Battlekot and his crew of Unturned modders have just released their latest creation set in the Carpathian Mountains into the curated maps pool: Carpat

Currently there are two types of stat counters:

• Player Kills: Red display, self explanatory name.

This would also have the benefit of potentially keeping progress between servers akin to 2.0.

Another Perspective:

My focus here is really on polishing and quality over quantity. Hopefully this post has been interesting! Next week I'm planning get back to work on some new content for 3.20.8.

The break was a nice change of pace and I'm now refreshed and excited to get back to work! Fortunately we found a great apartment fairly quickly, so this week I've been getting prepared for the move.

Over the next few days I'll be driving out to Toronto from Calgary and then setting everything back up there. It's my first time living away from home so it'll also take some time to get furniture and everything.

Germany Map:

The new Germany map is finally here and available to play under the Official maps tab!Germany is a new large sandbox survival map trying out several gameplay twists. It's more vertically oriented than any previous map with medium cliffs in the East blending into towering mountains in the West. It's more spaced out than Russia and has increased military presence similar to Washington including Coalition encampments. For the first time the military is using a mix of Military and Ranger grade weaponry. It also makes use of the features I've been adding the past couple months through areas like a submerged town with the most useful loot deepest underwater, cascading waterfalls, a burning crash site with primarily burning zombies, pathfinding for zombies over the city rooftops and quite a few underground locations.

Update Notes:

Map Progress:

All of the objects, nature assets and vehicles on my to-do list for the new map are now done! Though a few more are bound to come up as I go I think there's a lot of exciting stuff including suggestions going back several maps. The next step is creating the level itself: from the landscape to the decorations, spawns, lighting, etc.

I'd hoped to have some new content this update for you but ran out of time, so my goal is to work on some of the new items to release ahead of the map in the coming weeks while primarily focusing on the level itself.

One of the areas I mentioned last week that I worked on are the burning ...

Map Progress:

This week I've been continuing work on the objects for the new map, Silo 22's big brother being the most exciting, and looking through the suggestions/feedback many of you have been posting.

If you have any city/town related ideas I'm especially curious to see those at the moment, for example Washington had the new largest city with overpasses and skyscrapers and Russia had the underground metro system, thinking of a few unique ones for this map like burned to the ground in rubble, flooded district, Coalition fortified encampment - no guarantees but along those lines.

My thinking with the zombie difficulty assets is to allow a new sort of progression where the higher tiered areas of the map have higher concentrations of the more challenging zombie types

Very tangential but Silo 22 was the first object I made the same day we started planning Russia which got me really excited to release the map, I think it's kind of the centerpiece/setpiece, and these new bases have given me the same feeling again!

The goal for next week is to continue new objects, start on the landscape details and potentially begin making new ...

Next Official Map:

This week I've been working on new vehicles and objects for the next official map. The exact geographic position isn't decided yet, but I've got some interesting locations in mind and aiming for something more mountainous and vertical. If you have feedback/suggestions for what you'd like to see in this map make sure to post them and I'll be keeping an eye out!

It's still aways out so don't get hyped up yet, though I wanted to let you know what I'll be working on (do you prefer that I keep it secret or should I hint at the progress each week?), in the meantime here's a small teaser:

Creating Custom Songs

Uploading Skins to the Curated Workshop

Unity 5.6:

My primary motive updating to Unity 5.6 was for the new navmesh system, but unfortunately the navmesh data cannot yet be saved/loaded at runtime. This means it would have to be re-calculated when loading the level bringing loading times up into several minutes at least, so we're stuck with ...

Lobbies

Under the play menu you can now form a lobby and invite friends from your Steam friends list. When the lobby leader joins a server everyone else in the lobby will automatically join as well and form a group in-game.

Matchmaking

To quickly find an ideal server (especially for new players) you can use the matchmaker under the play menu which will find a server with the most players and lowest ping it can. In the options menu you can configure the minimum players and maximum ping as well as show the full list of maps.

Groups

Previously you could form alliances in-game by forming a Steam group, but this was a lot of hassle. Now you can create, join and leave groups in-game from the playerlist, and automatically get put into a group when playing in a lobby. As group owner you can rename the group and promote/demote admins to invite and kick members.Edit: Old groups were converted to the new group system when joining the server with the first player to join as the owner so bases should still be functional, but I'm seeing a lot of feedback arguing for some of the pros ...

For the moment only Unturned's theme song is available officially, but adding custom music is relatively straightforward. Export audioclips from Unity into an assetbundle ending with .content. Then create a stereo song asset from the asset browser (right click) and drag/drop the audioclip into the song slot. The theme song example file can be found in Bundles/Assets/Songs.

Devkit Objects

If your map is using the devkit you can now convert old objects to work properly with the devkit tools by using the upgrade wizard and then setting Use_Legacy_Objects to false in ...

Update Notes

Once your skin is looking good you can output it to a folder and upload it with the new UGC Upload Wizard to the Curated Workshop.

