This patch fixes the bug that was stopping the 'give ammo to nearby character' function from working

It also updates the Spanish translation file -- thanks for your help with this Ricardo!

Note that I have also made some changes to the zombie town attack events to hopefully make them more challenging: the zombies will arrive in several 'waves' rather than all at once.

You should make it so the characters killed by the zombies get back up under NPC control.

That would be so freakin' awesome.  :D

There's a "give ammo to nearby character" function?  Is this new?  That's extremely useful.

Is this supposed to work for giving ammo to gangs other than your own? Because it doesn't.

Well when I was giving ammo to my own gang members, all I had to do was go to the ped's inventory > Right click ammo > Give 4x rifle ammo to [insert name here]

When I tried to give ammo to Firefly I would go to the inventory, but nothing would happen when I right clicked the ammo.

I know this seems like a dumb question, but are you sure you were close enough? The code is very straightforward and it definitely shouldn't distinguish between peds belonging to you and those belonging to other players

edit: hmm.. it's possible patching didn't catch the code change. We can blame Vista's "user friendly" file ordering system that continually insists that you really need to sort by some ridiculous field such as 'rating'. I putting a new patch through now..

Vista?

Oh geez.

I'm so sorry Sam....

I hate it when one American makes all Americans look bad.
If it's any consolation, Mr. Gates pissed a lot of us off with that trainwreck too.

Windows 7 is good no? except for that stupid wifi issue with public your profile that you can't change for some reason, and so can't connect to your own wifi network..

Sorry back to your regularly scheduled program

Haven't tried 7, from what I hear it's pretty good.
Vista?
Wow.
I find it hilarious (and extremely telling) that MS extended XP support due to consumer...displeasure...... :D

It was quite a bit more than that.  Netbooks could not run Vista because of hardware constraints.  XP needed to be supported until MS could produce a "microkernel" that could function in less than a gig of ram.

Most customer dissatisfaction issues with Vista was the tighter security model.  Since XP lets pretty much any code that wants to run on your machine do so whether you give it permission to or not, most apps (including darkwind) took advantage of that to do things that technically were "against the rules".  Viruses took advantage of this *a lot*.  Vista started enforcing the rules, which broke a ton of apps, and pissed people off.  7 enforces those same rules, but since most apps are fixed now under pressure from Vista users, it doesn't piss people off anymore.

But personally, I think ArchLinux is the best OS I have ever used ;)

I know a bunch of music recording/editing software did NOT like Vista, and it made my life a living hell.
