NFG Dynamic

1.6.40

Chernarus handheld map repair: restored map configuration registration and the actual terrain background; calibrated 15360 m map extent, shared marker/click alignment, closest zoom and pan speed. Bounded texture recovery and cached local roads/place names without external API or hidden contacts. No campaign reset. In-game visual acceptance remains for user testing.

1.6.39

NFG Dynamic 1.6.39 - Surveillance and theater operations

- Drone target-centred orbit and restrained satellite-style pass, with hold, wheel zoom and arrow-key camera movement.
- Owned full-resolution white-hot IR, local render-quality/resource warmup improvements, actual camera telemetry and availability-gated handheld controls.
- Weather-aware visual acquisition with a configurable field/map reconnaissance fallback; menus remain accessible.
- Shared command snapshots, target references, request IDs/status/timestamps and an operations board. Compact status supports small native TDL displays; no GRS-only watch video support is claimed.
- Approximate acoustic battery reports develop into confirmed targets through observation or collected documents.
- Physical ammunition convoy delivery, capture and denial affect the finite enemy response budget. Captured supplies remain usable; damaged cargo vehicles can be repaired, towed or unloaded instead of failing on damage alone.
- Recoverable intelligence carriers, evidence-linked officer/civilian followups, preset-scaled quiet periods and delayed, expiring enemy contact reports based on actual observers.
- Local mission outcomes shape aftermath. Civilian routes avoid reported fighting and resume gradually after quiet; cleared fires subside into residual smoke.
- Expanded source-reviewed modern Russian roles, neutral civilian vehicles, small contextual props and unarmed aftermath vehicles. Existing faction, crew, budget and unsafe-vehicle exclusions remain.
- Corrected folded-paper-map root identity for the current map override dependency.

No campaign reset, friendly QRF or physical friendly combat aircraft introduced. Third-party content is referenced from its original providers, not repacked. Thanks to the existing dependency authors, including RHS, TacticalFlava, Tactical Data Link, CIE Thermal and the theater vehicle/prop creators.

This is a test release. Real driving, multiplayer/JIP, sensor appearance and long-session acceptance still require gameplay testing. Resource warmup does not create distant actors that the server has not replicated. Local aftermath observations are session-local, not a promise of persistent world damage.

1.6.38

NFG Dynamic 1.6.38 - Command feed and support repair

- Added the NFG scenario map-image fallback for current Chernarus Minus and refreshed cached map drawing when returning from camera channels.
- Separated command-screen, ATAK, deployment-overlay and GM preview image resources from physical materials, preserving the existing NFG artwork.
- Added visible support-request and rejection feedback, including Kh-55. Unavailable actions no longer send unconfirmed strike requests.
- Corrected support-effect capacity accounting and one-time completion/cleanup. Invalid targets or full effect budgets are rejected before a flyby cue.
- Added pre-spawn checks for incomplete ambient vehicle resources and updated small, medium and large wreck-fire audio references.
- Corrected persistence-mode startup messages without changing saved campaign data or fallback policy.

This is a repair/test release. Actual multiplayer display, audio and strike-effect acceptance still requires live testing.

1.6.37

NFG Dynamic 1.6.37 - Command feed tracking and sensor status

- Visual tracking keeps a last-known position when the selected contact leaves the actual camera view.
- NV/thermal status and active buttons reflect the applied camera mode; unavailable effects are clearly marked with day fallback.
- Corrected the sensor-cycle hint to include Map after Thermal.
- Retains the ATAK-radio issue fix, clickable sensor cycle, NFG command dashboard and shared TV from 1.6.36.

GRS watch and GRS patch integration remain temporarily omitted because their Workshop dependencies are unavailable. RHS patches and flags remain included.

