Change Log Beta 4 - Beta 5:
- Increased German reinforcements to 340 (previously 240).
- Increased Russian reinforcements to 200 (previously 180).
- Reduced German spawn times from 15 to 10 seconds.
- Reduced Russian spawn times from 25 to 15 seconds.
- Removed a few small parts of the map to enhance the flow of the fighting.
- Reduced the initial Russian spawn lifetime by 15 seconds (1:00 to 0:45)
- Reduced the number of destroyable barricades from 8 to 3. This should help the flow of the map, bot paths, TKs from satchels, tanks getting stuck, and performance.
- Moved an artillery spot that could damage/destroy the last Russian KV spawn.
- Fixed/improved a few resting heights.
- Deleted/Moved quite a few objects to make moving around easier.
- Added an extra entrance/exit to the sewers by the bridge.
- Fixed some lighting issues.
- Moved the Russian Command Bunker spawnpoint.
- Moved some text in the Axis/Allies specific boxes around to help people understand that the tanks are limited.
- Fixed some minor cull distance problems.
- Fixed bullets colliding with the barbed wire on the barricades.
- Fixed some minor terrain issues.
- Added a new access point to the Command Bunker area/sewers from the street.
- Fixed a problem where dead bodies would fall through the stairs in some buildings.
- Added some cover to the 3rd Russian tank spawn.
- Combined more building static meshes to increase performance.
- Modified the Easter Egg so it shuts off 30 seconds after being activated instead of staying up forever.
- Tweaked the bot pathing in a few areas.
- Added a broadcast message that states "Remember: Tanks do not respawn until you capture/lose an objective!" that plays once at the start of each round.
- Changed the RoadPathNode destination for the Axis tankers at the Anti-Tank Position. This was done because Axis bot tankers would often speed off before players had loaded the map and would get the first tanks destroyed.
- Moved numerous artillery spots to non-player accessable areas. They're still there for the ambiance but should kill you a lot less. And as always... you can't get killed by artillery in the capzones!
- Re-added pistols to Russian Commander, Russian and German Snipers, and Russian Machine Gunner.
- Removed binoculars from regular German tanker class.
- Moved the last Russian KV1s spawn back about 10 feet so it is closer to the last Allied tanker spawn.
- Extended the Anichkov Bridge capzone to the sides about 10 feet in either direction.
- Fixed a small glitch where you could get a Hall of Mirrors error (repeating textures rapidly) when looking through tank sights, sniper scope, or binoculars at the top of the Searchlight Building.
- Tweaked a few custom static meshes and textures.
-------------------------------------------
Hopefully this version is more straight-forward for server admins to get up and running on their servers. If not, yell at me until I get it. If this version doesn't have any major problems it will be entered into Phase II of the mapping contest. However, if there are problems I'll attempt to fix them quickly and release Leningrad_Beta5b before January 31st. Good luck to everyone who is entering!
Please continue to give me feedback in this thread. Thanks.
