Well I haven't placed any objects. (other than a couple roads)

I just deleted it (or put it elsewhere) and went to a new place, even got the downloads, but nothing appears except for the atmosphere, clouds, space, and even the moon (which would be on the other side of the earth, which remains invisible).

Roads are in the cache folder, so just keep that and clean and reinstall the rest.

Are we ever gonna be able to do a single yellow line in the middle with no outer line?

Version 17.0.2.8079 (7 Jun 2017)

• approximation of secondary atmo scattering (better sunrise/sunset)
• combined sun/moon lighting and shadows, seamless switching (TODO better adaptive sensitivity)
• two new faster car models, WIP adjustments to physics, controls
• controllable emissive textures
• fixed joystick deadzone normalization
• fixed tree fog
• experimental x64 binaries (without UI for now)
• updated Switzerland road network

Note UI doesn't work in x64 builds because updated Chromium that's required for 64 bit builds is radically changed and it won't work with the existing UI architecture, therefore for now the x64 build can't even login and stays in the demo mode.

I guess the thing that bothers me the most for a while now and became even more severe in this update is the terrain updating issues. I tried to drive the new cars and ground becomes completely unloaded and rough just a few hundred meters away, which can be resolved only by looking down. I really hope the new rendering pipeline will address that...

[Occams Razer]

Wow. The new cars are awesome (and I saw what you were testing with them; one front-engine and one rear-engine car, and FWD and RWD versions of each), and have been the most fun driving I've had in Outerra yet. A few quick notes:

• I think the driving is being somewhat impeded by the dynamic steering, as my car would often begin to lightly skid to one side, and I'd try to countersteer, only to find that my wheels were more or less locked to center at that speed. More range at speed as well as more immediate responsiveness in the steering is a must for hard driving.
• I've generally been led to believe that FWD is more stable and prone to understeer, while RWD is more prone to oversteer. It could just have been my experience, but between the two versions of the front-engine car, I managed to slide far more with the FWD. Also, slightly dissapointed that I can't seem to kick the tail out in a RWD sports car on gravel.
• I had a few extreme slowdowns during my playtime, about 1-2 FPS. Smooth as butter just before and after. It seemed to be tied to location, as waiting for loading to complete didn't ever seem to help, and moving away from that spot resulted in immediate improvements. If there's some log or feedback menu I should be looking in, let me know and I'll track it down again.

Also, is the updated Swiss road network automatically downloaded with the update, or is that a separate download or otherwise manual change? At a glance, the streets of Bern look about the same as before, with no noticeable change that I can see. Of course, I could just be not paying enough attention.

Yeah, the roads are being downloaded the same way the terrain data is.

Can you post coordinates where this happens to you? I assume it's somewhere in mountain regions.

[DenisJ]

Well, it was in Switzerland in a place where the roads are there, so it wasn't particularly mountainy. But it's kinda interesting that I can't reproduce this situation, so I guess it isn't all too bad.

P.S. I've noticed it's actually about roads and not terrain (although the first unreproducable time was about terrain too). Texture quality does not keep up at all unless I look down.

You won't notice the difference probably. We've just fixed a couple of issues that we have found, but fixing the roads is not a high priority at least until we have a bridge support. If you want to check whether it was updated correctly, you can check if the road 'ending' is correct here (it was broken in the previous version)

or just check version of the data files in "data/earth2/_osm/+z dir (version is the last number), it should look like this:

\+z\12-61-35.5.vwd
\+z\12-61-36.5.vwd
\+z\12-61-37.5.vwd
\+z\12-62-35.11.vwd
\+z\12-62-36.12.vwd
\+z\12-62-37.5.vwd
\+z\12-63-35.15.vwd
\+z\12-63-36.15.vwd

Forgot to mention the added vehicles also have a "turbo boost" key to jump over obstacles, at least until bridges are there

Hey... was sehe ich da...Brano Schumacher der 3(?) mal alten Porsche an den Baum gefahren ?

is there an outerra version that does not require admin rights somewhere? im not able to update my installed version of 16.7057...and also the full install of 16.1.0.7503 cant be installed withaout admin

[aWac9]

Windows10? If you have problems to be an administrator you can use this command:
Start / right mouse button / prompt

Net user admin / active: yes

Not sure if you mean that?
No matter if I'm in Spanish, just look at it
()
"    net user administrador /active:yes     "
