Build 1.7.4.4 Rolling Update

[AstroZombie 9]

You're pissed off about something that wasn't even included in the mod (it was merely listed in the changelog for a few hours)

This is about you, 2 minutes in:

http://www.liveleak....=aba_1332656862

It was listed in the changelog for atleast a week prior to today.

I also don't see the problem with leaving it upto the server providers to decide whether or not to have lights on, this just limits player choice for no other reason than one mans will.

[kero81 7]

At first "BIG THANK YOU" for this Update. =) And i have an Idea for the Streetlight Discussion: Could it be possible that players have to repair a Generator so the Lights can be switched on?! I dont know if this fit the Szenario but i like this Idea. =)

[ocelot07 60]

I sort of like the Street lights idea. As someone has all ready mentioned it will be a lot harder moving around the City at night as you will easily be seen by other players.

How about putting a NPC standing by a generator. He will keep and eye on it. If someone kills him the lights go out a few minutes later. When they server restarts he respawns and the lights come back on.

We only removed the two civ type planes but left the green military type plane.

* [NEW] An2_TK_EP1 Now Unbanned.(AN2_DZ)

* [REMOVED] An2_1_TK_CIV_EP1 Got removed during testing devs felt it lacked purpose in the game.

* [REMOVED] An2_2_TK_CIV_EP1 Got removed during testing devs felt it lacked purpose in the game.

This makes more sense. assumed it was the changelog contradicting itself.

Would be nice to see the other variants in though, just for a bit of variation.

Cheers for the clarification

Dunno why people are kicking up a fuss about streetlights, when I first saw that they were added in the change log I thought wtf.. When there's a power cut in my area the streetlights go out too. Chernarus doesn't look like the kind of place where they would have solar powered streetlights either. Plus I like the dark, it's dangerous and can really be a rewarding experience sneaking around towns. There's plenty of options if you want to see such as flares, chems, torch and nvgs. I bet most of you sleep with a nightlight on, man up.

Why ?? Cos of the cry babies that say its over powered when its not? Its a good scope, on an aweful rifle that is only good upto 300m, yet the scope zooms to like 12x which renders the gun almost useless. Its a great tool for night time operations and im a bit sad you've chosen to remove it.

Guess I'll have to manually re-add it on my private hive server, lol

Glad to see another round of solid updates! Good effort.

THIS. flares, torches and the like are in for a reason.

Ok so my friends dad recently started making solar panels systems for people, but he did work for Marconi for 30+ years and knows quite a bit. So for authenticity i think you'd need to find a book on electronics and spend about 50+ game days learning circuitry before you even start to grasp how to make a power system. by which time you'll probably be eaten or shot. So maybe a game dynamic would be keeping the researcher in your team alive to maintain progress. Or scrap this altogether and have urine powered generators like this http://makerfaireafrica.com/2012/11/06/a-urine-powered-generator/

The reason I hate that scope is because its completely made up, the rl version does not have a thermal mode just night vision. Plus I dislike using it, but when everybody in the server has one (they do, even my nan has one ffs) I feel I need one just to counter the pkers too lazy to use there damn eyes. And the guns only useless because it has that abomination of a scope on it.

And yea they removed it because of the cry babies lol who's crying now eh?

You can yes but you have to jump through some hoops for no apparent reason.

Awesome work as always. I sort of like the building/street lights being on. Its sort of creepy but I get why they're meant to be off.

[puppetmaster11 229]

Street lamps are not worth getting your panties bunched up over, flares do the same thing ...people pissed about them not being in game are more than likely snipers. Just my 2 cents.

[hohlraum 9]

Did the auto-fixing vehicles stuff get dealt with?

[reuben5150 83]

RE: L85 & M107

Thank you for listening Rocket.

[mzltv 2281]

Just wish the servers would update to 1.7.4.4. now :(

[AstroZombie 9]

I'd go with full and ignore the keys folder you get btw.

[kero81 7]

We updated our Server (DE 641) to 1.7.4.4 and Beta Patch 99202. ;-) Works great!

[ameo_koradi@hotmail.com 103]

This is good !

[klesh 2423]

The streetlight change should never have been put in, it will be removed in a hotfix.

I was thinking awhile ago that it would be cool to be able to repair the power station where all 3 major town's powerlines connect to; it's on the map already, SW of Zelenogorsk. Some kind of industrial loot pieces used to repair transformers or somesuch. You could even have it where you can restore power to the cities individually; maybe power lasts for some amount of time, and perhaps the transformer is damageable (bandit activity).

I looted an L85 of off a bandit the other day, the first time I found one. Still have it in my backpack, will it be gone when I patch? Haven't fired it yet, but i thought the scope kind of sucks.

He was sitting on a rooftop in Cherno(it was night time) and killed unarmed players. I snuck up behind him with my CCO SD.

Why did you take out the singleplayer? Its annoying as a map editor to downgrade every single time i wish to merge the files im required to. Anyway the singleplayer option could return but only with the Editor in it?
