Mark XIII (DayZ) 18 Posted September 30, 2010 Does this mean we can change the sound paths too, since they are config based ? BTW, Stand up job guys. Really nice to see all these updates ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

celery 8 Posted September 30, 2010 Would be nice to know more how the config merge works. Can it read a file within the mission itself? Thanks for fixing the self fatigue issue! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dmarkwick 261 Posted September 30, 2010 [73625] New: mergeConfigFile script function Can I make the wild optimistic assumption that this development opens up the possible future feature of mod management from WITHIN the game? i.e. swap addons & mods about without necessitating a game restart? This might mean that on a per-mission basis mods can be loaded & unloaded as needed. Especially nice for complex server usage, means that different mod mixes might be possible on a per-mission basis. As I said, wildly optimistic :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TRexian 0 Posted September 30, 2010 Im testing it right now, and it seems to work nicely. I DOES support loading config files from the mission directory, if you give the second argument as false:The config change is persistent for your game session tho, so If you close the mission and start a new one, your new vehicle will still be available. This is potentially a bad thing, since if you overwrite a original vehicle class, you could break other missions using it. :( That could be f'n awesome. Now, of course, can we get a 'revert' type command? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRexian 0 Posted September 30, 2010 BTW, after fiddling around with this command, I found myself flying around in a power generator firing hydra's in the desert :p 2 things: 1 - without pics, it didn't happen ;) 2 - when will that mod be released? :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
celery 8 Posted September 30, 2010 The config merge can potentially be the awesomest thing to happen to the series in a long time (config changes without addons, endless possibilities for addonless MP), but I hope that the config will be reset after the mission in future patches.

Hellhound 10 Posted September 30, 2010 Good news from Suma for next beta:Textures flickering of objects at distance (z fighting). http://dev-heaven.net/issues/1771 Significantly reduced in 73646. Thats good to hear! It's also something that shouldn't have been there all along. It's from sloppy modeling/texturing (no offense, but gotta call it like it is :D ) when textures are interleaved with each other (sharing almost the same z-buffer space). Remedy is to model more secure (give texture-stencils their own dedicated surface) and don't stack 3d models on top or next to each other when surfaces become intertwined. But i'm glad to hear it gets worked on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grizzle 0 Posted October 1, 2010 I rather have performance improvements and fixes for the very ugly texture popup! To each his own. My performance isn't all that great but it's still good enough to allow me to enjoy the game. And I also don't hold out any realistic hope for dramatic performance increases. Ever. So I'll take an improvement of one of the most annoying and distracting graphics 'glitches' any day. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maddogx 13 Posted October 1, 2010 Wow. Less z-fighting will be an awesome and very welcome improvement! :eek: After that, all we need for visual near-perfection are these two: #1915 (apparently already being worked on by Suma :)) and #2724. But judging by the changes and fixes so far, the next patch for OA is already going to be biblical! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muahaha 10 Posted October 1, 2010 Indeed a real great milestone if the z-fighting and alpha issue has been resolved. Another testament of BIS's commitment to get the game patched and polished. Hope they release it as official 1.55 patch maybe with a bonus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
