**News Flash - Jan. 13th, 2014

This is a dev build. You will need to update clients to join any servers that have this. DO NOT update your server if you dont want a dev build

cool! when is the patch coming out? and where can we find the new models astronout skin so we can customize it?

The new skin is already in your clients files. it is in data => Image-Resource

This game is getting better by the micro second.

thanks

where can i find the helmet?

thats where youa re wrong, this is a hotfix for the current live build, the actual dev builds are elsewere.

thats in the next update read...

Have you tested this? Rimmer is correct.

Internet explorer is requiring a \"login\" that is failing every time I type in my password WHICH IS CORRECT. I cannot install this and therefore not play on any servers I always play on!

OMG! Gravity blocks! Schema you continue to shock and amaze us. I cant wait to see what kind of gravity toobs I can make ^.^

Try typing for the username/password dev

If it is a hotfix, it should be available through the launcher. I updated my server, and no one could join with out updating.

Anyway. The meaning of a hot fix is that the client doesnt need to update. You need to update for this. Either push this as a full update or dont claim it is a hot fix. simples

it is stated in this news flash that is is a hotfix for the current live build, and the most probable reason it isnt on the launcher is probably because it is a volutary patch which is only needed if servers see it necesary.

and lol, a client needs to update always regardless of the kind of update, even if it is just a single digit change the client needs to be updated.

a hotfix is normally a quick fix for a patch that came out a few moments ago (aka \'\'hot\'\' or \'\'fresh out of the oven\'\') that contained a bug noticed moments after initial release, but is substancially less than a complete full patch, or not worth being released as a full patch, hence hotfix patch numbers are often a Vxxx.xxxa or Vxxx.xxxb the a or b or other random number/letter indicating it is a small minor patch or fix that may or may not affect the game or software in a major or minor way.

If it is needed for a client to update to connect to any server that pushes this, it should be in the launcher, or give us admins to set the error message, otherwise people move away from the server, and that is a bad thing. After updating, I had to roll back as NO-ONE had connected in 4 hours. and the bit about moments after release? It has been over 2 months since the last update.

Just wondering is the AI accuracy option in the server config going to be fix so we don\'t have pirates/turrets that are core drills? Combat becomes more exciting when your turrets don\'t kill your target in like 10 secs

Thanks it works now.

This is quite funny, if this is the case then how is it that DayZ updates their server software on a near daily basis.
