******* NOTE: On the Desura page, please be sure to download 'Full Tactical-Expansion V1.1 Installer", as this will eliminate the Desura installation issues. ******* This mod enhances the things that make Crysis great, and adds a number of new things. New blood effects, bullet drop and penetration, 22 new ammo types, and more weapon changes than I could list here. Armored vehicle have different ammo types. The US Tank gets SABOT, HEAT, and Canister shells. The NK Tank gets HEAT, SABOT, and AT-11 Missiles. The APC's get HEI-T (normal) shells and Canister shells for the cannon, and the TOW missiles are now player guided. Weapons are more versatile, for example the Gauss Rifle can destroy any vehicle and can shoot through concrete walls. The SCAR with all the different attachments and 40mm grenade types can be used in any situation. Also included are Fortran's Barrett M107, and Rad15's advanced AI, used with permission of the respective creators.
A look at the M583A4 "Solar Flare MK4" Illumination Grenade, an upcoming addition to the next version of this mod. Lights up everything within ~300 meters. Due to current limitations, the light does not cast shadows.

Oh man that's a shame it can't :( it would be friggin sick to see on hte night maps how the shadows move as you're running through the brush, and the enemy are running aroud looking for the source of the flare
I think so too. =]
Oh very cool.
Do they cast global illumination light, or directional light?
--As in, if you pop one next to a wall, will one side of the wall be light, and the other dark, or will it illuminate both sides with light?
They cast fill lights, which is the only kind of light I can attach to a projectile right now (via "Trail" in the XML and the particle editor. Once the Crymod forums go back online I'll ask a coder if it would be possible to attach a normal light.
Yeah, do you know what's up with Crymod?
Software upgrades, and judging by the amount of time it's been down, they're quite extensive.
Yeh Ive just gotten into modding Crysis (well, making my own stuff in sandbox 2) and it isnt really a good time to start with the forums being down :P
The crymod wiki is still up. Must be on a separate server. Wiki.crymod.com
We've got a statement from Cevat, and the site won't be back until the 29th. I've got a feeling we won't recognize it when it's back.
