So... with the update... whats gonna break?

[Jack Marslow]

What actually happens when DayZ updates? Am I going to have to readd every addon ive done? Or try to merge the updated code with my old code? How much of my life can expect to lose?

New update means a new mission file, anything inside the mission file will need redone.

Anyone know the status of this update? Last I hear from thevisad was they were waiting for approval.

 

[McKeighan]

well that's going to throw a squirrel in the old nutbag.

 

[TorturedChunk]

I always enjoy the updates to core DayZ, but for my mod, its trouble haha

Couple of nights merging for me

 

[McKeighan]

I've always found that my mods, after update, seem to work better - until i find something that is so severely broken that it takes some major work to get them to function agian.

 

[Jack Marslow]

I dont forsee much trouble with it, I'm just trying to figure out how its all going to go. I could probably add these mods in my sleep by now.

 

[Rhymeo]

Ach.. just hope the mods get updated quickly.

Beyond Compare from scootersoftware is what I have used for multiple years.

Any advantages over Notepad++?

Winmerge ... comparing directories and files, marking of differences, even checking if the codeblock was just moved to another position in a file. Highly recommended.

I'll chip Meld into the pot for diff tools, allows 3 way comparisons as well

 

[hambeast]

diffmerge. The best. compare folders, compare files. 3 way too.

pretty much the industry standard on windows.
