Features

One more thing

  • Do not uninstall 1.3, because the 1.4 client will use files from 1.3 resource cache (if it is there). So you can avoid re-downloading vehicle mods etc

Holy fu... I mean - oh man... I mean... oh, nevermind. It's just awesome.

In any case - did I good think that the "PlaySFX" function will now be able to play the sounds of vehicles? Because I read on the wiki about this feature and it;s not written there anything that has to do with the vehicles...

If you can find it in that resource it's playable and the resource will give you the code you need to actually do it :)

Good job! Sadly some planned features didn't make it into this version.

And the downloadFile functions comes about 3 years late, since everyone got his own working solution for this already.

But still, I appreciate this afford.
