BallisticNG 1.3.3.1 is now available!
Hey everyone, here's a small update to address some issues brought up from the GOG side of things.
Your in-game profile is now decoupled from launchers and can be freely changed however you see fit using the new config -> profile button on the main menu.
If launching for the first time with a launcher running, the game will still pull your name and avatar image from there. A reset button in the new profile menu will let you automatically reset it to the launchers account name, or local defaults if you're not running a launcher.
Your avatar image is now cached to User -> Cache -> ProfileImage.png. You can update this image to be whatever you want, and it'll show up on the menu the next time you launch the game. If you run without a launcher, a default image will be cached.
Finally, the multiplayer name text input has been moved to the new profile menu and like with your local name, can also be reset!
We're going to be expanding the new menu with more functionality in the future for 1.4. We've kept the scope of it for this update fairly limited to maintain stability while we begin work on the new update.
