Enshrouded News

The revision of Hotfix #29 is STILL 729115

This hotfix should not trigger shader recompiling. Dedicated servers do not need to be updated.


⦁ Fixed the card cluster loader, which could cause several GPU crashes when attempting to load a world.


We are aware that many players are reporting exceedingly long VFX shader compilation times, and are working on these, along with many other improvements such as performance for lower-end computers, to add them to future updates.

Greetings, Flameborn!

Enshrouded was just part of the gamescom Opening Night Live showcase, and we teased what's coming next for Embervale! If an image is a thousand words, please feast your eyes on this short video, the equivalent of 1.8 million words that we're very proud of...

In case you missed it, while we're working on Update 7, we're also hosting a mini-games creation contest, where players are invited to build a mini-game and share it with us on our Discord! All the rules can be found here, and winners will get immortalized in the game, as well as win 100€ vouchers for our merch store!


That's all for today, but we think it's already quite a lot. We'll be back soon enough with more info and teasers about Update 7, but for now, we gotta keep cooking...

We hope you enjoy the rest of your summer, and we'll see you this fall!

The revision of Hotfix #28 is 729115

• Fixed an issue that could lead to an unloadable world when there were too many objects (we’re talking thousands, not hundreds!) placed in the player base. We changed the logic of how the objects are loaded, which should prevent games from being unloadable in the future.
  
• Fixed an issue that could cause building shapes to no longer function after placing and destroying a large number of Flame Altars.
  

We are aware that many players are reporting exceedingly long VFX shader compilation times, and are working on these, along with many other improvements such as performance for lower-end computers, to add them to future updates.
