Hey all,
A new build is now available.
This is close to the final build that we'll release before we exit Early Access.
WORK REMAINING
- A few more languages translations.
- Anything that you guys bring up from this build, as there are a few "under the hood" changes.
- New material for the store for launch
LEAVING EARLY ACCESS INFORMATION
<EDIT TO MAKE SURE IT IS CLEAR - THE BELOW PRICE INFORMATION IS ON OUR INTENT ON THE PRICE POINT FOR NEW PURCHASES - PEOPLE WHO HAVE BOUGHT DURING EARLY ACCESS DO NOT HAVE TO REPURCHASE>
When we leave Early Access, the current plan (subject to change) is:
- Price will increase to $14.99USD (and equivalent for other territories)
- For the first week out of Early Access, we'll look to doing a 10% Off Full-Launch sale (so $13.49USD price) - which will still give a wallet benefit to those of you who have supported the game during Early Access.
- Our current thoughts are that we will not put the game on sale for greater than a 20% discount, for the first 3 months of full release, to ensure that anybody who supported us during Early Access is not out of pocket.
CHANGES IN THIS BUILD
GRAPHICS- Added threaded rendering support to reduce CPU use on rendering - should help framerate on a wide variety of hardware configurations - but there may be some artefacts we've missed fixing; so please let us know any issues
- Fixed some objects that were not correctly shadowing
- Added collision test against SNOW to keep camera out of the snow.
- Tweaks to the ssao on snow level
- Fix for bad window position when window got tabified.
- Made the SSAO a little more subtle/blended
STEAM- Translated all achievements (EFIGS)
- Translated store pages (EFIGS)
- Updated recommended PC specifications on the Store page
MISC- Potential fix for game unable to start due to steam client not found.
- Translation fixes for German
- Translation fixes for the "Steam Client not running" popup (had the header text in the detail and detail text in the header)
- Fixed large memory leak in loading DDS files.
- Added new Krome Logo movie at 720p
- Changed boot screen to say we're in BETA not ALPHA
Again, thanks to everybody for their support.
If there are any problems, please let us know as per usual, so that we can sort things out.
Almost there! Bush Rescue is calling! :)
