Bien longtemps après le dernier patch officiel, Codemasters sort enfin la version stable du patch 1.96 pour Operation Flashpoint, le FPS de guerre de Bohemia Interactive. Ça corrige une masse énorme de trucs et de bidules, ça en rajoute aussi, et c’est probablement une bonne idée de l’installer si vous continuez à jouer à Flashpoint en multijoueur.
Le patch existe en différentes versions : patch complet pour toutes les versions, patch complet pour l’add-on Resistance et petit patch depuis la dernière version du jeu complet. Le tout est également disponible sur notre FTP. Il y a également un nouveau serveur dédié sous Windows, lui aussi trouvable chez nous.[–SUITE–]Le (long) changelog :
- Multiplayer:
- When MP mission file transfer failes, client is disconnected

- Gunner aiming was unstable.
- Visual glithes in the ingame browser.
- Faster response in various game setup screens.
- Testing of server-client mod compatibility is now possible.
- Stability and Security:
