Mods like this, and other complex mods, are doing a huge number of things that the original game was not designed to handle. If the engine code and compiler was made available, like developing something with UE4, then the engine itself can be added to. But that is something only in the realm of the developers. So some things may not work right during mod development. Making changes to fix one thing may cause problems with something else unforeseen. Goes with the territory. Therefore I ask for patience. I want things to work. I will also say that often things do work correctly. But maybe not in the way some people want. Some weapons are highly accurate but not so good at spraying. Others are powerful but hard to handle. Not going to get a single weapon that can do it all. Changes and tweaks: Simplified the streak activation. Before it was trying to be as accurate as possible because different weapons have different lower times. This is possibly not working in all cases. So instead there is only a single wait time of a 1 second drop for all weapons to start. This is unrelated to the animations and only related to activating streaks. Just a common scripted delay. Since some weapons are much faster than that this 1 second might be over when the pad or phone is 1/2 way raised. At this time it will check your current weapon and see if you are holding a valid item or if you did a quick change. If no change, proceed. If a different item, exit. General testing at home I saw no problems but I didnt test every weapon. I also didnt get a chance for extensive quick-cycling or button mashing tests. So bear with me and if this problem still occurs remember what the weapon was, what you were trying to activate, and what you did so I can check it out. Sped up the activation times a bit for the car, predator, sentrygun. Because previously you 'held' the sentry as a special weapon there were extra checks needed. Now since they are standard streak weapons those checks are not needed and there is no need to wait for them to complete. This is another change that needs good testing. Defrosting armor bonus turned off. Various minor bug fixes. J3st3r, Damage_inc-, Deckard and 1 other 4 Awards

Right now, on the Linux server, map compatibility is low and I cannot test at home since I dont have a Linux box set up with a cod4 server. Awards

In softcore games the loadout is always on anyways so this would be hc only. Eventually I would like it if the 'null' icons are not there but they will remain for the time being during development. Would this help with keeping track of what you have and what keys they are assigned to? Awards

Needs work however for those times when they should be off and then restored. Tell me if there are instances where this should be so. Eventually, when all is working and no problems, when there are no streaks there will be no icon instead of the current 'null' one. iboomboom 1 Awards

I like the crosshairs for rds better. Only streak I got, a car, worked ok. No missing streak icons. If streak buttons are assigned, as displayed by the hud, but still dont work try reassigning them. Or if that doesnt work delete your profile. That shouldnt be needed but it cant hurt. couple notes: For game balance, as a counter for its high accuracy, the SMR lower time is noticeably slower than other weapons. So activating a streak for example will take a little longer because it will take a little longer to lower and change to the pad. I was asked about throwing knives. I have the files needed for it, not including the scripting I would have to write up, but it adds some considerable weight to the mod mainly due to all the player animations needed. If enough people would like to change the blue ice color to green or something else post here and I will see what I can do. Lastly.... my aim sucks. Edited March 20, 2015 by Sammy Awards

That accounts for lowering the current weapon, starting to raise the pad, fadeout, car setup (numerous things happen here that require some time), fade in, and release. I might be able to shorten that a bit but when I do it will require a lot of testing to make sure nothing goes wrong. So if I do this I will appreciate help in testing it. Awards

Starting perk armor lowered to 35 from 70 for now. So, assuming the SMR and 30 damage (not counting range factors), 30 will leave 5 armor left so full protection. Next 30 will use the 5 armor and damage health by 25 (so 5 health left). It will hurt. In these kinds of cases, when there is 5 left, bandages will come in handy so use them. OTOH, weapons with 40 damage (ak47) will kill in two shots. Awards

To use streaks you must bind all four of them. Not just '6'. If any of the icons say 'unbound' then you have not done this yet.
