Hey everyone!


Another bugfix update has just gone live, fixing the remaining reported crashes and some other issues as of the recent large update. This update also lets you radial loot the event gifts!

Thanks for all the reports, and as always please let me know if any issues persist!

Thanks!

Fixes:

• Fixed crash on certain optional quests that required kills of special types of monsters, such as Storms on the Horizon.
  
• Fixed crash upon entering The Badlands.
  
• Fixed not being able to import builds.
  
• Fixed not being able to pickup the special Holiday Gifts with radial loot.
  
• Fixed issue where renaming a character would cause a crash if returning to main menu and hitting "Continue as ".
  
• Fixed renamed characters not immediately showing up in the Load Hero menu.
  
• Fixed possible duplicate entries into the Graveyard of killed Hardcore characters.
  
• Fixed some skill and helpfile typos.
  
• Fixed Captain Moore (and some other enemies) getting stuck in animation.
  

Hey everyone!

The in-game Christmas event is now live!

During this event you'll be able to go into Tinka's Workshop to help him with a slight corruption problem... in here you'll face a Unique foe which can drop several Legendary Christmas-themed items - including a max sized bag!

You'll also get a lot of wrapped gifts, which when opened will reveal random items. Keep in mind that your loot filter setting will affect these gifts, so they may appear empty when opened!

Lastly you'll find that some locations, including Anomalies, will have some decoration fitting the season, and that your Crystals appear a lot more edible...

The event will last through the rest of the year.

I hope you enjoy this special event!



A bugfix update is also scheduled for later this week - so stay tuned for that!

Thank you!

Hey everyone!

The most recent update introduced a few issues which should hopefully be resolved now.
Unfortunately I had to temporarily remove some effects of a few berserker skills to stop the crashing, but they will be back as soon as I can make it work again. A new engine update sometimes introduces new issues that can be hard to pin down, so if you get any weird behavior or crashes, please let me know, and I will get right on it!

Thank you!

Fixes:

• Fixed crash on triggering the Act 5 gate cutscene.
  
• Fixed Overload not breaking objects.
  
• Fixed Arc Punch, Overload, Lightning Fist, and Shattering Punch causing a crash.
  
• Note: They no longer fire off projectiles/lightning - this will be added back.
  

Hey everyone!

Update 1.10.6 is now live with fixes for recent issues, as well as some general tweaks and performance increases.

Notably, the game is now also 64-bit!
If you are running an older 32-bit system, you can find a 32-bit version in the BETA branches on steam, but please be aware that 32-bit will not be supported indefinitely.

Linux users: 1.10.6 will be rolled out to Linux systems sometime later, as we are having some problems compiling in the latest engine version. I hope this will not delay us too much.


A time-limited Christmas event will go live on December 15th, so keep an eye out for that!
During this event you'll find extra loot - as neatly wrapped gifts! You'll also be able to visit a special location, and you'll find that the denizens of the word of Chronicon has decorated for the season. More info coming on the 15th!

Here are the full notes:

(includes changes for the 1.10.5 test build)
Note:

• The game is now 64-bit! There is a 32-bit version available in the BETA branches on Steam if your system does not support it.
  

Changes:

• Improved performance.
  
• Improved in-game text presentation.
  
• Improved color coding of endgame rewards listing.
