Chivalry: Medieval Warfare Patch 44 - Chivalry Hits the Gym

Having celebrated its third birthday last week, Chivalry felt like it was sagging in the mid section.

With this patch, we’ve taken Chivalry back to the gym for a full body makeover (and accompanying medieval workout poster).

Click here to download a high resolution version of this medieval workout poster created by artist Bastien Blavet.

This patch focuses on bug fixes, as well as the following content:

  • Eight amazing new Workshop items available in the Chivalry Customization store, listed below.
  • To celebrate Halloween we’ve got a free Halloween pumpkin hat available in-game across all classes and game modes until Nov 7.
  • A mega Workshop sale! A bounty of items at up to 75% off.

New Items

Eight Workshop items:

  • Spiked Maul, a replacement for the Maul by sliceandkill

Changes

Localization changes

  • New Russian translation. Thanks to Sergey Sukhodko! This is still a work-in-progress, let us know if there's anything wrong or incomplete. More updates to come before the patch is released.
  • Updated Italian translation (thanks again, Matteo "Aragorn-Elessar97" Cangi!)
  • Updated French translation (thanks again, Nelson "Fitfit" Danloy!)
  • Fixed the fonts so Cyrillic characters no longer use a mix of glyphs from two different fonts
  • Fixed some spots where text from Russian and possibly other languages did not fit
  • Fixed non-translating Spectator button in Team Select
  • Merged in 360/PS3 European Spanish and German translations
  • Fixed some instances of non-localizing HUD markers (e.g. Stoneshill Stage 1/Mason "Pillage" marker)
  • Fixed some non-localizing text in duel mode (specifically "you have [joined/left] the pool")

Gameplay changes

  • Making kicks better. It does a little sphere collision check at some set offset from the player pawn now. Elevation differences don't seem to hurt it as they did before.
    • Console commands to visualize:
    • aoc_drawtracer 1
    • aoc_drawkick 1
    • Old logic:
      • A) do a radius check around our pawn and gather all pawns that are within `CONST_KICK_DIST` ( = 212.0) from us
      • B) eliminate pawns that are further away than `CONST_KICK_DIST_HORZ` ( = 150.0)
      • C) eliminate pawns that are further (Z only) than `CONST_KICK_MAX_Z` ( = 50.0)
      • D) eliminate pawns that are more than `CONST_KICK_ANGLE` ( = 25.0) degrees away from the front of our pawn
      • (all pawn locations are the ​_the point at the very centre of the pawn_​)


  • Draft bonus changed to 1.2x from 1.32x

    • makes MAA speed 332 and a chasing knight 363, as opposed to the current 403
