Hey hey!
Well, we finally got here! V1.07 is quite the update, bringing with it some large additions, including many fixes, a whole new map with new gameplay challenges, the VCD: Shadow Warrior has been merged in and some new songs for the Big Banger (and by extension, the Soundtrack)!
Read on for a list of the changes:

- Fixed P.I.D of the body in Evil Science near the surgery stating it was eviscerated, despite there being no signs.

- Fixed an issue causing players to be unable to join servers hosting Original VCD levels unless they also had the House of Horror DLC.
- Fixed the Janitor Trunk lid not being attached to the trunk itself on clients.
