Hollywood Animal News

Hello!


- Fixed UI bugs on the list of technologies.
- Fixed a bug that was causing a technology's economy upgrade to not make it cheaper.
- Fixed a few bugs that were causing characters to unreasonably refuse to work with your studio.
- Repair of Services no longer takes away services already issued to employees.
- Some balance tweaks to negotiations.
- Some improvements to Japanese fonts.
- 10 Trading Cards & Emoticons, 5 Backgrounds and Badges are available now.

Hello!

- The speed of the animations for production stages windows and the negotiation window is now dynamic: if you use them several times in a short period of time, they speed up significantly.
- Fixed the prisoner achievement.
- Fixed a situation where the game was spamming you with messages after you refused to cooperate with the KKK.
- Fixed an issue where the maintenance department head did not get a new level after completing a technology upgrade.
- A few tweaks to the genre balance.

See you tomorrow with the next one!

Hello!

- Resolved some issues with the save system, which in some situations prevented the game from properly digesting save files when you launch the game after an update.
- You can no longer fire characters whose contract you've already paid for up front (firing them gives the false impression that you're saving something on it, and leads to confusion). In future updates, we're going to add an upgrade that will allow you to fire such characters early and get back some of the cost for the remaining days/films. This way the system will be more clear.
- Fixed a bug where story character portraits were used when generating characters.
- Fixed a bug that could cause some upgrade bonuses to be lost after loading a save.
- Fixed bugs that caused the contract terms of characters who went to war to be counted incorrectly, and also caused those characters to be available for film production.
- Fixed a bug that caused the game to crash if the contract value for a character exceeded a million dollars.

See you tomorrow with the next one!

Hello!

- Fixed the rest of the problems with Pollux.
- Fixed another problem that could cause some locations on Pre Production to become unavailable.
- Fixed a few bugs that caused the game to show placeholders instead of illustrations.
- When you upgrade your own sound studio, concert hall or printing office, nonupgraded options disappear as there’s no point in them anymore.
- Fixed Lydia Globe being 0.0 even after all the additional time she takes.

See you Monday for the next one — and something tells us it will satisfy your need for speed.

Also here’s another thing we’re cooking up for next week.






P.S. If you have trouble launching the game after an update, please do the following:
1) Disable the synchronisation of saves with Steam Cloud in the game settings on Steam.
2) Go to C:\Users\USER\AppData\LocalLow\Weappy\Holly\Saves\Profiles\0 and delete save files you don’t need anymore, just leave the most recent ones.
3) Launch the game and wait for about a minute after the disclaimer for the game to incorporate save files properly.

We apologise for any inconvenience if this is something you've encountered, we'll resolve this in one in the next update.
