This update is in BETA form and may contain bugs and errors not mentioned in the Readme file. A final version of this
update will become available in the
future. Codemasters and Bohemia Interactive Studio accept no responsibility for problems caused by downloading or
installing this update.


REQUIRED:
=========
ORIGINAL VERSION OF OPERATION FLASHPOINT AND OPERATION FLASHPOINT: RESISTANCE. Patch 1.91 installed.

More info about upgrades and patches can be found on www.codemasters.com/flashpoint or www.flashpoint1985.com.


HOW TO RUN:
===========

First run OFPPatch_1_95BETA.exe. This will install FlashpointBETA.EXE to your Operation Flashpoint directory.

To run new Beta version of OFP you need to go to your Operation Flashpoint directory and manually start
FlashpointBETA.exe.

To do this, follow these steps:
1. Double-click on "My Computer" on your desktop.
2. Go to your OFP directory. Usually C:\Program files\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint
3. Double-click on FlashpointBETA.exe.


WARNING:
========
Multiplayer game in 1.96 version is NOT compatible with 1.91 games / servers. Notice that you can still play 1.91
version while 1.96BETA is installed - simply run FlashpointResistance.EXE or use links in your Start menu.

Note that 1.96 is compatible with 1.95 servers but we highly recommend to update also servers to 1.96


***************************************************************************
*** 1.96

Multiplayer:

- When MP mission file transfer failes, client is disconnected


1.95 specific bugs:

- Fixed SCUD animation bug introduced in 1.95

- Fixed long blue triangle artifacts introduced in 1.95



***************************************************************************
*** 1.95

Stability:

- More improvements in virtual address range handling. This should prevent error messages like "Out of memory (index buffer)

Multiplayer:

- Several anti-cheat measures implemented.

Miscancelous:

- Fixed bug introduced in 1.94, causing AI units could not take any magazines.
- Improved AI Airplane dogfighting.
- Some other minor bugs fixed.


***************************************************************************
*** 1.94

Stability:

- Various crash opportunities fixed.
- Better handling of virtual memory address space. When this space was exhausted, it could cause a crash or olive green screen.
- AI waypoint delays and other AI degradation was possible on very fast CPU.
- Command line option -nomap was sometimes ignored.

Miscancelous:

Fixed bugs:

Stability and security:

- Whole partition could be deleted when DirectPlay server creation failed (this could happen when TCP component was missing or it was blocked by a firewall).

- Testing of server-client mod compatibility is now possible.

Scripting:

- Event handler "init" is now launched on all machines in MP game.

"Yeam, but there is a real 1.6 patch?"
There is not a full version out of 1.96 yet. With the last couple versions they went right from 1.94beta, 1.95beta, and now 1.96beta. As far as I've seen, they got most of what they needed to fix. I'll let y'all know if I see the full version out.
WTF M8^?

Spoke to soon!  :lol:  As soon as I went on my regular trip to www.ofp.info I noticed that the first post I saw titled, "Patch 1.96 Release candidate". I think this is basically the same thing as 1.96 beta. But they were release in an official forum so... whatever. lol. Here's a link, check it out. http://ofp.gamezone.cz/index.php?sekce=news
