Changes in 4.5.3

Post by Paddy » Fri Feb 16, 2018 1:49 pm

We will be activating Version 4.53 on Steam. (should be up Friday February 16th)

Changes:

- Netcode improvements
- Addition of hi resolution cockpits for all aircraft
- Added drag for Hurricane and Bf-110 bombracks
- Correct gunsights for British types
- Changes to AI gunner effectiveness (less effective)
- Fix to allow Vehicles to be driveable
- Fix to reduce the range at which active AI gunners are being drawn by the game engine... fps saving
- Some small changes to the Sounds

Please note for those wanting to host servers:

The server will have a tendency to park cores... which will increase lag.

Changing the power options to "high performance", will improve performance considerably. Please check your server settings.

Installed it, there's some greyed out aircraft in the main menu to pick the driveable vehicles, otherwise meh. Zero enthusiasm here, I'll keep it installed while it's needed for campaign.

Can we run our campaign or not? Only important question.

Until it's been tested who knows, I personally wouldn't hold my breath.
Ask about ACG contraband, I can get what you need.

Where does one download 4.5.3? I cannot launch "Blitz" this morning after a Win8.1 update. Blitz worked fine yesterday.

Cheers!

It should be automatic when you launch steam.

Do you have the game set up to automatically update? See if this helps . Got it from ATAG Forum

Attention:
Please verify your game files through steam for the new patch 4.53

If having issues crashes or graphic glitches, backup confUser.ini and user.ini from Documents\1C SoftClub\Cliffs of Dover, put the backup into 1C Softclub and delete the Cliffs of Dover folder.
You have to set your graphics again.

Step 1: Verify game files through steam.
Step 2: Backup confuser.ini and user.ini and delete Cliffs of Dover folder inside 1C SoftClub
Step 3: Launch cliffs and close it again. Your fresh 1C SoftClub\Cliffs of Dover folder has been created now.
Step 4: Put the confuser.ini and user.ini back in.

Why wouldnt you? You have the latest netcode now. Atag ran it fine with 90+ players.

Just remember to set server to max performance.
