St. Jimmy 272 Posted September 18, 2016 Heart of Darkness we couldn't extract when we had one member alive and he got in the truck. Didn't trigger anything when friend got in a truck. Maybe you've forgot to change that not everyone needs to get in if they've died? We had respawns off so only one member was alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OMAC 254 Posted September 18, 2016 Heart of Darkness went fine for me yesterday, including None The Wiser achievement, when playing solo. Mission ended normally after I got into truck. Respawns were disabled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 272 Posted September 18, 2016 Anyone experiencing this kind of an issue? This wasn't even the worst, it was horrible befor when I tried to drive in the jungle and many trees didn't render nearby. Pretty serious if you ask me. My fps was also maybe bit lower when that start to happen. I had already played couple of hours of the coop campaign with friends. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My fps was also maybe bit lower when that start to happen. I had already played couple of hours of the coop campaign with friends. Happens to me also, although not this bad ......, i play solo and fiddle around a lot in the editor. first i fought it was a mod problem so i disabled all mods , but nope, it still remains :( i tried the 1.64 RC test vesion and to my idea it was a bit less present) (1.64 RC is concluded before i could do some real testing so i can not realy say if it solved or made the problem less presen) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OMAC 254 Posted November 14, 2016 1.66 RC is 10.1 GB? Wow! Changelog seems simple compared to that big a download.. Lots of goodies, apparently! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenfist 1863 Posted November 14, 2016 1.66 RC is 10.1 GB? Wow! Changelog seems simple compared to that big a download.. Lots of goodies, apparently!Lots of goodies, true. But the big size is caused by the encrypted data in Apex DLC - most changed files have to be re-downloaded completely, not just the differences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greenfist 1863 Posted November 14, 2016 Anyone knows what this refers to?Kind of like the current simulation manager module, but a little more complex, customizable, and built into the engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeroesandvillainsOS 1504 Posted November 14, 2016 Can anyone put this in layman's terms regarding dynamic simulation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenfist 1863 Posted November 14, 2016 Can anyone put this in layman's terms regarding dynamic simulation?Objects beyond certain range are not simulated to improve performance. For example AI units far away from players are just frozen like dumb bricks. There's a bunch of new commands and editor settings to control the system. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's a bunch of new commands and editor settings to control the system. So this is why my big battle map are runing at 40FPS and enemy above 400M which i can see with naked eye are just stop, efen after i hit him :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haleks 8212 Posted November 14, 2016 There's a bunch of new commands and editor settings to control the system. Now, if they can add a setting to exclude groups with active waypoints, that will be perfect. ;) EDIT : Word of warning : dynamic simulation is ON by default... That's going to break a loooot of missions. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenfist 1863 Posted November 14, 2016 EDIT : Word of warning : dynamic simulation is ON by default... That's going to break a loooot of missions. It's on only for objects placed after the update, right? A couple of old missions I opened had it OFF on all existing objects. So it'll only break mission makers who are not aware of the new system?

haleks 8212 Posted November 14, 2016 Maybe - I didn't really checked my older missions. ^^ Still, it should probably be disabled by default; took me a couple minutes to understand why those planes I just placed far away weren't completing their waypoints, haha... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeroesandvillainsOS 1504 Posted December 1, 2016 Lots of reports on Reddit of keybinds resetting even after saying yes to keeping your old settings with the 1.66 update. Beware and back up your profile before getting the update! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
