Today's patch has been a long time brewing; but we finally think we got things sorted out with this "blank/bluescreen" graphical error that some of you with heavier duty custom built PC's have been running into! Along with this, we've managed to fix a bunch of other nagging bugs that y'all have been helping us find in the forums! Take a look at the full list of fixes:
WARNING: This patch will create a CRC mismatch between versions, which means you won't be able to join anyone without this patch. Please allow time for others to download the patch themselves.
- Blank/Blue-screen menu bug should be fixed for most if not all of those having the problem!
- The Hammerhead shark and the Goblin shark should be able to deal damage again, and all other similar enemy types should be behaving a little more consistently!
- (Hopefully) fixed the problems people are having with desync on who's using the console (causing people to appear to be jumping around and others unable to use that console).
- Fixed the costume unlocking bug for clients! Now clients should be able to unlock costumes properly without having to host their own game. NOTE: May require players delete their data to work properly (From the main menu select Extras > Delete Save).
- Loading times should be slightly less lengthy; particle initialization now occurs AFTER connection. Should help slightly with connection success rates.
- Butcher Knife should be able to make Meat Chunks again!
- Fixed enemy sounds not playing for clients.
- Some difficulty balancing across all water types! Things should be ever so slightly tougher for early areas.
- Fixed Barnacle Biter and Barnacle Maw from spinning like crazy.
- Double clicking on a lobby will now automatically join the lobby.
