Release notes for the upcoming base game patch this Friday

On April 11th, Dawnsbury Days will be updated to version V3. This version adds the bard and the oracle, hundreds of new feats, spells and items, a couple of new encounters, many new features, and enables the expansion adventure, "The Profane Barrier", which will be released the same day.

All of your characters and save files will carry over. All mods will continue to work, though some of them might not contain higher-level content.

The upcoming patch will update the game from version 2.65 to version 3.36.

Here's the release notes.

[h2]Highlights[/h2]

• Level 8. You can now advance up to level 8.
  
• New character content. You can now choose from 5 new ancestries (halfling, gnome, goblin, leshy, oozekin), 2 new versatile heritages (aasimar, tiefling), 2 new classes (Bard, Oracle), 200+ new feats, 140+ new spells, 80+ new items and more.
  
• Rune subsystem. You can now craft magic weapons and armor with potency, striking, resilient and property runes.
  
• Save profiles. Instead of a single autosave slot, you now have 3 player profiles for each adventure path. You can still also make any number of manual saves as before.
  
• Rules fidelity. Redesigned subsystems for initiative, stealth and cover for greater intuitiveness and tabletop fidelity.
  
• Name customization. You can now name your party, your heroes and your animal companions. If you rename your heroes, you will see a warning that voice acting will continue to refer to your characters as Anna, Scarlet, Tok'dar and Saffi.
  
• GM mode. In GM mode, you control both the party and all monsters. You can use GM mode if you want monsters to use different tactics, or if you're playing with other players using Steam Remote Play Together and want one of the players to take the role of the gamemaster.
  
• Performance. Dawnsbury Days now takes up less RAM, less disk space and is more stable on computers with weaker hardware.
  
• 100+ minor improvements. This patch also brings 100+ minor improvements to rules fidelity, user interface, usability and stability, including bugfixes.
  

[h2]Features[/h2]

Story mode features:

• Profiles. Instead of a single autosave, Dawnsbury Days now has three profile slots for each campaign (Dawnsbury Days, Profane Barrier, modded campaigns...). After you select a campaign in Story mode, you will first select one of the three profile slots to start or continue. You can still choose Quick start or Custom start for each campaign, but you can now also choose "Continue from Dawnsbury Days" to take your party from the base game. You can still make manual saves.
  
• Custom party names. You can now name and rename your parties in Custom start and in the Party/Retraining screen. Your party's name will be part of the save file name and show up in the profile slot.
  
• Custom hero names. In Story mode, you can rename Anna, Scarlet, Tok'dar and Saffi to names of your choice. This will only change the text and not voice acting.
  
• Custom animal companion names. You can now name your animal companion.
  
• Dialogue log. All dialogue lines are now outputted to the combat log so you can reread them later if you miss them.
  

In-combat features:

• New combat action: Hand over item. You can now hand items in your hand over to adjacent allies.
  
• GM mode. In GM mode, you control both the party and all monsters. You can use GM mode if you want monsters to use different tactics, or if you're playing with other players using Steam Remote Play Together and want one of the players to take the role of the gamemaster.
  
• Arachnophobia mode. You can toggle arachnophobia mode in "Video" settings or at the beginning of an encounter that includes a spider in Story mode or Free encounter mode. In this mode, images of spiders will be replaced with bare text tokens with no art.
  

Rules fidelity features:

• Initiative and delay redesign. Initiative and delaying have been redesigned for greater tabletop fidelity. Loopholes allowing you to trigger beneficial effects multiple times have been closed. You can no longer delay any detrimental effects, or prolong the duration of beneficial effects by delaying. Delaying works correctly across rounds.
  
