The 6th Internal Release for ChaosUT2: Evolution is currently being tested, and it's going very well. Along with many, many tweaks and fixes, this IR brings the model for our new rail gun, the ERDW, into the game. It does still need finished up with some skin and animation work, but it's in!
Lot's of tweaks and fixes went into IR6 as well. The way we handle some effects, for example. Like the Flash Grenades, which are working great in this version, the main bugs from earlier IR's are now gone.
And the effect is impressive, if you are looking right at the flash you WILL be blinded. But..., it also has varying degrees of 'blinding', for when you were looking away, or if it's not so close to you, and so on. Plus it fades out real nice.
Just an example of how some things that were 'in' already, are still getting tweaked. Soon as we have our models finished up, we'll be hitting the streets very quickly after that.
