FORUM TEST RELEASE: Project Zomboid - Version 2.9.9.15

[RobertJohnson]

REMEMBER: This is a forum test release because it may have new bugs or other serious issues, in fact a few we're aware of already and this latest build hasn't had a huge amount of closed testing. However we'd like to extend it to a forum test to get any remaining issues as quickly as possible.

 

If not comfortable with that, please wait until official release on Desura, which should hopefully be for Mondoid if it goes well. REMEMBER, it's always advised to manually back up your saves (C:\Users\<username>\Zomboid\<gamemode>) when using forum builds.

 

(if file is not present, please try again in 10-20 mins)

[RobertJohnson]

Ahah, sorry again for that

[Wikki]

[RoboMat]

Zombie Icons? Awesome those small things add a lot to the polished feeling of the newer builds

[Guest]

No more god mode?

So, this time, I will be a god, right? Right, Romain? No, no, you wouldn't tease me like that again -- why wasn't I a god while everyone else was, why?

[Dahugo]

God, just tried the new Last Stand Challenge, it is SO DARK !

 

This build looks pretty good so far, no game breaking bug till now (played around 20mins)

[Paton]

Whoo. Just finished downloading 14...

We able to use crafted doors after save and reload?

[frenchiveruti]

I hate downloading the last version a day ago and then i have the newer one at the next hour

[Tooks]

- Zombie kill count still goes up into the thousands; don't know what triggers it.

- Shirt texture glitch is still present to some extent.

- Weapons don't disappear from inventory when durability reaches zero (Golf club, Baseball bat)

- Save file name bug still there (Reverts to naming save by a single letter).

- Upgrading a skill while the game is paused (I think) makes the icon for the skill (ie. Box saying Blunt level 1) appear with your mouse forever.

 

It's great that zombie corpses now have an icon though, but for males it looks like a human dead body, and for females its a zombie. Was this intentional, or is it supposed to be for NPC's?

I thought this was a feature. Hopefully it was. My axe fixing mod kind of relies on this otherwise people have to pay very close attention to their items

The kill counter should be fixed for the next version. Did you try to enter any special characters in the savename?

 

The male dead body looks like a zombie to me :S

[Tarkan]

Finally !! icons for dead zombies haha no more drawers good stuff keep it up !

[Guest]

The links are slow as hell, what would normally take me an 20 mins is taking me an hour.

 

Owell, there's always Desura

[Sweetskooma]

Hi, I was trying the build 13 especially the last stand 2. 

 

The "O" key for spending money doesn't seem to work for me. 

 

here's the thing it says in the cmd area. 

 

attempted index: reloadButtons of non-table: nullStack:onKeyPressed

Stack:reloadButtons

 

this repeats forever when I try the o key. 

 

Thank you for the awesome game !

[AdricTheGreat]

Currently streaming live!

 

Well. The game isn't finished downloading, but I'm still streaming. It's almost done.

Fixed

I've been enjoying this build immensely. The gameplay feels more balanced now, the zombie numbers seem to be under control. Crawlers are more manageable. Increased number of tools spawning also makes surviving a bit easier.

Bugs I have encountered:
- I'm on linux, so I've had the lwjgl bug. Every time I download a test build I have to copy in the correct .so files from the lwjgl package or it won't even start.
- Zombies shambling in place.

- Noticeable slowdown while standing on the roof of the warehouse in town.

- For some reason I can select crates inside the warehouse through the roof.
