UP3 RC4 Patch Pack 107
« on: May 06, 2015, 08:54:40 AM »

Dear all,

This patch Pack has been superseded by the
Patch Pack 200 series
which can be found here:

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,51747.0.html

This Thread only remains for reference...


Hi Folks, hi dearest UP3 "Rebels" :D

After having released a couple of hotfixes resolving several bugs of UP3 RC4, we decided to switch from the "multiple hotfixes" approach to an "ever updated patch pack" one.
Here you will find all of our hotfixes and patches bundled in one pack together.
We'll try to keep this updated as the patches are being developed further.

Please find the current UP3 RC4 Patch Pack release here:

UP3 RC4 Patch Pack 107


Feature Enhancements (also see screenshots below)
  • Replication of aircraft control surfaces movement over the net and through NTRK recordings
  • Replication of pilot head movement over the net and through NTRK recordings
  • Animated AI pilot heads, according to pilot's task (watch wing leader, watch enemy etc.)
  • Screenshots taken in native code, much faster than before (see Note ² for Details)
  • "Stabs4All" included, can be activated through conf.ini (see Note ³ for Details)
  • New DiffFM included, capable of reading different FM file versions, less intrusive
  • I-16 Planes can hook to TB-3 SPB bombers in flight.
    Hook Parameters on Ground: Distance to hook point max. 5m
    Hook Parameters in Air: Distance to hook point max. 15m, speed difference max. 30km/h, flight vector difference max. 25 degrees
  • G4M-2 and Ohka flying bomb can be hooked to each other on ground now (max. distance to hook point: 50m)
  • Ju-88 Mistel and 109/190 fighter aircraft can be hooked to each other on ground now (max. distance to hook point: 50m) (needs further testing)
  • Torpedo drop parameters shown in command menu (default: Tab key)
  • Torpedo water impact values shown in HUD log on impact
  • Implemented "smooth" limits for torpedo drop parameters.
    When the drop limits (entry speed, impact angle) are exceeded, the torpedo doesn't break immediately, but with a probability according to the proportion of the exceedance vs. the original limits
  • WYSIWYG:
    - New "smooth" Torpedo Engagement Limits,
    - Random Bomb, Rocket, Ordnance drop spread,
    - bouncing bombs on water (skip-bombing),
    - Detonation Delay (Bomb fuze) settings and
    - Random Explosion Radii get replicated over the net, so that everyone sees what you see (and your NTRK playbacks always look the same like original as well)
  • AI Gunners are slightly better again when being on Veteran or Ace level
  • Enhanced Cheater protection
  • Flak Burst Flash Light Effects by SAS~Skylla
  • PA_Jeronimo improved engine cowling for ME-262V3
  • New custom Me-262V3 skins by bomberkiller

Installation:
  • Run JSGME.exe from your UP3 RC4 game folder and disable any of the following previously installed mods(packs), if applicable:
        * Any old Hotfix Pack (see Note ¹ below)
        * Any old Patch Pack (e.g. "#UP#_Patch_Pack_106_v3")
        * UP3 RC4 without obfuscation ("#UP#_Unobfuscated_MDS_for_UP3"), because this is integrated in this patch pack already
  • Check your enabled JSGME Mods, now there should only be:
        * #UP#_Enable_UP.3.0
        * Additional JSGME Mods not related to Fixes, Patches, unobfuscated UP etc.
  • Extract this Hotfix Pack to your UP3 RC4 game folder
  • Run jsgme.exe and activate this mod ("#UP#_Patch_Pack_107")

¹ Deactivation / Deinstallation of previously installed Hotfixes and/or Hotfix Packs:
Previously installed Hotfixes and Hotfix Packs have to be deactivated from within JSGME.
The Hotfix Packs appear like this in JSGME, watch out for them and deactivate them if they appear to be activated:
  • #UP#_Hotfix_Pack_v1.00
  • #UP#_Hotfix_Pack_v1.01

The Hotfixes appear like this in JSGME, watch out for them and deactivate them if they appear to be activated:
  • #UP#_Early_109_Hotfix_for_UP3
  • #UP#_Jet_Booster_Hotfix_for_UP3
  • #UP#_Ju87C_Hotfix_for_UP3
  • #UP#_SM.79_and_Cant_Z.1007_Gunner_Hotfix_for_UP3
  • #UP#_Sniper_Gunner_Hotfix_for_UP3

The Bf 109 G14 Hotfix installs directly into the #UP# folder, please remove or deactivate that folder:
  • UP3 Bf 109G-14 Hotfix

IMPORTANT:
  • If you have PA_Jeronimo's Engine Cowling Mod installed in your game, please make sure to Rename the folder
      3do/plane/Me-262V-3
    inside that mod folder (e.g. the path in your game might be like "#UP#\Fixed cowling engine & props\3do\plane\Me-262V-3") to
      3do/plane/-Me-262V-3
    or simply remove the "Me-262V-3" of it.
    If you don't do so, your engines will die on ground start.

