This is an experimental patch since I wasn't able to reproduce the crashes introduced in Update #10 Patch 3 myself. Since Patch 3's slicing improvements were multi-threaded, I presumed the crashes were related to sub-threads trying to read info from the main thread which isn't supported in Unity. Again, operating under assumptions but hopefully this will fix it. Let me know if you still experience any issues.
The star of this patch is the improved chopping/slicing behavior, faster and heavier hits are now better at slicing, as they should be. Additionally, a lot of errors got fixed including the fatal error that caused crashes to desktop, full VR runtime crashes or even blue screens,

Additionally, a lot of errors got fixed including the fatal error that caused crashes to desktop, full VR runtime crashes or even blue screens, and the performance was somewhat improved.

I'd like to start off by apologizing for the bug I accidentally introduced last update that caused some of the remaining enemies to not be counted as dead. I didn't catch it during my testing and truth be told, I couldn't reproduce it deliberately either. I made my best educated guesses as to what the cause might be and hopefully that has been enough to fix it. If not, I added some safeguards that will force kill any remaining enemies, thus allowing you to complete the mission and preventing soft locks.
Thanks for hanging in there!
I'm gonna try to improve the chopping behavior next so stronger hits wouldn't bounce off, right now it's kind of a crapshoot.
I figured out why the sharp weapons sometimes bounce instead of chop, particularly in the case of fast attacks. Essentially it tries to resolve the collision even if it should chop. With lower velocities, the bounce is not strong enough to override the chop/stab calculations but
I figured out why the sharp weapons sometimes bounce instead of chop, particularly in the case of fast attacks. Essentially it tries to resolve the collision even if it should chop. With lower velocities, the bounce is not strong enough to override the chop/stab calculations but once they get fast enough, it bounces away with enough force to interrupt the chopping on the same frame.
The physics engine is working against me here so I'll have to wrangle the contacts on a lower level which will take a bit longer than a simple patch. Nevertheless, I hope this patch fixes at least a few of the issues you're having with this update.
This was one of the hardest updates I've tackled so far. The logic behind it all broke my brain more times than I can count and all the features took more care to implement than I anticipated. Making the framework behind the new sharp weapons already took a while, implementing it
This was one of the hardest updates I've tackled so far. The logic behind it all broke my brain more times than I can count and all the features took more care to implement than I anticipated. Making the framework behind the new sharp weapons already took a while, implementing it for each and every existing (and new) sharp melee weapon made the process take even longer.
I hope the result makes up for the long wait since the previous update. And as always, if you notice any issues, be sure to let me know! There's bound to be a few bugs I missed even with rigorous testing due to the sheer scale of the overhaul.
Changelog: Bullet holes, slash wounds and blunt trauma now have gore textures in addition to blood Wounds are now dynamic and not decal based Blood on bodies and the environment can receive more details (no longer completely bloody or not bloody at all but has blending instead) G
Happy holidays, everyone! Changelog: Music! Featuring 3 original tracks, one in the main menu and two for the missions. Expect additional tracks in the future. Completely overhauled audio system. Firearms sound louder, punchier and echo better Improved impact sounds for all melee
Happy holidays, everyone!
- I had to go over each and every object in the game for this so I may have missed something. If you notice some discrepancies or errors, do let me know.
I'd like to start off by apologizing for the long gap since the last update. Life got real busy really quickly but it seems likely that I'll have a bit more time from now on. In any case, I hope you enjoy the update despite it being on the smaller side! Happy Halloween! Changelog

This time I've managed to fit a few suggestions in this update and fixed some of the most glaringly obvious and common issues.
This was supposed to be a small update with only a spectator camera but I didn't like the way the player looked, so smooth and shiny... So I wound up making a whole cosmetic overhaul, including new hats for both enemies and the player, different glasses for both and a few new out
This was supposed to be a small update with only a spectator camera but I didn't like the way the player looked, so smooth and shiny... So I wound up making a whole cosmetic overhaul, including new hats for both enemies and the player, different glasses for both and a few new outfits, that now have to be purchased. This adds a ton of variety and personality to the enemies so your odds of seeing the "same" NPC are much lower now.
Anyway, now that the framework is in place, making new cosmetics should be a breeze and further additions are to be expected.

