Build 1.7.1 Rolling Update

Recommended Posts

Notes

READ THESE NOTES: PARTICULARLY - RAY-CASTING DOES NOT WORK INSIDE SOME BUILDINGS SO IT IS DISABLED INSIDE FOR ALL. PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT ON HIT THROUGH WALLS IN BUILDINGS, BECAUSE RAYTRACING IS DISABLED INSIDE THE BUILDING. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE, AND IT IS OUTLINED IN THE BUILD NOTES.

- This update will REQUIRE the beta patch, so it is worth installing this now and getting used to it. It's pretty easy.

- Server Admins: you need to update dayz_server.pbo. File has been updated.

Current Changelog

UPDATE : 17 JUNE 2012

Community Shout-out this update:

www.armaholic.com

One of the community websites hosting anything and everything ArmA2. You thought DayZ was good? Well, it is just the top of the iceberg.

You can download missions, vehicles, addons, even other total conversions. And it's all FREE!

Run by foxhound who also happens to be a cool guy

Affected addons:

* dayz_code 1.7.1

* dayz_sfx 1.2

* dayz 1.3

* dayz_equip 1.3

* dayz_weapons 1.2

* dayz_anim 0.2

Developer's Note:

* Requires ArmA2 Beta.

* Raytracing doesn't work so well inside some buildings at the moment so interiors will ignore raytracing

* Infected sprinting animation not included yet

* On respawn, your flashlight spawns in your BACKPACK. I did this because nothing would have said NOOB more than all the new players running around in the day with torches with no idea what the fuck to do.

* [NEW] Heartbeat when cursor on a player with very low humanity (heart beats faster the lower it is)

You're late.

Not a fan of that last line. I hope your open to changing that back if it turns out to be not fun.

Well, course not. The Alpha stage isn't when you add, remove and mess around with things to see if they're fun.
