Unity 6
We've upgraded the engine from Unity 2022 to Unity 6, which means new lighting and performance improvements!
Along with this transition, we took the opportunity to try to optimize Farwood and Seaholm - reducing the amount of objects while keeping visual fidelity. Performance seems to have improved a bit here
We are looking to implement AI upscaling (i.e. DLSS and FSR) to further boost performance for compatible devices
New Bag Slots & QoL
The new "Pouch" slots have been added, which open up the current "Belt" slots to hold lanterns, tools, weapons, etc.
The new "Special Bag" slot has been added, which will be used for earnable bags like and enchanting or herb bag, and more
Backpacks and Waist Bags will now seamlessly swap when you drag a larger bag onto your existing bag - no more throwing them on the ground!
UI/UX Improvements
Context Menus should no longer spawn outside of screen bounds
When dragging an equippable item, all viable equipment slots will be highlighted with a glowing border in the character window (was previously only main slots)
Performance improvements for Spell Slots and Info Bars
The chat panel has had the chat type wrapped in brackets and player names have had the bold text setting removed
When hitting a monster, a small impact effect will play, giving visual feedback to attacks
Keybinds
For anyone who likes to use Q and E for strafe movement, we've added these keybinds to the settings menu 🫡
The camera can now be rotated in 360 degree camera mode with keybinds
Miscellaneous
- Chisme went through and added interesting and fun spells/attacks to the Old Mines mobs. This should make the dungeon a bit more exciting to complete!
