[MP] [COOP/DM] GoT Wasteland v2 (Enhanced-edition)

[joschaap 1]

A new thread for a brandnew version! - http://www.got2dayz.nl/?page_id=295

GoT Wasteland v2.3(Beta-Edition)

Why v2?

* Both to seperate this custom version from the official 404games version since 404 now also is bringing out updates. (v1.07 got released)

ass-well because it's kind of a big update, and the difference between the 2 versions is getting kind of huge :)

what makes it different?

* well the easyest way to find out is by watching this video of v2.0:

or just reading the changelog (kept this as compact as possible)

Latest version is v2.3 (1-8-2013)

Grab and/or Fork the source of the mission pbo here:

Or download ready to go .PBO files with all the needed configfiles and battleye filters for your server here:

Fantastic mission, fantastic video ... :eek:

[joschaap 1]

if there are any suggestions and/or issues just let me know, i kinda ran out of ideas aside from making a teamplay-only version later this week (no independed players, forced teamplay)

[marcEOTT 10]

is there a way to work with InitDB Mod?

Do save player inventory?

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?150293-iniDB-Save-and-Load-data-to-the-server-or-your-local-computer-without-databases!

[joschaap 1]

i personally dislike item saving but ive seen servers using inidb :)

[blackmailer 10]

joschaap, in some tickets i noticed devs mention that the "dragging weapons to inventory bug" should be fixed.

ex: ()

do you know if this is on a dev build? because on the normal 2.0 version of wasteland the problem is still here.

its probably a locality issue, since the vehicles are spawned without ownership.

getting into driverseat fixes it for now, ill have to see if i can hack my way arround it by scripting localities to player if they get near a crate or vehicle.

aha that makes sense indeed. are you aware of any ticket for this "issue"?

[joschaap 1]

there are most likely multiple tickets but the feedback tracker is horrible when it comes to searching tickets :)

just as a suggestion, is it possible to show how much slots a bag has, and how many slots items take?

would be interested in this because i always have problems fitting rpg's in my bag.

also, is any bag big enough to put the new sniper in it?

i saw in another thread: http://i.imgur.com/Mua9rhy.png

[joschaap 1]

I think thats more usefull to have as a seperate addon since it will be usefull to other missions ass-well :)

very true, tho have you tested if the sniper fits in the biggest bagpack?

[joschaap 1]

tbh no i didn't :)

As far as i know most rifles fit if you remove the attachments but i never dualwield rifles myself, so i'd have to go out and test it myself later this week :)

[hostagex 10]

I have recently downloaded this multiplayer mission onto my dedicated server and I noticed a potential bug. When first starting the server around 5-6 vehicles and 4 boats all spawn on the hill by the airstrip where the old gunstore used to be located. Along with a weapons cache. This happens every time I start the game and it is the same vehicles everytime i restart the server. Please let me know if this is a known issue or if it is just my game. Thanks.

--I noticed that the boats keep re-spawning here over and over also. Not sure about the vehicles as of yet though.. I took a fresh download and tried that and it is still doing it?

[/color]Here is a screenshot of what happens. http://i.imgur.com/Ah4bz9v.jpg

[joschaap 1]

that is a known issue, not really gamebreaking but indeed annoying.

as can be read here: https://github.com/JoSchaap/GoT_Wasteland_V2.Stratis/issues/4

im looking into it for the next version, its about5/7 vehicles and 2/4 boats each time. it seems they go there if the respawner fails to find a safe location to re-spawn the vehicle at

Spent some time on rebuilding the gunstore dialog yesterday.

this will be incorporated in the v2.1 release :)

It now has a more logical/user frienfly layout, ass-well as informational tooltips on all buttons :)

a preview of this menu system is found here:

progress on v2.1 is going well and i hope to get it out there before beta arrives :)

[blackmailer 10]

hi joschaap, my exp with the buy menu. I think you are focusing to much on the 404 menu.

most time wasted is finding the right ammo for your gun (scroll scroll scroll).

is the following possible:

go menu weapon: -> select a gun -> add somewhere near the "buy menu" button a dropdown box that displays the available ammo for that gun? with a "add ammo" button?

[joschaap 1]

thats actually a great idea! :)

Ill add it to my list :)

[joschaap 1]

v2.1 out!

publicshed the code to github ass-well as the binary pbo

May we have a look at your server.cfg and other related .cfg files you use for your servers, why i ask is that they seem to work very nice, saw someone once posted a "kit" for hosting servers, is that you may be able to share!?

Best regards and thanks for a really nice addition to the game =).
