Time for a new update! This one solves several issues, including a critical issue creating infinite loadings.
We are still working on improving loading times for savegames and we are now testing the results of what we did in the last days. On all our PCs, we had a drastic reduction of loading times, in some cases going down by 60%, and we are now ensuring nothing strange is happening after the change.
We plan to test some more tomorrow, and then finally release a patch with all the improvements! The changes we did also reduce stuttering on the map or right after taking/finishing quests, which is always nice to have.
Here is the changelog for today's patch!
- Critical: Fixed an issue which could cause issues with broken quests and prevent some settlements to be loaded.
- Fixed a blocking issue caused by starting two new games in a row.
- Fixed a rare blocking issue with NPC-triggered dialogues.
- Fixed an issue seeing quests related to missing caravans or supplies spawning when the Infested are the enemy.
- Fixed a few missing or wrong strings.
- Fixed an issue with a female armor having a wrong head spawn point.
- Fixed an issue with a missing tracker on Major quests.
- Fixed some minor UI-related issues like buttons not behaving consistently in certain screens.
- Slightly improved performances on the world map and removed a possible cause of crashes when loading it.
- Updated a few UI pieces that still had the old UI color scheme and assets.
- Fixed some issues in Baitay with a roof which didn't turn off and a missing height stencyl.
- Fixed an issue with the trading panel not allowing to move item into the trading area.
- Fixed an issue creating errors when trying to switch weapon sets.
