A medium-sized update with a couple more cool changes.

Television
You'll be happy to hear that the television has received a long-awaited update.

• Full YouTube URL's are now supported. (we may be adding support for other sources in the future)
• Previously device-blocked videos are now supported.
• TV's can now be paused at a specific time rather than fully stopping
• Buddy's with 'Physgun props' access can now change the video / pause the video.
• Shooting the TV pauses the video (to deter annoying TV's whilst raiding)
• Video timestamps are now supported.

House alarms

• Unowned properties now have house alarms.
• Crowbars instantly trigger the house alarm.
• Bobby pins breaking now have a chance of...

Just another update that is mainly meant to improve the mechanics and feel of the server.

Melee weapons now use a much better method for detecting whether or not you hit someone. Previously you could only ever hit someone with any melee weapon if you directly looked at them while clicking. Now there's a lot of room for you to hit someone as long as the person you are trying to hit is in the range of the swing of your weapon.

This will also affect fists, as well as their functions such as dragging/pushing, which means it should be much easier pushing someone trying to run away, or dragging someone who is constantly moving.

Since this change will severely improve melee weapons and as a result they might currently be overpowered, so if that is the case we will change the balancing soon.

We also finally added the katana that Xquality made ages ago but never added because we didn't know how to...

Just a small update today with a few cool changes

1. Almost completely rewrote the event system

As you can see it is now extremely easy for the senior administration to setup events, and they should be very robust now too. This means we can now have events a lot more often than before.
Furthermore the new system is easy to extend, which means we can add quite a few fun events by writing only a few lines of code. So you'll probably see some new small but cool events soon.

2. The SWAT Van is now destructible
This has been requested for a very long time and finally it has been implemented. While the SWAT van is still significantly stronger than a regular car, it can probably be taken down by an org if they have...

Today the staff team had a full meeting to discuss matters the community wanted dealing with, aswell as other's we felt had to be changed. Below they'll be listed, we hope you're happy with the changes, of course if you have any concerns or queries let us know, have a good day everyone.

• Construction booklet has been removed for the time being, it will stay in the F1 menu however user's are free to ignore this entirely.
• 2.5 has been reworded and slightly changed, take a look.
• 3.8 has been adjusted.
• 3.10 has had the booklet reference removed.
• 4.8 has been edited, take a look.
• Bans - Any user who has been banned longer than a period of 6 months, who hasn't been toxic, cheated, ddos'd or negatively impacted the server in a large way, has been unbanned. We realised that a lot of staff were simply placing users on a permanent ban for simply jumping off...

Today's update is a big one and it touches something that hasn't really changed since the very release of Perpheads: Drugs, specifically the planted ones, i.e. Marijuana and Cocaine.

We completely revamped the current system while trying not to overwhelm the community with a very hard to use system.

The changes include:

• Single pots lose their ability to grow drugs in; they are now merely a container to be used in bigger planter boxes. The model has also been updated to match a real planting pot
  Spoiler: New pot model

  
• The big pots have been repurposed into basic planter boxes
  Spoiler: New planter box

  
  • Basic planters are supposed to give everyone a growing experience that closely resembles the way it was before.
  • Instead of...

Hi everyone, earlier on today the staff team brought up all their concerns regarding rules and changes have been made. These rules are now added and in full effect so be sure to check them out to gain a full understanding of them. If you have any concerns then contact either me or bolli and we will review them as soon as possible!

• Rule 3.3 - Realistic actions - Furthermore, players should take great care whilst climbing. Players should not attempt to boost people onto buildings or structures, nor should they climb onto objects which realistically would not hold their weight.<Addition

• Rule 3.20 - Disconnecting from the server - Players should also wait at least 10 minutes prior to leaving the server after committing a crime; this does not apply if the crime has been resolved (player has been arrested / caught for this crime). <Addition...

Hey,

As everyone should be able to see we upgraded our forum software to XenForo 2 today. XenForo 2 was released more than half a year ago and since now most of our critical addons have been ported over to the new software, we decided to upgrade the forums too.

The forums use the same style as before, but unfortunately there is no dark theme available for it yet, which means anyone who liked those themes has to wait a little longer. However, the blue theme is already available, so feel free to use that one if you so desire.

Unfortunately there has not been any commenting addon, and it does not appear that anyone is working on one at the moment, so waiting any longer before upgrading would not have made any sense. The comments still exist (just not visibly so) and once we find an addon, or write one ourselves (@Samuel, @ayjay ツ ) comments will be gone.

Teamspeak 3 integration is not available for XenForo 2 yet but will be ported over very...

It's that time of year again, the PERPHeads Community Awards - It's the fourth year we've been running these awards, and it's quite amazing to see the changes this community has gone through during that time. We've seen a lot of people join us, lots of people leave, and some people return.

This year we've seen a lot of updates:
Halloween Update
Bank Robbery Update
Couch, Sofa and Bed Update
Poker Update
Courier Update

Rule Changes

Similar to last year's halloween update you will be able to grow pumpkins using seeds you can buy at the Betrunkener Drache pub.

You can then use your grown pumpkins to either craft Jack O'Lanterns or convert them into a package of candy.
Unlike last year's event, you might not want to eat all your candy at once, as it will definitely prove useful on halloween.

I want to give a big shoutout to @Carrot, who helped us revamp the old pumpkin model and also made the model for the JackO lantern. What the candy will be useful...

After lots of preparing and development, we have finally finished something we've been keeping a secret for a while now! You can now head down to the Hungriges Schwein Casino to play a game of Poker, rules of this type of poker follow Texas Hold'em.

To join the table, press E on a chair.

And adjusted a few things with the new courier job:

New Courier System
The Courier system has been updated! You can now enjoy a re-worked system which features some cool new additions to how the old system worked, with also an addition of scripted contract jobs from stores and NPC’s across the city!

Head to the Delivery Warehouse to sign up for the job!
(Two Couriers can now be in service, rather than the one slot before)


Wait for an order from another player, or an NPC.
The text message you receive will display the order value and where you’ll...

Hey everyone, tonight the staff team conducted a meeting and discussed the current rules and what changes should be made, below i'll list what changes have either been recently changed, or changed tonight:

Bank robberies have received a complete overhaul in how they work and how much they will reward participants. You will need to speak with the drug dealer who can get you in contact with someone.

After a brief period you will be texted by this person and told to wire their bank account $5000 to get the heist underway.

Afterward, you’ll be requested to gather a crew who...
