AP_2856 is now live!

Scratch · 04-20-2016, 05:16 PM

It's been a while. But with more time freeing up for us, more updates should be coming soon. For now, enjoy this update. ːkingsamː

Upped the game's tickrate from 20 to 30. This should make the game feel a lot smoother, but might introduce some weird things. So far we've fixed most issues, but let us know if there's something we missed.
Added a bunch of plasma and mine ammo in the levels.
Added hud_bShowEarlyAccess to hide the "Early Access Beta" text on the HUD. (For video or screenshot purposes.)
Added a way to find enemy triggers that are not attached to anything. Enable wld_bDebugKills and start a level in-game to find these spawners.
The RCon tool is now open source: https://github.com/AlligatorPit/RCon
Changed the startup resolution to be windowed mode by default.
Changed that only player 1 can control the menu in the case of gamepads.
Changed the default maximum quick slots count to 20 instead of 8.
Changed some aesthetics in the HUD.
Changed some aesthetics in the menu and loading screen.
Fixed SKA Studio not working for some people.
Fixed being able to change difficulty in survival when starting in split screen.
Fixed "Invalid DIFF stream" error when trying to connect to servers. (Experimental fix, let us know if there are any issues.)
Fixed console messages having the timestamps in weird places. (Also removed con_bTimestamps.)
Fixed model holder shader not working in-game.
Fixed "error 3" when saving statistics.
Fixed a lot of broken spawners in 13 different levels across the First and Second encounter.
Fixed some minor issues and exploits on a few levels.
Fixed some potential crashes in game and editor.

Furthermore, we'll be cleaning up the bugreporter over the weekend, so that we can have a clean start and a much better overview of all the issues. And yes, the bugreporter is still the #1 place to go for reporting issues: https://ap.samrev.com/bugs/

Also, kittens. Discuss.

THANK YOU

I just noticed that the bug in Sacred Yards is that water itself. Someone figured it out.

Anyway, welcome back from the dead.

It's been one year of waiting...

*Serious Sam(BG)* · 04-21-2016, 02:53 AM

It's more like the secotr. Is there a moving sector with water?

Solais · 04-21-2016, 03:10 AM

Yes, it's a moving sector.

Seanbx · 04-21-2016, 04:18 AM

Thanks for the update <3

Nevermore2790 · 04-22-2016, 12:33 AM

Let's thank decino in finding that annoying bug.

BTW, this update screws up ALL trees in TFE and TSE campaigns. Some secrets are affected since some of them have trees (I hope it does not affect ALL destructibles too). I would really hope if this was fixed in this update along with that "slowdown" bug because the update list looks not complete to me.

Scratch · 04-22-2016, 04:25 AM

I heard about it, I'll make sure the destructable trees are fixed in the next patch.

Nevermore2790 · 04-22-2016, 05:43 AM

Thanks, hope it comes not too late.

FreekNik · 04-22-2016, 06:24 AM

In fact it screwed up all the destructible models.

Nevermore2790 · 04-22-2016, 08:11 PM

Oh shit! I hope this becomes an urgent priority along with Sacred Yards (if it hasn't been patched yet).

It also fucked up animated textures and stuff, I found out that Graytown doesn't render any of the cut-scenes because of this.

I received a Moderator warning for telling everyone how it's now unplayable.

No, I believe you received a moderator warning for this flamey post:

Jesus Christ, Captain Russia really needs to chill. Cursing a volunteer software maintainer for introducing bugs?

*Targ3t* · 04-27-2016, 02:10 PM

No wonder why Ryason was a "dick" to you. It looks like the same scenario, with proper evidence this time.

Discy · 04-27-2016, 02:24 PM

Hoo-boy!

*Captain_Russia* · 04-29-2016, 06:53 AM

Yes, I know I overreacted, hard.
But this is how i get when my stress levels are really high.
Still, it's not excusable for, THAT. Again sorry dude

That's fine. As a gamedev I'm used to a non-thankful user base
