This is the last version of JO:IC we plan to make with new things in it.
There may be fixes in the future, but they will not include new content. We are starting up a new mod from the ground up which will include new content.
New Stuff We did not add as many new objects this time around. Search in NILE for IC4: to find them. Here are some highlights:
* Tiger helicopter: Comes in several versions. One allows the pilot to fire stingers while still having a gunner on a cannon.
* Wiesel: Mobile platform for stingers, TOW missiles, or a 20mm cannon
* DF2 Manor and ware house
* New Bull & R8Bob terrains
* Added 2 missing BHD buildings
* A few more desert/snow/jungle options to some stock vehicles
* Barb wire fence which causes player damage if you come into contact with it
Skin Changes
* Quite a few changes on both sides.
Howitzer / Nuke Howitzer Changes
* Both howitzer types now drive properly (won't flip over so easy)
* Both types cannot be fired level directly at a target. There is no longer a "skip point" on either howitzer's gun.
* Both types drive like tanks and have moving treads.
* Turrets are allowed to rotate freely
* The nuke round now fires with the trajectory of a standard howitzer shot. You get to use the mortar aimpoint on the map.
* The destructiveness of the nuke has been increased and has a big flash of light when it goes off
* The standard howitzer destructive radius has been reduced slightly
* The standard howitzer fires at the rate of 1 round per 6 seconds for the first three rounds (same rate as v3) but thereafter it can only fire at a rate of 1 round per 12 seconds.
Mortar Changes
* Mortars now have 5 types which can be fired. Press your mortar key repeatedly to cycle thru the types:
* Fragmentation round: large blast radius but low effectiveness (1 hit not lethal). Multiple people must fire together to get a kill zone.
* High explosive round: high damage level (1 shot kill on APC) but small radius, need a spotter to use well
* Flash bang round: 20 meter radius with same black out time as the hand nade
* Illumination round: lights stuff up, duh
* White Phosphorus round: smoke 'em if you got 'em
Other Changes / Fixes
* A number of weapon sights updated. Check out RPG in particular.
* Semi auto shotgun added
* Thermite effects changed to look like it is burning for several seconds before causing damage.
* Effectiveness of minigun rounds returned to v2 specs (they were made very ineffective in v3)
* Effectiveness of stingers returned to v2 specs
* Skip point on gunboat turret fixed
* Hit box on OH-58 rotors fixed
* Some weapon sounds changed
Known Issues
* If you rotate the howitzer to the side and use max angle, the gunner's feet are visible and can be shot with small arms from outside the vehicle.