This update has been a long time coming, physics-based slides and bolts did not seem feasible for the longest time but now we have 'em. Keep in mind that while I did test it out on every weapon at least once, there may still be a few bugs here or there where the weapon might not behave quite as you'd expect. Just let me know if you encounter anything like that and I'll do my best to quickly fix it.
In addition to this, scopes have finally been fixed (at least I sure hope so, seemed to work in my tests), bone breaking got another pass and stats are now tracked and shown in the Main Hub.
And last but not least, not a gameplay changing update in any way but there's new art for the game on the Steam Store page and in the Library, which, in my opinion, is a bit nicer than the previous version was.
Revolvers still work the way they used to but with this in my arsenal now, I should be able to make an even better, more physics-based version of them soon.

Added support for firearm modding
Greatly increased the stability of enemies - Also includes the helmets and accessories
Improved the stumbling and staggering of enemies (less likely to simply fall on their arse)
Tactical Shotgun and Stockless Tactical Shotgun
Melee enemies now keep attacking you if you haven't moved out of range
Reworked the recoil of some weapons, mainly automatic ones (AK and M16 can now be semi-reasonably one-handed)
The death menu now moves with you to prevent soft-locks (for example, dying while falling left the death menu higher than it was possible to reach)
Player body collision with dead bodies and dismembered pieces disabled to allow smoother movement
Added safeguards to respawn the player back to the start when falling out of the map (this might still fail if the culprit is a particularly violent physics explosion)
Bones no longer disappear upon dismembering the enemies. This leads to bones sticking out of sliced or busted open body pieces
Reduced the shininess of blood in order to improve the visuals and hopefully performance
Player hands can now get bloody
Caving body parts in with blunt weapons takes weight into account more, thus enabling deeper and wider wounds
Fixed the dreaded bloom glitch
Fixed the spawns in the Church level
Reduced the brightness of the back room floor of the Church
Fixed melee enemies in the Office
Fixed the respawn mechanic when jumping out of a window in the Office level
Melee mods can now be uploaded without having to revert to a previous branch
Fixed the Lobby level's pillars
Fixed kick force upgrades
Changed the strength of recoil in slow-motion to prevent larger forces than intended
Fixed the charging handles of both M82 sniper rifles
Fixed dismembered pieces getting stuck in your hands if you hold them while chopping it up more than once (probably, might still have some edge cases)
Enemies still take a bit too long to stand up but at least they appear to get up every time now
Fixed modded shotguns not working
Fixed the mod map loader not working under certain circumstances
Be sure to check out the workshop, there are some really cool firearm mods already out there, made by fuzzymanboob420, and you no longer have to be on the experimental branch to use them!
And, as always, if you find any bugs, be sure to let me know and I'll do my best to squash 'em.

This has been a long time coming. The idea has been taking shape for quite a while in my head and I finally felt the theory was solid enough to start building upon it. So here we are, enemies that properly react to getting shot and hit. They don't just fall to the ground when dying or becoming unbalanced but rather stumble and stagger.
However, do keep in mind that this is the first iteration so it might still have some bugs or unintended behaviors and expect further improvements and polishing in future updates.
Changelog: Enemy upper bodies now have a more accurate collider. Should have more reliable behavior with wounds, flowing blood and overall collision accuracy. Enemies now have flowing blood from their wounds again Dynamic objects now receive blood splatters again Mission progress
The workshop expands! Now supporting map and prop mods with a nice Spawn Gun overhaul to support mod prop spawning along with all the base game physics items! In addition to this, I've upgraded Unity to a new major version, which is also part of why this update took so long. But
The workshop expands! Now supporting map and prop mods with a nice Spawn Gun overhaul to support mod prop spawning along with all the base game physics items!
In addition to this, I've upgraded Unity to a new major version, which is also part of why this update took so long. But in exchange we've got much better physics with much less mid-air stuttering, overall performance has improved a little and some small graphical improvements at little to no additional performance cost.
And probably some small bugs that I may have happened to overlook during playtesting, make sure to let me know in the comments or on the Discord server if you find any.
The barrier of entry for map and prop modding ought to be lower than it was for melee weapons so if you're at all interested, check out the BRUTALISTICK VR Official Modding Framework. Looking forward to what you guys create!
