WAR DUST News

Mid week update

Hello Dusties!

- Massive improvement of memory usage and shaders performance, about 70% reduction in memory usage comparing to last weeks version
- Buffed all semi auto pistols about 20%
- Color change on weapons etc. should work correctly now (on most of the gun skins)
For example when your gun touches the wall and you can't shoot then it will turn to red tinted or when you can grab any part of your loadout, then it will turn to grayish.
- New graphics for Alpha Variant maps in airplane map loader
- New crosshair on ACOG sight
- The Community section on the right hand side of the menu is back online. There will be mostly weekly updated screenshot slideshow and news
- Hot text Feed in spawn room above spawn maps is back online either. Default message is a reminder about balancing teams, but once in a while you might see some high priority messages that need to be pushed to all players currently in the game. For example "Update available, please restart your steam" etc.

FOR MODDERS : Added up to date modding template

"Please Wait" bug is still under investigation as our highest priority bug!

Shaders optimization

Sunday small update.
Shaders optimization, should reduce overall RAM usage about 30% and hopefully fix crashes reported by some users.
Still lot of to improve on shaders/RAM side, but that will be another time.

If you see any pink material please let us know!

Thank you!

New Map Update!

Hello everyone,

WarDust got an exciting update!

- Added Middle East Map day version (night coming later)!
- Added video tutorial in main menu, basics, parachuting and pro loco (Massive thanks to HappyPappy)
- Lot of changes to improve overall memory usage to chase random crashes reported by some players (not finished)
- Fixed floating grass on BloodCells maps
- Couple other small fixes and changes around
- Due to many complaints and confusion about official tournaments (same map all over again, some thought that it’s a bugged rotation), I decided to disable it until a better idea is found for it.

BONUS : Little twist :) Maps (except new one and night ones) got a new variant with different capture points placement that could change tactics and gameplay (please let me know what you think about that!).

Other major bugs still on the workbench
