I think this is played off from newnet - not sure why no one mentioned that. XC_Engine doesn't do anything to modify the weapons.
I think anth can shed some more light on this, but from at least what I understood, they can add new things, as long as 2 basic conditions are met:KillRoy1972 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07, 2019 9:31 pm What I understand is that they don't have permission to add new things, but only fixes and tweaks..
It doesn't happen that way, it's always on point.Gustavo6046 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07, 2019 4:51 pm It is very slight. Have you tried non-hitscan weapons? Also, maybe you just didn't notice!
Your analysis is spot on! The number of in-game features we added/are adding is quite limited, and they all serve to make the game run better on modern platforms. UnrealEd is a different story. We are working towards unifying OldUnreal's 227 UEd with UT's UEd. Both have features that the other does not have. I will post a (very tentative) change log soonish.Feralidragon wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07, 2019 10:50 pmI think anth can shed some more light on this, but from at least what I understood, they can add new things, as long as 2 basic conditions are met:KillRoy1972 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07, 2019 9:31 pm What I understand is that they don't have permission to add new things, but only fixes and tweaks..
- they don't break network compatibility: in other words, a v436 client must be able to connect and play with a v469 server without issues;
- they don't change the overall look and feel of the game: in other words, they cannot reinvent the UI, or change whichever makes UT99, UT99 (the latter is a bit more tricky to understand the boundary).
This means he can add new things, such as add new settings, which he did afaik, and even new minor features.
Major features such as static mesh systems and such are a no go, because they violate the first condition, and depending on one's perspective, may also violate the second.
It's likely, however, that anth, along anyone else helping in building new patches, are able to do more radical changes to the Unreal Editor itself, since whichever they do in the editor, as long as it works and works well, it doesn't violate the 2 conditions above.
They may also release new native headers, and even rewrite and create new native bindings to make it possible to implement other things in the game that weren't possible in v436.
Which could open the way for other major features to be implemented, but independently from the patch itself, making it so that the 2 conditions above aren't violated, but the community as a whole can still develop new features.
Case in point, XC_Engine had some fixes transferred over to the patch, but most features will stay in XC_Engine itself, it may just be easier in the future for Higor to implement new things, and distribute those things if the patched game allows it in some way.
Do you have a rough idea when it will be released, will it be 2019 or more likely 2020?anth wrote: ↑Tue Oct 08, 2019 1:01 pm Your analysis is spot on!

Oh interesting... didn't notice this.PrinceOfFunky wrote: ↑Tue Oct 08, 2019 6:35 pm 14) If I zoom with a sniper and I throw it, if I don't have any other weapon then SwitchToBestWeapon() won't do anything and I will end up stuck with the zoom FOV until I pick up another weapon (which is difficult with a tiny FOV);
