We have re-done item names. </li> Fixed a texture problem of the K. Style NVG Fairy Tale﻿</li></ul> <!--===SKIN UPDATES=== Added new Modern Black skins (7). Th﻿ese will be released / reviewed later.</li> Updated the M4A1 Camo recipe store icon. You can now see the gun better on the icon.</li> Updated the K. Style NVG Neon Dragon textures due community feedback. The skin should look better﻿ overall now.</li></ul>

BATTLE ROYALE UPDATES

When being outside of the safezone the dome will turn blue.</li> When being inside of the safezone the dome / border will only display when you get close to the border.</li> Fixed a bug where every time the first safezone spawns players would be for one second in the radia﻿tion.</li></ul>

COMMUNITY UPDATES
<ul><li>Bus Stop System:</li> ''After a lot of community complaints about the current car system in the game we think we finally have a proper side solution for the issues related to the car system. Cars have always been unstable causing people to crash / lose their cars and were never a good feature from the beginning.'' ''Unfortunately we can not simply remove car﻿s entirely from the game since cars are actually very useful for players to go from location to location. We have looked at this and came to realize that the only main reason cars are used is for players to go from location A to location B.'' ''Now, we have came up with another idea: A bus system. This system will basicly allow players to fast travel through the maps for GD (Game Dollars). This system will be more efficient and faster than using cars and it will also be way cheaper. Here's how the system﻿ will work﻿:﻿'' <ul><li>Travelling through the map can only be done through marked bus stops. Players have to go here to be able to travel to a different location on the map. <li>The bus stop travel system is available on Colorado V2, Colorado V1 & Caliwood. <li>For travelling through the map GD will be charged from the player's account. Prices will be based on distance but will be relatively cheap. <li>Deluxe account subscriptions can travel for 50% of the GD price, extreme subscriptions can travel entirely free.</li></ul></ul> ''You can kind of see t﻿his feature as a side s﻿olution for the ca﻿r ﻿﻿s﻿ystem. However, since the new bus stop system will be much more efficient and cheap we hope players will stop using cars and use t﻿he bus stop s﻿yste﻿m.'' The video about that feature will be added at the end of the patch notes. <ul><li>The Fast-Lo﻿ad Rewor﻿k:</li> ''Fast-Load has been reworked and optimized in this patch. Fast-load loads models around you in a "smoother way". They load slower to prevent the game from freezing. So instead of freezing for 1-2 seconds many times while entering a big city, you will get slighly lower fps for maybe 5 seconds.'' <ul><li>Added a UI indicator so you know if fast-load is loading buildings or not.</li></ul> <li>Perfomance/Model Updates</li> <ul><li>WZ_CityBuildings:</li> <ul><li>R﻿emoved all overgrowth from all buildings.</li> <li>city_building_05_v2 - Fixed the windows﻿ of the building, players can no longer jump through windows anymore from ANY side. (Before players could jump through windows but only from one side.)</li> <li>Also fixed a window part where there was no actual room connected to these windows. (You could see inside the building.)</li> <li>bld_apartment_set_01 - Removed the physicx from the stairs on the side of the building so players can't access the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_apartment_set_04 - Removed the physicx from the stairs on the side of the building so players can't access the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_apartment_set_05 - Removed the physicx from the stairs on the side of the building so players can't access the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_apartment_set_07 - Removed the physicx from the stairs on﻿ the side of the building so players can't access the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_apartment_4_story_01 - Removed the physicx from the stairs on the side of the building so players can't access the rooftop anymore. Fixed FPS drop issues related to the graffiti.</li> <li>bld_warehouse_xl_01 - Removed the physicx of some details so players can't access the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_warehouse_garage_l_01 - Removed the physicx of some details so players can't acce﻿ss the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_warehouse_shop_m_01 - Removed the physicx of some details so players can't access the rooftop anymore.</li> <li>bld_warehouse_s_01 - Removed the physicx of some details so players can't access the rooftop anym﻿or﻿e.</li> <li>bld_warehouse_l_01 - Removed the physicx of some details so players can't access the rooftop anymore﻿.</li></ul> <li>WZ_Town﻿Buildin﻿gs﻿:</li> <ul><li>Removed all overgrowth from all buildings.</li> <li>town_clinic_01 - Back room is now open. This room has always been closed but has now been opened.</li> <li>town_autogarage_02 - Opened an extra room and added a connecting door connecting the two parts of the building.</li> <li>town_diner_02_Open - Has been closed again due major perfomance issues. We will rework this building later again and open it up again.</li></ul> <li>WZ_Cali﻿Props:</li> <ul><li>props_busstop_01 - Fixed the issue where﻿ players could jump through the iron bars from one side but not from the other. Players can't jump through that anymore.</li></ul> <li>WZ_CaliBuildings:</li> <ul><li>bld_store_liquor_01 - Opened the back / side room of this building. Added a back entrance and opened some windows.</li> <li>bld_shopping_mall_05 - Opened up the entire building, added three doors where players can enter the building.</li></ul></ul>

MARKETPLACE UPDATES
''We've received a lot of feedback from our community regarding skins. Some people were complaining there are too many skins in the game, some people were complaining there hasn't been any new skins since forever, and some said prices are too high etc. We've discussed this and came up with a solution, a ne﻿w system, that will be fit for everyone. Summed up there's basicly too many skins available to players. Some skins are too old, some new, it can be very confusing this way. Based on this feedback we've came up with the following solution / system:'' <ul><li>There will from now on only be a limited amount of skin recipes available instead of everything being always available. We will rotate the skins daily meaning new / different skins will be available every day including discounts.</li> <li>Some skinboxes will be removed forever from the marketplace. (They might come back on certain events sometimes)</li> <li>Skinboxes will rotate in the marketplace instead of everything being available at once. We plan on making different boxes available for different/certain periods.</li> <li>This will leave us with more space to actually release new skinboxes instead of "flooding" the marketplace with skins.</li> <li>Skinboxes will increase in their value. Some skinboxes will become legacy.</li> <li>This will also leave space for us to release boxes that can be cheap or have prices more based on the actual quality of the skins.</li></ul>-->

MAP UPDATES
<ul><li>Caliwood﻿</li> <ul><li>Added some stairs around the beach to get better up the hill.</li> <li>Added stairs at the pier as second way up.</li></ul> </ul> '''The hotfix can roll out any time from now. Only a simple server restart will be needed. '''
