## Version 1.05

### Summary

Version 1.05 makes all game versions released up to date at almost one level (with the exception of single player mission M13 Blood, Sweat and Tears that remains only in 505 Games retail DVD Edition).

The update comes in two versions:

* ArmA Euro Patch for version 1.04 only
* ArmA International Update for all versions released so far 1.0, 1.01, 1.02 and 1.04

It's also possible to Buy & Download ArmA English version 1.05 from sprocketidea.com now.

Main new features and improvements since version 1.04 are:

#### Gameplay

* grass is now simulated for AI and multiplayer (including larger view distances)
* STOVL support
* improved 3D iron sights
* improved satchel simulation (including detection of player and AI usage)

#### Campaign

* various improvements and bug fixes across all campaign missions

#### UI

* overall polish and streamline of menus
* new modern GPS device enabled for some vehicles and situations
* satellite texture can be displayed in the main map

#### Controls

* improved stability of helicopters (yaw now does not affect bank)
* extended support for keyboard shortcuts (you can toggle by holding any key and press second key together)

#### AI

* general AI tweak and improvements
* more realistic AI target detection

#### Multiplayer

* improved MP browser
* improved voice over net (you can hear enemy talking, direct channel is enabled)

#### Compatibility

* all versions possible to upgrade to 1.05 level
* English subtitles enabled for Czech and German versions

### How to use STOVL

```
Harrier (AV8B) can now perform Short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL).
It is controlled with "Autohover ON/OFF" action.
When activated, there is no such autopilot for slowdown that helicopters use.
Thrust vector is just rotated downwards. Q/Z keys control only airplane speed.
There are no keys for control over vertical thrust,
so it is not possible to hover up/down like in helicopter.
Takeoff procedure:
- activate Autohover
- extend full flaps (2x crtl+K)
- gain some speed by holding Q for a short while and then release it.
- once in the air, retract gear (crtl+G)
- hold Q a little longer until you move fast enough
- retract flaps as you build more speed (2x ctrl+L)
- at approx. 180kmph toggle autohover off and control flight as regular aircraft
Landing procedure:
- reduce speed and altitude same way as during conventional landing
- extend full flaps (2x crtl+K), drop gear (crtl+G)
- hold Z to reduce speed
- at approx 180 kmph activate Autohover
- pitch nose up to reduce speed, check speed, height and flight path vector indicated on HUD
- hold Z for descent at approx 2.5 m/s
- at touchdown toggle autohover off

```
