[h1]GREETINGS![/h1] We’ve pushed a patch to public beta. In this beta we are looking to confirm that: [olist] [*] Nothing that was working before has broken [*] Save files are intact for all players [*] The Interloper A controller crash is fixed [*] Graphics options are set, and stay set in the options menu [/olist] [h2]We’ve also:[/h2] [list] [*] Fixed Moss shaders and direction control for both vertex lit shader and skin shader (for props with/without phong) [*] Fixed halflambert/warp/specwarp related problems across all the shaders [*] Unlocked the even higher graphics setting in options menu [*] Fixed video settings not staying set [*] SpotLight cookies should now work on any orientation. Cookie sprite sheet no longer needs to be square. [*] Local lights shadow sampling optimized. They now look better & should be faster on the highest settings. [*] Deferred lighting and NewPostProcess stability and support improved [*] Lots of misc graphics fixes [*] Updated translation files with community fixes [*] Added missing Italian translators Riccardo Rapuano and Andrea Franceschi [/list] [h2][i][b]You can access the beta by right-clicking the game on Steam, going to Properties > Betas > select “public-beta” in the dropdown menu.[/b][/i] [/h2] Sorry for the time away, but we have been focused on other things, and it was a massive effort to overhaul our deployment system. This centralized the source control and build systems for the game, and allows us to better maintain and release builds of the game. Our goal is to get a [i]“safe” [/i]mini patch up on beta and thoroughly test it. We will push it to the mainline once we know it won’t break anything. After that we may do a more involved patch that might break saves due to level edits. We’ll make sure to let everyone know if we release a more dangerous patch (remember you can always restart the chapter if something breaks). [h2]So with that, some questions:[/h2] [list] [*] What are some high priority issues with the game you would like to see fixed? [*] What should we call the mini patch and its follow-ups? Internally, we are calling it the [h3][i]Necro Patch…[/i][/h3] [/list] [h2]Thanks for all your support! Be good to one another![/h2] [i][h3]-Crowbar Collective Team[/h3][/i]
