Unable to retrieve the URL: ftp://ftp.swbell.net/private/hmason/AH033/AH034T035.EXE


The following error occured:

Should work fine now.  BTW, you can just log into the arena with the old version and have it auto-update.

Except if you changed your gunsite from the default one the patch doesnt work and you need to redownload the whole thing.  That's kinda a difficult task without working links, but I'll try em again if Pyro said they're fixed.

Same prob C.W.

I ve been saving updates in a file, so i reinstalled everything, no joy. I took the gunsight from the new directory and place it in the old one after removing all the sound files I changed, and the different sights i have added, no joy.

Well just finished DL'ing the new ver(.35) again. Gonna try and see if it works.

All better  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I think i just screwed up the destination for the patch after removing the old sights and adding the default sight.

BTW, thanks Batmann, Noskill, Weazel, Werewolf for the new sights  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) Wish i woulda sent one of mine in  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I fixed it and put it that file up on our host.  The file on the ftp site still has this problem so get your update from the auto-updater if you've changed your gunsight.

The lighting seems a bit weird.  The cliffs facing the sun look like there is a spotlight shining on them with some textures brightly lit and others dark.  I believe I'm seeing this only in the latest version.

Koala, ever taken a look at a mountain range with the sun high in the sky.  You get the same effect you're currently seeing in AH... surfaces reflecting sunlight depending on their angle to you.

I think it looks pretty good actually  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Jekyll,

I think the problem I'm seeing is that the light is changing even for surfaces at the same angle, almost as if the light is localized like a spotlight.
