XAM v1.4.05
Quote Snake22000:
We are back at it again, after being away for too many weeks, XAM is back in a 1.4:05 version, featuring:
- Gameplay balance.
- Bugs corrections
- Main stability and performances improvement .
- Content added.
This version works with 1.09 Beta patch for Armed Assault ! We suggest to download this update needed to improve stability and performances.
An ArmA 1.08 compatible version, is on the way and will be here soon, but it's a less recommended version.
Thanks to all those who report about performance and bugs, to HLW Team, to Armed Assault.info and Armaholic for help and mod hosting.
So I will invite you to download this version, the fruit of a long debugging and enhancement work.This,you will not regret.
HAVE A NICE XAM PLAY !
