Early Access Update v0.73d - Feb 2019 Mini Update
Changes List:
The town I live in (Townsville, Qld) flooded really badly this month and was declared a disaster zone. It was a worrying time, and for obvious reasons I haven't really been able to get a lot of work done the last 2 weeks. We personally managed to avoid the worst of it, we didn't get any water inside our home, for which we are incredibly thankful. We had some family stay with us that were facing a more dangerous situation with a home that is very close to the dam, and helped each other get through it. Scores of people lost their homes and all of their possessions, and I can't begin to imagine how that feels.
I ziplocked all of my work drives and made sure to make plenty of backups of everything needed to be able to get back to work once everything had passed.
The next update will be a normal sized update (with a new cup being added), so it will take a longer time to get ready than a mini-update. With the downtime from the flood, and the extra time needed to get it all created, I think it will likely come sometime in April.
Until the next update, stay safe and happy karting!
- added rez 2560x1080 (for 21:9 monitors)
- added ability for camera to look up a little when going in and out of upside down transitions on the ToeJam&Earl track (for external camera only, internal camera in a later update)
- reversed the polarity of the gold shroom card reveal effect added in the previous update
- added some optimisation to the Ultra Podium scene which might prevent a crash some players were experiencing
