---QUOTATION---
[i]Otherwise, I'll have a new update in a day or so. It will not require
starting a new game if you are already running on 1.02.[/i]
Aww, again? I just partially synced to 1.02 (I have yet to decompile your all.spawn to merge it) and already you've got a new update in the works. *whines*
---END QUOTATION---
The only real change that matters is the news_manager.script fix. Here's the diff for the all.spawn stuff. Edit: Since silverpower got the info, I removed it to reduce clutter; it is available upon request for others, but the newer files will include it.
I'll be including a diff file or two in future releases. Also, the Dark Valley stuff will change; even though no more money is taken, the scene repeats and it shouldn't. |

Wow, Fatrap! That's great news! Thanks for going through the trouble to research the find and report the fix. You rock! Even without the alcohol.  
That's one more item I can scratch off the list. 
If anyone else has something that bugs them or reasonable requests that don't change the gameplay, the sooner you post them, the faster they can be addressed...
Otherwise, I'll have a new update in a day or so. It will not require starting a new game if you are already running on 1.02. |

Decane, open up gamedata\config\misc\script_sound.ltx in a text editor and change the bar_dolg_leader entry's 0 to 1 in the [state_rnd] section at the top of the file. Look at the bar_general and bar_dolg entries as examples of what to do.
I can't test this right now (thunderstorms in the area make for power glitches and outages, and I don't have a UPS on the game PC), but I'm pretty sure this is all you need to do to silence General Voronin.
You can see from that section that you can also quiet Petrenko, and you can look through the rest of the file for other sound sources you find irritating, and silence them the same way. |

Decane! "Still alive? That's great." Thanks for looking at the mod.
>> Assumptions: I have used all files in ZRP except for the text files - their absence may constitute some of the bugs I have found below. If that is the case, ignore them.
Yes, the enhanced functionality has new text entries to support it.
>> * The green "Get inside Lab X16" marker is still present after completing the corresponding mission.
The ZRP_readme.txt says this: "New: Fewer location markers remain after quest completion. This may require loading a game, saving, then loading the saved game. Let me know on others." That one should go away, after you complete the X16 task.
Eventually I'll fix it in the right place instead of using a workaround. There are probably still others, so please keep reporting these.
>> * The "Find the entrance to the control bunker" message box is bound to two icons in the Red Forest, even though it should only be bound to the one to the right of the other one. The left one should read "Reach the antennae" or something similar.
I didn't consider that one to be wrong; I thought that maybe the game was saying "this is uncharted territory". I may have been giving the game more credit that it deserves...
>> * There is some misalignment going on in the PDA - you'd better see the screenie attached:
Ah, that is by design. I moved the bar with the links on purpose, to reduce mouse movement; it is so stupid to a) force the user to click low on the screen, then click high, and b) make the mouse move so slowly. We may need a graphics artist to fix it. (Ceano?)
>> * Uuh, this is one of the bugs I figured is probably due to the absence of those text files, but I better report it anyway, in case it's not. "tm_seek_job_never"...
That's one of the added entries. It supports the ability to say that you want to skip that task (for a day, anyway), in order to get to a task that you want to do. If you move the associated text entry over after a file compare, you'll be okay.
>> * General Voronin constantly repears "What are you here?" at the Duty base - it's at least as annoying as the bouncer's "Come in!" -line.
Not to me. I mentioned the ones I had done and asked for feedback, but didn't get any, so that wasn't changed. You can edit the associated text file to disable Voronin's chatter; I'll track it down for you.
Ideally, he should say it once, or say it maybe 20% of the time. I'm still working on some of this...
>> * The inventory grid is smaller, but the stash grid remains the same size, meaning that scrolling has not been inhibited.
That was a choice I made based on my experience. Stashes with a lot of stuff in them cause lag when you come within switch distance, so I'd sell stuff or use a permabody. I'll make the right-hand grid smaller, too.
>> * In the main menu... Well, maybe you should just take a look at the screenie. Again, this bug is probably due to the absence of a text file.
Another added feature, requiring another text entry in the XML files. "Put the spark plug wires back on, and it will run better."
>> Beyond all of that - great work! 
Thanks! And thanks for the feedback. I've already mentioned in this thread that we probably need to discuss merging our work. |

Okay, I've uploaded version 1.02 of the Zone Reclamation Project mod. Same link as before, about 1.7 MB:
[link]http://www.metacognix.com/files/stlkrsoc/ZoneReclamationProject.zip[/link]
Changes in the 1.02 ZRP release:
Quick level named save with hotkey pair (ESC, S). Now you have no excuse for not saving your game.
Fixed an occasional crash when taking the documents from Ghost. The game gives you credit for doing so when you search Ghost, and then again when you actually take the documents, and the news manager would attempt to output a non-existent objective. This was sometimes just garbage, and sometimes even a CTD.
Made the gameplay character files optional. The flashlights-in-the-floor fix didn't work; the disconnected lights belong to the flashlights the NPCs have in their inventory but are not currently using.
Included debug code for modders as a template for their own changes. Press ESC followed by TAB to toggle rs_stats, and press ESC followed by D to toggle the on-screen data in the upper right. Adjust it for your own needs.
The beam of the optional ZRP flashlight has a longer reach.
Fox won't immediately go into alert mode after you heal him.
Skull's quest to kill the sniper will now fail if Skull is killed first.
Fewer location markers remain after quest completion. This may require loading a game, saving, then loading the saved game. Let me know on others.
Slightly reduced "Synchronizing..." overhead.
Game Bug fixes in all.spawn (requires new game):
Removed teleport at end of Pripyat stadium cutscene; you no longer immediately change levels to Chernobyl NPP after the stadium cutscene.
Fixed crouching-causes-level-change near guard tower in northeast corner of military base in southwest Agroprom.
Fixed return from Dark Valley to Garbage; no more prompt to return to DV.
Removed helicopter noise from Yantar level after scripted attack on zombies. |
