[h2]Peaks of Yore - Patch 1.8.1[/h2]

This patch has a few updates and miscellaneous bugfixes, as well as adding support for DLC content, so be sure to check it the updates below.

[h2]Updates[/h2]

• Added DLC support.
  
• Changed default hotkey for "Restart Map" to F5.
  
• Adjusted the audio volumes on the sea in Great Gaol and Lightning in Cromlech.
  
• Increases the random wait times slightly between attacks from birds in Wally and Avian Chaos mode.
  
• Added an additional visual UI text cue to let you know which crampons you are currently wearing.
  
• 6-Point crampons force has been slightly nerfed to reduce confusion between the upgraded version and make the upgrade to 10-Point seem like more of an actual upgrade. 10-Point crampons remain unchanged.
• Removed auto time attack score migration to prevent previous scores being written over when using another PC. This would cause issues with saves when using Steam Cloud. Time Attack Migration can be accessed in Main Menu > Options > Misc Options > Migrate Old Scores.

• Fixed a issue with the barometer not showing UI in the cabin after acquiring it.
  
• Fixed a bug with the chalkbag not being visible in the cabin after acquiring it.
  
• Fixed a issue with chalk and bird seed tooltips appearing even though HUD was turned off.
  
• Fixed a issue with toggle climbing when using Free Aim. Arms should now only start freeaiming after the initial reach out.
  
• Fixed the vertical rotation of items during item cleaning to be more intuitive.
  
• Fixed a bug with avian modes UI in the main menu.
  
• Fixed a slightly incorrect slope angle check when securing yourself to the wall with crampons.
  
• Fixed a visual bug with the smoking pipe in the Northern Outpost cabin.
  
• Fixed a visual bug on Evergreen's End.
  
• Fixed a bug with Wally summits not being reset when dying in YFYD.
  
• Fixed an issue where you would still tumble after a fall when stopped in the air by a rope.
  
• Fixed a visual bug with crampons in the cabin displaying as 10pt, even if you hadn't earned them.
  
• Miscellaneous visual fixes on a few Great Gale maps.
  

[h2]Alps Hotfix 1.8.1a[/h2]

• Fixed an issue with time attack resetting on Seaside Tribune.
  
• Fixed an issue with the NPC Dialogue not having enough space for the text.
  
• Fixed an issue with ice axes in the Alps cabin.
  
• Fixed a few collision issues on Tutor's Tower and Mara's Arch.
  
• Fixed an issue with new categories showing in the time attack deletion menu.
  

[h2]Alps Hotfix 1.8.1b[/h2]

• Fixed a bug with some collectibles being invisible.
  
• Fixed an issue with Brick holds.
  

[h2]Returning after playing long ago?[/h2]

If you are returning after playing a long while ago, you might need to Migrate your old save to the new Save Slot system.

To do this, you will get a prompt to do so once you go to Begin > Normal Playthrough > Migrate Old Save.

If the "Migrate Old Save" doesn't show up and the slot says "0% COMPLETION", Delete the slot.
After deleting the slot, the Migrate prompt should show up if you have an old save file stored.

NOTE:
You can only migrate old save data to the new system if you have a "peaksSaveData.dat" file in the location below:
Copy & Paste the path below into windows search, then press 'Enter'.
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\TraipseWare\Peaks of Yore

Should you run into trouble with the new save files "PeaksData_Normal_0.es3", then you can use the backup files which are stored in the same location:
"Peaks of Yore\Mode_Normal\PeaksData_Normal_0.es3.bac".
Simply remove the ".bac" extension in order to use the backup file.
