[h2]Necesse Version 1.0 Frequently Asked Questions[/h2]

Can I still use my old characters in Necesse 1.0?

• Yes.

Can I still use my old world in Necesse 1.0?

• With the new world generation in Necesse 1.0, you have to migrate your old world into the new world generation. It essentially means that you'll insert your old islands/settlement into the new world generation. If you'd like to see how this works, our lead developer Mads showcases it live in action in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70iLS_noXc8&t=87
Do my mods still work with Necesse 1.0?

• Most mods likely won't work on the launch of 1.0, seeing as we've made a lot of changes to the Necesse codebase. Our modders usually get the mods up and running again within a couple of weeks though. Shoutout to our modders :)

Is Necesse going to keep getting updates after version 1.0?

• Yes. We've still got a lot of cool stuff planned and will share a new roadmap soon!
