* [NEW] Melee Weapon introduced: Crowbar (can only drop through right click in gear menu)

HOTFIX : 17 JUNE 2012 Affected addons: * dayz_code 1.7.1.1 * dayz_server (only for server admins) Developer's Note: * Performance issues were associated with loot cleanup not working. This has been fixed. * Each time you start a new character, you will get the gender selection dialog. * INFECTED AND LOOT RESPAWN IS STILL QUITE BUGGED. NEEDS ALOT OF WORK. BUT IT SHOULD BE MANAGEABLE NOW. Changelog: * [FIXED] Server item cleanup error (thanks Dwarden for identifying) * [FIXED] Server weighted random object error (thanks Dwarden for identifying) * [REVERT] 5 second delay for disconnecting (will need to wait till new method developed) * [REVERT] Disabling of interior raycasting (will mean some buildings you will be invisible/can't be hit in for the moment as they don't have view LODs) * [REVERT] Infected sight based on head not body direction (infected glace around alot, this meant that they had super view directions. Now locked at body direction) * [FIXED] Area not checked for existing infected before spawning new ones ("blind faith" that it had not made a mistake didn't work) * [FIXED] Crippling performance issues caused by loot items never being cleaned up (loot now cleaned up) * [FIXED] Tent pitching (Who the hell codes tent location checks TWICE before pitching? Oh apparently I do) * [NEW] Marakov spawn rate increased * [NEW] Small chance Mararov ammo will spawn on an infected * [FIXED] Converting magazines didn't work if you had MORE than one of that magazine type (now works as intended) * [NEW] Tweaked audibility and visibility values for kneel walking * [REVERT] Secret nerf of prone (you noticed) * [NEW] Can select gender for each new character * [FIXED] Toolboxes aren't spawning (classname error in loot table) * [NEW] Small tweaks to AI zombie routines to improve performance * [REVERT] New spawn timer mechanism (back to the old one for now)

Are you guys using sixUpdater? I believe this is entirely a data issue.

"super zombies that shoot goddamned lasers out of their eyes and shit live grenades to the areas around hospitals and barracks" I lol'd extremely hard.

The problem is' date=' that's a very objective word. What I am trying to do, is find the recipe for a fix that [b']I am happy with. That means a considerable amount of experimentation and things will probably get worse before they get better. Very early in this project, I read something on 4chan that has stuck with me the whole way through development: > How is it possible that this game is better than any professionally developed game to be released in 2012? >Goddamn. By gamers for gamers? Its not a product of bazillion board meetings and marketing studies. The forums has been a great source of engagement and feedback, BUT, it's starting to remind me of marketing meetings where people can't handle experimental change. Usually, that change gets WORSE before it gets better. Every update, there is doom and gloom 1.5.0 was the end of the world, so was 1.6.0. People refused to move to them. Now, we have people asking for revert. Such short memories. The build is not as intended because it is bugged. I've stated that. A hotfix will be produced and will continue to be produced until the build is where it is intended to be. Then it will be assessed on it's merits and a decision made then. I don't give a fuck if, during that process, only five people play it. I don't care if you're not having fun now, cause I certainly aren't, and the build isn't as intended. What I care about is the end result, we just need to bare through this until the hotfix gets the build stable. Then we assess it. Until then, constructive feedback is good but people need to stop repeating, and focus on responding only if they have something to add to the discussion.

1.7.1 is less than 24 hours old. 1.7.1.1 hotfix is even younger. It's good to get some feedback, I'm aware of the issues, please remember the current build is not as intended.

Locking. This thread is toxic :) Please don't start a new thread!

Guys and girls. If everyone posts the same stuff a million times, I can't find out the unknown issues. There is an unknown issue with tents, can anyone explain any more detail other than HURRR DURR they don't work.

Food Water to be fixed in a hotfix released tonight. Along with maybe some other goodies... PS. Don't stress guys! Someone people get really upset the direction of the game is destroyed... trying things out here, and things break occasionally... such is life in the zone, man!

Has anyone found any spawned food or is it not spawning at all?

Confirmed not working. it asks you after you spawn. Sorry about that :)

gooby pls tered clsd. nu tered http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13996

It's pending. We're testing it very thoroughly. When a rolling update notice is posted, you'll know it is live.

I'm not really "listening" to anyone in particular. I'm trying stuff out. People told me I was insane when I pitched them the basic concept, so I want to explore that concept and find the left and right of arc for it.

Code changes locked. Going into a closed test now.

* [FIXED] Toolboxes aren't spawning (classname error in loot table) * [NEW] Small tweaks to AI zombie routines to improve performance * [REVERT] New spawn timer mechanism (back to the old one for now)

It's bugged. Those who selected female reverted back to male. Until this is fixed, everyone can select their gender. Fixed in a future update.
