  • "Due to various performance and stability issues, the game server will be fully wiped" -Kilgore

Important

There are lots of new and very experimental stuff and that's why this session should be considered as a beta test. New possible bugs, exploits and broken parts of the game are to be expected. I didn't add (WIP) note to changelog but most of changes are WIP.

  • Due to nature of changes previous builds, guides, wiki content will be outdated for some time. Henry
  • Changelog is only partial and doesn't include many changes, especially many new Quests and Jobs.

New Items:

Lot of human skins starts fusing player animations when wearing fitting armors - usually Metal/Combat Armor or better, but that's not a strict rule.

COMMENTS

  • The most important change is about followers. This change was going to happen with Wipe, but seeing constant PvE in PvP madness I decided to make it now. After wipe, mercenaries will be allowed to attack players. Not now because I'm aware of the fact that some players have enough funds (from bank interest and other things and exploits that were fixed in the past) to spam mercenaries PvP.
  • For PvE followers work exactly in the same way as before.

Review the original post and thread on forum.


NOTES

As you can see, some necessary bug-fixes are included. Rare weapons were improved to make them more effective in battles (especially Gauss Rifle vs Pistol). 40mm Grenades were improved in order to make them more interesting for organized PvP. There was +5 ST bonus from some unlisted "quest" in Stables, NPC is long gone since it was reported (a month or two ago), now it's fixed. New spawners were added in order to encourage some small and medium scale PvP in New Reno and Warehouse and to increase availability of rare items, which were accessible only through TC and Special Encounters. Most notably: implant modules. With average of 30 min spawn and 2% chance, there should be roughly one implant module spawned by each footlocker per day. However, you never know when it happens. Remember that footlockers are cleared with each respawn so if nobody picks these items, they will be simply lost.


COMMENTS

COMMENTS

Adding stuff - for more variety, as always. Some improvements of caravans, more coming. Profit from interest limited for those who have more than 1M on their accounts. I know it doesn't solve the problem completely, but maybe it's a step forward. Guards not shooting everyone standing next to them should fix problems with spawning in encounters. Additional replication timer for bombers/victims only encouraged usage of more alts and caused more trolling so it wasn't needed. My to-do list is larger but some things took more time than expected. There are many changes coming soon. mostly new stuff and possibilities.

COMMENTS

As some players reported, traders were constantly filled with rockets, 9mm ammo and materials because of high selling price. Low base price should make them cheaper to buy and also cheaper to sell. Books were removed from bookstores now until we find a use for them, G&B and FA book were confusing and reported many times as a bug. Experience from crafting simple items was lowered in order to make botting not worth it (I hope). An amount of Bottle Caps at traders was lowered a bit, in case you have problems with getting them, you should try other towns. I frequently check stores and some areas have a lot of caps while other, more crowded (like NCR/Hub) have almost none. Move outta these towns and you will be fine. This update might be considered by some as a nerf, but in the long run it should cure the gameplay a bit, I hope.

2238 Long Ago (but not forgotten)

June 28th, 2012
FIXES:
  • Silent Death works with 14mm and .223 pistols
  • Kamikaze now reduces Damage Resistances instead of Damage Thresholds
  • Bear trap graphics
  • Stability and performence fixes
  • Fibers visible in field of view only
  • VTDB should save characters data correctly now
  • Browsing in faction terminals
  • Metzger slave run locations should no longer disappear prematurely
  • Toxic Caves elevator
  • Extended some maps near specific entrances that would lock the client's vision
  • Patched ghost wall holes in certain maps
  • FOV and weapon range contours should be displayed correctly. Also see the fog of war (Features)
  • Many dialogs errors
  • Minor stuff

FEATURES:

  • Added the display of fog of war (shadow over the area outside FOV)
    • to enable it, bind it to a hotkey using 2238 config tool. Use the hotkey to toggle its display in game
    • to change the fog color, add the following string to FOnline2238.cfg in [2238] section: FogColor = R G B A where R, G, B and A range from 0 to 255. There might be a slight difference between FOV contours and the fog of war boundary due to different drawing methods * no need to report that unless the difference is big
  • A new repeatable quest, talk to Martin at Westin's Ranch

CHANGES (WIP):

  • Gun Runners courier quest: box is removed after succesful lockpick
  • Right between the eyes mow reduces Helmet Anti Crit Modifier by 50% instead of 25%

  • Adrenaline Rush increases Damage Resistances by 15, 10, 5 and Damage Thresholds by 3, 2, 1 when current HP is below (or equal to) 25%, 50% and 75% of total HP respectively. This is not cumulative
  • Removed cap for Armor Class
  • Updated the base config tool. Changed FixedFPS setting behaviour: negative values disable fixed fps rate and instead work like old GameSleep (value taken negative, i.e. FixedFPS=-5 is equivalent to old GameSleep=5). Using negative values can greatly increase the performance on older machines, be sure to check it out. If in doubt, start with values around -2. Remeber that FixedFPS setting is ignored when you enable VSync
  • Armour condition drops by half on violent death (instad of flat 75p%) decrease
  • Changed Gunrunners Courier Job: Decreased reputation needed to enter the faction to 900. Added limit of max. 1000 reputation being possible to gain from doing the job
