Hello everyone,

Unfortunately we had some problems with the save-games on the patches released today / yesterday, those are fixed now (please update to last version: 0.30.4), but if you had played while using version 0.30 or 0.30.1 you save-game may had become corrupted which may cause "random" crashes and excessive memory usage.

If that is happening to you and you can:

1. Wipe out all save-games and start over: by deleteting or moving all save-game files from the directory "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Crowley\Saved\SaveGames"

2. Send your save-game files to [email protected], so we can take a look.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if we can help with anything.

Old save-game not being correctly loaded and causing crashes after while.
Music / FX sound not being loaded under some circumstances.

Greetings, Mortals!

This patch highlights a important feature: new identifying system. Also a lot of changes on game's loot:



New identify system: re-written from scratch. Now, identifying items requires placing them on a shortcut for a while, (identifiers items where dumped). The time required to identify items can be improved by a new modifier called "identify power".
Desert sub-level 2: the desert level was expanded and changed to better fit the upcoming new desert theme levels.
New Loot System: Loot was redesigned and a bunch new modifiers where added:

• Luck: increases better loot probality
  
• attributes bonus / penalties: affects main attributes (STR, DEX, INT)
  
• Identify power: Reduces the time required to identify items
  
• Movement speed: increases player's movement speed
  
• Stronger durability: causes weapons to loose less durability over-time
  
• Weapon speed: increases weapon speed (thus, increasing damage per second)
  
• Class exchange: Allows weapons to be used by other attributes other
  than the original requirement, while applying a damage penalty
  

This new system stands as a more solid basis on how loot works, and will receive further work / adjustments for now on.



Attribute summary: tool-tip added to player's UI describing how each attribute is composed (invested points + equipment modifiers)
Damage summary: tool-tip added to player's UI describing the character damage (taking attribute bonus and equipment modifiers in consideration).
Inventory slot performance improved: refactored to consume less CPU.
Item description tool-tips: where added to better explain items properties.
Consumable drop rate adjusted (still requires more work).
"R" key can be used to auto-equip / auto-identify items (from both, inventory and from the ground).
Main menu sync load: makes the initial screen more responsive while the resources still loading in background.
PT-BR translations updated.



Gamma settings and Push to talk not being saved
Willpower increase modifier not working
Revised some unbalanced modifiers on high levels
Desert second level not being loaded

Enjoy!
