I'm still working on it. Unfortunately, the lull in peak time never happened. And I had forecast that the usual lull would be started now. That isn't happening. So we will try and figure out a way to roll out the patch but it is complicated. There are so many people playing (over 6500) that if we auto-update the servers the reconnect load caused by everyone coming back on within the same period could, well, crash everything. We don't know if it is possible to handle such load, and I don't really want to try. So we're coming up with another plan. But it will be within the next six hours assuming that testing has gone okay.

Temperature isn't the problem... it's starvation.
rocket replied to Luieburger's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The wood situation is temporary as I couldn't get the hatchet added in time for the release. It will be likely you can eat raw meat in the next update, with an associated change of infection developing. -
* [NEW] PROTIP: Use Global Chat/VOIP in populated areas
rocket replied to HarryPopHer's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Natural selection is a powerful tool -
Make sure you have - Downloaded the latest dayz_equip - Are right clicking on the PICTURE of the item (on the right) not in the list

To those with a 'broken inventory/gear' [FIX]
rocket replied to Omega (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Also check you have the latest dayz_equip -

Indeed. See what I did there? Everyone is focused on the temperature system while not realizing their rifle has turned into a peashooting loudspeaker. Seriously though, some feedback would be good. Winchester was only ever placeholder.

Forgot to include on build notes.... You can now place fireplaces anywhere.

RE: The carebears comments. I'm a New Zealander. I crack jokes to help relieve stress. I take very little seriously, most of all myself. You probably won't find a more carebear player than me. No offense intended, but remember these forums are my home - so you will unfortunately see me swearing a lot and making the odd silly joke. I figure you may as well know me as I am, warts and all, and then you can take me as I am without me pretending to be something I am not. Do I say the wrong things some times? yes. Do I make mistakes? yes. But I live and learn and hopefully I can learn fast enough to keep up with the mod :) Take all my post's with a grain of salt :)

Interactions with OBJECTS (e.g. other players) remains the same. Interactions with your own gear, is via the gear menu. It's a bit confusing, cause it is a transition period and trying something new. Eventually we'll get a good mechanic out of it.

Stop all development; This must be added immediately
rocket replied to Doxshund (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If you guys can get a letter from the manufacturers, authorizing it. I will add it to the game. -
The previous interaction system could not be expanded. Actions cost in performance and were not designed for the method I was using. This new way allows the checking of interactions when you use the item, enabling me to do intensive things like allowing pond + well interactions that aren't normally allowed. It will grow on you, I'm sure :)

Previously it was checking the conditions every second. Now it only checks the conditions needed for that item when you right click on it.

Sickboy has gone to get some well deserved rest before I did the update. SixUpdater will be loaded in a few hours once he is up.

You need to update dayz_equip :)

The One, The Only: I HATE TEMP THREAD
rocket replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hospitals. Very rare. -
Please check build notes Context menus for inventory interactions shifted to your gear screen (performance boost)

The One, The Only: I HATE TEMP THREAD
rocket replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Its a complex matrix: Increase - Moving (faster = more) - Fire (very large increase) - Inside Building - Sunshine (midday = most) Decrease - Night (little) - Raining (lots) - Wind (some) - Water (HEAPS) -
The One, The Only: I HATE TEMP THREAD
rocket replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
HOTFIX : 21 MAY 2012 Affected addons: * dayz_code 1.5.8.2 Changelog: * [FIXED] Loosing temperature way too fast * [FIXED] Not enough wood available for spawn * [FIXED] Matches way too rare * [FIXED] Reduced impact of infection (coughing amount and blood loss, will only loose 2000 blood) -
Only download when you see a server update. Most of the admins have gone to bed.
-
Scroll wheel remains for interacting with objects (in your world) as it was intended. For interacting with individual inventory items, you right click. This caused a massive performance increase.

You Do Not Get a Cold From Being Cold
rocket replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
GUYS: It is the genesis of an idea :) Don't abort it before it's first term. Give it a chance to grow a little bit yet. -
The One, The Only: I HATE TEMP THREAD
rocket replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Its a complex matrix. The matrix has some errors I noticed after the update went out. If you have fire you're sweet. But you need wood to make a fire. You thought the tears flowed after the zombie influx.... brace yourselves.... -
GO TO A FARM: GET WOOD. YOU WILL NEED IT.
