Build Notes for Version 1.01.15

NOTE: No Sensor is Required.
You do NOT need a biofeedback sensor to play Nevermind. Without a sensor, the biofeedback-specific features will be unavailable, but the core game itself will be fully playable.

Updates:

• Major Bug Fix: Heart Rate Companion App Not Quitting Reliably and Logging Additional Hours Played
Per our announcement last week, shortly after launch we discovered a bug in which the Heart Rate Companion App (a necessary component of Nevermind’s biofeedback capabilities that launches alongside the game) wouldn’t consistently close when the game quit and - as a result - would inadvertently log hours played in the background. We are so sorry for not having caught this earlier and have spent the days since focusing on finding a suitable fix and testing the build to ensure it’s in good shape for this update. Although we have tested the build extensively already, in our efforts to make this critical bug fix available as soon as possible, it’s possible that there may be some outstanding bugs that will still need to be addressed. If any new issues are discovered, we will be sure to push a follow-up patch in the immediate future to resolve any subsequent issues.
• Bug Fixes: Controller Input
You can now freely switch between mouse/keyboard and controller input while playing the game. Additionally, Nevermind supports left-handed mouse configurations.

Notes and Disclaimers:

• Windows 7 Support:
Nevermind is playable on Windows 7, although it is not fully supported. Windows 7 users may experience some instability.
• Mio LINK Users:
Bluetooth connectivity works only on Windows 8, 8.1, and 10. At this time, the Mio Link is the only sensor that uses Bluetooth connectivity. To pair a Mio LINK with a Windows 7 machine, please use an ANT+ USB stick.
• Companion App:
To support non-RealSense heart rate devices (e.g. The Mio, Garmin Chest Strap, etc.) on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, & 10 environments, Nevermind makes use of a small companion app called the Nevermind Heartrate Companion. This companion application is opened and closed by the game, and can be found as a taskbar icon next to the clock during play. This companion application uses network protocols to communicate with Nevermind. Because of this, the companion app may cause a security warning on Windows and/or some anti-virus software. We assure you this companion app is completely safe, and you can allow it access to the system's network. There are currently no plans or means to support Bluetooth heart rate devices on Windows 7.
• Fear UI:
To see an on-screen indicator of your “fear level,” go into the Options menu and select “Fear UI On.” (Note: option only appears if playing with a supported biofeedback sensor).
• First Person Control Familiarity:
Nevermind uses standard “first person” controls (WASD/arrows and mouse). Familiarity with this control scheme is recommended.
