With this update we roll back the experimental weapon damage changes introduced in v1.4.8.0. We decided this after an internal vote supported by the community's feedback. Next to this there are some other changes and fixes. One of them being a overhaul of the vehicle mounted smoke counter measures. You can read the details below.

For those who didn't see the message with v1.4.12.0:
Important, due to an update to the mumble client, make sure you have Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 installed! Download it here. This is also for those who get the 'Mumble_app.dll error -3' error. You need the vc_redist.x86.exe even if you have x64 system.

THANK YOU

Nice work guys keep it up but turn on the client update you guys are awesome GG

Inb4 damage revert is only placebo.

Nice! I like the !givelead command, however !rp makes no sense.

As for the weapon damage reversal, i got used to the new one. But it's good to have op snipers, shotguns and pistols back.

what makes no sense is that everybody reports "SwitchBladeUK" when they ask to switch teams, or part of their message gets cut because a result is found.

"cantpicknameiwant is reported, i get switched pls???"

Now if we can get Rhino's RPG-7 warheads in, then we would have made pr truly great again.

Aaah, now I get it. The goblin magic behind the curtains.


Thanks for churning out so many great updates. Very impressed!

Quality stuff. Thanks for the update <3

(I haven't been around as I need a new PC).

Keep up the good work!

Cheers, Murkey.

Great job guys!!!

Fix AA system and some minor asset balance on various maps and PR is perfect. -> only good feedback

sweet update (weapon damage revert).

loving to see the frag launcher on french vehicles.

looking forward to see the new smoke launcher handling.

!r and !rp makes sense in this constellation.
I was used to do a
!r ... message
With the "..." to avoid anyone being tagged.

Well. If the admin is sane enough, he will understand.

It makes it unnecesarily confusing for players and i'm sure that most people will just misunderstand purpose of both !r and !rp.
