Re.Poly News

Hi there girls and guys.

I just want to inform you that I made polls on the discord server that I use to decide which features
will be implemented into the game. This will give you the opportunity to have a great influence on what will happen.

Your voice is most important so I invite you to meet me there.

Have a nice weekend and thank you all for your great support :)

Hey there girls and guys.

In this update I replaced the old map with a complete new one. This one only has 3 biomes with future biomes to come.

This time caves are present and some places to explore and loot. Some of the places are only placeholders and will be changed in future updates but I had to block them to prevent you from building at this places and destroy your savegames.

A propos savegames: Yes I had to wipe your savegames because it is a complete new map and it had caused a lot of extreme errors and issues. So Yes, you have to start a new game. Sorry about that but it is neccessary.

To see what is planned this year just take a look on the roadmap here: Re.Poly Roadmap

I hope you like the update and I hope the performance boost that is present you will no longer have overheated graphics cards. :)

Hey there girly and guys.

I am struggling hard with a bug on dedicated servers and I tried a lot of stuff but nothing helped, except of one solution. The bottleneck here is the amount of slots a player has. The information that is send from the server to the client is too big to handle.

So I had to reduce the amount of slots the player has.

But no worries I am working on a solution to give you back the space you had. I can seperate information so I will add a backpack that has 12 slots.

Yes 12 slots. That means instead of 36 slots your character will have only 24 slots.

Items that were in that slots could be deleted when you load a savegame. If not, make sure you store the last 2 rows of your inventory somewhere else and kill your char to prevent future bugs.

Again, I am sorry for this reduction but it was the only way.

Have a nice weekend