1.6.36

NFG Dynamic 1.6.36 - ATAK handheld entitlement repair

- Fixed display-only equipment incorrectly preventing a player from receiving the default ATAK-capable radio.
- Existing ATAK-capable radios still count when switched off; duplicate-spawn and inventory-transaction safeguards remain intact.
- Fixed the clickable sensor/view-cycle button to follow the N-key cycle, including returning from map/boot to the aerial feed.
- Retained the NFG map/drone/satellite dashboard, contact tracking, shared TV, handheld/ATAK toolbar connection and support improvements from 1.6.35.
- GRS watch and GRS-specific patch integration remains temporarily omitted; NFG RHS patches and flags remain available.

Live-test build: multiplayer viewing, native screen appearance, support effects/audio and dedicated-server acceptance remain under test. Player airlift and genuine IR visibility remain future work.

Thanks to Colton1070 for Tactical Data Link and Heine for the placeable display assets, and the creators of the existing dependencies.

1.6.35

NFG Dynamic 1.6.35 - Command dashboard live-test update

- Added an NFG-branded command dashboard with map, drone and satellite views, camera controls, coordinates and day/night/thermal selections.
- Added friendly/enemy contact filters, contact selection, follow/release and copying contact locations into separate support targets.
- Added an operator-controlled shared TV broadcast with nearby passive viewing, independent personal views and automatic control-lease release.
- Connected the NFG handheld and Tactical Data Link ATAK toolbar to the command dashboard.
- Fixed NFG Essentials search registration and retained the existing placeable filter.
- Improved scripted-support effect replication and mortar incoming-cue cleanup, ambient placement rules, immediate AI activity and AI-airlift recovery handling.
- Preserved occupation-spawn safeguards and orphan recovery.
- Temporarily omitted GRS watch/patch integration because Workshop could not resolve those dependencies. NFG RHS patches and flags remain available.
- Removed obsolete source-art backups and developer-only tools from the download.

Live-test release: multiplayer screen sharing, device handoff, tracking, visual sensor modes and support effects/audio still need in-game acceptance. Airlift remains AI-only; IR laser/strobe visibility is not yet included.

Thanks to Colton1070 for Tactical Data Link and Heine for the placeable display assets, and to the makers of the existing server dependencies.

1.6.34

1.6.34 - Persistent-world AI recovery

- Added bounded recovery for the known stack of invalid platoon-leader duplicates restored from the affected saved session.
- Cleanup checks the exact affected unit and location, excludes player-controlled characters and valid AI, and removes duplicates in small batches.
- Retains the missing-agent spawn-loop guard and modern Russian mission pools from 1.6.33.
- Other saved world entities and player equipment are preserved.

1.6.33

1.6.33 - Mission AI stability hotfix

- Blocked group members with missing AI templates before spawning, preventing repeated platoon-leader bodies and runaway group expansion.
- Synchronized mission enemy selection with the configured modern Russian faction.
- Filtered mission combat-personnel pools to supported modern Russian units while preserving civilian lists.
- Added a bounded fallback for automatic crashsite locations and corrected completed crashsite intel tracking.

This is a targeted stability update; further command-screen, equipment and ambience improvements remain in development.

1.6.32

NFG Dynamic 1.6.32

- Added NFG Essentials GM browser filter with 61 registered placeables and equipment variants, retaining the standard browser labels.
- Improved searchable names for command screens, flags, radios and enemy support modules.
- Command-screen video now renders at native widget resolution.
- Removed obsolete Wolf building-pack and separate GM-scenario dependencies to avoid the Chernarus building-component conflict.
- Guarded deferred RHS radio registration when preview objects are deleted.
- Ambient placement now tries other eligible areas when the first location fails.
- Ambient sound intensity now controls event spacing directly.
- Added rate-limited diagnostics explaining blocked scenery placement.

1.6.31

NFG Dynamic 1.6.31

- Added command-screen map, drone/satellite views and support controls.
- Added a resource-limited enemy commander and threat grid.
- Added hostage follow/free actions, collectible intel and mission follow-ups.
- Added configurable wrecks, casualties, props, ambient sounds and ruin effects.
- Fixed invalid vehicle/civilian references, failed-mission handling and parachute-map cleanup.
- Fixed script dependency and action-definition errors.

