This is the Halloween patch we've been working on for the last few days. Most of my work on this actually turned out to be implementing custom decals, which is something I wanted to do anyway..

The 'Halloween Event' is now live. I'll make a roleplaying post about it too...

The patch includes:

* Rare Halloween decals on NPC wilderness cars, available for a limited time only, so go get 'em! ;-)
* You can borrow cars from Dexter (go to My Gang > Vehicles) for use in the wilderness. Non-subscribers have access to squads and wilderness gameplay for a limited time during this event.
* Racing numbers and L plates
* Decals for league title holders in town events (a gang can switch between any league badges it currently holds ? go to My Gang and Edit Settings. Marshals also get a decal to use)
* F2 and F3 now cycle thru vehicle labeling modes. You can now see 2 labels above each car if required. Vehicle name has been added to the options.

Thanks for the F2/F3 implementation, Sam! Being the micromanaging son of a micromanaging bastard that I am, I believe this to be one of the best patches yet.

The borrowing event is really nicely implemented as well! Just tell me if you need any Gazette or other writing work done in connection to the Halloween event (such as the article you just added to the Gazette).

Feel free to edit my article Ayjona..
Hopefully we'll get some nice pictures to add to it also.

And if anyone else has some material to offer from their Halloween activities in Evan, please pass it on to us..
