1.0.3-open-beta-4 | OUT NOW

The 1.0.3-open-beta-4 is now available in the launcher. The open beta is very different from the public. Many things have been changed. It is therefore very important that you follow these instructions:


1. Civil traffic:

With the 1.0.3-open-beta-4 also the civil traffic returns. Since the civilian traffic spawns and despawns again and again, it can cause the ground bug to occur more often. If the bug should occur more often again, you can reduce the population density in the settings. In general, it must be said that we are now, except for the changes and conversions, back to the state of the Public. Please fill out the form and give us feedback. But it is always important: Does the 1.0.3-open-beta-4 run better than the Public? That is the only thing that counts. That the 1.0.3-open-beta-4 probably doesn't run as nice as the 1.0.3-open-beta-3 is clear, because there is now civilian traffic again. But if the 1.0.3-open-beta-4 runs better than the Public, which we hope, then it fits :)


2. Weather:

Some people have told us that the ground was often gone when the weather changed to "Storm". The weather "Storm" contains many weather animations including lightning. These were deactivated. Maybe that helps a little bit too.


3. VEHICLE RESPAWN:

In the Public, vehicles are respawned after engaging. In the 1.0.3-open-beta-2 this was changed. Vehicles are now no longer respawned. Your feedback has shown us that this has led to a significant improvement. Therefore, this change will be kept.


4. TOW TRUCK / MORTICIAN:

The tow truck / mortician logic has been completely rebuilt in the 1.0.3-open-beta-3. They no longer spawn when you call them, but are located as fixed units on the map. There are 8 tow trucks in total. The number of morticians has been increased to 3. They can be alerted via the alert menu, or, as usual, by right-clicking a police officer on a vehicle or an emergency doctor on a deceased person.


IMPORTANT: If a player has no tow truck or mortician, an error sound will occur.


The assignment in the MP is as follows:

TOW TRUCK 1+2: PD01 | TOW TRUCK 3+4+5 = PD02 | TOW TRUCK 6+7+8 = PD03

MORTICIAN: 1+2 = LNA


4. GAME-ENGINE:

Be sure to use the "ORIGINAL" graphics engine. Not the "Experimental


5. ROUNDS:

Please play at least 3-5 rounds and collect the information. This way you get a good average. One round is not meaningful.


6. MAP:

In the open Beta only the Brandstedt map is available. It is not a bug ;)


7. CONTROL CENTER:

The open beta is not optimized for the game with control center. The changes related to tow trucks and morticians have not yet been applied to the control center, which is why the game will crash. Therefore, be sure to play without the control center.


8. CACHE:

When switching from Public to Open Beta or vice versa, the cache should be cleared. If you have cleared the cache, it is important that you load the map once in SP before you start the MP. So Emergency generates the new cache, which prevents problems in the MP :)


10. VERSION:

The Lüdenscheid Launcher shows you exactly which version you are playing. It is important that this is 1) Up2Date and 2) written in the form. If someone is still playing an old or different version, the feedback is of no use to us. If you are playing the current open beta and fill out the form, the launcher must say: 1.0.3-open-beta-4.


TO THAT: The form is always about the comparison between public and current open beta.



We hope that we can make progress with the ground bug and that the version will continue to run better than the public version.
