Description: Hi everyone. The Code Tactics team (meaning Justin and myself) are pleased (and relieved) to share the release of v0.04 of our 3D helicopter shooter, Apollonia.Features* Chase camera - The default camera view is from behind the helicopter, rather than from isometrically above. The original (retro) camera view can be selected from the controls screen.* Player profiles - Player names and data can now be saved to a database.* Enhanced particle effects -?These are used for missile impacts and bullet to ground impacts.* Airstrike! - An A-10 Thunderbolt II can be called using L+R trigger. Includes audio.* New Apache model.* Ingame messages can be printed to the HUD.* Briefing screens - To add meaing to the madness, there are short mission descriptions for each mission (excludes Instant Action).* Three new missions.* Friendly tanks.* Player Statistics - Mission data is saved to a player's profile. This includes flight time, accuracy, deaths etc.* Post mission score board -?The score board summarises statistical data of a just completed/failed mission.* New Ammo and Health display on the HUD.* The player helicopter can start some missions airborne.* New factory building.* Existing buildings have been scaled more accurately.* Tweaked existing missions so that the player is less likely to be overwhelmed.Under the Hood (for your interest)* Particle Engine, Terrain and rendering optimisations.* Splash Screen fixes.* You can now shoot through destroyed buildings so that units inside them can be hit.* Using the sqlite database for player data.Known Issues* Sometimes there is incorrect textures loaded (very elusive).* Three Player Profile limit.* High memory usage. Beware of too many PSP background processes.* Suspend mode not supported.* There is a delay between the mission being won/lost and the scoreboard being visible. This is because of the time taken to write data to the database.* Slow load times; about 8 seconds (minus Sony logo).* Some instances of near plane clipping of the terrain resulting in small amounts of unrenedered terrain.This release has been a really tough one and has had a stupid amount of hours spent on it.We have a huge amount of stuff planned for this game; the addition of sqlite support opens up huge RPG possibilities. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy v0.04.As always, I'd like to thank those amazing hackers out there that allow us less hacky people to make something that is all-time-consuming. We also welcome any ideas or feedback you would like to share.Enjoy
