Let's try this again...
Things to download:
Executable (http://www.bzuniverse.com/~betadudes/unprotected/bzone_d3d9_2009-12-16.7z)
Program Database (http://www.bzuniverse.com/~betadudes/unprotected/bzone_d3d9_2009-12-16.pdb.7z) (optional)
Changes:
- Pilot hopping out of a Barracks no longer adds pilots (it deducts 1 for now, but that may change)
- Fixed SITE camera rendering
- Fixed external view camera controls at high frame rates
- Fixed incorrect font in shell text areas (e.g. mission briefing screen)
- Fixed an invalid floating-point operation in nacelle code when Hovercraft explodes
- Fixed some asserts in Inst04Mission
- Made AIP parsing more tolerant, treating integer and floating-point equally
- Fixed invalid seeing range for non-Craft in AIP
- Limited AIP update to 60Hz
- Set unit hit points value correctly (used to determine strength)
I put the Anet links and usual reminders in another message since they will change only rarely.
Going through the missions now and noticed just now that the thruster flames turn off when you target the vehicle.
edit: All thrusters on all vehicles turn off.
Ah, right. I haven't touched that yet.
I ran through the first 6 SP missions last night without a single hitch. All the models and textures looked good, a solid 60FPS even while recording with FRAPs.
One thing I saw (and I think this is just BZ1), one of my scavs was knocked into the constructor and the two did a wild mid air dance that ended with the scav going vertical like an ejected pilot. It was hilarious to see a scav that high in the air! I've tangled with the constructor before and went sailing but never that high.

(ehhh-hemmm)
UHhhhh... 'scuse me for interupting here, but... Eddy, aren't you forgetting ALL those time I mopped the walls of SnR with you and your scout???? "never went sailing that high" my arse........
Wall OUT!
Wall, half the time you weren't even awake... How do you know you weren't dreaming?
:evil:
:-o (I really can't stop snickering/laughing when I look at that body flopped on the ground!)

awsome.
LOL - I gotta dig up my custom made personal flag that some incredibly talented bottle maker created for me.
BTW, the last time we sniped, Wall had so many holes in his head, he sounded like a pipe organ when ran around :)
I ran into a crash last night, but wasn't able to get anything useful from VS C++. Windows Event Viewer gave me the following. Hopefully something useful is in there.
Faulting application name: bzone.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4b28bb9e

Hm. That fault address doesn't match anything in the map file, so it may be one of the imported libraries.
I couldn't get any useful info out of Visual studio because I was unable to see it's elevated permissions window to give it administrative access so I had to get that info from the Events log.
I played the final mission last night with the continuous moon quake (funny that the moon has grass on it). The shaking was minor and manageable. The only issue I saw was the transport ship, some of the sides were missing and a few gaps in the textures.
Otherwise, no problems...

Achilles was a moon like Earth :evil:
On my 2.4Ghz pc when i start Bz and click on single player, the full screen switchs to a 640x480 shell in the upper left corner and when i click on options the shell is froze and gives me the windows beep.
This also happens on my new pc (E8400) sometimes.
Windows 7 32bit doesn't start at all.
