The weapons designated 'Rifle' and 'Assault Rifle' have been changed so that all rifles that use a full power battle rifle cartridge (7.62x51mm and 7.7x56mmR, for example) are now designated as 'Rifle'. He has done a fantastic job on making the AI more intelligent - making for a much more enjoyable experience.Ī major modification to the combat system is implemented in v1.11. I highly recommend using this executable to play Arulco Vacations. V1.11 of Arulco vacations includes Sevenfm's latest Experimental Executable at the time of this release - ja2_7609en_AI_r946. I have not tested this with any other release, build or update. Using any other release, build or update is done at your own risk. Use a clean install of JA2 1.12 with the stable v1.13 r7435 b7609 installed on top of it overwriting all files, and v1.11 of Arulco Vacations extracted over all of that, overwriting all files again (only one file will be overwritten - the 'ja2.ini' file, which sets the new game options). The two (2) new merchants (Etta Smith (Balime) and Ray (San Mona) have had their inventories greatly expanded with rare items. All the information specific to each character regarding recruitment is available in the included NewRecruitables.txt in the Docs folder, the Data-AV folder, and the main game folder (just in case you have trouble finding it). Plus, the following characters are new to the M.E.R.C. In addition, the following characters have been added from other mods: Rude Dog (from Urban Chaos Mod), Jerry Melo (from JA2.5 UB), Alberto Ruiz (from Vietnam SOG '69), and Jane Shepard (from Flugente's additional characters). All total, Arulco Vacations includes the following characters who are now recruitable: Darrel Hick, Alish 'Perko' Perkopoulos, Angel DaSilva, Maria DaSilva, Joey Graham, James 'Skyrider' Bullock, Fred Morris, Matt Duncan, Oswald Johnston, Calvin Barkmore, Carl Tercel, Brenda Drake, Doreen Harrows, Annie (Matron of Mayhem), Chris (Imposter), Joe (Tiffany Eddie), and Jasmin (T-Rex). For v1.10 Doreen Harrows is now recruitable after you finish the Factory Children quest (if you don't kill her!).

There is a text file included in the download - NewRecruitables.txt - that details the recruiting interaction with all the additional recruitable characters in Arulco Vacations.

Arulco Vacations v1.11 is a massive tweak of JA2v1.13 r7609.Ī note on the new recruitable characters:
