Updated cows and more.



Hey.

We got a lot of comments from you about the cows and their blocking on the fences. We had to fix it.

The problem mainly occurred when there were too many cows in one fence.

The cow AI was replaced along with the fence blocking repair. The cows should now behave better and come out when blocked.

We also improved some other mechanics and a slight change of balance will allow for a more addictive adventure.

We haven't added new content like new trees, plants or animals. This is our first live wallpaper game and we immediately assumed it would be simple, relaxing and cheap.

We are thinking about creating something new, similar to more content, but for now,, we have to publish MY WOLF on which we have been working for over a year. I highly recommend this project and I encourage you to add it to WISHLIST because it will premiere soon!

There was also an amendment to Planet Evolution as if someone interested. We have a really tight schedule ...

btw. I spend the last days in the hospital ..... my first son Victor was born! :D :...D :D

Please make the update. All should be better now. ;)

Thank you again for your feedback and suggestions.

Translations Help



Hey.


Yes, our translations are not great. We are a little team and it's really hard to fight with all words in many languages. Each is different and complicated. Maybe you would like to help?

We have a list in Excel file with all of the used words. This way will be much faster. It's a simple game so there is not much to do.

[h3]If you want to help:[/h3]
Please download the Excel file, fill with your language under "Translations" side by side.

Please use uppercase letters if they appear in the English version. Some of the words have only uppercase letters.

When all will be done, please send it to me at [h3][email protected][/h3] and say hello. :D

[h3]File to download is here: [/h3]

https://1drv.ms/x/s!AkAW1O8Ee78okD8lCm3awhc8XwTT?e=ADPnwj

[h3]!!! Do not edit an existing file, please.[/h3]

We can add more languages if needed. :D

Thank you for your support.

The BIG update 4



Hi,


Yes, The BIG update 3 had to be the last one but we had to tweak a few things and add requests of our supporters.

By my mistake, the previous versions didn't check and set your Windows settings properly. Some people had a problem with control over the game. This problem has gone. Every system will be checked now. The game will set everything for you, just follow the steps if the wrong setting will be detected. DesktopFarm needs it to work as interactive wallpaper.

[h2]List of changes:[/h2]

[h3]Updated Chinese language.[/h3]
Thanks to one of our user from China we could improve translations.
The full list of used words is published in the News section. Fill it if you want to help us with your language. Thanks!

[h3]Proper System check.[/h3]
The game will detect your Windows10 settings and will change it if needed.

[h3]Steam Connect fix.[/h3]
Fixed Steam Connects. Uncheck it and turn off and on the game. Desktop Farm status will be hidden on Steam.

[h3]Clear road.[/h3]
Now you can build a road without any lines.

[h3]Camera rotation and angle fix.[/h3]
Now the camera rotation will be more smooth. Changing angle will keep the camera level to avoid upside-down position.

[h3]Camera reset icon.[/h3]
Now you have the icon to reset camera angles.

[h3]Map reset warning.[/h3]
Now you will see a warning before you reset the entire game.

Probably something more....


Thank you for all information, feedback and ideas.

Best Regards

The BIG update 3



Hi.


We have another patch package for you. This will probably be the last BIG update as everything has fixed.

[h2]The current update includes:[/h2]

[h3]- Change the camera angle.[/h3]
Now you can rotate the camera with the right mouse button. You can change the camera tilt angle with the middle mouse button.

[h3]- We improved restoring the previous wallpaper.[/h3]
Fixed a bug where the game would restore your previous background, mainly a solid colour.

[h3]- We fixed the cows.[/h3]
We have slightly changed the way we pay for them and loading them after the sale.

[h3]- We improved road construction.[/h3]
The icons have been fixed.

Probably something else, but I don't remember now.

Thanks for reporting bugs, issues or interesting ideas. :D

Peace,

3DM

The BIG update 2



Hey.


The project turned out to be quite a success so we got more feedback from you with new ideas and bug fixes. We are very grateful for any suggestions or reporting bugs.

What we improved/fixed:


[h3]- The saving system is new.[/h3]
Unfortunately, there was a problem with the fencing, so a new recording system was created to avoid this problem.

[h3]! We recommend restarting the map from the menu.[/h3] The reset will restart the wallpaper! then you will lose your current farm. We do not require it but recommend that you restart the map.

[h3]- The auto pause system is new.[/h3]
We've improved game pause so you have full computer power for your normal games. When you enable them, DesktopFarm will save and stop. After returning to the desktop, Desktop Farm will start working again.

[h3]Automatic pause recognizes most games but some require pausing from the main menu.[/h3]

[h3]-Grow plants and cows.[/h3]
We have slightly improved the system responsible for growing plants and cows.
The system is so efficient that it will allow you to quickly harvest your crops and earn money.

[h3]-Sliding and removing the house.[/h3]
Now you can move and delete the main house. The improved system will allow the house to be better adapted to the map.


-probably some more and new update will be soon.


FAQ
DesktopFarm doesn't work.
Windows 10 needed.

Can't manage the game.
Don't use any live wallpaper before. Restart Windows if you had some. They block our wallpaper to run.

Fences fixed?
Yes, fixed. Use your map but we recommend to start a new map.


All these corrections were made possible with your help.
Thank you very much. :D

If something is wrong, please write and we will certainly quickly correct it.
