DELTA FORCE® - BLACK HAWK DOWN™ COMMUNITY UPDATE


We are pleased to announce that two very important events for the community will be taking place next week.

Firstly, the new update for DF - BHD is in final QA and will go live on Monday October 13th, 2003 at 10a.m. PST. The update will be approximately 20 Megs in size and adds or addresses issues with a number of features including:

Added up to 50 player hosting capability for consumers.

The “Auto Range” feature in sniper rifles and grenade launchers is now a server setting.

Added mod support for users. Players will be able to run mods thru NovaWorld.

Removed the glowing white outline of all claymores.

Reduced the number of active claymores per person from 8 to 2.
This has been done to remove the 'Field of Claymores' issue.

Helicopter rotor blades will now kill your character in multiplayer should you get too close.

We have removed the cartwheel animation from the emote list due to glitch exploitation. This has been replaced with a new emote.

The number of active smoke grenades has been reduced to 3, to clear up slowing the framerate on certain machines.

We have fixed the crashing ibrowse issue some users have experienced.

Fixed rapid firing issues for certain sniper rifles and shotguns.

Fixed the quick reload of machine guns glitch.

We have also added a performance indicator to NovaWorld that will now give consumers a clearer indication of the connection quality of games over NovaWorld. This indicator has four lights (Green, Yellow, Red and Gray) and works like this:

Green light means the server is running in good condition.

Yellow light means a moderate server with average to poor ping times etc.

Red light means very poor game experience due to speeds, pings etc.

Gray light means no information is available for that server.


Finally, we are very pleased to announce that Wednesday October 15th, 2003 will see the release of the full editing tools for Delta Force - Black Hawk Down. These tools come with full documentation and include a full mission editor, object builder and terrain creator. More details on the tools will be released early next week

Cheers,
Marcus

That is still 50 laying around from one team on a 50 player server.lol

:D

better than 400

thats very true can you imagine that many going off all at once.BooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooom.

lol, those peeps at Novalogic are a cruel bunch :D
Getting half the community pissed at them, while they knew they were making a big-ass patch.

So now every thinks :eek: wtf... lol
That's very good news....

Maybe it'll spark my interest in playing again. (maybe :P)

uh they still did not fix anything...they added more glitches and more people to make glitches and cheats

Auto Range: feature in grenade launchers? man that sound so sweet. i never had one on my grenade launchers in real life in the US-Army Infantry, always had to use my eyeball to try to hit my targets, was aiming at. god man the world is changing to fast tech-world is really moving. lol

I dont theres any such thing chief.

Gmax
 

I have posted this at DFA.
But what do you think the chances are that the editing tools will need GMax as the Delta Force Game is selectable in the voting system at GMax.

To me it would make a lot of sense as GMax is free to anyone.

A gmax-ready game means that the game developer has decided to create a gmax game pack that you can use to create or edit game content. If your game is gmax-ready, you are probably building your own characters, buildings, automobiles, or levels and customizing your game.

You cant edit your post in the news so I added this. :)

what is this update called

cool

update has been delayed apparently
