Hey everyone!
We've been releasing some patches for the game before the big update, that will mark the end of Early Access. A lot of things have been improved, and soon we'll bring full controller support along with full Steam Deck compatibility. All of this is done in advance in small updates so we can be sure it will work on launch day.
Additions and Major Improvements
New non-directional lightmapping and optimized packing to save memory (expensive these days) while looking pretty much the same. Also increased sample counts for higher quality.
Better lightmap filters and compression to get rid of artifacts and seams.
Pre-generated item icons that look better and make things run faster.
New fog that blends with the outlines
Fixes
Fixed fog not being visible.
Fixed tutorial not being completable.
Fixed slide visuals
Fixing housing mode and property spawners
Fixed some random floating particles
Fixed some weapon visuals that had disappeared
Fixed a ton of tiny other things
We'll be back soon with more updates, and soon enough the big update will arrive. Until then. we will have to noot on.
Noot noot!
