Aftermath 1.7 is now finally available at ModDB. This release has had a few struggles in coming together but it now ready for the public. With many additions to the mod since the Public Beta release, we have now put in a new game mode being Historical Missions (will change to Historical for the 1.9 release). Our historicals are teh main feature of the 1.7 release, our two scripters (Gamemaster and Skeeter) have been working hard on them to give each one a sense of depth and involvement unlike any other mod has been able to achieve.
Also apart from the Historical Missions mode, there have been quite a few texture improvements ranging from glow corrections on the Constitution Refit to corrected buzzards on several ships. There are also many new registries that are tied into the Historicals too.
Below is a list of changes we have made for the 1.7 release.
