Exp Update 0.63149365

[Baty Alquawen 3688]

Hello guys,

a new Experimental update is here. What is new:

•  fixed stability issue with refilling
•  a spotlight is not on anymore after being placed, fixes for it shining when not supposed to
•  fixed animations of holding some items in prone
•  fixed an issue with a spotlight or cable reel not allowing to be plugged back in
•  fixed a stuck character after canceling placing action

Known issues:

• there was a change in size for some items which may result in them not fit in the character inventory and their disappearance upon character spawn or disappearance of items next to them. affected items: pear, sliced pumpkin, lard
• when taking a backpack directly on own character from a dead body, it can become glitched/stuck in hands slot and not put itself on the back
•  heavy hits are missing

Thank you for playing the Experimental Branch!

What about lightning? I can see any light from a spotlight, a flashlight, headlights

I noticed that thing with heavy hits last night. My favourite opener vs infected was suddenly just an invite to get smacked in the face. I just couldn't understand what happened so I thought I was missing...

Please fix night time, I don't see the point in such a dark night if everyone leaves the server because of it. It's just unplayable!

Thanks, Baty! Quick question: What's with the "S" in front of all server messages?

It is perfect, you have to use light sources which is as it should be. That said, spawning empty handed on a server where it is night is very, very hard to survive unless you stumble on a well (or miraculously find a flashlight) before the flare has burned out...

It is just a debug message.

Had some issues trying to refuel a the ADA hatch with gasoline from a water bottle, is this no longer possible?  Do I have to always refuel with a jerry can?

We don't support Linux right now, I can't help with this issue.

Thanks, windows 7 Ultimate worked server!

Oh boy. Night + foggy/clouds + flare runs out... loving it. Cant see shit. Only hear the sound of infected and howling wind. All you can do is to crawl into corner and wait for the morning. :)

has the hotbar been downgraded? it no longer highlights the item in hand and no longer shows the stack size of the item (ammo in the mag) and it just looks uglier... I also can no longer drag items to the white area on clothes so I have to specifically place items instead of throwing them in the bag.

If you had paid attention they said it would only go to stable if there was no problems.

When is night in the real life u still can see, I dont know why Dayz have a  total dark, I can understand that many like it, but most do not like it, that's the important thing, years ago, when there was a moon you could see better at night, I understand the need flashlight but it is very difficult to find it in total darkness, we need a middle term between total darkness and vision of cat.  Thanks for all

You can see this examples:

I get that you would be able to see much more than you can in-game but if they make it as light as in those pictures, the light sources will lose their value. I do think they should change it up a little bit, perhaps make places with shadows very dark (houses, forests, etc.) and open spaces lighter.

I'm in the same boat. Want to fire up DayZ but I don't want to start building a base on a branch which is going to be deprecated.

I love the idea of light sources, I do not want to be able to see as if it were day in the night, if you look at the photos I published, they are like you comment, the open areas are lighter and the interiors of structures are dark, even it may be darker, I just want to be able to see a little more on the outside and in the interiors there may be all dark, which would give use to the lanterns, that is a problem even during the day, when you enter a house, it is completely illuminated, there are no shadows

Terrible examples because you're only showing clear moonlit nights.  Now go find some pictures of cloudy moonless nights and tell me what you see
