Update #43 - Map


[h3]
Date: 29-12-2023
Version: 1.7.10164
[/h3]

Dear Revheads!

Here comes a long waited feature: The Map!
Many of you were asking for it since years, finally it has arrived!

A map from the time when no GPS nor Navigation devices helped you. An old-school paper based road map, which helps you to navigate, but won't do it for you by its own. You still need to figure out where you are, just like it was in those old times.
Remember, the game is set back to 1997!

Currently, the map is only available during drive and walk. (We will replace the old map in the garage later.)

We have marked all important location on the map, from shops to parking areas, race locations, petrol stations and even the garages you can buy.

We are introducing speech as the first time. During the intro scene a typical Aussie voice will guide you through. While this is helpful for the starters, we are aiming to add more speech to the game to increase the immersion in Australia.

[h3]NOTE![/h3]
If you are playing with an existing profile, you need to manually assign a control to the map! We don't want to screw with your existing controller setup. New profile will map it correctly.

  • Added Road Map to driving and walking mode
  • Added speech to the intro scene
  • Updated localization
  • Minor bugfixes


Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Merry Xmas!

Dear Revheads!

We are going ahead with full Steam!

The upcoming months will bring many new updates. As our community grows and Revhead arrives to new platforms, we find it important to reach out our users more than ever!

First, we want to make sure all Steam users, including SteamDeck and Mac Apple Silicon versions are fully supported.

Next, we are bringing community news into the game. What better place for it then the newspaper you already use every day! The newspaper now includes a community / dev page, where we can share news, contests and more! Also, in-game ads helps to find local shops and hints. More informational, helping contents coming soon!
The community page will be available only in English!

Finally, we are rolling out new contests, where winners has the chance to be included in our game as NPC or Revheads or win a free key for Revhead and its DLCs. Check out the game newspaper for more information about actual contest!

Also, to be able to push our game further in our own way, we have decided to leave PlayWay as our publisher! We both agreed that our way is not exactly the PlayWay's way and would be better for everyone to do it on our own as we did it in the past 6 years! No hard feeling left, we are all agreed what is best for our players!

  • Full support of SteamDeck (text size increased for better reading, fixed text type-in, etc)
  • Special build for native support of Mac Apple Silicon
  • Newspaper extended with cover and community page, including developer news
  • Newspaper extended with in-game ads for local shops as help for our players (more to come)
  • Tweaked humanoid animation for better quality and added sprint animation for faster movement
  • Fixed OSX M1 visual glitch reported by our Steam users
  • Some bugfixes


Enjoy!
