Welcome to the alpha Patch 86. This was built and released on November 17, 2015.
Test goals:------------------
Test the auto-updater. Report any anomalies.
Test the VOX system. Go to the "Mission" arena, set the "V" channel to your game ID, and see if it echoes back your voice.
Check the new lighting engine in as many planes (cockpits and external), using different time settings in the arena (offline best for this). Report (images welcome) any issues.
If possible with multiple people testing the voice setting to see if you can hear more then one person speak at a time.
Corrections/Updates:---------------------------
Action: Fixed the issue with the europe terrain set causing AvA not to function.
Action: Adjusted tree lighting slightly darker.
Action: Clutter is now set to the same brightness as the terrain.
Action: There is a debug command you can use for testing: .sliders
It will open a slider panel on the clip board that you can adjust the brightness of shapes/terrain and trees.
Note:
This is only for testing to see what settings you like best. Please post the numbers if you like something different. Also state if you are using post lighting effects or not.
1.0 Is what it used to be on all sliders. Trees have been moved from 2.0 to 1.5 on this patch as default.Additional Information:
---------------------------
We are no longer providing a direct link to the patch file. We want everyone to use the auto-updater and if any anomalies show up, please report them.Use the ".psave filename" command to save your position in the terrain/world. If you do not provide a file name, then file will be saved as "cmepos.txt" in the "settings" folder. Thank you!
State of the Dev Cave!-----
We have a few items left for us to convert / rewrite to the new system.
1) Road/ train system.
Thanks for the help with the creation of AH3.
