Spyjack, well known for his incredible use of NPC features in his "Tales of Terror" mod, has been hard at work since the initial launch of Greece on this huge NPC update!

Now available in-game these are some of the highest quality quests yet - from critical thinking puzzles (that still challenge him from time to time), to multi-stage construction, to some questlines with many alternative endings.







You can now make use of the rally racing tracks across Greece! Two Rally Car vehicle skins are now up on the Stockpile for purchase, the sales of which support the creators of Greece. The Greece Mystery Box has also been updated with a few new items.

By popular request Ireland has been extended to June 15th!

• Improved item despawn/respawn responsiveness. [May still need some tuning!]

In response to requests to improve the stability of updates, and in part to learn more Continuous Integration (CI) best practices for Unturned II this is the first update to use a new build process using CI: my laptop is now set up to download changes as I make them and check the changes for issues, for example whether the game is still able to load all of the maps, or if any asset errors are reported, or if some files are missing. If any of these steps fail the update can't be released, and I'll get an email notification that something is amiss. I've also improved the update release process to be more automatic and less error-prone.

With the addition of server thumbnails and short rich text descriptions I've decided to hide the icons that used to clutter up the server browser, instead allowing hosts to specify what they consider important information. The thumbnail should be a 32x32 .png and makes network affiliation recognition quicker. You can also use rich text formatting e.g. <b>, <i>, <color> in the short description underneath the server name. The in-game chat now supports plugins using 32x32 .png icons as well.

Several post process effects, specifically those for sun shafts and hallucinations dated back to Unity 3 and were written in JavaScript. These have been ported to C#, and the hallucination effects have been revamped to look more appealing.


This update has been a long time in the making! It's been a while since I've worked on 4.0 now, so I'll probably be putting some more focus back into that - especially to get the roadmap up soon. I've still got some important planned updates for 3.24.1.0 that I'll be prioritizing as well, such as re-investigating upgrading to a newer version of Unity.

Storm_Epidemic, Th3o, Diesel_Sisel and Misterl212 - creators of a ton of popular workshop content such as The Driftless are excited to unveil their latest project: Ireland!

Now available to play in-game officially for its debut, Ireland is very visually impressive with lots of new content and NPC questlines to explore. It will be featured until May 28th before becoming available on the workshop, though this may be extended pending your feedback!
