Hello, dear prosecutors!

We once again have a new patch for you to make some improvements, fix bugs, typos and grammar issues reported by you all. Thank you very much for all the reports when you find bugs. They really help us a lot to make The Darkest Files the best it can be as we continue supporting the game. If you encounter a bug or any inconvenience while playing the game, don’t hesitate to press F5 and write a bug report.

We are also on a continuous quest to make major performance optimizations which will make the game run on much less powerful hardware via a future patch so if you’ve been getting game crashes, rest assured that we’re on the case!

Changes

  • Improved the viewing angle when in a kitchen talk with Simon Peters
  • Fixed missing comic panel text in Naumann case
  • Fixed an issue where the bullet hole and the graffiti above the mattress in the insurgent case were not highlighted
  • Added Instagram Button to Startscreen
  • Fixed Paula and Christoph dialogues showing up in the office instead of the kitchen area
  • Disabled reconstruction blueprint in the epilogue
  • Fixed an issue where the name of the cat Marlene had a blank space after her written name in dialogues
  • Made the bigger font sizes slightly smaller
  • Polished the artwork of the Looter chapter selection screen
  • Added a phone symbol to Looter blueprint
  • Switched out english environment texture
  • Fixed a bug which could lead to the game getting stuck during court
  • Optimized graphics memory usage so the game can run on more systems. This might prevent some crashes on lower-end hardware
  • Fixed a bug where you would only receive the second half of a certain character’s diary
  • Fixed some typos in the English and French versions
  • Fixed a lot of typos and grammatical errors in the German version
