Greetings all you Navy Seals Fans,
This update is to inform you all that NS 1.91 will be released on 02/21/2004 with more information to come as we get closer to the actual release date. This release has many bugs fixes from the current 1.9 build, new sound effects, and a new map called ns_frenzy.
Bug Fixes
* removed flashbug at assault fields
* removed flashbug at fences
* removed anti-flashbang bug
* removed ghostsounds
* removed the server death-spamming a client
* removed delayed leg damage
* removed VIP crash bug (if no VIP can be spawned, the opposing team will win)
* fixed the radiusdamage (e.g. grenades)
* fixed VIP selection (a teamkiller which was not forgiven will not be the VIP)
* fixed the spawn-position of tracers
* fixed the player being able to roll a grenade / flashbang further than throwing it
* fixed the spontaneous weapon change bug
* fixed XP distribution lag (not 100%, but its really hard to get 999)
* fixed XP distribution synchronization problems
* fixed the nades bouncing from the skybox
* fixed level-scanning (removed the Enemy: blabla message)
* fixed weapon-bug when changing teams.
* better flashbangs with a new effect which makes the flashbang more realistic
* better weapon handling, especially for pdw, m249, remington 870 and mossberg 590
* more realistic grenades
* better sound effects
* background music in the main menu
* new smokegrenade code
* round robin selection of VIP player or BOMB carrier
* moving scoped now lowers your speed
* no crosshair for knifes and c4
* 2 different kinds of crosshairs, the default one is like the current 1.9 crosshair,
while the other one fades away when your firing will be totally inaccurate
* fixed a bug when throwing grenades
* fixed headshot boxes
* added a concussion effect to the flashbang
(A flashbang going off behind you will no longer blind you)
* removed the ability to use the voting system to give hints to players
* XP sytem: every knifekill gives one XP now ;)
* worked on weapon balance to make every weapon be unique and usefull
* reworked damage inflicted to a player if he's wearing kevlar or helmet:
- While wearing a helmet, only sniper-rifles can produce headshots
- helmets no longer cover the face
- faceshots are possible now
- PDW bullets do more damage when penetrating kevlar vests
