Experimental Branch: 0.49 Discussion

[basinox 300]

FYI, the ~18MB update just now, on Stable and Experimental, is probably just the "VC 2010 Redist" depot addition. http://steamdb.info/app/221100/history/

quick question: what does this do?

Things like Visual C++ Redist, .NET Framework, etc are runtime files that enable users to use programs that use those programming backends. So it does nothing specific, just makes sure your PC has all the required runetime files to run a particular application. I'm guessing DayZ has needed this all long, they just weren't included in the installer until now. Including this in the installer likely prevents a number of issues if you didn't already have it.

So wait, there is a thread for a new experimental in what? the hopes that it will be out soon. Bit premature don't you think, it got me all exited. Wow what an anti-climax!

It will be out soon, today most likely, the exps were down, now they are back up, if you try to go in now you'll get rejected for bad version.

Oh snap, the VC++ 2010 is a new requirement. That sounds like a fairly large engine change to

How is this going to effect people with the last version minimum requirement?

 

(Also I am praying for meself that this is not going to be one of those casses where my high spec computer cant run it for some magical reason like with Magica or Natural Selection)

Try it man before u make an opinion....patch plays so much smoother too..

[solodude23 649]

OMG you can run up and down stairs.

 

And sewing kits seem to be broken. Edit: Apparently it just took a bit. (Lag perhaps)

 

Also, I've been sprinting around with a hoodie on. Got messages such as, "I am hot" and "I am sweating"

Keep running, we must know if you die.

Should have 0 effect. It's just a software requirement.

Confirmed: Running to electro with a down jacket on= "I am hyperthermic" "You are dead"

I just tried the new version.

 

Absolutely a whole stack smoother but despite searching around 20 houses and the police station in Krasnostav, and all the doors were unopened, I didn't find a single item of loot, clothing or otherwise.

 

Eventually died of hunger but as far as the engine is concerned, much better.

 

Thinking about it, I didn't see any zombies either!!!

Anyone else not having chemlights light up?

[Ellen Ripley 71]

@bizow you might have been on a server that was fresh after booting.

@solodude23 thought that too, yet the pants had been fixed later on, was just another lag probably

 

I didnt see any zeds for the first 10-20 minutes either, then they began showing up,

Right now its laggy though, got a few desyncs and setbacks. Zeds running through doors/walls.

Patch needs tuning.

Despite that, controls seemed to be smoother yet again. Gameplay felt nice. I'm excited how it's gonna be once they've polished that version a little more.

Looks like the fire axe is useless again, killed by 3 of them suckers no hits on them with a fire axe that I could see.  Had zeds fall though the ceiling near me in a fire station, no effect on them at all where I would have been dead.

 

No problem finding loot at all, damn near fully geared too, had some nice stuff all from in and around New Novo.  Oh well.  I shall get naked to fight zeds till I find a melee weapon that takes them down..
