im slow nvm

why add required mods to play a map

I'd like to apologize for my inactivity. Recently my cousin came to visit me from Connecticut and I've been enjoying my time with him. Currently I am working on extra artillery options for this map for more player customization. With this additional artillery I need time to test to see how balanced it is. The update will also come with some atmosphere changes as I believe the map is currently too bright. I will try to get this update out tonight, if not players will be accommodated with a download link from google drive just so players can see what's in the works. After this update there will likely be another terrain revamp coming a few days after it. That update will extend the terrain of the battlefield. Dates on the road map will be updated as well. A revamp is currently in the works for chickamauga. A revamp for harpers ferry will follow it after. That's all for now, take care.

Glad to hear! I wanted to added a snowman but unfortunately it had left my mind. Think I’ll try doing that today :)

I like the new winter variant

Alright sounds good, if you run into any other issues let me know

The ladders are working for both player and bots now

sounds good

Alright i'm currently in a game with my cousin, once i'm done I will investigate further.

I have verified the files and I have the at and aa configed for the artillery

Interesting, has verifying your files worked? They wont climb ladders if there isn't any artillery.

I'll keep an eye out if the bots can climb, cause right now even they can't.

I can see if I can make more adjustments tonight. But if your bots are able to climb them you should be able to as well.

I've been spamming f and it still doesn't work.

Try spamming E or F key I think its F. I can assure you those ladders are claimable.

im playing the beta currently. I don't have any mods that affect the movement of the bots.

Are you using any mods which change/affect the movement of your bots? And if you dont mind me asking which version of ravenfield you are running. I had just played point match 20 minutes ago and AI was climbing ladders for me.

I might have an idea of what the issue is. After messing around with the editor, I found that the ladder model is basically backwards.

I should be able to fix it within the next 30 minutes.

hmm, let me switch out of the beta branch. It was uploaded from that branch last night.

both sides

Strange, i haven't touched them during last nights update. Is it both sides which have this issue? or one more than the other?

And..... the ladders are not working again.

Awesome! thank you very much for speaking out!

indeed they are

Are the bots making good use of artillery? It appeared to be working when i tested it.

the ladders work now

I believe I've finally ironed it out!

Thank you for pointing this out, I've been going back in fourth with these scaffolds. I think i will scarp it and try make a better platform.

Also, it appears that both player and ai cannot climb the ladders.

True that.

another fun fact, more soldiers died of disease than actual combat in the civil war

Yea sure im down for a question!

Hey howdy hey, I don't see a way to contact you on your Steam profile's comments, so meselves has a question for you if yer' down for it.

My goodness! 1k views 350 active subscribers and almost 800 total plays. This warms my heart, thank you all!!! :)

I will be reverting back to 2.4 because the ravenfield map editor screwed this file up royally somehow. I want players to enjoy a map which works, so please pardon me on this. I will be looking into what's causing this problem. 2.5 was intended for fps optimization, reducing the amount of primitive objects. But after removing all these things it seems as if the ai simply doesn't move.. Sorry for the disappointment, hopefully this revert works.

AI seems to be broken right now. fix coming soon.

Nice

Alright guys, before the update. The file size was 177.127 MB. its now 149.182 MB so you should get some better frame rates. You should still be playing on simple graphics settings. With 200 bots you should get at least 30 fps.

@Tritonics Thank you friend! Happy new year to you as well!

Very Nice, also happy new year!

This is a message going out to all billy yanks and johnny rebs. I would like to thank all of you who have shown your support. I am currently working on solutions to better the frame rate on this map. As many of you know, this map is atrocious when it comes to fps. I will be switching to the lower resolution textures that might be available to me. Secondly, many trees will be removed. I'm sorry, but these assets are just too much. Even for me in the map editor I'll get 30 fps while trying to paint pathways. It's a pain in the rear for me, and I'm sure it's a pain to many others as well. I intend to have this update up by tonight. It might be tomorrow. Keep your heads up. And on an ending note, learn about the native americans which fought in the american civil war with this link here - 1st choctaw battalion - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzZV7BIyWOk&t=1370s

updates coming soon

Thats lovely

New map later tonight. everything is working great.

Thank you @tritonics! Im ready to upload the new update. Everything seems to be working fine from spectator mode at the moment, let me know if you think the gameplay is more wholesome!! Also the battle of Chickamauga map is planned to be uploaded this month. However it might be January if there are still problems with this map. At some point I want to assemble a crew to help me with some of these maps. So if anyone is interested please do feel free to shoot me a text. The crew will gain access to google drives to download maps(1861, burnside,Chickamauga) information on locations and battles, and most importantly creating objects out of primitive assets. All crew member will be added as contributors to my workshop items.

You've earned one workshop follower, your maps are really awesome even if they're just two for now!

Lovely!

Big Ai update tonight! This update keeps both confederate and union soldiers on the main battlefield. They should no longer cluster up inside the forest.
