One week ago, Bohemia Interactive wrote us that Arma 1.54 is going to be released in two to three weeks, meaning starting around the 8th of December. Today we have asked them what the status is and they told us "maybe tomorrow". Now its today.
Arma has changed the way hitpoints work. Hitpoints are defined in unit configurations of mods. Basically each uniform is a unit in Arma. This means that all mods that have custom uniforms and/or units will cause problems until the authors of the respective mods have patched them. While we are writing this, we know that RHS, CUP, MAS, Ryan Zombies and Exile are affected.
To react fast to this troublesome situation that probably affects the complete Arma player base, we will scratch some new features from our next update. Thus we will move some work away to later versions and can deliver an update faster.
Please do not ask us when we will deliver an update. We will do that as fast as we can.
