Damage reduction is in the game.

HOW DAMAGE REDUCTION WORKS

Damage reduction works by equipping clothing items to each clothing slot (hat, body, legs and shoes).

Wearing no clothes (naked) will result in a minus damage reduction (you will take more damage!). Once you take off all your clothes, it will have a -40% damage reduction.

HOW DAMAGE REDUCTION IS CALCULATED

Damage reduction is calculated by adding all your clothing slot’s damage reduction together to give a total percentage of damage reduction.

(damage reduction = legs-reduction + body-reduction + shoe-reduction + hat-reduction)

DAMAGE REDUCTION ITEMS

• Normals Hats: +2.5%
• Riot Hat: +10%
• Hard Hat: 7%
• No Hat: 0%

• Normal Body Items: +2.5%
• Ripped T-Shirt (Starting T-Shirting): 0%
• No Legs: -20%

• Normal Leg Items: +2.5%
• Ripped Jeans (Starting Jeans): 0%
• No Legs: -20%

• Normal Shoes: +2.5%
• No Shoes: 0%

INVENTORY SCREEN

The damage reduction total is displayed on your inventory screen (TAB).

It’s mostly world design and character fixes!

WEAPONS

I’m now transitioning all the weapons to the new weapon system. This will take some time but will give a better experience. The new weapon system works with the new inventory system, where players can now unequip and drop their weapons.

There is now only 1 weapon slot, down from 2.

You can also pick up and store weapons right inside of the inventory, it no longer uses the weapon slots.

Here is a list of all the weapons that have been updated to the new system:

• Wooden Sword
• Hunting Bow
• Fire Axe
• Torch
• Heckler 5
• Wrench

NEW WEAPON: PITCH FORK

We had to include a pitch fork. Here it is!

Here it is for the First Person View:

MAP DEVELOPMENT:

We’ve been working hard on the new map.

We’ve included a industrial compound:

A farm:

A small military check point:

THE MAP SO FAR

CHARACTER UV

The main character’s UV has been fixed, it no longer has edges or caps on the corners. The left arm and foot UV has been flipped to allow for capes.

CHARACTER SKIN

If you are interested in developing your own skin to be put into the game you can download the UV here (blank) and here (example)

There is no tool to preview the skin on our model right now, but we’re planning on making one soon.

We would like you to keep the player face so it stays consistent with the other skins.

That’s it for today’s update. Remember you can follow the development of Nomad on our Twitch channel. We openly listen to suggestions and feedback and we even add your items in!

A big update!

NEW WEAPON: WRENCH

The wrench has been added into the game.

And here it is for the FPS view:

FIRE AXE

The fire axe has been retextured.

INDUSTRIAL SPAWNS

Industrial spawns are now in the game and have a separate loot table.

NEW INVENTORY SCREEN

The inventory screen has been updated. The crafting menu has been moved to its own crafting screen. The inventory now comes with “Equipped” screen, it shows what your player has equipped.

You can unequip and drop items from this new menu.

Here is the new crafting menu. Its cleaner and can be opened by the ` button.

BACK PACK SYSTEM

I’ve been working hard to get the back pack system into the game. It’s now working, yay! Here are some back packs you can get in the game. Some back packs also come in different colour variants.

SAVING

I started to work on the saving system. This system will save your inventory items, current weapons, position, hp, food and drink. Right now I have the basics down, it currently only saves position, food, drink and HP. Inventory items will follow soon!

FALLING FAILSAFE

Hate when you somehow bug through the floor and your player keeps failing? Well, I’ve added a failsafe to Nomad, so if you somehow fall through the floor, you will be teleported to a random spawn point (you won’t die and be forced to respawn).

BIRDS

Birds will now only come out in the day. They will delete when it gets dark.

That’s it for today’s update. Remember you can follow the development of Nomad on our Twitch channel. We openly listen to suggestions and feedback and we even add your items in!

TENTS/CAMPSITES

Georgina has been busy modelling the new tent model. There are now camp sites within Nomad, dotted around the map.

PLAYER BUILDING

Player building is now being planned and designed. It will be ready to be developed and implemented into the game within a few days. As I will be focusing on player building, the dev blog will mostly be quiet for a few days. Unless one of the team members have made something.

Will report on any progress.

Cleaning and world design.

WORLD

We’re still cracking on with developing the new world. More screenshots and news will follow when we have hit major milestones. Right now there is no point mentioning everyday that we’re working the new world.

Or we could provide screenshots everyday, that’s up to you. Leave us a comment down below if you would rather see daily screenshots, or screenshots when we hit milestones (for the world, of course).

HOUSE SPAWNERS

House spawners are in the game! Each set of buildings, be it residential, industrial or military will have its own loot table. House spawns are in and will generate loot.  A detailed loot table will be released when we hit a public release.

CLEANING UP THE PROJECT

Most of today has been spent cleaning up the project. If you do not already know, Nomad used to be a realistic game featuring realistic items, weapons, buildings and textures. I have now cleaned the project and deleted all the unwanted code and items from the old Nomad.

Some remain, but these are placeholder until we re-model the items.

HOUSE AND GENERAL PROPS pt2

Georgina has been busy working on general and house related props. As promised in the last update, here are some screenshots!

A fridge. It even spawns loot inside randomly. It even comes with it’s own loot table. That means loot that spawns in the fridge is different to loot that spawns in the house.

Table and chairs, complete with table lamp.

A double bed.

A wardrobe.

TORCH

The light from the torch now flickers.

BUG FIXES

Picking up items will no longer bug out if you didn’t open and close your inventory or in-game menu first.

You can no longer pick up items in the inventory or menu screen.

That’s it for today’s update. Remember you can follow the development of Nomad on our Twitch channel. We openly listen to suggestions and feedback and we even add your items in!
