Updates/Quick Fixes July 8 Build Version 1.4

Check your build numbers to see what is in the current build. Build numbers are located in properties and then under the tab local files.

PREVIOUS SAVES ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THIS VERSION

I changed the way the character saves in order to fix the backpack issue.

You must reset player on the title screen or have your player get killed for compatibility and certain fixes to work for builds prior to June 16.

This build may is buggy and may have quite a bit of glitches. But, I added quite a bit of content. As follows:

8 July 2015 Current BuildID 688111

*fixed running over some raiders
*added more roving raiders
*fixed being able to destroy vehicles with gunfire
*added player death dismount on vehicle destruction
*added several more explorable buildings
*added more hit points to vehicles
*more vehicle spawns
*changed length of day 60 minutes = one full day
*spaced out time of weather changes
*fixed two hand weapon use
*fixed drop backpack on death
*no more tree chopping with bare hands - go find an axe
*set up new ports and servers to address network issues
*changed some network configuration and updated network library
*animal spawn in fixed. Animals produce hide and raw meat. Need sharp melee weapon drawn to skin animal.
*simple crafting menu enabled. Not all crafting items work properly. Particular building forts. Press "V" key to open crafting menu if you have the proper resources. Press "E" key to place crafted items. Forts only save on server. Does not save on single player.
*changed the way to pick up items and search containers. A hand will appear to pick up the item. Press "E" key to pick it up. An indicator will still show that you are near an item.
*Added last save location.

*fixed bouncy raiders.

**IMPORTANT. If you have performance issues, ie crashes or low FPS please let me know and I will fix. I have not tested this new build for performance issues.

Still working. Didn't make it in.

-adding ability to cook meat
-adding button to separate UI from game world
-Roving raider AI breaks down at times.
-adding name tags for players near
-added more shelter triggers - generally if it rains u need to find cover to prevent the shelter stat from decreasing. Some covered areas might be missing this. Please let me know

Still Need to get to.
-Optional Spawn at last save or town area.
-Storage containers need fixing.
-Sniper rifles don't zoom properly in first person
-Players inside vehicles at times don't sync properly
-Sometimes weapons don't show on first person or are out of place.
-Sometimes first person and third person conflict
-At times too many footstep sounds are played
-Voice chat only works when you tend to spawn near players.
-Items placed in the bottom panel don't work after save. You have to move them back into the inventory and then back in the panel to get them to work.

Updates/Fixes June 16 Build Version 1.1

Check your build numbers to see what is in the current build. Build numbers are located in properties and then under the tab local files.

16June 2015 Current BuildID 661897

-adjusted turning radius on third person.
-fixed lost backpack
-fixed cannot fire bug.
-turned off vsync. Fantastic settings will now run past 60fps if you have fast hardware. There may be a bit of tearing and flashes. Let me know, and I will adjust and make optional.
-old versions are not compatible with new versions. On each update I change the version to start an instance only with similar versions.

I've added some features with first person that may make the previous saves incompatible with this new version. Weapons may not show up properly in first person with this version. If you reset your character or your player dies then it should work properly.

-added experimental first person. You can activate first person by pressing key "z." First person is a bit jittery and and buggy, but I think its a base to start off of. Adding first person isn't entirely compatible with third person. It seems more difficult to pick up items and movement sync may be a bit off. I can continually improve on this as necessary. This also gives me an opportunity to move on to fixing the car controller and crafting.

Known issues and still trying to fix
- Female version is not compatible with first person. I forgot to turn the female character off. Playing with the female character will have issues.
- Voice chat only works when you tend to spawn near players.
- Voice chat needs equalizer settings fixed. Sometimes, you can hear terrible echos.
-Crafting button is not working at the moment. I need to test just a bit more.
-Need to adjust player kill physics.
-Items placed in the bottom panel don't work after save. You have to move them back into the inventory and then back in the panel to get them to work.

Updates/Fixes June 7 Build 650945

Check your build numbers to see what is in the current build. Build numbers are located in properties and then under the tab local files.

7 June 2015 Current BuildID 650945

- Slowed zombies
- Doubled amount of starting ammo
- Fixed reload - reload with key ”R”
- Extended the length of day - day and nights are longer
- Brightened landscape at nights. Should be able to see much better at nights.
- Forced naming of character
- Fixed jumping conflict with text chat. Press enter/return to global text chat.
- Fixed players on server issues. Previously, the player counts were showing up on the wrong server causing you to join the wrong server with players. If you use a prior build you may see some players on a server, try to join, only to see no one is on the server. This is fixed.
- Adjusted lighting
- Fixed floating raiders again.
- Fixed physics from flying zombies on kills. Should be fixed. Let me know if this persists.
- Adjusted visual settings. The game should look more crisp. Set settings on Fantastic once you start up. The FPS should still be above 60 on the weakest computers.
- Fixed voice chat, but there is still an issue.


Known issues and still trying to fix
- Voice chat works when you tend to spawn near players. I have a network line of distance system that disables network calls when the player is out of view to save bandwith and performance. Because of that, sometimes when players are far it tends to break. I will fix.
- Voice chat needs equalizer settings fixed. Sometimes, you can hear terrible echos.
-Backing out of dedicated servers crashes a Mac on Steam client or locally
-Voice chat works sometimes.
-Crafting button is not working at the moment. I need to test just a bit more.
-Need to adjust player kill physics.

In process of working on a first person view. Seems to work ok so far, a bit jittery. Hope to have this within a week. Hope.

Let me know of more issues. If you have any issues please let me know.

I appreciate everyone's support and patience. Thanks again.

Updates/Fixes

I uploaded a number of new builds and decided to combine all listed fixes:

Check your build numbers to see what is in the current build. Build numbers are located in properties and then under the tab local files.

5 June 2015 Current BuildID 649432

-Fixed floating raiders.
-Fixed where the character gets stuck floating while jumping with weapons in hand. If you see more issues with this, let me know what weapon you had in hand when this happened.
-Fixed jump button - hold space bar to jump
-Readjusted camera centered and further behind player.
-Added more colliders to buildings that you could walk through.
-Disabled trading vehicle.
-Disabled trunk storage.
-Reduced Health on Zombies and Raiders
-Global text chat should be working - Press enter to send a global text. At the moment this does conflict with the control schemes.
-Adjusted camera clipping
-Removed some objects
-Starting inventory has pistol, bandages, food, water, and a save item.
-Fixed create character on Mac. Remember to start Mac builds locally for now.

Open it locally by right clicking the game and going to properties. Click on local files and find the .app file. For now load it from there. The steam client at the moment seems to mess up the GUI and slows it down.

Known issues and still trying to fix
-Backing out of dedicated servers crashes a Mac on Steam client or locally
-Force naming of character.
-Voice chat is not working. Sorting through this. I can hear myself but not you.
-Crafting button is not working at the moment. I need to test just a bit more.
-I watched a twitch stream and joined a server and need to fix the zombie and player kill physics.


Let me know of more issues. If you have any issues please let me know.
