We talked about it already in this topic, but now it's done.
We made a fix so that you wont have arti's pointing the other way when in reality they are firing at you. This is a clientside only fix so you won't need to have a server that will support it.
Just download, unzip, and play Smile

You can download the files here:
http://blackintel.igotfree.com/index.php?page=downloads
And a small preview movie.

Enjoy!

Edit:
I suggest reading this topic now.

FYI, the scripts.dll version is 2.9.2, with some small code to load blackintel.dll, which includes the fix. The bhs.dll is a clean 2.9.2 version only in the archive to make it easier to install. Source code of the scripts.dll is not that interesting, I cannot supply the blackintel.dll source code but if anyone is interested (for example modding teams) I can give some details on applying this into the game2.exe directly. The reason for it to be in a separate dll and not directly in game2.exe is simply that renguard accepts it this way. It could be done into game2.exe directly.

Have fun with the fix Smile

well, I need a place to hook my scripts in, when there will be newer scripts.dll versions I'll probably update it. It's not a hard change. Just getting the original scripts.dll and adding a few lines. Maybe the fix gets included in bhs.dll or something, then the extra dll isn't needed anymore too.

Unfortunately we cannot make this in bhs.dll that's something John Wil needs to do, as we don't have the bhs source code. Neither can we decide wheter or not it will be in CP3 since we don't have any control about that.

If there are any fixes by blackintel (either server side or client side) that are good enough/work right, I will definatly be interested in putting them into bhs.dll.

Well, the old situation the client updates its own turret every frame and the other turrets were updated when you got a server message (net update rate). And the amount of rotation is determined by the frametime, which not acurate when you don't get an update every frame, which doesn't happens when the server sends the update.
In the new situation the both turret rotation updates have been replaced with only updating the target position (where the turret should point at after it has rotated). The rotating of the turret happens every frame for every vehicle.
