Two new multiplayer maps have been added:

Push forward into the gem of Tunisia, Bizerte. Root out the Axis positions and help bring freedom into Africa. Battle in the streets near the canal, root enemies out of the ancient fortress, or jump on to the mortar and machine gun nests and rain fire down on the enemy!

Stuckguter (mp_Ship_lib) Game Modes available: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Liberation, Objective

Stuckguter, a German cargo ship, is being raided by the Allies. Their precious munitions cargo must be captured, along with all hands! But use caution, the Axis are going to want prisoners as well, so they can determine who leaked their location.

New Mutliplayer Weapon:

Italian Breda Heavy Machine Gun –

URGENT NOTICE: The Breda heavy machine gun replaces German STG for all Italian infantry. This weapon uses a thicker 8mm bullet and weighs nearly 20 lbs.

Modheight2 command added for mod makers.

==================================================================

Pixomatic

==================================================================

Medal of Honor Allied Assault(tm) Breakthrough now incorporates Pixomatic created by Rad Game Tools, Inc.

To enable this feature, choose the Pixomatic shortcut from the Start Menu.

Pixomatic console commands:

r_usepixo [0|1|2|3]

0 - use HW

1 - use Pixomatic

2 - use Pixomatic stretched horizontally and vertically

3 - use Pixomatic stretched vertically

For example, from the console you should be able to:

r_usepixo 2

vid_restart

This will restart the renderer in Pixomatic mode.

==================================================================

Manual Addendum

==================================================================

New Multiplayer Weapon:

Mines (this was new to Breakthrough 1.0, however not described in the manual):

Mines are a new weapon available to the infantry of all nations. Soldiers selecting Mines will be armed with a minedetector and a complement of four mines. By pressing fire with the minedetector equipped, soldiers are able to lay down mines in any loose surface (sand, rubble, dirt, etc). If an enemy player steps on a mine, the mine owner will get the kill. The minedetector can be used to detect the mines placed by enemy players. In addition to the minedetector and mines, soldiers will be equipped with a pistol for urgent self defense.

Known issues: The Mines may not work correctly in non-Breakthrough maps.

==================================================================

Patch Fixes

==================================================================

Palermo's Objective mode has been tweaked to make things easier for the Axis side. It was previously nearly impossible for them to win.

Anzio Beach's sandy beach has been fixed. You can now lay mines anywhere on the beach.

Voting for bogus cvar values will now be rejected.

Improved functionality when using rcon commands with variables with spaces (e.g. "John Baker" would only process as "John").

Banning rifles now works - unless all weapons have been banned, then rifles will be unbanned.

Reloadmap can only be done as a serverside command.

cl_playintro no longer causes problems with sv_pure.

==============================================================

Advanced User info

==============================================================

This information was left out of the original readme that would be useful to advanced players. These features exist in Breakthrough 1.0.

Battlechat Macros

As an aid to players trying to coordinate team play, several macros have been built into the chat parser for Breakthrough. The following strings will be replaced with dynamic text depending on the current state of the player saying the string:

$c - The player's current condition ("almost dead", "slightly wounded")

$d - The direction the player is currently facing ("North", "South West")

$l - The location in the map where the player is ("North West corner", "East side")

$n - The teammates that are near the player ("General Wheathers and Fritz")

$w - The player's current weapon class ("rifle", "sniper")

$r - The distance from the player to whatever's in the player's sights ("85 feet")

$a - The name of the person the player currently has in his sights ("Die Commandant")

For instance, if a player said "I'm with $n at the $l" then everyone would hear "I'm with General Wheathers and Fritz at the East side." If the player said "I can see the enemy $r to the $d" then everyone would hear "I can see the enemy 100 feet to the East". These macros are mostly intended to be placed in a bound alias, so that players can coordinate movements in team on team games with a simple key press.

The distances, by default, are given in feet; but by setting g_qunits_to_feet to zero (0) the results of $r will be given in meters.

The battlechat macros can be disabled on any particular server by setting g_chat_expansion to zero (0).

Mappers who want to extend the $l macro can place info_landmark entities in their maps and make sure that the "landmark_name" attribute is set to the value they want to appear when players near the landmark use the $l macro.

Map Design and Mines

Specifically, landmines can only be placed on shaders who have a "surfaceparm" value that is set to one of the following values:

paper

dirt

grass

mud

puddle

gravel

sand

foliage

snow

For instance, the following shader would allow players to place landmines in it (as it uses the "grass" surfaceparm):

textures/it_terrain/it_t_grass01d-01ab

{

qer_editorimage textures/it_terrain/it_t_grass01d-01ab.tga

qer_keyword italy

qer_keyword terrain

qer_keyword grass

surfaceparm grass

{

map textures/it_terrain/it_t_grass01d-01ab.tga

nextbundle

map $lightmap

}

}
