- Ammo for the Ion Crossbow Pistol is now sold by ammo vendors.
- Removed Spirit mods and ammo, Kamikaze Chips.
- Added Dome of York apartment keys (standard, localized, standard clean and localized clean).
- Removed Bone Implants from the rat loot pool.
- Added new Navray waypoints for vendors in both Neocron and Dome of York.
- CopBots and Dome of York security forces now have a special freezing module on their weapons.
- CopBots and Dome of York security forces no longer react to drawn weapons. They do however attack their city's enemies on sight.

- D3D9 driver: added "-precache" command switch to preload and convert all models into a D3D9 friendly format. Without precaching, this is done on the fly as soon as the model is loaded by the client the first time.

edited : first clientstart the precaching will start automaticly.
If you like to redo the precaching process for any reasons, you have to start you client.exe manually (client.exe -precache)

- D3D9 driver: added resource caching to reduce dynamic resource allocations, should reduce memory fragmentation
- D3D9 driver: changed internal texture resolution to 16 bit to reduce memory requirements. A "use high resolution textures" option for highend systems may be provided later.
- D3D9 driver: fixed small rendering artifacts with crosshair & fps display

- Fixed CityCom kicking client to login screen when selecting missions
- Added free memory check and warning message on client startup, the warning appears when free physical memory is below 256 MB, free physical plus virtual memory below 1024 MB, or total memory use above 70% (as reported by Windows).
- Renamed "cheat violation!" message to "kicked by server"
- Added server shutdown countdown, including automatic warning message every minute (every 10 seconds on last minute). If the countdown hits zero, all clients are logged out (get kicked to the login screen).
- Emotes via "/e <keyword>" or "/emote <keyword>" now correctly transmitted to other clients. Emote messages are handled as local messages, regardless of activated chat mode. This means that every player in your local area will see your emote, as long as you're not on his ignore list.
- Fixed crash in "show info" window on some blueprint types
- Changed all ammo types to not researchable (still clonable though)
- Worked on "big lip" problem again
- Fixed hair/beard/weapons not fading away with character when zoning or warping

- Fixed a bunch of HUD bugs.
- Updated the scripts of Hacknet Enemies.

- World changes:
[DOY] Added Content to DoY City Center
Removed exploitable NPC in Doy City Center
Fixed wrong actors in Twilight Guardian HQ
Fixed non working german Epic starting dialog
Fixed not working Paramedic in BlackDragon HQ

[NC] Fixed wrong Resource Supply Manager in ProtoPharm HQ

[EPIC] Added missing NPC "Johnson"
Added missing NPC "Jade"
Added missing "Storage Box" for Fallen Angels Epic

[NPC] Added more Copbots to the Plaza Levels
Copbots and DoY Security Guards are now also reacting on faction association
Fixed Supply Managers. They now only attack enemies and not faction friends anymore

[APARTMENTS] Fixed wrong table actor (appeared as a go guardian). It is possible that items in the cabinets of these apartment types are lost.

[MISSIONS] Added more Hacknet Missions. Please check the Taskmanagers if they work properly and report any problems into the Bug Forum.

[DUNGEONS] Fixed Red Point Exit which led to the Outzone instead to the original exit point
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for I am the baddest mother****** in the valley.

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Good changes overall. Will be nice to finally do those citycom missions (fooling around with a new char) w/out using a custom file.

Return to “Neocron”
