- New MG tracer effect uses dynamic light.

- All automatics weapons(except for MG's) now have burst modifiers applied to them. The first four shots will result in reduced recoil offset, however if a player continues firing they will feel the full recoil effect. It will take a player 3 seconds of non-firing to recover from a burst and have the modifiers applied for their next firing group. This is done automatically and cannot be controlled by the player
- New recorded voice commands
- Free Aim Area has been implemented on all guns except for the MG's.
- Implemented in-game MG resupply
MG Resupply System:
- All roles currently carry one MG magazine
- You can only resupply a gunner who is carrying an MG as their current weapon
- To resupply a gunner, center the character in your screen so you can see their name, then run up to them. Once you're within 10 feet of the gunner, your view of their name will change, it will include some numbers; these numbers indicate the current number of magazine the player is carrying and the max number they can carry. For example, Antarian will turn into Antarian MG AMMO[5/6], which means the gunner is carrying 5 magazines and can carry up to 6 total.
- Once this new description appears, you are free to resupply the gunner by pressing the 'G' key.
- If resupply is successful, you'll hear a magazine drop sound and the players name will revert to just the name and no numbers
- If you run up to a gunner, and their name display doesn't change, one of two things is possible:
1.) you've already used your carried MG ammo
2.) the gunner already has a full load of ammo and can't carry any more
- Players get 1 point for resupplying a gunner who needs ammo
Spectator System
- Hitting the Fire button views the next player (does nothing in roaming mode)
- Alt-fire switches between available modes (roaming, free chase camera, locked chase camera)
- Added server option "ForceChaseCam" to control available spectator modes for players (0 = all modes available, 1 = roaming not available, 2 = only locked chase camera available)
- Players go to spectator mode after dying
Free Aim Area Description:
- Free Aim provides a realistic depiction of hip-mode shooting by eliminating the static placement of the weapon on the screen
- In Free Aim, the gun a player is holding can move freely within a small 'box'. While the weapon moves within this box the player will turn at a slower rate, giving the impression of free weapon movement. However if the player moves the weapon far enough in any direction, it will cause the player to turn at the normal rotation rate.
- The movement of a weapon within the Free Aim 'box' is set independent of the MouseSensitivity, however the actual player movement is still dependent on the MouseSensitivity.
- Weapons currently have 2 different movement speeds within the Free Aim 'box': medium and fast. Currently, all pistols are set to move fast, and all other weapons, except for MG's are set to move medium.
- While a player is prone, Free Aim will be de-activated
- Recoil is handled differently on weapons that use Free Aim; recoil is now applied to the weapon first. What this means is that if a player is using a weapon that uses Free Aim, firing the weapon will cause the weapon to move within it's Free Aim 'box'. Recoil will be applied to the player if the weapon passes its movement threshold limit.
- Free Aim is NOT ACTIVE WHEN A PLAYER IS USING IRON SIGHTS
Menu changes:
- The Configuration Menus now have the same organization as the UT2004 Menus. That means that ?Configure Controls? and ?Speech Binder? are now under the ?Input? tab on the Configuration Menu. The ?Speech Binder? menu now has RO specific voice bindings.
- The ?Player? Tab under the configuration menu shows 3D renders of the player models.
- There is a ?Voice Options? sub menu under the ?Audio? Tab for configuring Voice Chat options.
- New RedOrchestra specific tips have been added and will be showed during maploading.
- On the in game menu (esc key) there is now an option to get to Communications menu. The Communications menu has options for muting players.
