    Dear Wintery Community
    v1.14.8-rc.1, an unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager.

    Quite overdue, but finally here, at least in unstable form. Due to a rather annoying bug with cellars at chunk edges not being correctly detected as cellars, we've decided to push yet another (mostly) bugfix update. In the process we also made staying warm inside a room with a lit firepit a bit easier - the range is now increased.

    This update also completes one more major milestone for our server hosting services - which is the ability to configure worlds easily. That also required me to rework of the single player world configuration a bit - so the seed and world height settings are now on the customize screen as well.
    This server hosting service is is currently in closed beta. Once we are able to make a public beta, we'll likely call the service "Vintage Servers".

    As for the next major update - we got some really neat stuff done and more is in the works, but the bulk of the update yet needs to be completed. Yet again, I personally am not as productive as I would have liked to be, but that is also rather challenging with the current ongoing world wide situation. I'm happy to see the rest of the team churning out assets and code at a very healthy rate though.

    Here's one v1.15 sneak preview on something I was working on and that I've already shown on discord - rope physics!2021-01-29_13-11-29.thumb.png.3b10799fa834c39c638e107a2137d2f2.png

    It's possible that v1.15 might take a while due to us taking one or the other detour along the way. We might also cut back on the planned features and release earlier. Let's see.

    Anyhow, thanks everyone for playing and contributing with mods, translations and all the other stuff! Keep calm and carry on chiseling! ❤️
