Lawless Lands,

Hey everyone!

So, the long-awaited controller/gamepad support has now been implemented. It's not perfect, but it works and I've done some extensive testing with my new Xbox-360/Xbox-One controller. For those of you who have asked for this, your requests have been heard!

IN ORDER TO TOGGLE BETWEEN KEYBOARD OR GAMEPAD, THERE IS A FILE IN THE GAME'S INSTALL DIRECTORY CALLED "gamepad.txt"!

TYPING "1" INTO THE FILE WILL ENABLE THE GAMEPAD AND DISABLE THE ADVANCED KEYBOARD SUPPORT.

TYPING "0" INTO THE FILE WILL ENABLE THE ADVANCED KEYBOARD SUPPORT AND DISABLE THE GAMEPAD.

BASED ON ENGINE LIMITATIONS, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY I HAVE FOUND TO DO THIS.

YOU MAY NEED TO RUN THE GAME AS ADMINISTRATOR FOR THIS TO WORK.

Here is a step-by-step guide:

Update 1.9.6 Change Log:

Bug Fixes:
-None needed!

Changes & Additions:
-Renamed "Settings" to "System" in the Menu
-Added "gamepad.txt" File to the Install Directory with a Default Setting of "0" (the gamepad is disabled and the advanced keyboard is enabled / setting to "1" will reverse the effect)
-Enabled the "F1" Key for use with Remapping Gamepad Keys (Only those settings should be used - the other settings are mostly overwritten by the game such as the screen settings and sound stuff)
-Added a Default Control Scheme for Gamepads

You should NOT need to start a new game.

If you have any issues or concerns, please let me know.

The update will be available publicly soon.

Lawless Lands,

Hey everyone!

This is mainly an announcement for testers, but for those of you interested, I have completed chapter 1 of the Unrest expansion and a lot of the extras to go along with it. Be aware that I still have quite a bit to do.

*If you are a tester, please play through what I have of the expansion so far. There is still a lot of empty space on the world map, but there is a good amount of content already available.*

**Ravlova and Kratovinsk are finished settlements. The rest are placeholders. There are 11 side quests so far, some of which have several outcomes. Almost all the side quests alter the situation in the game in some way. Pay close attention. The first chapter of the main storyline is complete with some new gameplay mechanics and things to do - it has different plot lines as well in a few areas in terms of options for how you do things. There are a few random locations to find, too.**

Please let me know of any bugs, issues, or suggestions you may have. If you're a tester, you should have a direct line of communication with me, so please avoid posting on the forums or on this comment section with spoilers.

I'll have the build live shortly.

Corrosive Supporters,

Hey everyone!

I wanted to quick share this here because it's some exciting news!

I just finished my final classes and have officially graduated with my bachelor's in Computer Science of Game Programming and Development and have been awarded summa com laude! (steam censors that middle word - replace the o with a u - the award means I graduated in the top 5%) Woohoo! :-)

My immediate plan is to finally get to finishing up the expansion for Lawless Lands - Unrest - and then figure out what I'll do next. I have been working a lot with the Unreal Engine so maybe I'll be doing some work with that.

Thank you all for your support and for reading!
