Release v5

This release contains:

• Three multiplayer maps:
  • DM Island
  • DM Japan
  • DM Power
• Three player models:
  • MI6 Stealth
  • MI6 Suit
  • MI6 Tux
• Eight weapons:
  • Fists
  • Frinesi (shotgun)
  • Militek (grenade launcher)
  • L96A1 (sniper)
  • P99 (pistol)
  • Raptor (handgun)
  • Storm (sub-machine gun)
  • Frag grenade

The main additions to this release are:

• Weapon behaviour and damage changes:
  • Tweaked Frinesi inaccuracy curve.
    • Crouching now provides slightly less accuracy.
    • The inaccuracy decay after firing has been extended.
    • The crosshair max radius has been increased to more accurately represent the spread.
  • Increased Raptor damage from 30 to 50.
  • Slightly increased Raptor accuracy.
  • Decreased L96A1 damage from 110 to 90.
  • Reduced Militek base damage from 100 to 75.
  • Increased Militek damage multiplier when directly hitting other players from 1.25x to 1.6x.
  • Reduced Militek timed grenade fuse from 4 seconds to 2 seconds.
  • Reduced frag grenade contact friction from 0.95 to 0.7. This means that grenades bounce more.
  • Reduced frag grenade fuse time from 4 seconds to 2 seconds.
  • Reduced frag grenade pin pull time from 1 second to 0.75 seconds.
  • Increased frag grenade refire delay from 0.5 seconds to 0.91 seconds.
• Tweaked player movement speeds:
  • Reduced player forward/backward speed from 280 to 250.
  • Reduced player strafe speed from 240 to 215.
• Increased bullet tracer speed, to improve the feel of firing shots. This is a graphical change only - shots register on the same frame as they are fired, as has always been the case.
• Increased health points gained from health kits from 15 to 50.
• Added support for client-side props.
  • All maps now contain their simple static props that used to be specified as item_generic entities in original Nightfire. These props are now handled entirely client-side, so that they do not take up entity slots on the server.
• Fixed the player sticking to surfaces with a magnetic-like feeling when noclipping.
• Fixed an issue with client-side weapon prediction where weapons would not play their deploy animations when first picked up. Weapon prediction is still disabled by default as it does not fully work yet.
• Lag compensation has been enabled - the fact that this was disabled was an error. Shots should feel much more accurate now.
• Stopped fallback model from being selectable as a multiplayer model.
• Updated all player model animations to those from original Nightfire.
• General internal improvements.
