Game updated successfully but when I try to login it starts downloading wads then goes blurry and freezes.

I reset the cam position to default as I've had it crash when the cam was left in a space below sealevel but no change.

Earth data were updated so it needs to redownloaded for current position, but I've never seen it go blurry. You'll probably have to give it some time the first run, it may be downloading data even when not showing progress, but the log should be updated.

Any update for the API?
My plugin causes a crash on start.

Thanks,

I'm stuck in a update loop. Every time I starts Outerra I click login, it starts the download and patching procedure. then It repeats when the application restarts. Any suggestions?

This usually happens when the patcher can't update files for some reason. Antivirus, or insufficient privileges for the install path. Please check the eng.log and the update.log

Had that several times, try to launch it as an Administrator. Sometimes windows UAC mess up with the patching process and you end up never installing the patch.

Updated.

Yay, you fixed the default lane size... 

But the issue with trying to transition from Double Yellow Line to Plain is still there.  Plain is thinner because it doesn't have the added asphalt outside of where the bordering white lines would be.  And Erased Lines doesn't remove the border lines at all.

Also, I appear to have a permanent rain sound apparently?  Even after a restart.  Unless the wind through the trees sound distance has been greatly increased.

Great update!

I noticed that cloud altitude changed to 400-500 meters, weather settings don't change anything. Is it related to previous use of langdon's plugin (I'm not using it currently) or is it just specific to this update?

Also,

• aircraft can land on ships

Does it imply that now we have a property that allows to land them on ships or that we can actually do that right now with default vehicles? I tried to land Apache on Arleigh Burke but it just floated through the ship, and doesn't even have space anyways... I guess we need an actual aerocarrier now.

first i though was: maybe this will finally change the bad vehicle behaivor during accidents?
As i think actually those crazy bounces are connected with how car chasis collide with the complex terrain outerra has. (normally before bounces, the terrain swallow car as collisions missings, coz i suppouse only tires collide propperly actually)

As i though in the "terrain colision test" topic (next big update), now car crazy bouncing is part of the history.
I was testing with the new version and it seems i was right. Terrain colisions allow car chasis (not only tires) to touch the floor during accidents. Avoiding the crazy classic vehicle behaivor.
I was not able to make crazy bounces even driving down everest..  But people can test by theirself, maybe i was EXTREMELLY lucky.. xD

Bye bye crazy bounces (if we can confirm it). This is a historic day for outerra and for cars.
