Pyro posted more news (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/Forum3/HTML/000073.html) on 1.02. He says they are shooting for next week. It is a pretty complete list of modifications. Be sure to check it out.
-
Wow, once again the list of bug fixes is marvelous!
-
I'm sure the smaller icons will be welcome by many (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I'm looking for that damage model changing...Pyro can you give us some tips and examples about this? (to be aware about some damage we dont know)
All in all,seems a wonderful work...HTC RULEZZ!! keep on the good work! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

WoW! Smaller Icons! Bullets will have a flatter trajectory now?! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) And some people wonder why folks are moving out of thier old sims.
Happy Birthday Bloom!
with squad hilight as orange dots, maybe the rest of us will be hidden by all the orange the Jg2 will be seeing (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Damn. I was getting used to leading my target with gravity the way it was too! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
You all do know that the posts about being hit further out will increase now. I say make it real. I would not want it any other way. I am just say8ng this fix will probably make the long range kill situation some hate even worse.

Extreme, we decided to cancel the vehicles.
Actually, that's in the older news. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

LOL Pyro you shouldn't have added the disclaimer until later!!!
Glad to see you guys are fixing the old problems before adding new bugs errrrr features.

i want to snivel, and happy birthday bloom25
pyro, thanks for the update info

Pyro didn't mean that ground vehicles aren't in 1.02, he meant that all these things on the list are IN ADDITION to what was posted on 3-10.
(At least I sure hope so. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) )

<<<Fixed a bug that was causing gravity to be applied two-fold to bullets.>>>
Does this mean flatter trajectories? The gunnery already seems quite easy as it is, maybe this only applies to certain types of ammo like .30 cal or 30mm?

no panzer iv? no halftrack?

LOL...Great news Pyro! Just when I was beginning to get my lead solution worked out you go and change gravity on me!..hehe. The other thing we are going to have to watch for is the tighter turning planes due to the flap fix (e.g.- P-38 and P-51). Can't wait though! But I'll have too (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif).

I havent found anything wrong with .50s so it must be Cannons that are being changed.
Anyway, everyone knows.. Guys who cant kill with .50s fly Cannons (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

How about some more info on bullet gravity/trajectory changes ?
Will it affect all types or just some ?

jarbo, The tank sight has range markers on it for every 1000 yards. When i was writting the stuff that computes these lines, they weren't matching where the bullets were landing.So after looking for a long time in the new code for what was wrong, I went back and looked at the bullet model and found I was incrementing acceleration with gravity 2 different places.

so what you are saying is the next programmer to have to work on your code is going to have a nightmare? A noodly tangled mess of pc-centric patchwork that some poor programmer has to decipher and ... well... we've seen it in the past, and, alas, yet again.
Yep, tear thru that code and patch 'er up. And whatever you do, make it impossible for a Mac programmer to port it.

Just wondering to myself... what psuedonym we are dealing with here? A large dose of sarcasm mixed with light hostility?
Seriously, how this got turned to a thinly veiled slam is beyond me.... (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)

Wtg macboy, go ahead and destroy any chance of HTC ever wanting to do a port of AH over to the Mac.

Hey HT with this new version will we see increased arena capacity since I don't think a Panzer division banging a feild will be composed of merely 10 15 tanks ,hence going across a feild with roaming fighters and no air support might be a virtual health hazard IMHO(no I'm not).
