- EARTHSIEGE PATCH 1.00 README 1/24/95
-
-
- The following bugs have been fixed:
-
- Getting "extra" Hercs.
- Hercs from single missions were being transferred to career
- files after a "resume" game. This no longer is the case.
-
- Save Career after end of game.
- There was an error that allowed you to back up a career after
- you had finished the final mission. This could overwrite data
- in your career file. The "SAVE" button is now disabled
- after you complete the final mission of the game.
-
- Weapon Damage Bitmaps in the Service Bay.
- Damage bitmaps on some weapons were not being updated after
- repairs were made (the weapons would function normally).
-
- Duplicate wingman names.
- The pilot names for your copilots have been corrected and duplicate
- names removed.
-
- Weapons display.
- A minor bug was fixed which caused the "OFFLINE" text to be
- improperly positioned on the cockpit weapons display,
- particularly on a Raptor.
-
- Linked weapons energy use.
- If a linked weapon was out of energy, you would not advance
- to the next weapon in the firing chain with some weapon
- configurations.
-
- Thrustmaster FLCS
- The mdef line in the Thrustmaster F-16 FLCS ES.B50 file has
- been corrected. Attempting to download the previous .B50 file
- would generate an error. Please note: You should select "joystick 1"
- as your control device in the preferences menu if you wish to use
- the programmable features of the FLCS.
-
- TAB key on sign-in screen.
- The TAB key did not function properly on the career menu.
- This could damage a career file. TAB key now works as outlined
- in the manual.
-
-
- NEW FEATURES:
-
-
- CAREER DIFFICULTY SETTING:
-
- A career difficulty feature has been added in this patch. You can now
- select the difficulty of a career before you begin it. You cannot change
- the difficulty of a career once it is in progress.
-
- RUDDER AXIS SWITCHING:
-
- You now have the option to swap the rudder axes if you desire. The
- KEYJOY.CFG file in the \MTECH\DATA subdirectory has an additional
- entry that should be self-explanitory (see the Earthsiege readme
- for more information about modifying KEYJOY.CFG).
-
- IMPROVED WCS MK II Support
-
- A new version of ES.ADV is provided, and needs to be downloaded to the WCS
- (see your WCS manual for directions on downloadling).
-
- Two things have been changed:
-
- 1) The throttle now operates over its entire forward/backward range, i.e.,
- centering the throttle stops the vehicle.
-
- 2) When using the WCS, the joystick Y-axis now controls the turret tilt
- (previously the joystick Y-axis was dead when using WCS).
-
-
- The following throttle keys have been added for WCS throttle support.
-
- CTL-1 Max reverse
- CTL-2 75% rev
- CTL-3 50% rev
- CTL-4 25% rev
- CTL-5 STOP
- CTL-6 STOP
- CTL-7 25% fwd
- CTL-8 50% fwd
- CTL-9 75% fwd
- CTL-0 Max forward
