BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed only for FAF v24

I got carried away.

• Fix for anti-teleport towers: https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed/pull/2
• Fix for teleport of tech 3 Aeon transport: https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed/pull/3
• Fix for teleport of tech 3 Aeon bot: https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-EXUnits/pull/1
• Fix for cloak / stealth not working on Shadow Splitter: https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-EXUnits/pull/2
• Fix for drones not working: https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed/pull/4

This should cover the majority of your issues @Doompants , @Uveso feel free to test / merge these as you see fit.

I'll make a pull request in the base game to fix the cloaking field effect not applying to the unit that emits the cloak field. That likely won't see the day of light until June. The next development iteration is set to release in June, see also:

@Jip

wow thanks for your awesome work!

In the last week my time was a bit tight. It was my birthday and of course Easter.
I will take some time on the weekend to merge your PR's and test it.

@Jip earning that cowboy hat! Thanks my dude!

@Uveso Happy Birthday!! Our group plays weekly on Fridays, but if you want some help testing the mod before you up it to the vault, just PM me with a link and I'll test what I can solo or rope someone into it during the week
.

Only things I see missing is the Cybran ACU transport fix and the crazy-high Czar crash damage.

@uveso

So we've had a couple weeks of games and everything on the fixed list seems to be working wonderfully, so thank you both again for maintaining.

Confirmed that the crazy-high ~16000 dmg Czar crash damage is still there, and the Cybran ACU maser still breaks if they get in a transport.

@Jip the maser breaking was something that happened at some point in vanilla, but was fixed. Are you able to identify what was done to fix it? I'm sure it's a case that the Cybran ACU in the BlackOps ACU mod probably broke at the same time, but just never got fixed like Vanilla did.

@Doompants

Thanks again for your help!!!

@Uveso I was using a few mods including BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed-v23 in an offline skirmish game and found that I could not save a game - FAF crashes. I don't see anything in the logs though. I turned off all mods and verified that your latest mod BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed-v23 is the one causing the crash (being the only mod loaded). Are there any quick fixes available? Or perhaps you could point me to an earlier version of BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed to try out until the fix is done. Many thanks!

@pacificoast

I only saved a few games in the early days of 2007.
After using mods i stoped using the save feature because the game crashed to often.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix this or if it's even fixable.

@uveso Thanks for your swift reply. BlackOps Unleashed is a great unit pack so I'll try to work around not using saves.

@uveso

Hi Uveso,

I've been having a weird crash when using AI Wave Survival and BlackOps Unleashed, that only began after the latest 3758 Developers Patch.

I already wrote up the issue, linked here. Don't know if you want to take a look.
https://forum.faforever.com/topic/6236/3758-developers-patch-crash-using-ai-wave-survival-and-blackops-unleashed

@Uveso I'll look into it, do you have time to make a new release next weekend?

@Uveso it seems the mod behave strangely with the latest 3758 Developers Patch.
While other units works completely fine, those units carrying drones are not display the correct movement and attack animation. Those units simply follow targets but not fire, also by buliding one of the broken units, it seem to affect all units constructed afterwards to have the same strange behavior.
Are there any quick fixes for this problem?

I found the issues with the drone carriers:

• https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed/pull/8

Up to Uveso to upload them now. If there are more issues then please name the specific unit

Thanks for the quick fix. It works fine now

Hello there @Uveso it would seems that I have the same problem after the recent patch just like some people above.
Yes, it is a bunch of broken units of the BlackOps mod that will break the game any time they are constructed(Animation of firing sequence + walking etc.) as well as Production structures instead of upgrading just builds next tear factory right withing itself. By most part I met this problem with UEF and Cybran, but not EON. In particular game will break the moment Goliath or Basilisk enters its construction stage, most of the units, building and commander modules will be created broken after that.

https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed/pull/8

I've already visited this link and changed BlackOps files a bunch of time with it and yet, to no avail (Either problem remains or Commander wouldn't even spawn(teleport) on the battlefield.
I've purged every trase of FAF and SubCom from my PC, without any file left, then reinstalled all and yet it eould seem that the problem is inside the mod itself.

Can you please help me?
With respect, humble enjoyer of the greatest RTS of all time.

@BattleshipOni can you share me the configuration of your games, and the game logs with the errors in it?

game_20267393.log
game_20265653.log
game_20265635.log
game_20265626.log
game_20265554.log
game_20265540.log

This is a game with errors that I've done just now as well as rest of logs during the last 24 hours.

P.S. I am new with FAF bug rerports so please excuse me

As for configuration: Just a test match with 3 Black Ops related mods, (Black Ops itself, EX units and Commander module system).

P.S.2. - Is there any other way to show "configuration of your games"?

P.S.3. - Is the "client.log" necessary for the cause?