Each server instance now has a WorkshopDownloadIDs.json file which the server will automatically download those items before starting up. It works similarly to the clientside downloads, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be going ...

Hawaii Map:

Hawaii is Unturned's first Curated map and now available in-game!
It's been built from the ground up by the following community workshop creators:

Justin "Gamez2much" Morton
Terran "Spyjack" Orion
Alex "Rainz2much" Stoyanov
Amanda "Mooki2much" Hubler

If you are enjoying the map and would like to support them consider checking out the new Hawaii Mystery Box!

View Hawaii Map Mystery Box

We're trying something a bit different - this past week I've been involved cleaning up and fixing the map, but the continued development remains in their hands (although I will still help with fixes, making sure it fits the artstyle, etc) and they'll be able to upload updates to the map. You can submit your feedback/bug reports to them through the feedback link in the map selection menu.

Here's the launch post on their team's blog: Hawaii is here!

Thanks for all your submissions - the response was overwhelming! I scanned through a couple thousand and accepted many winners, but unfortunately couldn't cover them all. It's obviously been very popular however, so it will continue through the community screenshots section. I will consider screenshots following the same rules ...

Screenshot Contest:

Edit: The e-mail server seems to have died from all the image attachments, looking into it.

Are you a survivor with an eye for photography? You're in luck - this week we're running a contest to update Unturned's loading screens! If your screenshot is selected it will be used in the background art and you'll win a special in-game item!

Vehicle Changes:

All vehicles now spawn with a battery. The battery charges while the engine is running, and drains down if the headlights/siren are left on with the engine off. If the battery runs out while driving the horn, headlights, taillights and sirens will stop working. If the battery is dead when entering the vehicle the ignition will not function. You can remove the battery in the vehicle context menu, and add one by using a replacement found at mechanics/gas stations.

Caltrops and weaponry now damage most wheeled vehicles' tires. Handling is significantly impacted by lack of wheels, but they can be replaced by attaching a new tire found at mechanics/gas stations.

Additions:

Workshop Crate #1:

The first community-created mystery box is now dropping as the January 2017 Workshop Crate #1! All of the contents were voted on in the curated workshop, and are the first time you can get mythical variants of workshop items!

To open a workshop crate you will need the associated workshop key available from the stockpile. This is because the sales of the special key are split with the creators of the items in the crate. Future non-workshop mystery boxes will continue to use the normal mystery box key, however.

Translation Editor:

For anyone who worked with the old localization features this should hopefully be a huge upgrade. From the devkit you can now open the new translation editor which automatically handles several annoying tasks from before:

Misses list shows all translation references that failed to find their text, and gives you the option to add the missing text.
Delta list displays every english token that either doesn't exist in your loaded translation, or has been updated/changed since you last translated it alongside their english counterpart for comparison.
Tree editor groups all tokens in english or your translation language from any official and mod namespaces installed ...

Festive Update:

Russia has frozen over for the winter! It's cold enough that a swim is an easy way to freeze yourself, but on land you should be fine - aside from the restricted visibility! The Festive Gift Present is also dropping again with some new skins and elf outfit, although at a 50% chance rather than the usual 100% because the event is longer than previously. A few curated workshop items were accepted this week, but there will be another wave next week so get yours in as soon as possible if you're working on a holiday themed item!

Update Notes:

Additions:
Added Festive Russia map.
Added Festive Gift Present to drops with some new items inside.
Added 10x higher detail versions of every tree model and option to enable them.

Edit for 3.17.9.1:

There was a very confusing bug in multiplayer after the update came out where your character would bounce up/down while playing on a server, so I reverted the update while hunting it down. Unfortunately I didn't run into it while testing because of an option I had enabled on my server. It turned out that due to the bayonet fix the input packet was getting corrupted such that the server thought you were holding the jump key, so your player was rubberbanding to match the server's bunnyhops! :)

Update Notes:

Additions:

Added rewritten/upgraded landscape system, new tools and holes support.
Added Devtest4 map.
Added basic type browser/content browser.
Added terrain quality graphics option.

Improvements:

Improved snow and ice to glitter in the sunlight and added option to disable.
Improved landscape and nature objects to use triplanar mapping and added option to disable.
Improved rain puddles not to form under main sea level.

Tweaks:

Tweaked snowflake particle lighting to be more visible.
Tweaked traps not to count as PvP deaths.

Fixes:

Fixed server incorrectly rejecting bayonet hits.
Fixed to prevent specular highlights on foliage and terrain aside from rain.
Fixed standing ...

BattlEye:

This week we're up to ~8,600 bans, (~1,200 more than last week) so it looks like the cheaters are starting to give up!

If you've been getting an "Unsupported Modules" BattlEye kick you'll need to remove any folders other than "Framework" and "Unturned" from your Unturned/Modules directory. In the future as modules ...

