This is the official Statement from the Aurora Mod of the Shock Illusion Studios.
Today we want to release our first patch for the Beta.
We collected your bug reports and improved the game. The first patch will fix the biggest errors.
The patch contains following fixes:
Performance Optimized Version of Funyard
Optimized Version of the sphere
Rebalanced weapon-spawning system
Rebalanced weapon damage
Individual ammo for each weapon
New effects for the M7
Other sounds for the MP7
More ammo for each weapon
Fixed sniper scope
Added Laserpointer in Blue, Green and Red for the XCP2
Improved Updater Tool
When you start the Mod next time, it will be automatically updated. This can take quite a long time, if many people are updating simultaneosly. Therefore we are providing you further mirrors for downloading the patch.
Actually we wanted to release the patch Saturday 13th September, but the Version 0.1.1.0 and 0.1.1.2 had a major error, so that we decided to release a completely new version.
We want to note, the Multiplayer Beta is a trimmed Version of our Multiplayer. There are many more features to come. You can see these on the Homepage. This Pre-MP-Beta is only a first insight of our Multiplayer-Part.
The Updates you can install via Installation-files, or you can use the Auto downloader to patch the Game on the Actually Version.
The Auto downloader will search automatically for Updates if you start our Mod.
Last Words:
We wish you some fun with our Beta. We hope you will support us with your Bug reports, improvements andRenewals.
