v3.0.1b - RELEASED 7 FEBRUARY 2026
TOWER FALL IMPROVEMENTS:
Made prey animals respect the same map barriers as the player-wolf.
If player's territory extends to the edge of the map, they can now unlock the Move Along! achievement by chasing a vehicle to that point on the road.
Prevent skulls from spawning just beyond western borders.
Moved some scent posts on south end of map into player-navigable area. (Only takes effect in new games.)
Vehicle performance optimizations and pathfinding refinements.
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS:
During courtship, howling no longer generates hearts from mate candidates. (Was mistakenly enabled at some point in the past.)
Valley fog: Refinements to fog appearance, made fog state saved in save games, and prevent fog from rendering when with newborn pups.
Corrections and improvements to some text translations.
Added "Show Password" option on the Reset Password panel, to prevent typos from going unnoticed.
TOWER FALL BUGS FIXED:
Pronghorn family flocks and mother-calf flocks don't spawn on Tower Fall.
Occasionally some big rocks turn pink after season transition.
If you play through the seasons, come Early Spring you are unable to sleep, and in particular situations the game may not allow saving.
Some multiplayer intro texts describe Hellroaring instead of Tower Fall map.
Young wolf pups (before Growing Pups quest) will walk through vehicles.
NPC pathfinding issues at several dens.
On Basic Vegetation mode, some trees grow in Tower Creek.
One segment of the Yellowstone River flows uphill.
At several rendezvous sites, colliders don't align properly with rendezvous rock.
Campground road has no snow in winter.
Ghost vehicles can be heard on the Grand Loop Road in winter.
Bear Culvert Trap is absent in winter season.
Some issues with pathfinding and rendering at a few dens and rendezvous sites.
OTHER BUGS FIXED:
Hellroaring Mountain: Antelope marsh has no marsh grass in fall season.
Confusing notification appears if player tried to reset passwords for both WQ 2.7 and WQ:AE accounts but does not have a WQ 2.7 account.
Game Settings: Difficulty: If default difficulty was not Easy but the player let Setup New Game dropdown on Easy, the game would start with the default difficulty.
Password reset panel can get stuck onscreen if player submits reset password code and new password but with nonexistent username.
In some cases, upgrade a WQ 2.7 account to a WQ:AE account causes an error and freezes the game.
Many minor terrain and water issues.
