Neues vom Mapper: https://discord.com/channels/52970…278433581666525
Als ob der gute nicht einmal einen Experimental-Server aufsetzen kann und zumindest sagt, ob es brechen wird. Interessanterweise gibt es auch keine exp1.29-DeerIsle-Server gerade. Hach ja. Andere Mapper können ihre Maps im übrigen mit den 1.29er-Tools auch nicht immer bauen.
Deerisle & the Upcoming DayZ 1.29 Update
What You Need to Know:
With DayZ update 1.29 approaching, the DayZ developers have warned that the new performance fixes may affect existing mods. This also impacts Deerisle, so I want to explain clearly what this means for Deerisle V5.9 and the upcoming Deerisle 6.0.
What 1.29 Might Break:
DayZ 1.29 includes internal engine and performance changes. Updates like this often cause issues in older mods, including script errors, crashes, broken functions, and problems with map-related logic. Because Deerisle V5.9 was built before these changes, it is possible that 1.29 will break parts of the map or its complete scripting. We will only know once the update goes live.
The Hard Truth:
Deerisle Stable V5.9 will not receive fixes if 1.29 breaks it
If 1.29 causes issues in Deerisle V5.9, I will not be updating or patching that version or investing any additional time in it.
There are important reasons for this:
Deerisle 6.0 is deep in development.
Over the last 9 months, Deerisle 6.0 has gone through massive restructuring.
More than 6,000 lines of code have been added, changed, or completely rewritten.
These changes significantly expand and modernize how the map works for its final endgame content.
So… fixing V5.9 makes no sense
Because the entire scripting backend in 6.0 is different, V5.9 and V6.0 barely share the same structure anymore.
Any fix created for V5.9 would need to be reworked and reimplemented again for 6.0.
This doubles the development work while offering no long-term value.
All development focus is on making 6.0 stable
Deerisle 6.0 "The Endgame" is the future of the map.
Instead of patching a version that is being replaced, it is far more productive to invest all development time into finishing and polishing 6.0.
What Happens When 1.29 Releases?
If 1.29 does not break V5.9:
You can continue running V5.9 normally until 6.0 releases.
If 1.29 does break V5.9:
There will be no compatibility fix for 5.9.
Server owners will need to temporarily disable Deerisle.
I will stay fully focused on finishing Deerisle 6.0.
Looking Ahead to Deerisle 6.0
Deerisle 6.0 is a major upgrade.
The scripting backend has been rebuilt, and the map has expanded.
DayZ updates can be challenging, but they also push the platform forward.
Deerisle 6.0 - The endgame is the next big step, and all my development time is dedicated to delivering it as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience, your support, and for continuing to play Deerisle.
More updates soon.
