Hey @faatal and others did you notice this thread on Reddit?
https://www.reddit.com/r/7daystodie/..._to_die_unity/

Looks important, some users are getting a HUGE performance boost easily. Maybe these Unity options can be set as default for A19 if devs find are stable enough
I did a quick test and this gave me about +15% better performance in a CPU-bound area (@Ryzen 5 3600 & RX580). This one to be exact. Similar result i've got from my testing by assigning the game only to the main threads of each CPU core, but this gfx-enable-gfx-jobs=1 tweak seem to be resulting in a few fps more (at least on my end) even after allowing the game to use all CPU threads back again. Apparently for some folks it negatively impacts performance when there's a lot of zeds around.

 
How's the terrain generation of the biomes looking in A19? Any major alterations between the current alpha and the next?
Also, I've noticed you've re-done the texture model for the LCB; it resembles the A16 version back when it was made of iron. Is the recipe still going to be 5 stones?
Everything you mention is identical afaik.

 
Interesting that one of the couch sectionals has a shape selector icon. I wonder if they are trying to unify more blocks into that system. I like them personally so wouldn't mind it. One of my mods actually expands on the shape selector function for storage containers... :p
Been that way since A18. You craft a couch helper and it has all the pieces.

 
So anything going on with development recently?

Quite busy with other stuff at the moment (wife is 21 weeks pregnant! :) ), so I haven't checked the forum in a while.

 
Hello Fun Pimps,

When you will release:

The sinked sub on game?

The diving suit? ( to explore beneath water and search sinked containers such as sinked boat or a pretrol boat)

The oxigen tanks for the diving suit, also the portable big light bigger than the lantern that it is above the table of some buildings ?

The 2 or 3 camouflages, one of them is leafs ( because zombies will get more smarter so it will need the camouflage system)?

The first camouflage can it be using, clay - (Mud) and grass ( leaves) and perhaps a little wood. Notice the zombies will be more smarter and if the see player they can run into, then it would be necessary the camouflage sistem to be more undetectable to zombies. The Second Camouflage will use leather, scrap metal, plastic, cloth and 2 or 3 special pieces. The third Camouflage will use more expensive things.

The motocross bike for 2 players ? (The red or orange motocross similar like the terminator 2 when the boy is escaping from T1000 wich is driving a truck) Position of the players, one drives and another on the back and the player can shoots his own weapon - Similar like the buggy but buggy has a minigun or heavy machine gun attached on the roof of the buggy)

The buggy for 2 players ? (One who drives and on the back of the player the second player can maneuver the minigun or machine gun wich is attached on the roof top of the buggy and can fire the machine gun)

The new armour for buggy? There is a buggy without armour and the person can choose to have upgradble armour - Normally it will be a skinny buggy ( similar to the rally cars inside with some bars to protect car to flip out)

The minigun? You can translate the language of an auger and adapt for the minigun, dont forget the battery to add ...

The minigun attached on the roof of the buggy?

The van like the A-Team for 4 players ? There is an old TV SERIE "Who's the Boss" with the actor Tony Danza - The Van can it be white and transport at maximum 4 players including the driver.

The water system piping to drain water from lakes to the base? Water pump dont forget to improve that.

Congratulations to Fun pimps to confirm the Drones, the finally Desert Eagle, finally ! :)

Best Reggards and keep up the good work

Please repply and take a look all my messagens from the begining of last years and confirm 90^% all

Thank you very much

Hello Fun Pimps,
Sniop for space

Sorry Mate, but 96,42% of your Questions can be answered with : Never.

They do want to revisit Water if im not mistaken, but above that...

Have to admit tho, i WANT the Minigun ingame.

Madmole while youre at it, please add the BFG 9000 too. Thanks ^^

TBH if they did add a mounted Gun on the truck it would probably be a M60. granted a Minigun would be cool but thats alot of ammo just. deleted

and i do hope they reservist water. all i ask for water is just better Physicists. nothing more or less (maybe a Boat but that is pushing it) if they want to make swimming better and zeds to swim. sure!

Enjoy the sleep while you can man, I've got a five month old Gronkling to deal with and it's quite demanding. I hear the first eighteen years are the hardest :-)

 
Guys, have you seen the new couches on Twitter?

I don't know how about you, but I dislike these new couches! Sorry, but they look too comfy and make me want to sleep, instead of wanting to fight zombies! :(

I have 3 to deal with. Twin 3 year old girls and a boy who just turned 2 this past February. Now that my wife works and I am a stay at home dad for now, I have a HUGE appreciation for what she did....lol
