FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT
A new update for Joint Operations is now available. To update the game, please use the in-game update wizard.
This update addresses several known issues, including Co-Op mode and some connectivity problems experienced by a few people.
This update also includes the Stand Alone Server option, and Remote Access Tools (RAT) for managing servers remotely.
More information on this can be found in the readme file accompanying the update.
The single file version of this update will be available from www.novalogic.com shortly.
THE SECOND EMAIL
Here is some additional information on the new features and fixes implemented in the Update.
New Features:
* Goals now transmit in Co-Op mode. Hit your Goals key to see them (defaults to G)
* Users can now double click the NW menu to join a game, instead of having to click “Join”.
* Added a death animation when users hit CTRL+R.
* Changed the player’s square color while attached to vehicle. (Now has a white “X” on it)
* Added a new large map to the “M” key.
* Added in files that did not ship with the game that can be used for user created maps, in anticipation of the mission editor being released in the near future.
* Added a “distance to” in meters on the outside of the spin map for command points off the spin map.
* Added a command line command to allow the users to host without running the system test. Add a “/serveonly” to the end of the “Target” window in the Joint Ops shortcut to enable a serve only build.
Fixes:
* Waypoints now work correctly in Co-Op. They now auto-advance when users get within the waypoint area.
* Medic revives now work in Co-Op.
* Got letters of enemy command points to display on respawn screen
