MoH Arena Guard 1.0.9 installs this release for you. It asks once for each game folder and keeps that folder up to date from then on. To install by hand:

1. Extract the zip into your Medal of Honor: Allied Assault folder, the one that holds main. It replaces the files of an older release. The zip has a main folder of its own with one file, zz_moharena_ui.pk3, which goes into yours.
2. Start launch_openmohaa_base.exe (Allied Assault), launch_openmohaa_spearhead.exe (Spearhead) or launch_openmohaa_breakthrough.exe (Breakthrough), or pick one of them in MoH Arena Guard.

MoH Arena Guard 1.0.9 starts this release and no older one. Guard checks the SHA-256 of openmohaa.exe:

• x64: 19d95972d37e042c4cea19dbb49e42789e62d892c1d56f48f4a3e52ab9bf88eb
• x86: 243b08cd423bda308fe74e50ae16b83bd00713541343a24d984b985723936b20

Each zip also has SHA256SUMS.txt for its executables, its libraries and the pack of the modern UI.

Changes since v0.1.3

• Optional modern UI. Guard 1.0.9 has a box "Use the modern UI" among its game options. Ticked, the game starts with the menus and HUD of Project: Omaha in place of the original ones. Unticked, the game looks and plays as it always did. The box is off until you tick it, and a change counts from the next game start.
• The settings menu of the modern UI changes only settings and key binds from a fixed list inside the client, and each of them stays inside MoH Arena's rules. It changes one only when you change its control.
• Four key commands are new, all for the modern UI: useprimary (takes your primary weapon), toggle_spectate_firstperson (first-person view while you spectate), toggle_scoreboard_cursor and cycle_scoreboard_sort (the mouse cursor and the sort column of the modern scoreboard). MoH Arena's rules allow them.
• The files of the modern UI come as one pack, main/zz_moharena_ui.pk3. Without the pack the game starts with the original UI.
• The kill feed of the modern UI has the green and red of the death messages, so in Allied Assault it follows the F7 menu's option "Kill message colors".
• The sniper scopes of v0.1.3 are part of this release.

Known limits: Project: Omaha built its UI for Allied Assault, so Spearhead and Breakthrough are not complete in it yet. On a server that runs with sv_pure 1 the game cannot read the modern UI's files while you are connected. That is not solved yet, so play with the original UI on such a server.

The modern UI is the work of Project: Omaha by JayRewd, under the GNU General Public License version 2 or later. OpenMoH Arena is not affiliated with or endorsed by Project: Omaha. THIRD-PARTY.txt in each zip names the parts by others and their licences.

Differences from OpenMoHAA

• Windows builds can load the MoH Arena Guard module, which adds the F7 Guard menu and the other MoH Arena features. The module loads only when Guard starts the game and the module file has the SHA-256 that Guard gives. In any other case the game runs like OpenMoHAA.
• An optional modern UI, off by default.
• Same network protocol as OpenMoHAA, so it joins the same servers.
