Due to recent events with DDoSer’s, we’ve had to take certain measures to improve our security and add blacklisting support. Thanks for your patience during this time while we got everything in place and our apologies to those players who were affected. If you encounter any issues in the future, please [url=http://berserk-games.com/contact]send us a message[/url].
Now to some positive things we’ve added. We’re happy to announce that we have Tablet support for Mac users! Hurrah! You guys waited a long time and it’s finally here. Linux users - we don’t quite have it ready for you yet, but it’s in the works! We also have an early (beta) version of Touch support for Windows 7 and 8. Try it out and post your feedback on our [url=http://www.berserk-games.com/forums/forum.php]forums[/url]. There are a lot of great improvements in this update overall, so hope you enjoy and it makes your game play even more fun!

[h1][b]Dice Improvements:[/b][/h1][list]
[*] Rotate 'Q' and 'E' now increases or decreases the value of any dice (right = increase, left = decrease).
[*] Flip 'F' will increase the value on the dice just like rotate right.
[*] You cannot rotate the dice while holding them (to avoid people gaming rolls).
[*] This also works on all selected dice if you need to make changes to a group.
[*] You can still directly set the value of a dice by mousing over and typing the number.
[*] Mousing over a dice will now tell you its value as a tooltip.
[*] Custom models assumes it’s a d6; use the new custom dice templates if you want this to work with other custom dice.[/list]
[h1][b]UI:[/b][/h1][list]
[*] Added some blue question marks to certain menus that help explain what they do (more coming).
[*] Added pan camera to the controller help menu.
[*] Added a screen darkening effect when the '?' help menu is open to make it easier to read.
[*] Fixed some menus not being closed with 'Escape'.[/list]

[*] Added a slight camera shake when flipping the table.
[*] Held objects will now be highlighted based on the color that is moving them.
[*] 2d pointer now hides when you are alt zooming on an object to avoid blocking anything.

[*] Added a slight pulsing motion to color selection spheres to draw attention to them.
[*] Increased the size of snap points to make them easier to click on.
