Temperature – feels better, weather has been quite bad while I've been on the test server but not unmanageable. Only had to make a fire twice to boost my heat levels before sneaking into towns to loot (night and day but in heavy rain). So long as I am moving there has been no problem keeping my heat in the safe area. Being in a building quickly helps restore heat. Not had any problems finding matches, wood or heat packs.

 

Loot in general is a lot better with most items a lot easier to find, although some bits seem quite rare still like water bottles – not seen one so far. Alice packs might be a touch too common atm. Not been able to match the attachments I have been finding to a gun they fit on yet.

 

New position for chem light is great! Makes playing at night a lot easier.

[r4z0r49 4761]

Depending what feedback comes back over the weekend ill push this to stable on Monday. I need to get as much feedback as i can for the fence system good or bad i need to know how ppl are finding them to use/place/destroy, Defend against, attack against.

[Detoeni (DayZ) 6]

_{On Kichilron's server I've start building a base on the hill overlooking cherno 062 124. There is a tent there with most of the bits needed to build or take down fences if folks want to have a play but you'll need your own axe.}

_{Could not find a padlock, only visited castles 4 times so far....}

 

_{Disregard my comment about water bottles, found five after posting....}

upgrading an m16a2 to m16a4 - I've seen aim sights for m14 but not m16, but I think I saw a cco that did not have a weapon listed(thought at the time it might have been for the cross bow).

Is that what I need for the first m16 upgrade before adding the acog?

Hey, suggestion: Enable side chat for easier co-operation between testing players.

 

Cheers.

Okay so there's two test servers?  I spent 2 hours on 108.174.57.160:2302.  Don't have all the stuff yet to build fences.  Should I stay on there or go to the Musty server?

^{There is a tent where I said with pickaxe, hammers, metal sheets and the build manuals. Also a few other bits, food and water. There are rocks and pump near by + easy access to cherno for more axe.}

^{I got carried a way earlier and finished the base, but you welcome to add to it or smash bits off.}

 

^{With the changes to nails its much easier to get the base bits but keeping your self supplied is still no small undertaking.}

^{only gripe so far is the snapping point on the gates is about 18 inchs from the posts so you get a gap if you use it}

One is mustys the other is one provided by fragnet as part of the sponsorship. You can use any you like they should be running the exact same version.

 

If someone can check gate breakin plz.

Idea: I remember a test server that you R4Z0R and Skydive set up some time ago that had the option to spawn stuff in. Padlocks are pretty rare to find so something like that could make testing quicker, I will be testing on fragnet (108.174.57.160:2302) server today as well.

had a go last night with Detoeni, although rather drunk it was thoroughly enjoyable lol. 

Tried wrecking a wall on Detoeni's base when he asked me to do so, with hatchet. There was no mousewheel option to destroy and hacking at the wall didn't seem to be doing much (was only doing it for a minute or two but no damage to wall.

[r4z0r49 4761]

Yea hacking the wall will take a good amount of time. Ill try getting exact numbers later today. We have fixed a few other items this morning from the dev build.

If you contact me on skype ill send the patch files.

 

PS the fragnet server now has a dev mission to allow you to spawn stuff

That will be the case on the new server set up by R4Z0R. Might be a good idea to have them either share Databases or (will do anyway) set up the Dev-Menu on me server.

Sent files to Eugen for stable release.

[r4z0r49 4761]

ok so 1.8.5 has been released on steam under the beta branch but its pretty useless for most players until we can work out whats going on with the updates so they always stay the same in a simple format of development and stable i'm going to pull the 1.8.5 update thread until i get some more notice from Eugen on whats going on with steam.

 

Make sure to opt out of all betas unless your using the development branch.

 

Stable release's should be version 1.8.4.1 (opt out of betas)

or

Development branch should be version Dev-725ecb9 (development! - public dev branch)

 

Sorry guys this is out of my hands.
