In addition to general maintenance modifications, this update addresses the following issues: The
game will now support force-feedback joysticks, 16-button joysticks, simultaneously connected
joysticks, multiple hat-switch joysticks, and other additional joystick capabilities. The update also
modifies the flight model and air-speed information to provide more realistic aircraft performance -- the
most noticeable differences will be the ability to fly at higher speeds at higher altitudes.
The update also provides public and private NovaWorld hosting capabilities, allowing users to join
other user-hosted games through NovaWorld. Side passwords have been included for some
multiplayer games as well.
The update provides additional 3-D support for some video cards. Cheat code capabilities during
multiplayer have been addressed. |
