News

The new 0.5.0 alpha version has been released along with a change of names.

Short list of features:
- Team hunting. You can create a team in the options window (O) and invite players from the right click menu.
- More items. New items were added as potential loot including components and raw materials.
- Bugfixes and optimizing. Always trying to squeeze as much out of the engine as possible.

We are both proud and happy to announce the release of our 0.4.9 update. Even though we're at 0.4.9 this version is regarded as a milestone for the project. The most important features will speak for themselves:

- Private Chat and Trading facilitates interaction between players and a platform that we can build upon.
- Changes to allow making a selection and copy text from the chat window(s).
- Item detail window can be opened from more locations (ie: loot window)

The server will be down while we apply the new version update.
Please stay tuned for more info...

The server has been updated to version 0.4.8 and so have the client builds. Download a fresh copy.

Server is down for maintenance and version update 0.4.8.
More info about server status and client updates soon...

After our borked update earlier we managed to localize the problem, fix it and rebuild the whole project within an hour.
Surely, somehow we must have been getting better at this

Without any further delay by release formalities we'd like to present our new 0.4.7 client available for download.

Have fun!

After deploying the new 0.4.7 version to our live environment we found an issue that will need a fix for release.
The 0.4.6 version has been rolled back and will be running while we are patching things up for a new build.

We should be right back after this break! Join our IRC Chat for real time news

The server is running and ready for fresh 0.4.6 clients.

Most important changes were applied on the server side but the client received some improvements as well:
- There is now a model in place to recycle your items in style.
- All options are now merged into one Option Window with sections. (default: O)
- Mob AI and movement was revisited to assure respawns and prevent glitching.
- Cleaned op some minor annoyances / typos

Enjoy!

Our server has been shut down for maintenance and in anticipation of a version update.

The main reason to shut down the server early was to prevent pollution of the database. The issue has been corrected and measures were taken to prevent this in the future. We are almost done with the new build so keep an eye on this channel ...

Those of you who have subscribed to this channel have probably noticed the disappearance of the Unity WebPlayer file. We would have replaced it with a new WebPlayer if it wasn't for the better quality and (consistent!) performance of the Unity standalone build. That was more then enough reason to switch our target platform and so we hereby proudly present our first standalone OBCity-client.
