A big thanks to Half-Dead for creating these models for us!Download it here: http://www.grey-hat.net/ocrpmodels.zip
If using the OCRP Content SVN, just update that!The download is an addon format. Put the folder in the ZIP inside your addons folder Update 9 is right around the corner. And because it is so awesome, this post is being made HOURS before it's even considered to be released.
That's right folks, the Big Sexy Model Update, an update probably very few of you have heard about, is now here! We have an entirely new system for models, clothes, and job models. But don't worry, everything looks the same to you all. The difference is the models now allow us to keep the same model and face when switching jobs. So I have spent the past couple hours working on getting this system perfected so that we could best use these amazing models given to us. With the exception of SWAT you will now keep your model when switching jobs. The only thing to change will be clothes.
There are 15 seperate base models to choose from. Each model will have 5 sets of clothes, 1 of which is gold member only. There are 9 male models and 6 female models to choose from.
Speaking of the clothes. Every model has 5 different sets of clothing, the same for each model that is male and the same for all female models. And the awesome thing is that these models were made with our coloring system in mind, so each model has colorable features (except jobs of course).
When you join the server for the first time once this update is actually released you will be prompted to select one of the new models. It is just like going to the model changer at the hospital, but FREE! And in honor of this momentous occasion all model changes are half off. So what was 10k is now 5k for the next week or so.
In addition, the clothes that are normally $2,500 for a set are now going on sale for $1,250 for this weekend in celebration of this update. Please know that all wardrobes will be reset when this update releases due to the difference in models. No refunds will be given of anything in the wardrobes.
But wait, this update has more than just new models! That's right folks. In addition to the models we have fixed numerous bugs as well as added in a few new features. For administrators we have created a new admin notice system that works like aadvert on HRP or abroadcast on HL2RP. Administrators can use the command /anotice to issue a server administrator notice.
Other features added included an improvement to the Operation Turtle Beach system. In addition to the hints when activated, it will show in the middle of the screen for around 10 seconds, and then it will also show if you are in a vehicle right above your info bars at the bottom of your screen.
Speaking of vehicles, this update brings us the introduction to vehicle starting systems. This is still just a rough system but it works. When you get in your vehicle it will not start automatically. You must press your reload bind (default r) and then it will start. But beware, carbombs will not go off until the engine is started as they require the starter to ignite for it to explode.
Some smaller things to note: The scoreboard has been given a small update. It now shows what server you are in when you press tab, both in the lower right hand corner and next to the player count at the top. Also, the RP name and job are on separate lines, and the avatar has been reduced slightly to give more for the outline of the job color. Also, the job name on the scoreboard is colored the same as the jobs colors to help make it stand out.
Also changed in this update was the actions of /advert and /it. They no longer show the name in the actual chat. So an advert will show "(ADVERT): Come on down!" and an /it will show "** An erie sound is heard." (similar to HL2RP.) In addition, /admin is now able to be used without the chat saying dmin.
There is one other thing being worked on, but it may not appear in this update. The Mayor donation box is showing a return but is being worked on to offer the best possible opportunity without ruining the economy system by an influx of money to the mayor.
There will be no overall changelog posted as this about does it. The rest of the day will be spent sleeping, then fixing it up when I wake up. When this is released another thread will be posted.
Please PLEASE download the files prior to joining the server. We will hopefully have them on a download system but it is not guaranteed. There will be a hint ingame for the next few days once it is released stating the fact as well.
