Hey, I have a question. My players are reporting that this mod changed the weather for players individually and not everyone has the same weather. Is that how it's supposed to work? Thank you.

Thank you Rage, so the last update fixed it if I understood well in the patch notes

This is happening for me too.

For me, the temperature of the player is logical (in summer, in winter, etc...) but every 2/4 secondes the temp increase at the middle and return to its normal state.... everywhere, in houses, outside, etc... did I miss something ?

Old Man Vape this is an issue i know of with players being close to fires when heat buff is active but for basic weather patterns like Calm Day then i suggest you set the global temperature to false so that vanilla temperature is applied. I will be looking patch it soon

anyone else having heat buffer issues since update like standing a fire or fire barrel just flashes red and + flashes but then goes down buffer never goes up

I would suggest just looking at what is different and editing yours.

hey Rage, love the mod and used it for some time now. I have my own tweaks to the json config, with the new update, can I just use my own version or do I need to start again on the included base file in the dayzoffline.chernarus folder?

Madam.e this must be run server side if you are not then the players and your server will get crashes when joining your server.
