altitude keystroke.
* When changing target in simplified radar, set padlock target to the new target.
DATA
* Fixed all 05/23 airbase tower voice calls to wrong runway.
* Added many more "Vehicle position points" and "ship points" to airbases, ports, army-base, HARTs etc.
* Fixed position of building at Wonsan airbase type.
* Added R-77M and AGM-65E/K missile types.
* Updated radar data for few aircraft and seekers (F/A-18, F-22, R-77).
* Fixed missing bridge feature on one bridge objective type.
* Lowered Kirov ship damage amounts.
* Updated some 2D weapon ranges.
* Vehicles (ground, aircraft and ships) will fire closer to real-life ranges in 2D now.
* Adjusted weapons positioning on Tornado fuselage racks.
* Added Brimstone and rack back to Typhoon in 2005 and 2010 theaters.
* Fixed rocket pylons so they now show in loadout and in game under wings.
* Changed CBU-97 hardpoint count to be the same as CBU-87. (Standard loadout 4xCBU and two fuel tanks).
* Updated AWACS screen icon symbols for more objects to be shown.
* Removed CAS roles from UH-60L.
* Updated SA-3 so it will now fire more than one missile in the air per volley.
Also adjustments to range being too short and loft angle too high .
* Allow night missions for AH-1, C-130 and few other airlift aircraft.
* Adjusted JSTAR patrol waypoints so they have approximately up to 50nm of ground coverage of enemy side.
* Objective feature value lists prioritized better.
* Removed FA-37 from TE list as it was a testbed only.
* Lower large ammo dump damage value for high-explosive types so two 2000lb bombs can destroy it.
CAMPAIGN / TACTICAL ENGAGEMENT:
* Updated stores for some squadrons in campaigns.
* Some ROK infantry changed to correct unit type in Korean campaign.
* EF/A-18G added to all 2010 campaigns.
* Mission times tasked according to threat/range (fewer deep strikes in first hours of campaign that just abort).
* Changing the takeoff waypoint time sometimes resulted in the flight not getting pilots assigned.
Fixed for single and multiplayer.
* In Tactical Engagement, naval units can now be set as victory conditions and in Campaign they can be a target
now for self-created missions.
* Saving a Tactical Engagement file now resets the "TE won" situation so new successive missions
and victory conditions can be added as an ongoing "mini-campaign".
* Prevent AWACS from setting up waypoints that lead them flying too close to the FLOT.
COCKPIT:
* Fixed RWR position in all three 2D 1600x1200 resolution cockpits in wide-view, one click down.
* Speed up of drawing 2D cockpit views without visable outside view.
* Improved instruments in padlock situational awareness bar.
* Adjusted RWR position in all 3D cockpit views.
* Support for all available resolutions and aspects greater than 800x600. Since 2D cockpit is of 4:3 aspect ratio,
on wide screens there will be black bars on the sides. All pure 3D views and outside views are full screen.
* Fixed fontsize of HUD and DED data in wideview in 1024x768 res 2D cockpit of the MLU.
* Increased down-tilt limit in 3D cockpit so we can see the whole MFD when looking closer.
GENERAL GAMEPLAY:
* Added the ability for emergency braking. In case the Hydraulic B system fails (flameout or damage),
the pilot can still use his brakes for 15 seconds to stop the Jet on the runway.
* If the plane has blown up with a comms window on the screen, ESC will still work to close the window
so the simulation can be exited.
* If Joystick button 0 or 1 is pushed, but no function is assigned to them, do not fire the gun/ pickle weapons.
* Retain controllability of ACMI on/off even when shot down for documentation purposes. Now, ACMI is
not turned off automatically when the plane gets destroyed.
* Fixed bug where a newly created .key file could not be loaded properly without exiting and re-entering the sim.
* Help with frame rates at airbases.

* Reduced on-ground aircraft pitch during braking.
* Complex aircraft code now supports models containing rotatable wheels and swing-wing DOF's.
* In Dogfight mode, colored padlock boxes are back in Realistic padlock setting.
* Fixed shared memory electrical fault bit when on ground and shutting power off.
* Moved labels up so they don't obscure objects.
* Dynamically scale label offset based on object radius and distance.
* Don't show opposite (wrong) tanker lights when in extreme relative position to tanker.
HARDWARE:
* Added power detection for notebooks that warns when battery is low both in 3D and the User Interface.
* Added support for DED display on Logitech G15 keyboard LCD.
* Fix for missing cursor, buttons and lights issues on nVidia graphics devices at resolutions
greater than 1024x768 and FSAA enabled.
MODELS & TEXTURES:
* Fixed texture on flaps of F/A-18D.
* Added texture to F/A-18E.
* Adjust LOD of the building "Hotel" at some airbases so it does not "pop up" visually.
* Fixed many buildings with missing parts (walls, roof, etc).
* Fixed texture issue on Wonsan airbase type, center runway.
* Fixed many fuel tanks not shown textured
(they are used on J-22, F-5E/A, Su-7BK, Su-39, MiG-23, Su-24, Su-25, AMX, Typhoon).

MULTIPLAYER:
* Fixed IR weapons losing lock on ground vehicles when being fired at distances greater 8nm
and moving away from target, especially in Multiplayer.
* Fuel dump is disabled for online dogfights.
* When "No Player Voice" is turned on in the Sound Setup user interface, Flight comms of other human pilots,
for example to AWACS, are still audible.
* Master Arm switch now defaults to SAFE when a player enters an aircraft on the server
(previously it would be SAFE on clients, and ARM on server).
* Aircraft canopy open/close state now correctly shown in a multiplayer environment.
* Make sure the location of the bullseye is the same for all connected sessions.
* ACMI's now record and play back orientation of non-local missiles correctly.
* Connection state fix.
* Clients are now able to order flights to RTB.
* Fixed several issues where deleting flights or a package through the ATO list was not correctly working in Multiplayer.
* Packages containing a flight with a remote human player can not be deleted anymore.
SOUND:
* Fix specific sounds sometimes not being played, like missile launch sound.
* De-hissed some sounds.
* New in-cockpit engine sound.
STABILITY:
* CTD Fixes including dogfight module and dedicated server stability increased.
USER INTERFACE:
* Added a "Clear" button to the key assignment dialog.
* Fixed a bug where only pressing a DirectX Joystick button would clear the keystroke assigned to a function.
* A keystroke and joystick button press at the same time in key assignment dialog are now properly saved.
* Fixed some abbreviation mistakes.
* Fixed E-2 ATO icon so that it is centered.
* Added cockpit switcher to Graphics setup menu.
* Changed color of user interface bullseye view to make it better visible.
* Fixed misaligned Briefing print-out.
* Now sorting some more list-boxes alphabetically.
* Resizing of splash screens to fit full screen.
