DCG 4.5 Release [Update: hotfix released] news

[UPDATE: A hofix has been released to solve the inventory bug for Original Men of War and partially solve it for Assault Squad 2 (vehicles work now). A future patch or version is expected to completely solve this. Get the hotfix for the correct version in the downloads section.]

This is a full release of DCG 4.5 for original Men of War and a beta release of DCG v4.5 for the Men of War: Assault Squad 2. The Unit Pack is not included in the Assault Squad 2 release because it is still being worked on.

Please note that the version for Men of War: Assault Squad 2 has a number of issues still:

1) The most recent patch broke the mechanism that allows soldiers' inventories to carry over to the next mission. This may be fixable in the next version of DCG. [Update: fixed for original Men of War, but not entirely solved for Assault Squad 2]

2) The minimap and some material files do not reload between missions due to caching by Assault Squad 2. This can lead to strange textures on some maps and the minimap being incorrect. There is a workaround for this: the problem goes away if you go all the way back to the main menu of Assault Squad 2 between missions (or exit the game entirely). It is not possible for the DCG team to fix this, but perhaps Digitalmindsoft will fix it if users request it.

3) There have been problems getting the mod.info file to work with new patches. It is set for the current patch from Nov 17th, 2015. Future patches will require users to manually edit this file with the new patch version in order for it to continue working.

Also, a friendly reminder: Zeke, Ngvede and others on the team have put many hours into the vehicles, skins, and other content. Please do not re-use the content without giving credit (and please ask their permission, too). We see too many cases where someone uses their models without credit and then another mod, which would have given credit if they had known, re-uses those models without credit, too. Please help keep them motivated by making sure this doesn't happen!

NEWS! From today (2016-03-01) the DCG team no longer allow any other mod to use our work WITHOUT a written permission from us, and mods that uses our stuff, must have a proper credit list added. Mods that existed before this date, is allowed to use the work that has been released in earlier DCG´s, but all new models etc that is included in DCG4.5 (and future versions of DCG) is affected by the above. The reason for this, is due to the fact that the new stuff we added in 4.5 is already appearing in other mods without us being credited for our work.