Bastian [the founder of BattlEye] and I have been back and forth about integrating it for absolutely ages, and today I'm very happy to say BattlEye starts a trial run in Unturned! Because of how Unturned cheats work it should be able to completely block them, meaning all servers running BattlEye should become almost cheater free!

The trial run will last a month where we'll be making sure it's effective, fixing any issues related to it and getting an idea of the average traffic to BattlEye's backend servers. Note that pricing is dependant on player population, so fair warning: it might become a Gold Server only feature.

Most of my time this week went into debugging Unturned BattlEye [First Unity/C# game using it!] so there's not much new content, but as a result I'm relatively confident it's stable.

Serverside modules/plugins [e.g. RocketMod] should be compatible, but if you want you can disable BattlEye on your server by setting BattlEye_Secure to false in Config.json. Clientside modules, however, require that you select the alternative launch option in Steam "Play without BattlEye" because clientside modules can be used as cheats.

Note: You ...

Edit for 3.17.4.1 Patch:

Aside from fixes this patch also adds an option to enable/disable Skybox Reflections, unfortunately this is lower performance compared to the previous method, but that didn't work outside the editor.

With these updates changing so many core features I think we'll start using the preview branch again soon to avoid breaking the public version.

Additions:

Added nifty new inventions available from Doc Ernie.
Added settings for chromatic aberration, film grain, TAA and screenspace reflections.
Added settings to disable anisotropic filtering.
Added Coalition rank and quest achievements.
Added config option for Ray_Aggressor_Distance, now default 8 rather than 4.
Added skins for Hawkhound, Schofield and Masterkey.
Added first step of Modules feature.

Improvements:

Improved rain to form puddles and ripple on the ground.
Improved postprocessing to use new official Unity shaders.
Improved explosions to leave scorch marks in deferred render mode.
Updated to Unity 5.4.2p3 from 5.4.0p4.

Tweaks:

Tweaked unboxing to show warning if unknown item is opened.

Halloween:

In celebration of Halloween until the next update you will now get dropped Halloween Gift Presents filled with free costumes, and can visit the Liberator to find the crew all dressed up! The biggest wave yet of mostly spooky curated workshop items was also accepted and now available on the Stockpile if you'd like to take a look:

View Stockpile

The most exciting bit for last however: there's a new secret achievement to solve, much more complex than the first! In my opinion it's a lot fairer (no localchat puzzle), so no hints this time!

Update Notes:

Additions:

Added Mk. II achievement/puzzle/easter egg.
Added new items to Halloween Gift Present.
Accepted a ton of new curated workshop items.

Improvements:

Decorated the Liberator for Halloween.

Tweaks:

Tweaked galley to sell snack food items.

Fixes:

Fixes:

Fixed a variety of bugs with the bayonet.
Fixed to allow scaling NPCs.
Fixed using mannequin while using item.
Fixed nightvision glow after toggling cosmetics.
Fixed missing ceiling collision in one of Mooki's houses.

Deferred Decals:

It was a bit of a nightmare to get everything working with them, but as far as I can tell the only issue now is a slight lighting difference with Use_Skybox_Ambience. Now that we have SMAA I think keeping forward rendering around alongside deferred isn't worth it considering the benefits of deferred, for example these decals or screen-space reflections (which I'll be swapping ...

PCs:

This week I improved and expanded a lot of the NPC features, added the ability to have objects tied to quests e.g. fixing the map's radio towers, added the Liberator/new objects to Russia and got started filling it with characters/quests. If you do visit the Liberator there are several interesting quests, but be warned it feels very empty without all the dialogue complete/missing characters.

Going forward I'll be adding the rest of the core quests/dialogue, of which I have some ideas I'm pretty excited about like uncovering a traitor and solving a murder mystery. Then the side characters will come in to fill things out (for example the guards will instruct to visit the Captain when you come aboard, address you by your rank and keep a close eye on low rep players). I also want to give the Scientist character some unique rewards to research as you help out to reward trying different quests, so you'll come to him after doing a few quests and get a blueprint for maybe a bayonet or 4 barrel shotgun.

If you want to get started with NPCs in your own map you ...

Russia Map

The map you've all been waiting for is finally here - Russia is now available to play!

Russia is Unturned's new largest map clocking in at 4x the size of PEI/Washington/Yukon giving you tons of room for bases and exploration, and through its tiered loot progression provides an interesting blend between survival and combat. Many of the new gameplay features from the past couple months have been designed with this map in mind as well, for example the best items are hidden away in the new radioactive deadzones giving reason to loot the lower portions of the map for gasmasks/filters.

It's also been a bit of an experiment: until now Unturned's development has been entirely solo, but for this project I worked together with several community members popular for their workshop submissions to help on the map. This has proven a very interesting experience, and in the near future I'll be putting together documentation/tips/rules based on what I learned through the process so that this can be expanded to more community-created updates!

Thanks to Justin "Gamez2much" Morton and Mitch "Sketches" Wheaton for their work on the map itself, Alex ...
