I started programming the beta back in October 2005 with the beta
released in November, over Christmas 2005 the first released version was
programmed with a lot of new features, due to feedback via users.
Now It's packed with features so much so that I can't use the old PDA
GUI anymore, just not enough room to fit it all on.
I have had suggestions of sliding panels that I may look into at a later
date, but for now it's a standard windows form style.
What is it?
I am sure most of you out there have started
playing a map only to be shot in the first few seconds of a mission that
is likely to take 5-10 minutes to complete, and think this is my chance
to make a coffee or browse your Clan website or what ever else you do
after minimizing the game screen, only to find the game has restarted
and your dead again at spawn, It did happen to me but not anymore.
Program Description
Now you can have notification when the game is about to restart via
a PC speaker (siren) also verbal notification and the game maximizes
automatically, never miss the start of a new game.
But I did not stop there, you will also get
Key binding on the fly then you join different maps, for team messages
only.
Automatically check AA authentication servers are running.
Automatically check PunkBuster files are up to date.
Holds a list of your favourite servers (easy jump and join)
Holds a list of your favourite TeamSpeak Servers (easy jump and join)
Holds a list of all your buddy’s, and tell you when they are online.
Displays a multitude of graphical information about servers/players
online.
Join/Auto-Queue a server, saves clicking connect button.
Master Server Browser, displaying all maps at present, with easy jump
and join (100% better than 2.7’s browser at the moment unfortunately).
Notification about Version Updates.
At the end of each game in the round can
verbally tell you
You’re Score
You’re Kills
You’re Roe
You’re Ping
Who killed the most in the game
Who scored the most in the game
You’re Fragrate
How long you have been playing
And during the game
An alarm timer, just in-case you can only play for an hour or more.
When there are x players still alive in the game, I have mine set to 5
When someone joins/leaves the server, so you can tell your buddy to
join.
Option to send your game play to a website so you
can see WebPages of analysis data about your online play, and if your
Clan use it, a great little weekly competition.
A little support forum to give feedback and suggestions.
Anyway enough said, have a look around at the
menus and see what you think.
Side affects
Bandwidth would normally be the main culprit here, but after extensive
testing the bandwidth used during game play is only 4-5Kb max every two
seconds, this should not affect your game or course you lag.
Speech
Engines - depending on the speech voice you have selected (some voices
are very complex) you may experience a some audio break-up at the
the end for each game or round, this is down to good old PC speed and
other tasks running on your computer.
Computer
CPU time is up to 35% every 2 seconds to process data stream. measured
on my 2.4Ghz PC
this
does not lag AA at all.
Guarantee
I
guarantee this program is Virus, Adware, Spyware free
provided you only download
it from this website.
It does not
affect your installed copy of Americas Army in any form, It does not
change any settings you may have, It will not make you play better or
worse.
IT
WILL NOT GET YOU BANNED VIA PunkBuster (PB) FOR USING IT.
