Adjustments made for the Spectator- AFK-Mode included in iTEC and nTEC 2.0 ( works without, only so it is complete )

Fixed a bug that caused the PS-Tutorial not to end permanently when stopped ( original game error )

Due to online unlocking for joining with DX9-Client on DX10-Servers - Unfortunately again a Mandatory-Update. Supplementary to the PS-Tutorial, this works only if the game is started and only in game mode PowerStruggle, for the activation you can simply enter in advance in the console "g_PSTutorial_Enabled 1".

UPDATE

CRYSERV - PHOENIX & PHOENIX-BASE  Server Files - Mandatory Update

Patch Notes ( v.1.0.1039.0 )
Phoenix: Fixed a bug that crept into the client-server interface with yesterday's update to version 1.0.1038.0


Patch Notes ( v.1.0.1038.0 )
Phoenix: Added C++ API Function “g_gameRules.game:GenerateMD5FileChecksum( filePath )“
Phoenix: Added C++ API Function “g_gameRules.game:AddImpulse( playerId, direction, impulse, position )“
Phoenix: Revised C++ API Function “g_gameRules.game:SoundEvent( entityId, sound, radius=100, volume=10 )“
Phoenix: Added C++ API Function “player.actor:StopUse( includeVehicles=false )“
Phoenix: Added C++ API Function “player.actor:UsesMountedItem()"
Phoenix: Added C++ API Function “player.actor:IsHeadUnderWater()"
Phoenix: Anticheat-System partially revised
Phoenix: Various minor adjustments and optimizations
Phoenix: C++ API documentation adapted
Phoenix: Version number increased to 1.0.1038

Sound effects only make sense if they extend the game in a meaningful way, with the Lua equivalent you hear the sound on the whole map, so here is another solution. With the extended function it is now possible to play all sounds of the game on the client side with adjustable maximum range and volume, audible for all players of course in their distance corresponding volume within the maximum range. The function automatically detects whether the sound should be static or accompany the player during a movement. The specification of radius and volume are optional, if they are not specified, default values are set.

The function for impulses is also different from the Lua version, the same impulse strength produces the same movement length no matter if the player is in a vehicle or not. The position for the impulse is automatically determined if not specified. It is compatible with the anti-cheat system, so also fly-hack detection.

Unfortunately, since the client-server interface has changed, I have to make a Mandatory Update out of it.

UPDATE


CRYSERV CLIENT  Game Client - Mandatory Update

Patch Notes ( v.2.0.1035.0 )
Added support for nTEC for the configurable and assignable F keys
Added support for nTEC for configuring and using the Crysis 2 Nanosuit Voice
Added support for nTEC for configuring and using FPS and Ping Display
Added support for nTEC for configuring and using Display of Empty Vehicles on the Map and in Radar
PDF documentation revised accordingly


... Regarding the automatic adjustment of LOW SPEC settings
I will add support for the server-side configuration of the LOW-SPEC in the next update, so it will be possible to use the LOW-SPEC on servers where the operators have allowed it, if he didn't, the settings will be automatically set to medium-spec during the connection process as before. I'm thinking about adding an indicator for this on the website, for more transparency.

The reason I do it this way now are the complaints about it from some "purists" :P . I wanted to integrate this customization already in this update, only I lacked the time for it now.
