Developer nex 416 Posted April 27, 2021 Developer Share Posted April 27, 2021 The big release of RSM V3 is now here! We have spent many hours preparing one of our largest updates yet, thoroughly testing it on our second server and preparing it for when the time comes to fully move-on from V2 with new features that greatly improve gameplay and bring new activities to participate in around the server. Update Highlights: Parties - You can now create and manage your very own party using the new parties system. Type /party (/p for short) to get started. Car Voting - Ever wanted to vote other players' vehicles at car meets? You can now do exactly that! Go to a meet zone and walk up to another players' stationary vehicle and some buttons will show at the bottom-right of your screen. Server Hub - We've redesigned the server hub to be more accessible and straightforward to new players, serving its purpose as a hub. You can access many of the important features of the server from this one interface now! Press F1 (by default) to access it anytime. Zone Improvements - Zones have improved functionality compared to before, with support for per-zone speed limiters and more. Currently, only a couple of zones have speed limiters applied - speed limiters are specially configured on a per-zone basis, and limit player vehicles depending on a few factors, such as distance. Server-wide Optimisation - We've spent time optimising and refactoring old code for better FPS for the players that need it the most. Aside from FPS improvements, other improvements were made that increase general performance across the server, resulting in less overall lag! Other QoL Improvements - We're now entering a new era of FiveM where it's becoming increasingly more useful to have certain keys be configurable. For example, you can now configure the key bindings of many features around the server via Settings > Key Bindings> FiveM. Full Changelog: Spoiler Added a vehicle voting system for car meet zones - see below for more information and a preview (by @nex & Logan) Added new background images to the loading screen (by @TXJ) Added vehicle slipstreaming between players - you can now tail other players and gain speed from their "slipstream" (by @nex) Added a new teleport to vMenu for the fruit stand on the mountain (by @TXJ) Added a new and improved server hub UI that is shown when you join the server (by @nex) Added a spacer to the main menu of vMenu for better organisation of features (by @StOneR) Added functionality to safe, meet and drift zones that disable horns and mutes sirens (by @nex) Added indicators to the interface tiles of the hub, showing the keys that can be used to open/close that interface (by @nex) Added tile hover animations for players that have the NUI fix enabled in their FiveM settings (by @nex) Added miniature tiles for toggling certain server features like passive mode, player names and drift smoke (by @nex) Added a speed limiter to all meet zones of 25 MPH (by @nex) Added an auto-freeze to your car when you exit from it at a car meet - this prevents people from successfully ramming it (by @nex) Added toasts (notifications) to the loading screen, indicating that certain supporter benefits have been applied and the number of vehicles that you have access to with your current supporter tier (by @nex) Added a notification to the loading screen for the final stage of the loading process, indicating that it can take a while before you fully connect - this is dependant on your connection and hardware (by @nex) Added the ability to configure the keys used by the emote menu - you can now re-bind these keys via ESC > Settings > Key Bindings > FiveM (by @nex) Added persistent saving of the favourite emote in the emote menu - after setting a favourite emote, you can reconnect to the server and be able to use it without it being reset and having to set it again (by @nex) Added a passive mode 'cooldown' period after using noclip - players who abuse noclip to get to places for PvP purposes will now have to wait for 30 seconds before engaging in combat (by @nex) Added ghosting to players that are noclipping - this was requested by a few people and we thought it was a pretty essential thing for noclip (by @nex) Added an improved system for blocking passive toggles. Passive overrides (previously called "blocks") will now stack, allowing for multiple restrictions (such as being in a passive lobby, using noclip recently, etc) to be active at the same time (by @nex) Added functionality for 'disabling' (greying-out) supporter vehicles that you don't have access to in vMenu (by @StOneR & @nex) Added more toxic/inappropriate language to auto-moderation filters (by @nex) Added a toggle for the anti-lag system to the server hub (by @nex) Added a lobby player count to lobby portals around the map (by @nex) Added statistics for engine temperature, oil level, and turbo boost percentage to the speedometer -

Thanks for everyone's patience during the testing and preparation of this update, and a HUGE shout out to all of those that submitted bug reports and suggestions that overall helped us develop and implement various features around the server. For the future, moving ahead with our plans for a better workflow, server #2 will be used (as it has been for the past few months!) as a staging server for testing upcoming updates to server #1. Server #1 will be receiving periodic and ironed-out updates that should have less bugs and more functionality due to the new 'staging' workflow that we'll be introducing. Thanks once again for the patience, expect more updates in the coming weeks! 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
