Basically what it does is getting real time weather data from external sources which goes into OT. Also now it sorta supports multiplayer. More info here:

Thanks for the info.  They never get the weather right where I am at so good luck.  Always good to see a pluin for Outerra.  I will have to check this out though.

Thanks

New patch is very interesting, but as far as the rivers that still have a lot of BUG's! I was even say - too much! Brano, how far along are you with the rivers ... what is being done with it so what is changed?










... and thanks for new patch.

Hello, fellow Outerrans.

The dirt track you can see in the trailer was supposed to be in the update, but OT patcher can't install scenery yet, so I made a thread in the scenery subforum so people can test it and give some feedback

Mud really change the driving:

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?

Some people reported an issue with the weather, so far unclear what's the cause. Might be related to the (old version of) weather plugin somehow.

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.

The ship should have collision shapes defined first. But basically aircraft will now interact with wheels with objects, in addition to the terrain.

Yes they still have a lot of bugs. The ones with artifacts on the banks will be fixed, the differences in height can be tweaked and filtered better, but some of them result from poor quality of OSM data and I fear these won't be easily fixed, except by fixing the OSM data.

Okay, would it not be better to make the rivers by hand and this to be stored so that they no longer disappear after new OT start of their place? Is only a suggestion. For my opinion, this OSM data does more bad than good, because the whole landscape looks after much worse than with OSM data.

Not sure what you mean by "that they no longer disappear".
Thousands of kilometers of rivers by hand ... not doable.

Hey guys

I have the Outerra Tech Demo, and the rivers doesn't appear,

The rivers are exclusive for Anteworld? or there's a manner to activate the rivers?

[DenisJ]

You need full version as well as earth2 chosen in the starting menu. Rivers might be transfered to demo version at some point, as some of the newest features do, but I have no idea when this may happen.

Outerra doesnt load since the last update. It freeze right after login.

[cameni]

Since the terrain data were upgraded, it has to redownload them. Initial load may be taking longer and look like frozen, can you try a couple more times and check the log for activity (if the data download)?

[M7]

I left it on the loading screen for an hour , nothing moved.

the screen shows that i still have 16.6655 version but the update log says it updated successfully to 7057.

edit: and i downloaded the 25GB earth2, still same thing

[cameni]

If it didn't update, it's usually because of an antivirus or another blocker.

Code: [Select]

INFO: Some foreign modules were found injected into outerra.exe. Note that these modules can interfere with the rendering, causing black screen or rendering artifacts. It's advised either to stop the programs or unload them.
The following potentially problematic modules were found:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AVG\Av\avghookx.dll (AVG Technologies CZ, s.r.o., AVG Internet Security), version 16.91.0.7688


[M7]

Make sense as i installed that antivirus not long ago. So now, i turned off the anti-virus ,  load outerra and get stucked in the same way.
Would i need to run a manual updater executable?