  • Me-262V3 flight model fixed (*)
  • Me-262V3 muzzles, cannon bulges, nose gear door seams, gun camera, shell and cartridge exhaust bays removed

Code: [Select]
(*) Me-262V3 flight model:
    Like in real life, you have to tap the brakes in order to get the 262V3 off the ground.
    Let the plane accelerate to 180km/h, tap the brakes until the tail comes up and you will soon get airborne automatically.
    Remember to move the throttle gently below 6000rpm.
    VERY GENTLY!
    This plane is equipped with very early stages of the Jumo 004 jet engines which are still under development.
    The specified spool up time from idle to full throttle is ==>> 40 Seconds <<==
    This means that e.g. when using keyboard for throttle, you're allowed to increase throttle by one step (=5%) every 2 seconds only !!
    You might be lucky and manage to spool up within half of that time (20 seconds) but we cannot guarantee that the engines will survive it.
    If you spool up any faster, your engines will go up in flames, mark these words!
    The same applies when you throttle back: GENTLY!
    You can do it quicker than throttling up, actually about twice as fast, but you still have to do it GENTLY once you fall below 6000rpm.
    That much for the bad news about the engines, the good news is that above 6000rpm you can move the throttle as quick as you like.
    Watch your RPMs!
   
    Note: * Trim setting for ground start is "full up".
            It will be applied automatically on ground start, however if you have a joystick axis attached for elevator trim,
            remember to trim up all the way when you start on ground, otherwise you risk to nose over when you tap the brakes.
          * Don't let the plane accelerate beyond 200 km/h without lifting the tail.
            Otherwise eventually the wings might lift the plane into the air (especially with low fuel load),
            but you have no elevator authority yet since they're still wing alee: -> Crash.
          * Don't tap the brakes too soon when you try to lift the tail.
            If you do so below ~160km/h, the tail will come up, but since you don't have sufficient elevator authority yet, your plane will nose over.
   
    ATTENTION: If you have installed PA_Jeronimo's Engine Cowling Mod, please deactivate the Me-262V-3 folder inside of that mod, otherwise
               Your engine will get damage once started on ground, see deactivation details above.

Additionally implemented Debugging Switches:
You can adjust log.lst debugging by setting the following values in the conf.ini [Mods] section:

DEBUG_GEAR=<0-2>           Gear enhanced debugging, default=0, 0=disable, 1=enable, 2=detailed, useful for carrier takeoff mod debugging

² New Screenshot Functionality:
Screenshots are now taken from native code, which takes way less time than the old java screenshot methods (less than 1 second compared to 5+ seconds per screenshot).
You can configure the type of screenshots taken (jpg and/or tga) and the image quality (for jpg only).
Screenshot settings are stored in conf.ini, section "[game]":
ScreenshotType = [0/1/2, default=1]
0 = tga only
1 = jpg only
2 = tga and jpg
jpgQuality = [0.0 - 1.0, default = 1.0]
0.0 = lowest, 1.0 = highest

Example (with default values):
Code: [Select]
[game]
ScreenshotType=1
jpgQuality=1.0

Example (tga and jpg):
Code: [Select]
[game]
ScreenshotType=2
jpgQuality=1.0

³ Stabilizers for all Aircraft:
To activate the Stabilizers for all Aircraft ("Stabs4All"), add the following entry to your conf.ini file:

Please note that the patch level display in user stats doesn't work correctly at the moment.
When you have Patch Pack 102 Beta 1 installed, all users will be listed as having the same patch level installed too, regardless their true patch level.

I'm sorry for that glitch, however all other functionality is not affected by this.

*bump*

New Patch Pack 102 Beta 2 released in first post.
This version fixes a bug of Beta 1 where the patch level was not distributed across the net correctly.
I'd like to urge all users who downloaded the previous Beta 1 to update to Beta 2 asap.
Beta 1 netcode is not fully compatible with Beta 2 netcode, your game might throw a couple of exceptions when joining a server running Patch Pack 102 Beta 2 while you are still using Beta 1.

^^Forget that warning about Beta 1, it's all compatible.

New Patch Pack 102 Beta 3 released in first post.
This version improves the interoperability between unpatched, outdated patched and current patch level games.
Updating recommended as always.

Hi guys.  I'm having a problem getting this patch to work with the FoV mod (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,19698.0.html).  If I put the Fov mod in a #UP# folder (as suggested in the installation instructions and as it worked before I activated the beta patch) and activate via jsgme the game crashes.  If I put the FoV mod in the jsgmemods folder and activate it whilst having the beta patch activated I get no change in FoV.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Sanka's FOV changer mod unfortunately touches a couple of basegame classes, therefor it might need an update to become compatible with the latest unobfuscated and patched UP3 pack.
This is unchecked, but you could try two things:

Thanks for the swift reply Mike.  I'll try as you suggest.  Hopefully see you (at a wider than stock Fov) online soon!

If you insist in using Sanka's FOV Changer, try the DBW version of it.
It won't work.
Try this: Delete the class file BC4A3CB2FB0F0B58 and try again.

Well I've successfully installed the #UP#_Unobfuscated_MDS_for_UP3. I downloaded the Patch_Pack_102b3 and enabled it in JGSME and the sim loads up fine. The problem I'm having is when I select the Typhoon, then new skins don't match. This tells me the new 3D model for the Typhoon isn't making it into the game for some reason.  I joined the SAS Hyperlobby server and I'm getting a message that  there is a "new patch 102b3 available" and I'm not getting ANY patch version listed when I am in game on the SAS server.

I don't think the 102b3 patch is loading correctly.  I've downloaded it a few times and I've reinstalled UP3RC4 twice.  I can't seem to get this new patch to work.  There are no error in the log.

Any help would be appreciated.
