Well (), believe or not but I have 'some' experiences with game development - especially Unreal Engine based games and how hard (or not ...) it is. That said, you don't need the game source to be able modify game behaviour, extend its functionality or implement new features (I'm not talking about native stuff like rendering etc.). All you need is complete Unreal Script source code, good UDE and compiler.

That's exactly what ELiZ did with the SAI, ported the code right over. We have a good compiler and halfway decent editor.

The door is always open NBD

Battletracker does the tracking, it's all the servers because there's a problem with Battletracker, nothing we can do about it. ELiZ already reverted the data back to what it was before the update and it still doesn't work. He's spent a lot of time testing the issue and if it were simple to fix, he would have fixed it.

You're right Dan, it is a resolution issue. At 1920x1080, there is no wrapping.

Find device manager on ur pc, search for display adapters, click on it and it should show you what is your graphic card, then double click it, on top there are labels, click driver, update driver then or go to google by typing ur graphic card model and find update by installing it manually.

To make it easier;

It's either:
Nvidia - http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Scan.aspx?lang=en-us
AMD - http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/auto-detect-tool
or Intel - http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect

Then the question is, edit the original map or create a mAAp Bridge/WC/whatever?

While in-game type in the console "setres 1366x768" and see what happens.

I don't recall the guns sounding all the same. As for changing depending on environment, that's not possible in AA2, that's an engine limitation. AA2's engine was made at a time when companies were thinking about dedicated chips for things like sound cards to offload rendering from the CPU. These days, the engine does most everything on the CPU aside from the graphics. You don't need a dedicated sound card to get good environmental effects.

We can update the sounds but I would hesitate to do so. Various reasons would be animation time. Sure, the gunshots wouldn't matter but reloading sounds & animations would have to be stretched/shortened to fit. I also don't know what kind of dedication the AAPG team has, it doesn't really look like they're going for realism. Back when the devs were making AA2, they had real dedication and recorded sounds very accurately.

Something you may not know is that in the sound industry, not much changes over time. DAC's and ADC's do but microphones, speakers, amplifiers, room dampening equipment and other things haven't changed much. You can get 40 year old equipment that will blow the pants off of anything you could get at Best Buy or any other store. Some of it is just physics and very little of it is improvements in manufacturing accuracy.

Anyway, if people were serious about this, I'd like to see comparisons and a few YouTube videos that demonstrate gunfire sounds at a decent distance (too close and it's distorted by crappy camera microphones).

All the maps are available to server admins... just press F12 and look at the menu next to Tours, scroll to the bottom and there's a bunch of new entries for all the maps.
