Die Jungs vom Modding-Portal W3D Hub, welche die alten Westwood Engine Technologien analysieren optimieren und teilweise nachbauen haben mit dem Scriptpack 4.7 nun ein neues Update ihres Communitypatches für C&C Renegade veröffentlicht. Anbei die Patchnotes:

I would like to thank Jerad Gray, Dghelneshi, Moonsense715 , Neijwiert and dblaney for their contributions to 4.7 (If I missed anyone else who contributed to 4.7, sorry)

Changes made since 4.6 update 9:

Various bug fixes.

Added EnableVis TT.ini keyword to enable or disable vis.

Add new engine call Find_All_Vehicles_By_Distance that will find all of the vehicles in a level sorted by how far away they are from a given position.

Change various sound creation engine calls so they return an int which can then be passed to Commands->Stop_Sound to stop the sound. Works over the network. There is also Stop_Sound_Player and Stop_Sound_Team.

Add new engine call Enable_Spawners_By_Name to enable/disable all spawners on the map given a preset name.

Add new engine calls Say_Dynamic_Dialogue, Say_Dynamic_Dialogue_Team and Say_Dynamic_Dialogue_Player to allow you to trigger the dialogue system (complete with face movements) over the network.

Commands->Enable_Letterbox now works over the network to enable the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen (as used in some single player missions for in-game cutscenes). There is also Enable_Letterbox_Player for a per-player version.

New engine calls Set_Max_Health_Without_Healing and Set_Max_Shield_Strength_Without_Healing that set the max health/shield but do not change the current health/shield.

Fix a typo preventing the Create_Explosion function in cinematic text scripts from working.

Bots/AI now correctly handle gravity-affected/lobbed projectiles.

Fixed a crash if your GPU has a name longer than 128 characters.

New physics class DynamicProjectorPhysClass which is the same as DynamicAnimPhysClass except its got projector settings like StaticAnimPhysClass.

Fix an issue with the scripts M00_Play_Sound and JFW_Play_Sound that caused them to constantly spam sounds.

Fix so that if the AI code is targeting a soldier and that soldier is in a vehicle, it will use the vehicle as a target instead of the soldier (this was causing issues in cases where the soldier’s actual location was outside the pathfind grid)

Fix an issue with tracked vehicle bots driving backwards.

Add new versions of Get_Team_Cost and Get_Cost engine calls that take a preset ID instead of a preset name.

Fix an issue with choosing the sound file to use with a sound preset.

Fix a bug in SysTimeClass::Get

Add new engine calls Set_Subobject_Animation and Set_Subobject_Animation_Player to set an animation on a subobject of another object.

Fix a bug in LineSegClass::Set

Add TimeScale console command. Allows you to fast forward and run the game in slow-mo. It automatically syncs to clients. Scripts can also set the time scale with the Set_Time_Scale engine call and there is also a TimeScale tt.ini keyword.

Fixes to animations for text cinematic scripts.

Removed the ability to use weapon scopes on ladders (allowed you to aim and shoot anywhere, even though your character was facing forward with gun up in the air).

Add new engine call Write_File_Async that will write to a file without blocking waiting for the write to complete.

Doors that allow vehicles to open them will open for AI soldiers as they don’t have portals generated in pathfind.

Added a ‚C EYES‘ bone which can override the line of sight from the ‚C HEAD‘ bone in case the head bone is not where you need the eyes to be.

Jump landing animations now use unused stock Renegade landing animations, this will reduce the amount of times players shoot the ground at end of jump (which in turn will improve server synchronization).

Fixed a bug that caused soldier bot weapon tilt to go to extreme up, extreme down, or middle; it now smoothly moves between them.

Fixed bugs causing AI that operate vehicles not facing the turret the correct direction on-line.

Improvements to lighting code. To enable new lighting where intensity affects dynamic object put NewLighting=true in your tt.ini under the general section. To enable the new specular lighting feature put AllowSpecular=true in your tt.ini under the general section. Its strongly recommended that NewLighting be enabled when using specular.

Restored the smooth harvester credit dump that was seen in stock Renegade, this was broken if the server was running more than 30 FPS and was removed in 4.x for bandwidth issues. It has now been re-added:

Single player skirmish displays the default (but fixed) dump.
LAN now dumps at a rate of 10 times a second.
Online now dumps at a rate of 5 times a second, but can be configured with the server.ini setting of HarvesterDumpRatePerSecond, this setting has a few alt modes:
If 0 it works as it did 4.x – 4.6 (credits stop flowing until dump finishes)
If -1 it will basically send all the updates possible, making a nice smooth, if not bandwidth intensive update to the player
If > 0 it will update that many times a second.

Per map tt.ini files will now only update data loaded from tt.ini, per map will no longer completely replace server tt.ini settings.

Add LinearImpulseScale and AngularImpulseScale tt.ini entries. This allows you to scale the amount of impulse applied when vehicles collide.

Regenerate pathfinding on all the stock multiplayer maps so the bots created by Moonsense715 can function properly on those maps (fixes issues with doors and with pathfinding around nod turrets)

Fix vis glitches on the single player mission „Evolution of Evil“.

Fix glitches with some looping wind sounds so they loop properly.

 

If you are running 4.6 Update 9 (or any earlier version) you will be automatically updated to 4.7. Due to some changes (mostly the fixes to the maps), the update will run the scripts installer again. Just select the appropriate options and it will install.

 

People wanting a full installer (to install from scratch or to do a full reinstall), a server download or a tools download can find them on the Tiberian Technologies website (www.tiberiantechnologies.org) in the downloads section. Appropriate source code for 4.7 as well as the source files for the map fixes in 4.7 can also be found on the site.

 

People who wish to use the excellent AI bots created by Moonsense715 on their server just need to use the botcount console command to set the number of bots they want (and optionally which team they want the bots on). Set to 0 to turn bots off completly.

 

These tutorials https://w3dhub.com/forum/topic/416719-ai-bots-advanced-1/ and https://w3dhub.com/forum/topic/416724-ai-bots-advanced-2/ give details on how to customize maps and add more fleshed out support for AI bots to those maps beyond the support you get if you just turn bots on.
