[h3]News[/h3]

• We added a new unlockable action - sniffing! To unlock it, you need to collect 100 000 essence. Stop and smells the flowers!
  
• We’ve made adjustments to the locomotion system to make it work like it did before.
  
• We updated the minimap feature. Now you can switch the player display mode on the minimap in game settings.
  

If you have blocked some players, you won’t be able to see their markers on the minimap or regular map.

• We’ve added a possibility to track particular players. If you want to find your friends, you can do that by clicking the button next to the mute/unmute button on the player list. Then, their markers become golden and are always shown both on the minimap and the map.
  

An indicator to show the camera direction has been added both in the minimap and the map.
The quick selection wheel can now be closed by pressing Right Mouse Button.
Now you can press Tab key to show and hide all emotes. It can be customised in game settings.

• You can now hold RB (right shoulder button) to show/hide in-game UI with the gamepad.
  

We added camera new controls for gamepad:

• Hold LT (left trigger) and push right joystick to zoom in/out;
  
• Hold RT (right trigger) and push right joystick to change camera height.
  

We’re introducing a new approach to the Classic branch:

• We needed to make some back-end changes to how the emotes/special emotes/actions are structured to ease working with them and adding more in the future. This has caused a de-sync between the Classic version of Meadow and the current Live/Beta. To ensure the best player experience we can, we decided to guide classic players to their own “Classic grove”. This grove can only be accessed while playing on the Classic version. To access Meadow Classic you need to right click on Meadow in your Steam library, select “Properties…”, go to “Betas” and select “classic - Classic branch” from the “Beta Participation” dropdown menu. To go back to the current version please select “None” in the “Beta Participation” drop down menu.

[h3]Motion sickness issue[/h3]
To solve the problem of motion sickness caused by picture movement that doesn't match the body's expectations, we've reduced the default speed of camera rotation.

If you feel uncomfortable while playing, please turn down the camera control speed appropriately and set the camera mode to static, in Settings > Game page.



Additionally, the frame rate and whether V Sync is enabled or not can affect motion sickness to some extent. Please adjust them to a more comfortable value in Settings > Graphics page.



If changing settings doesn't help with motion sickness issues, do not hesitate to share your experience, game settings, screenshots, or gameplay recordings and details about the device you’re playing on with us on Discord.

We will continue to try to improve it, in order to bring you a better gaming experience.

• Close button which can be clicked by mouse is now added for animal editor view and player list.
  
• Emotes selected on the quick selection wheel can are now sent upon releasing the quick selection wheel button.
  

[h3]Known Issues[/h3]

• Some of the texts in game are still being translated, and they will be displayed in English temporarily.

[h3]Hello,[/h3]

Anyone feeling fabulous? On March 25 we celebrate National Peacock Day. So from 00:01 until 23:59, central European time, we will unlock the playable Pheasant with its Peacock skin for everyone to enjoy.

Here's a little tidbit that our copywriter found to be an earth shattering revelation when doing peacock research for the product description of the peacock skin:

"Did you know that all peacocks are male? It makes sense when you think about it, but we’re so used to talking about peacocks as if they’re a species of bird rather than the males of one. The collective name is peafowl, the females are called peahens and the babies are peachicks. In Meadow, however, you can be a female peacock if you so wish. Who’s going to stop you?"
