EO 11274 Posted June 3, 2018 As is my tradition with any significant Ravage update, a fresh start with the Altis demo mission.... Performance is real smooth, those "various minor optimizations" feel major....the best iteration of Ravage to date. After leaving the burning wreck, found a safe spot to overlook the wreck site, watched 2 Bolters attacking a group of bandits, once the brouhaha was over I returned to the wreck site and geared up, I'm now ready to enter the town of Charkia.... Nice work mate! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice work mate! Thanks EO! I wasn't sure how those changes would impact other machines, it's nice to see that they do make a difference. Don't hesitate to post more feedback on this guys, I'm eager to see if it does benefit other missions as well, SP or MP. BTW, I've read that the vanilla campaigns & missions are being optimized, I'm really curious to see the results... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lv1234 75 Posted June 4, 2018 Also anyone know why when i play the preinstalled altis demo in MP, my character spawns inside the truck with armored lvl 3 vest, helmet, night vision goggles, and a map? Also for similar maps using halek's ravage intro, every time i respawn (using markers or respawn camps), my game sound stops and i can't hear anything?

UnDeaD. 82 Posted June 4, 2018 One thing that made me curious. I have noticed that some zombies don't have those hand animations, is it intended or is it a bug? For examle sometimes I see runners with the normal running animation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bad benson 1733 Posted June 5, 2018 @haleksgreat job on those animations. i especially like the crouch runner. is that a gesture made from the scare civ anims? i'm trying to find some anims for an addon free version of my project and i think you gave me an idea.

Donnie_Plays 435 Posted June 5, 2018 We are looking to add tent persistency to our server. We basically would like for players to be able to place down tents DayZ style and store loot in them, then have the loot save between server restarts. We know we need to setup a database for this but neither of us have any experience in this area. Anyone have any ideas or advice or have done something like this? I know how to set up saves and persistency for missions but have never done this on a server before. It's the one touch we want to add to our Esseker server. We feel really good about everything else we are doing, but players want a way to store loot. I do not like the idea of people using vehicles as storage, although I'm not against having vehicle persistency as well. I would prefer tents if possible. An ideal situation would be for anyone on the map to be able to access any placed tent they find, making stored loot never fully safe. This will force players to find good hiding spots for their tents and force other players to explore around the map more. Obviously we would need some sort of limiting system where one player can only place down one tent at a time for performance reasons, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The "panic" section has really interesting ones, they remind me of the zombies from The Last of Us : twitchy and deranged as hell. I'm tempted to replace some idle anims with those, or maybe add them as AIVariants (like it's done for vanilla idle anims), but for some reason I never got that last one working in the configs... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suplextron 5 Posted June 5, 2018 Mod is awesome. Ever thought about adding exploding heads and gibbing options to zombies? Also maybe a gore sound when shooting them with a hevay weapon IE a shotgun Slug to the head? I guess those are features of Ryans Zombies but the animations in that aren't immersive and the Zombies from Warfare Thai Ex are seriously buggy and the customisation is bugged.

ContheJon 245 Posted June 6, 2018 All these updates! I'm noticing some improved performance on my end too, and I'm not using a beastly PC. GTX 650 Ti BOOST with 1 gb of VRAM, 8 gigs of RAM and an i7 3770 processor, and Altis runs very smoothly. Not that I had major issues before though, but it's definitely a noticeable improvement. Even Esseker has had slight improvements! Been updating my Essker mission, it's got a new surprise over at the north western military base. My Altis mission is getting an update too, especially after one of ALIAS' newest scripts. Let's just say, beware of the forests at night ;) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously we would need some sort of limiting system where one player can only place down one tent at a time for performance reasons, etc. You can use gruppe adler persistence, its simple to use and you can save everything vehicle (vehicle content) and static object too (for base building) but be carefull set your mission with a really low vehicle spawn in the ravage mode because that will add new vehicle on each server restart. There only one bad thing with that its the fuel if you got 10% fuel on server restart it will be full, if its empty it will stay empty. https://github.com/gruppe-adler/grad-persistence You don't need to set up a database for this, just need to save it manually by writing a line in chat box (admin logged) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damsous 329 Posted June 6, 2018 For persistence https://github.com/gruppe-adler/grad-persistence/wiki The ravage tent and content are saved but the tent cannot be moved after a server restart the only way its to add the R3F logistic script to be able to move the object 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I only made it as a suggestion for Alias to improve his concept, so all credits go to him.

ContheJon 245 Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) Thanks very much Haleks! ALIAS did say that you'd done something with the script to make it work with Ravage.
