Mr. Prepper News

Hello fellow Preppers!

As we informed the in the last news about game engine update - we are working very hard to fix all the crashes and high CPU/GPU ussage issues.

We have done migrating the engine to the new version and it seems to show significant improvements. But it's very risky to publish the update just like this - we will need to perform series of tests before we do so. Our internal team is working hard on it but also I would like to ask if any of you would be interested in participating in such tests?


How it goes?

1. Join Discord ( https://discord.gg/BjuFWEr )
2. Ask Valariars deputy bird#7804 or any other @moderation member for "experimental role"
3. Get access to the hidden channel where we perform the tests
4. We will give you access to the new version of the game
5. After update of the game you can continue playing your old save file - no restarts needed.

The new engine should work exactly the same as the old one, except it should run without crashes and with higher CPU/GPU performence. But backup of the save files would be a good idea, just in case.

Every day we are testing new version of the game with most updated patches. We do it to avoid releasing a patch without confirming its ok. If you would like to help us in this process and get access to the newest version before its released - please write "Valariars deputy bird#7804" on Discord, he will introduce you to the hidden channel and grant you a special "Experimental tester" role. (Discord link: https://discord.gg/BjuFWEr )


We are also aware that some of you experience crashes during the play. We are collecting output logs from your reports and investigating the issue. It seem that most of the crashes have different reasons. For now many of them can be fixed by updating the graphic card drivers to the newest version. At the same time we are aware that this is not ultimate fix - if you experience crash - please send us the logfile located here: AppData>LocalLow>Rejected Games>MrPrepper>output_log.txt so we can investigate your case directly.

[h2]Also we are going to update the game engine so most of the crashes should be gone by then. More information about this can be found here:[/h2]

Hello fellow Preppers!

We noticed that some of you experiencing crashes and high CPU/GPU usage during the play. We have been collecting logs from you and realised that it might be a problem with game engine version that had it's last update on 2017 when we started the production.

Why we did not update it before?

When you start the production you start from the newest version possible. Then you proceed forward and after some time updating the engine might cause many troubles and require fixes and changes all the time. In most cases you finish the production on the version you started it with. During the tests there was no issues that told us that this step should be done. Upgrading the engine at the end of the production might postpone the release and force us to test the game many times before the release - and there were no signs that it is required at all.

But now - when we know that some of you might have troubles with crashes and high CPU/GPU usage we decided to do it. We will update the game engine to the latest possible version. It's a lot of work and a lot of testing for us but still it's worth it - you gave us amazing feedback and we know that you really like the game. In return we are starting the migration process. Hopefully the newest version of the engine will fix all the crashes and CPU/GPU usage issues and won't bring anything unexpected.

So... nothing else to say, we are getting back to work!

Ah... If you did not leave the review yet, please do so - it is very, very important to the small devteam like ours :)
