[b] CHANGELOG:[b]
v.0.12.4 - 2020-08-28




Fixes


[Dungeon] Moved checkpoint close to Merishya backwards so the player won't load on top the trigger box that starts her dialogue.

[Dungeon] Made that the dialogue only triggers if the player doesn’t have her quest yet. Which will prevent the dialogue to start every time the player tries to load the game.

[Thulgatha] When Kalyskah avoids the courtesan questline she will tell Bouchard that he was “predictable”. He was reacting to that line but she wasn’t saying it before.

[Thulgatha] Fixed armour and damage amount display on the character inventory interface. This made Kalyskah’s damage output smaller, but that’s how it was supposed to be in the first place.

[Thulgatha] Fixed Kalyskah health resetting to 70% every time she was leaving a dialogue.

[Thulgatha] Fixed all the dialogues that were not being controlled by the “Voice” volume on the main menu. Let me know if we left anything behind.

[Thulgatha] Fixed "flickering neckline" problem on the character's texture.

Enemies will no longer target Kalyskah if she's defeated. This will make the combat music stop playing after you die.

Fixed f/f kissing interaction while holding hands

Fixed Hammer idle animations not working properly

Enhancements


Improved Attribute descriptions so now you know what sorcery, charisma, etc will do.

Improved broom location on the sweeping ground working stations

[Thulgatha] New looping animations for the prostitutes

[Thulgatha] Added Kalyskah voice on the dialogue with Silas, and also started to adjust the camera. Kalyskah won’t have lipsync yet because I need to make some fine tunes before doing it.

Improvements on how Kalyskah recognizes that she is under a shadow to avoid taking sunlight damage. The leaves at the new area don’t have collision yet though, which means that to avoid sunlight damage there you should stay at the shadow cast by the trunks. But we’ll improve it in time.

[Thulgatha] Starting to improve the scene where Kalyskah meets James outside of the dungeon. It’s not done yet, but it will be at the end of the month.

Removed the sound when Kalyskah hits something she can’t harm. So there won’t be metal sounds when you hit a friendly NPC anymore.

Ai Improvement: Friendly NPCs will no longer attack someone that Kalyskah is drinking blood.

Ai Improvement: Enemies will stop trying to reach the player if the player is too far and there is some ally hitting them. Merishya can’t take damage yet so this wasn’t a problem until we introduced the summoning.

[Dungeon] Gremnoch fight improvements – Part 1: When he reaches 50% of his health he will start to spawn bloodhounds. We removed that close-range attack that he was launching Kalyskah on the ground. This rendered him easier to be defeated, but on the next patch, we will make somethings to make him a little harder to kill. Suggestions are welcome!

Improvements on Gremnoch appearance: His eyes will glow in green when he has only half lifebar left, his eyes will glow in red and he will have some smoke effects around him.

Improvement Gremnoch and Death Hounds collisions. Kaly won’t get inside of them anymore.

Changing Kalyskah’s appearance on the main menu will now work when loading different save slots, not only the most recent one.

Blood Bottles now have an icon and they won’t restore only Kalyskah’s health, but also her actual blood pool. 200 health and 50 blood points over 10 seconds (her maximum blood pool is 200). You can’t use the blood bottles if you are already under the effect of one. This should prevent wasting them.

Fixed item amount not being loaded properly. I noticed this error while working on the blood bottles. If you had 10 of them on your inventory, when you loaded the game you would have only 1.

[Dungeon] Kalyskah won’t slide towards Merishya at the dungeon conversation anymore. She will actually walk.

Save games will now be displayed from the most recent to the oldest one, this will make your life a lot easier to find the most recent game you were playing when you quit the game.

More progress on building Natasha's hut

Replaced the old wolf with a new one with better animations. So fighting wolves is now way much better than what it was before.

Increased wolf collision box, so fighting them will be easier

Generated LOD for some NPCs, not sure this will have a visible impact on performance yet.

Added visual effects when the character parries or block an attack

Features


[Thulgatha] Kalyskah can now swim on the rivers and reach the other side of the forest. This area is under construction so although it has a nice environment and effects, it might still feel a little empty because we don’t have a questline there yet, but we are already working on it for the incoming releases.
