Build Notes

HOTFIX : 19 JUNE 2012

Affected addons:

* dayz_code 1.7.1.5

* dayz_equip 1.3.3

* dayz_weapons 1.3.2

Developer's Note:

* A designation of [NEW] doesn't necessarily mean a new feature, 4chan, it means a change in operation not directly related to a bug. Could be for better performance or rebalancing.

Changelog:

* [NEW] Infected raycast for line-of-sight less often (improves performance)

* [FIXED] Infected can see through terrain ( https://dev-heaven.net/issues/33787 )

* [FIXED] Raycasting being taken from wrong body position (ensured it is from eye level)

* [FIXED] Infected sometimes spawn close to a player (previous check once, now up to ten times)

* [NEW] Infected bodies will despawn after 5 minutes of their death (improves performance)

* [FIXED] Sometimes infected will stand still after loosing line-of-sight ( https://dev-heaven.net/issues/33715 )

* [FIXED] Can dupe tent's by right clicking (forgot to close the window)

* [FIXED] Poor performance caused by infected search behavior (MAJOR performance increase during closed testing)

* [FIXED] Audibility is far to high (completely rebalanced, in line with how it was in previous updates)

* [FIXED] Can dupe food during cooking if click really fast (now you cannot)

* [FIXED] Trying to pick up a hatchet would create fake ammo (now will not)

* [FIXED] Hatchet takes up too much room (can now be transferred between toolbelt and primary slot through gear action)

* [REVERT] Hatchet now collected as an Item (toolbelt) and can be equipped to primary (gear action)

* [NEW] Flashlights can now be packed to toolbelt also (gear action)

* [NEW] New players will spawn with flashlight added to their toolbelt not backpack

* [FIXED] Infected sometimes not inspecting thrown items (they will walk to the location of a noise, 20-40m away)

* [FIXED] Unlimited Infected spawning (now has a cooldown enabled so it won't spawn too many at once)

* [FIXED] Melee weapon sounds non-existent/terrible (now has placeholder sounds)

No Server File? So Tent-Wipe is going to be done manually?

[Xyro 9]

Is the mirror updated yet (So far the answer is no)? Me and SixLauncher don't get along, I prefer to install files manually.

Edit - Damn it Wus! I think you put up the mirror as I was typing this out :P

[Farsight (DayZ) 314]

Any way to look into fixing this?

USE TORRENT!

iam seeding with Vserver 1Gbit

[hedrex 2]

When downloading the torrent i only want to grab the necessary files, ie. the two files for each affected add on, so do i need to get 'dayz.pbo' and 'dayz.pbo.dayz.bisign' every time or is that unaffected?

[Kashus 22]

Just so I am clear. This patch is not being done through six updater, but through a torrent?

[eroth 2]

Will this work with sixupdater or no?

Yes, at least with uTorrent you can select which files to download and which ones not.

Yes

[Cormac McCarthy 15]

I'm getting no seeds or peers on the torrent.

Got it on my seedbox and would love to help provide bandwidth.

Has anyone else got the torrent working successfully?