1.6.29

1.6.28

NFG Dynamic 1.6.28 - operation retention, modern Russian opposition and Chernarus compatibility

Unfinished DARC ground operations remain active when players leave the area or the squad is eliminated. Timed search objectives retain their specified deadline. The previous periodic deadline reset has been removed.

Completed and failed operations retain their mission-owned aftermath for the configured mission cleanup period, with a ten-minute minimum. Nearby personnel prevent cleanup after that period, including near displaced mission entities and defenders. Explicit Game Master cancellation remains immediate. Repeated completion cannot duplicate provider loot, rewards or outcome callbacks.

DARC helicopter transport retains its existing flight lifecycle. Mission-specific intelligence handover, casualty recovery, logistics, living-world casualties and restart persistence remain separate work in progress.

Removes the obsolete Chernarus GM and Wolf's Building Pack dependencies from NFG. The current Chernarus terrain continues to use Minus Building Pack, avoiding conflicting older building definitions after the terrain dependency update.

Synchronizes DARC enemy requests with the configured RHS_AFRF faction. Its standard personnel roles use the existing modern VKPO candidates; unavailable required roles prevent an enemy operation instead of selecting mixed fallback troops. Friendly helicopter faction selection and civilian objective characters retain their existing behavior.

1.6.27

NFG Dynamic 1.6.27 - mission command reliability

No automatic AI and Command-Placed Tasking now block unsolicited DARC missions, including static admissions and queued starts. World intensity changes preserve the selected mission permissions. Explicit Game Master requests remain supported.

Scenario Properties commits all settings before its one-shot mission action, obtains the requesting GM camera's ground target, and validates the selected operation. Roadblock Clearance uses a nearby valid road and queues while navigation data loads. NFG map tasks bind their actual title for GMs without a selected faction. Command results remain visible in the GM message log. Failed DARC location admission no longer triggers NFG's uninitialized-briefing exception.

Requested cleanup continues when Dynamic World is disabled. NFG vehicle retirement stops AI reboarding, clears occupied compartments safely and removes empty groups/controllers. The known incompatible T90M Proryv3 AI variant is excluded from NFG discovery.

Separate cleanup controls are present for NFG mission-owned aftermath and ambient scenery. Broader DARC mission lifecycle, mission-specific delivery/extraction, live feed, handheld, wearable insignia and expanded world dressing remain work in progress.

1.6.26

[NFG] Dynamic 1.6.26 Game Master support and mobility reliability

Removes the incompatible Realistic Combat Drones map override, retires the duplicate tracked-object gate and stale server AI ceiling, keeps the delivered NFG flag, parachute and A-10 fixes, and preserves latest-Workshop startup with the 16 GiB dedicated-server ceiling.

Existing mission execution, convoy and helicopter support, server-authoritative spawning, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance safeguards remain enabled.

Existing mission execution, convoy and helicopter support, server-authoritative spawning, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance safeguards remain enabled.

1.6.22

[NFG] Dynamic 1.6.22 Game Master support modules and cleanup reliability

Adds the directed A-10 GAU-8 strafe-run module to the Game Master MODS browser, adds reliable Delete All Dynamic World cleanup with queued air-support cancellation, improves grounded corpse and fire-scene dressing, and preserves latest-Workshop startup with the 16 GiB dedicated-server ceiling.

Existing mission execution, convoy and helicopter support, server-authoritative spawning, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance safeguards remain enabled.

1.6.21

[NFG] Dynamic 1.6.21 objective-anchor defense

This update keeps one primary mission defender anchored on its defend waypoint while perimeter groups retain local patrol behavior. It removes the scripted Search-and-Destroy order from the objective anchor without changing convoy, helicopter escort, QRF, or awareness behavior.

