Garfo · 22 Jun 2016 at 13:40

Thanks all to jumped on our server last night was so very GG'S

I will be on again for some more action

Had a quick 20 mins blast last night, Game is smooth and pretty with everything on full wack!

Just need to configure sweetfx as it looks a bit dull without it!

Will be on tonight for a blast, that is for sure!

Garfo · 22 Jun 2016 at 15:43

Good stuff m8y my BenQ monitor is like sweet FX couple of clicks and can adjust it very nicely

Xcept1 · 22 Jun 2016 at 16:03

I've got a .ini adjustment I would like some people to test out tonight if possible. It adjusts the way that mouse input is handled in game. I'll post it tonight as I'm at work until 1900 or if Toejam reads this and he can remember then post away!

Edit - Sheldo, I have a decent ReShade config if you want it.

Grumps82 · 22 Jun 2016 at 16:51

Does reshade / sweetfx still only work in borderless or can i use it in fullscreen mode ?

I only ask as Gsync doesnt work properly in borderless mode.

Orch · 22 Jun 2016 at 16:52

It seems to work in full screen since the latest update, I don't think freesync was working with it still though. I could be wrong on that as I've ditched sweetfx now

Xcept1 · 22 Jun 2016 at 17:57

ReShade and SweetFX both work in full screen and borderless now.

The Squad Development Kit is now available for download! Contained in the SDK is the Squad custom version of the Unreal Engine 4, a modified Editor for making maps, art assets, and game blueprints, and nearly all of the development tools that we use to create Squad.

To download the Squad Development Kit, first you must go to https://www.unrealengine.com/dashboard and register for an Epic Games account. Once you have an account, you need to download the Epic Games Launcher

Once in the launcher, navigate to the "Modding" tab, select Squad, and install the Squad Development Kit

Once you download the SDK, you can now launch the editor and get started.

NOTE: The first time you start the editor, it will hang on load at 71%. At this part, it is generating the Derived Data Cache, and will take some time (5-10 minutes).

If you have any questions, feel free to join our modding discord: https://discord.gg/0jXt1Y2dpl79B4qV

We are now pushing a version 6.4 hotfix release, which contains:

Full enablement of RCON, see Rcon.cfg in the server configs for more info.
Increased construction points per second from 1 to 2.
Changes to the smoke effect, it covers less area now.
Optimization of and changes to the muzzle firing effects.
The game's admin check now requires a user to have Kick permission and not just be in the admin list. Players with only reserved slot access are no longer going to see the team kill and suicide messages.
Added new bullet hole decals and fixed missing decals on the sandbag physical material.
Fixed changemap not working if the admin didn't have the pause match access level.

Steam Summer Sale & SQUAD vehicles coming!!!

SQUAD - it's an alpha game mixed between Battlefield and ARMA...

This will be the 1st time they're doing a discount and it's going to be 25% in the steam summer sale and end of July vehicles are coming! Over 9 months people have been playing the alpha as infantry only, this is going to be a huge game changer.

Had some good rounds on SKUNKZDOGS last night, one of the rounds was a 4 ticket loss, so close!!!

I hate this idea of paying to play a beta. Someone somewhere must have laughed their ass off when they realised they could do this

Not even a beta, we're still in alpha. Without releasing it like this then there would be no chance of the game even being created.
