[h3]CHANGED:[/h3]
● Updated multiplayer API, various network performance improvements.
● Updated AI Pathfinding API.
● Font throughout the UI of the game.
● Small arms now only deal 1 damage to planes.
● Explosion damage model vs infantry and other soft targets. When within injury radius, it will deal a minimum of 1 damage and a maximum of max HP - 1. In previous game versions, the damage inside the injury radius of an explosion was entirely random (from 0 to max HP).
● Normandy Farm map loading wallpapers.
● Unified UI style for unit spawn selection.
● Panzer III E winter camouflage.
● Changed glass material style/look.
● Added mipmaps to many more textures to improve GPU efficiency.
● Corrected import settings on many textures.
● Shadows style.
[h3]FIXED:[/h3]
● Excessive RAM usage (all game's assets were loaded at all times).
● Having negative merit points would allow you to purchase anything that cost merit points.
● Land vehicles exploding every time you got out of them.
● Craters generation would be off sometimes.
● Some vegetation elements were not removed when a crater was spawned (wheat, dry grass, wooden sticks...).
● Potential AI freeze linked to using static weapons.
● Players in spectator mode would appear in the scoreboard.
● Allegedly fixed any UI/flags issues in Frontline.
● Player avatar in the progress menu would be a white square if playing offline.
● Excessively fast scrolling in scrolling areas in the UI.
● Shadows popping when changing quality preset in the settings.
● The new 'voices volume' fixes the fact that voice lines shouted by infantry were too quiet. Turn the volume up and you shall hear them properly now :)
