January Patch

[h3]Happy new year![/h3]



The winter event is still ongoing with Valentines coming up soon, but today we have a smaller patch with some fan-requested tweaks included...

Cosmetic attachments like hats can be difficult to line up accurately, especially when the same hat is used by characters that range from your average human to a full-on Ceratosaurus. This patch we've added new code functionality to set custom sockets per class for shared items, allowing for much better alignment.



Mutations still pose a challenge for this, but if you're using the default models (or something close to them) the hat offsets should now be generally pretty good, if not spot-on. The most noticeable improvements are for larger items like the valentines tophat, and we'll be fine tuning things further.

Aside from cosmetic tweaks, a few changes were made to the in-game text chat. We decided to disable drop notifications appearing in chat- they're not really that relevant and you still get the regular popup notice on your own screen when you receive a new item anyway. Finally, server admins and developers now have custom bold name colours in addition to the scoreboard icons to help identify who's who.


[h3]Patch 2.9.49 Chaneglog:[/h3]
  • fixed Velvet Novaraptor skin posing as a feathered raptor
  • positional tweaks for a few dino items such as the raptor head cam
  • implemented support for unique socket locations for multi-team items
  • fixed cosmetic attachment offsets for items which are used by both dinos and humans
  • fixed the fishing hat position + rotation along with a bunch of other human cosmetics

  • added special colors for admin and dev names when typing in chat
  • stopped drop messages appearing on the in-game chat


Our economy programmer is looking into problems a couple players have had redeeming DLC lately, there will be some server-side improvements to hopefully address this soon.

If you are having problems connecting to the economy, please share your details in the bug reporting section of the official Discord so we can investigate.
