[SP/MP] Dynamic ISIS War System 1.80 (2024)

Well guys, after a LONG LONG period of time, I'm proud to release a TEST version of DISWS 1.70 finally!

These new features and changes are waiting for you:


- New Intel and Conversations system:

Ask civilians for your reputation and get knowledge about the current amount of civilian casualties and cleared villages (from ANF).
Search civilian's belongings to find intel about ISIS weapons caches, hostages, hideouts and HVTs! The coorporation of civilians depends on your local reputation. As long as there are not many civilian casualties they will help you or at least don't attack you - in most cases. But the more your reputation decreases, the more civilians will react angry on your actions. I.e. it can happen that you search a civilian's pocket when he suddenly blows himself up in front of you - you will have a small amount of time to flee or shoot him (but keep in mind that there's a chance that he's carrying s dead man's switch!). In other cases he might pull out a gun and attack you immediately. This will also happen when you find a weapon in civilian's bag. Anyways, you will always get a chance to react, but you really have to be quick!
Civilians are carrying a lot of useless things around, so you might come up with searching for intel for a longer time until you finally find something.
You can of course loot dead bodies for intel too!
But the most important thing is to protect the locals! Defend their vilages against the Al-Nusra Front to make them happy again, once you lost their respect because too many of them have died. When you're searching for intel while having a bad reputation, you will more often face suiciders and supporters around towns - which makes the search for intel very hard! Even when the shia and sunni muslims blow themselves up near you or any player who is currently talking to a civilian in example, more casualties are the result - and this leads to even more angry locals, and so on.... So just try to portect them as good as you can, and they will help you even more!
Depending on their respect uppon you they will answer whether nicely or angry.

The new sidemissions you get from local's informations, such like pictures (with ISIS leaders on it), notes (with intel about hostages or hideouts), maps (with places of weapons caches marked on it) and other things, will be marked on your map and also a new task will appear in your tasks list. Keep in mind that you cannot have i.e. two HTV missions at the same time! But you can of course have different kinds of sidemissions at the same time (like HVT, Cache, Hostage and Hideout).

- Arresting suspicious civilians

When you're lucky to find intel by a dumb civilian (terrorist), you will have to arrest him! A new action will appear then called "Arrest". From this point you can force the local to sit down, interrogate and request a POW transport heli. After requested you have to esxort the POW to the heli when it's been arrived.
The arresting feature might contain bugs - I haven't fully tested it yet. One reason why I only put this update into TEST releases for now.


- Fixed bugs:

*Talking to dead locals isn't possible anymore!
*Optimized overall code (a lot of!!)
*Optimized DISWS for 64bit Arma 1.68! For me it runs much better on 64bit with tbb4malloc_bi_x64 and commandline parameter -HugePages. But this can be different depending on the rig and setup. I'm owner of AMD hardware in example. On Intel CPUs it might run even better! Test it for yourself, and if 64bits doesn't work fine, use 32bits. DISWS runs great on it too! All REQUIRED mods are working fine with 64bits! I didn't test the others yet.
*MP environment fixes (enemy spawning, sounds are global now)
*Actually I fixed so many things that I cannot remember them all... :D
*Added a wide new variety of "Allahu Ackbar" shouts! Suiciders and supporters are not playing the same sound all the time! It differs.


Known bugs:

- Arresting civilians works, but there might be bugs with the heli request - needs testing!
- When a local dies while you*re having a conversation with him, the conversation won't stop! I don't have an optimum solution for that yet.

Please report any bugs you find!! Thank you!
