0.3.6: The Integrity Update

THE INTEGRITY UPDATE

Leaderboards:

  • Leaderboard score entries are now uploaded to the tallowmere2.com web server, and then submitted to Steam afterwards.
  • Entries now contain extra debug info, including a copy of the saved game before death.
  • The server will retain the extra info for the best scores, in case investigation needs to be carried out later on.
  • If an entry fails to be submitted (due to network issues or other errors), the entry will remain within your account file. The game will attempt to upload again when available.
  • The server will reject entries from accounts that have received a ban.

Rulesets:

  • Ruleset 0.3.6 is the new default ruleset. There are no gameplay changes from the previous Ruleset 0.3.1 – this is just for the sake of clarity with the new Leaderboard process.

Online Co-op:

  • The game now checks account status with tallowmere2.com and VAC upon startup.
  • For Steam, servers now check with VAC to ensure players are in good standing.
  • Servers will reject connections from banned or unverified players.

GAMEPADS

macOS:

  • Improved gamepad support with macOS 12.5.
  • Upgrading to macOS 12.5 is recommended, as 12.5 fixes many Bluetooth gamepad issues.
  • InControl Native is now the recommended controller API module again.
  • For Steam, before launching the game, adjusting Tallowmere 2's properties to force Steam Input as "Disabled" is also recommended.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller:

  • Improved button glyphs.
  • Fixed an issue on macOS where the AB and XY buttons were backwards.

OTHER FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS

Inventory and Merchant menus:

  • Fixed a caching issue.

Bug reports:

  • Improved debug logging.
