BRM version 2.0.8 continues the enhanced trend of BRM and contains the full squad system interface and includes a number of new and exciting features that will add life to your server's gameplay.
The 'classic' BRM style (with a CoD2 style weapon selection menu) is still available and can be enabled with a change to a single dvar. See the squad system documentation for more info.
This release concentrates on fixing some existing bugs and improving a number of minor code issues behind the scenes. Those of you who want some new 'stuff' (whatever that stuff may be) will not be disappointed however.
To create Class loadout configs for the new RO style loadout menus you will need to download the new Squad Builder from the BRM download page.
To enable the RO style class menus, change the value of the bro_squadbased dvar to "2". Please check out the included squadSystem.txt for more documentation about this new feature.