Existing crash guards, server-authoritative spawning, transport convoy capacity, physical vehicle and mortar validation, Workshop prop fallbacks, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance limits are preserved.

1.6.20

[NFG] Dynamic 1.6.20 crash guard and Mission Gen recovery

This update prevents automatic troop cargo from entering unapproved light-vehicle compartments after the UAZ native crash path, restores Mission Gen access from the free Game Master camera, and adds a local operator control helper.

Existing server-authoritative spawning, transport convoy capacity, physical vehicle and mortar validation, Workshop prop fallbacks, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance limits are preserved.

1.6.19

[NFG] Dynamic 1.6.19 mission execution and release parity

This update makes the complete existing mission catalogue reachable through automatic tasking when the corresponding world systems are enabled. It keeps helicopter search operations Mi-8-only, uses approved civilian and non-combatant Russian recovery personnel without arbitrary armed fallbacks, corrects road/developed placement, and keeps convoy operations active while destination retaliation is pending or alive.

Existing server-authoritative spawning, physical vehicle and mortar validation, Workshop prop fallbacks, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance limits are preserved.

1.6.18

[NFG] Dynamic 1.6.18 mission execution and release parity

This update makes the complete existing mission catalogue reachable through automatic tasking when the corresponding world systems are enabled. It keeps helicopter search operations Mi-8-only, uses approved civilian and non-combatant Russian recovery personnel without arbitrary armed fallbacks, corrects road/developed placement, and keeps convoy operations active while destination retaliation is pending or alive.

Existing server-authoritative spawning, physical vehicle and mortar validation, Workshop prop fallbacks, persistence, cleanup, faction filtering and performance limits are preserved.

1.6.17

Fixed the AI waypoint recursion crash.
Open-ground casualties now use laying bodies.
Sitting bodies only spawn against vehicles, trees, or buildings and face away from them.
Added blood spots around casualties.
Fires now spawn only on confirmed wreck sites.

1.6.16

NFG Dynamic 1.6.16 stability update

Stability: deferred tracked-entity retirement with occupied-vehicle protection; correct cleanup rules for NFG placeable modules and waypoints; exclusion of the malformed T90 Full variant and unsupported KamAZ5350 automatic AI driving; compatible vehicle fallback with a bounded actual-spawn budget.

Runtime: continuing infantry routes and recovery ordering; native physical mortar support with finite carried ammunition, actual-shot tracking and terminal cleanup; existing QRF, airlift and tactical-feed integration repairs.

Content: varied casualties, blood and preset-limited warzone scenery; revised flags, patches and signs; corrected British editor registries. Deployment selection and mission intelligence/return/follow-up safeguards are included.

Validation scope: dedicated unattended checks and decoded package-content verification. Joined-client visual, interaction, mission-completion and restart/rejoin acceptance remains outstanding.

1.6.15

NFG Dynamic 1.6.15

- Adds the Commander FEED live operations display.
- Separates mission-awareness and world-awareness controls into their correct Game Master tabs.

1.6.14

Removes the obsolete A-10 Thunderbolt II / RVX Crash Fix / RVX_Core dependency branch after the latest WCS 8.1 update made RVX_Core fail Game-script compilation. Also removes the now-unused Awenzj Flight Model dependency. Prontos Parachutes remains because NFG deployment still uses it. The server mod list remains versionless for automatic latest Workshop revisions.

1.6.13

Adds Modern Civilians and FF Civilian Variety integration: CIV traffic now discovers 131 eligible civilian vehicles; 29 Modern Civilians variants are explicitly admitted for 58 total civilian characters; legacy USSR/OPFOR characters remain excluded.

1.6.12

Post-1.8 recovery: safe queued entity cleanup; preset-scaled no-AI burning-wreck atmosphere; standalone H-60 family admitted to BLUFOR air pools; rebuilt NFG flags, real-world rank insignia, role patches, cut-out shields, and wearable national flags at correct proportions.