• Stealth system redesign. Stealth has been redesigned for greater tabletop fidelity. You can now Sneak through an area where you don't have cover or concealment, as long as you end your Sneak in a square where you have cover or concealment. Sneak and Hide now give you circumstance bonuses against observing enemies if you have cover (+2) or greater cover (+4). Step no longer makes you automatically undetected. Create a Diversion now lasts until end of turn only, but allows your Hidden status to persist even in plain sight with a Stealth check that isn't a critical failure. Fixed various bugs related to the stealth subsystem. Reduced visual clutter and improved and simplified the display of stealth in the combat log. Updated the rulebook.
  
• Cover system redesign. Cover has been redesigned for greater intuitiveness, stability and performance. Cover rules are now more strict: A corner-to-corner line that "scratches" a corner of a wall midway now counts as blocked for the purposes of determining cover and line-of-effect. As a special exception to the standard line-drawing rules, you now also no longer have line-of-effect at all if you're looking at a creature directly behind a pillar of a wall. Prone creatures no longer provide cover to allies behind them. Cover is now more accurate. Updated the rulebook.
  
• Reactive attack redesign. If the game is not sure that your primary weapon is the best choice for an attack of opportunity or similar reactive attack, it prompts you to choose a weapon. You can also enable "Ask for specific weapon for reactive attacks" to always have the option of choosing your weapon for a reactive attack.
  

Character editor features:

• Inventory toasts. When you attempt to perform an illegal action in the inventory (such as buying an item you don't have enough gold for; attaching a rune to an item that can't be enchanted with etc., you will get an error message explaining why the action is illegal.
  
• Import into character library. There is a new tab in Character library named "Import from story mode". In there, you can select a save file (manual or profile slot) and click "Import all" to get all four characters from the party from that save file into your character library.
  

System features:

• Long-term effects. Some effects can now persist on players through multiple encounters, such as the mummy rot disease. This functionality is also exposed to mods which can create custom long-term effects.
  
• Cheat menu. You can now enable cheat menu in Settings->System to kill any creature instantly or use other debugging/GM powers
  
• Better credits. Improved the appearance of end credits and main menu credits.

Character library:

• Pregenerated characters have been rebuilt. Thanks to SwingRipper, all pregenerated characters have been rebuilt. They now go up to level 8. These new builds are more equal in power level to the standard Fighter, Rogue, Sorcerer, Cleric party, and you should be able to win the campaign with any combination of them in Medium (and Hard if you're good); they expose the most fun things about each class still and should still be easy to use.
  

[h2]Performance[/h2]

• Loading times. Coverlines now preload when you view an encounter in free encounter mode and before you start an encounter in campaign mode, reducing a 10-200ms delay in starting an encounter. Also improved loading times a little overall, especially of the tutorial.
  
• CPU usage. Upgraded libraries from .NET 8 to .NET 9 for an overall performance improvement, and made other performance optimizations.
  
• Memory usage. Reduced the memory usage of Dawnsbury Days by unloading art from other levels. On my computer, this reduces memory usage from 2.7 GB down to 0.9 GB with DLC enabled. The feature is enabled by default but can be disabled in System menu.
  
• Disk usage. Greatly decreased file size of both the base game and the expansion, mostly by using more suitable audio formats.
  

[h2]Art[/h2]

• Group portraits. Added art to the lines where the Dawnsbury Four speak as a group. It's generated dynamically based on the portraits you selected.
  
• Projectile art. Arrows and bolts now like like arrows and are pointed in the direction of the target.
  
• More portraits. Added additional portrait options for player characters.
  
• New art. There is new art for the following: Chaos, Evil, Take cover, Feint, Kick, Hide, Protector Tree, Regeneration deactivated, Faerie dragon, all combat maneuvers, Giant Rat, Animated Statue, Zombie Shambler, Skeletal Champion, Demon Flamesniper, Demon Flamesniper Unleashed, rapier and more.
  

[h2]User interface improvements[/h2]
User interface (general)

• Many traits now have tooltips, and some have colors.
  
• Overall improved text and fixed typos in many spells and descriptions.

• Items are now grouped into further groups (such as spell scrolls of each level).
