I been playing the last 3 days with these 2-3 minute load times, which is horribly long for my pc. Then I read this and think it probably wont make a difference.
I load up the game, hit continue, and the fucker is ready to go in less than 10 seconds. TEN SECONDS!!!!

SHIT!

FUCK YOU TECHLAND YOU NEED TO FIX THAT.
But I love you for making this addicting game.

Also for what its worth, in addition to making it read-only, I also deleted the SEVENTEEN THOUSAND lines of warnings, errors and infos in the log file, and just left the first two lines.


Techland has never been able to code a game worth a shit. Such is why all their previous attempts have been utter failures. Obviously I assume Sabin will disagree Razz He likes anything >.<

not if your using the coop fix and steam Very Happy

Where does it save when you're using co-op fix and steam? I can see the message 'Steam cloud finished sync' or something like that when I exit Steam after playing the game.

EDIT: Another question, I am planning to start this along with my friends tonight and wanted to know if it's wise to apply all the patches from 1-3?

Currently, all I have is the vanilla version of RELOADED (without any patches), Smart Steam and a set of MP co-op fix files. We want to establish a connection via Hamachi. So let me know if I need to download all the 3 patches and apply them in order or just the 3rd patch from iND would do?

Sweeeeeet, I finally managed to play the game the way it's meant to. Increased FoV (70 good for me), disabled weapon blur (I'm actually fine with global blur and bloom), enabled 4x msaa + 4x ss traa (no more messed up shadows), vsync enabled, and found a way to remove the input related stuttering (solution posted @ steam forums). Game is running fine @55-60 fps and very smooth all the time. All the research and tweaking are really worth it Smile

Now a question. What does it mean when the text description for an inventory item is blue???

Green is good items, blue is very good items, purple is nearly legendary and yellow/gold are unique items.
(Shark mod - six metal blades attachment - with Gabriel's Hammer pretty much crushes everything so far, there's far more items though but they are very difficult to find or acquire.)

EDIT: Also try to memorize the item properties, defective, tiring and sluggish aren't all that good whereas deadly, fast or ordinary are OK (Well ordinary is pretty much basic but it's better than a negative property like flimsy or the above tiring both of which are fairly self explaining.) though it's not too difficult as better item properties are nearly always green quality or above.
(Modding a item also often improves it to green level but to really make a improvement blue or purple items should be modded first as that gives a far better bonus.)

Sales ofc won't be at COD level, but they will be sufficient. Maybe not on the PC, but on consoles for sure. It's a very good game to play with a console and a friend infront of the telly.


For the Motherland!

Found a lot of zeroed shader effects in the /scripts folder, enabling all of them sort of messed the game up but once I've taken a more careful approach I might get a number of interesting things working.

Noise filter (Working but even 0.01 is too strong and 0.1 which I used for everything covered the entire screen, ha ha.)

Blood reflection. (Kinda like the local water puddle reflection.)

Rain reflection.

Water / ocean simulation and reflection.

Some stuff I have no idea what they do or are. Razz
(Actually there's a lot of this.)




EDIT: http://www.multiupload.com/H4OOJQGJPQ
(Very very basic example edits, use Winmerge, Notepad++ or whatever to compare and it should be clear what I mean, don't use in-game as is.)

EDIT: Bugfix, can now be used-in game without much of a issue.

If you are a Nvidia user, run Nvidia Inspector, look for the Dead Island profile (check that the executable is deadislandgame.exe and not deadisland.exe) then set these compatibility bits: 0x0000F0C1. Finally override settings and enable 4x msaa + 4x supersampling transparency aa (forget about sparse grid aa, that one fucks the shadows). That should do the job.

Anyone to answer my question please?

So what I did was:

-remove all blur effects (I think)
-remove bloom
-remove depht of field
-remove desaturate effect (the game looks a bit more colorful now from what I saw)
-remove SSAO
-change the FoV to 80

I believe that's all. I have the custom files themselves in another folder, unpacked if they're needed.


heya

tried but i got a crash as soon as i start the game... im using version 1.2, maybe you have another?


I'm using the .exe for the original version (1.0.0) on the updated game (1.2.0). You could try to use the hexed .dll, but it didn't work for me.

If there would be a line of code titled "Fuck Males. Females are the best. all males are gay and they fuck themselves in their own asses. FUCKING MALES!"

No one would be complaining. men jus don't give a fuck about this shit.... but WOMEN... It only needs that word whore or fuck or any other potentialy offending word is near word female, then outrage starts and feminists attack the shit out of everyone.

Get over it. jeez.

You do realise that it's the gaming world we are on about and it's actually MEN who are complaining? Most women are actually preparing meals, shopping, cleaning and making themselves look nice for us and really have no clue wtf is happening with this latest outrage. Very Happy

Change your FOV to a bigger number ( 82.5 or 90) and your sickness will stop.

2 hours is my average session. No matter how good a game can be, it can hold me in front of the monitor at around 3 hours at max.
