Tyron Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 Patient community, Version 1.10.0-rc.1, an unstable release, is now ready for download in the account manager. Took a while, but here it is! \o/ This update is centered around food spoilage and food preservation. This together with the upcoming addition of seasons should make for some some really interesting game play. Some Screenshots and Videos Spoilage: Food now stays fresh for a set amount of days, then begins to spoil, ultimately turning into rot => Preserve Food: You can now build cellars to make food last longer. Can place food into crocks and storage vessels for an additional preservation bonus. Crocks can be stored on shelves. Can now make barrels to pickle vegetables, cure meat, create compost, create limewater and mortar and to store honey or water Static translocators are now repairable, which will yield in a random, yet permanent, 2-way connection with another place in the world.Greatly improved visuals: VS is prettier than ever with new water shader effects, water stream particles, much improved dynamic shadows, much improved color grading and contrast, improved sun/moon rendering and shading, loaded world edge smoothing, tree leaves swaying and more Can now create colored lights in survival mode Many new flower pot variants, several storage vessel variants, all sold by a new artisan trader type All Game updates Feature: Food spoilage All food items now have a certain duration where they are fresh after which they will slowly, and visibly begin to rot. Once completely rotten the item will turn into inedible rot The speed at which food spoils depends on the food type and how they are stored. All containers now show their spoilage rate in the block info Pro-Tips: Cooking or Preserving food makes it slightly fresher Keeping a pot of cooked food above 75° keeps it from spoiling A hot climate is a food killer. Spoilage rates there are up to 2.5 times faster. On the bright side, placing food in a cellar will completely mitigate that problem. Extremely cold climates makes food spoil up to 10 times slower. Feature: Food preservation Added Cellars: Dark spaces are recognized by the game and food spoils slower there. Spaces enclosed in soil or rock are also recognized and will additionally slow down the spoilage rates Added Storage vessels: Made from clay, these vessels can store food items. Stored grains and vegetables get an extra preservation bonus. Added Crocks: For long term storage of cooked food and pickled vegetables. Added crock shelves to store up to 8 crocks. Crock mechanics are still a bit wonky/unfinished in pre.1 Feature: Improved cooked meals Added Jam: Can now create jam from 2 honey + 2 berries Cooked meals now give a lofty satiety bonus of +50% Partial servings: The player no longer wastes meals when overeating. You will only eat as much as you have satiety left to fill Fixed honey and soybean not adding anything to meals Meals can now also spoil. To remove a rotten meal, throw the pot into water and let it soak for a while Feature: New crafting mechanic: The Barrel Lets you pickle vegetables which last longer than fresh ones Let's you cure meat which last longer than raw meat Lets you mix quicklime with water to create slaked lime. Mix again with sand to create mortar. Mortar is now required to craft stone brick blocks or clay brick blocks. Quicklime is created by baking lime, whereas lime can be created by crushing chalk or limestone stones. Lets you create compost from 60 pieces of rot. Compost is a high fertility soil useful for farming Barrel recipes are now listed in the handbook Feature: Healing/Satiety/Nutrient rebalance Most foods no longer heal the player Added very slow self healing. Self healing is reduced when the player is below 75% satiety. Self healing costs additonal satiety You now need to rely on poultices to heal yourself. (One more healing item will be addded still) Upped max satiety from 1200 to 1500. Satiety drains 10% faster. Attacking creatures costs a bit of extra satiety Nutrients now drain twice as slow Feature: Berry bush rebalance Can no longer be harvested instantly. Now takes about a 0.6 seconds for each bush Take 3-4 more days to flower and ripen Ripe berry bushes will revert to their empty state after about 20 days Feature: Static translocator are now repairable These devices that you have already found underground in v1.9, can now be repaired with gears and metal parts. Once repaired, they will connect to another translocator somewhere on the map and allow transport between both locations Feature: First steps towards automation mechanics: Hoppers and Chutes Can now craft hoppers and chutes that will move items from one container to another. Championed by Tatsu and Redram \o/ Feature: Greatly improved visuals Feature: The sides of blocks are now illuminated depending on the sun and moon position Feature: Improved dusk/dawn ambient. The sun now also becomes orange/red during dusk/dawn and the ambient colors during those time are more aesthetically pleasing Feature: The edge of the loaded world now fades into the sky, i.e. hard chunk edges are less visible now Feature: Leaves now sway in the wind Feature: The held items in first person mode now sway a bit Feature: The moon is no longer just a white rectangle. It has an actual texture to it now. Feature: Greatly improved water visuals Added fresnel effect (looking straight down makes water transparent, looking at it at a steep makes it opaque) Added foamy water edge shading effect Added a "glittery" effect that moves across the waters surface Added stream particles for moving water Particles are now affected my moving water Improved water splash particles Feature: Added Glowy lava edge shading effect Tweak: Much improved gamma correction. Turns gamma correction was wrongly implemented making the game dark and washed out. Vintage Story overall ambient now looks much better and less is less eye-straining Tweak: Improved falling block entity visuals. They are no longer jittery while falling and less likely flicker upon dropping/landing Tweak: Added rotation smoothing when turning around in overhead camera mode. Used to be jittery when turning around. Tweak: Particles of boyant blocks are now also boyant Tweak: Reduce block z-fighting issues (glass + ice was z-fighting) Tweak: The forge looks more like a forge by reducing its inset depth Tweak: Polished the godrays effect a bit. Dusks no longer have intensified god rays (Dawns still do) Fixed: Several visual glitches with dynamic shadows are now gone or significantly reduced Fixed: Mitigated lacking water fog and ambient visuals while under water in the night Feature: Ingame documentation improvements Added handbook page on prospecting Added held item/block interaction help \o/ Feature: Colored lights in survival mode - can now apply colored glass to lanterns to make them emit colored light Feature: Can now name chiseled blocks Feature: New Blocks Added large vessel, a 12 slot container Added new small flower pot textures.

Allows to (temporarily) increase the fertility of soil to 100%. Fixed some oddities about farmland Natural nutrient recovery is now 3 times slower All killed animals now also yield bones. Breaking ribcages in the desert drops bones Sylvite can now be ground into potash and bones can be ground into bonemeal Feature: Can now flip hand slot contents with hotkey 'X' Feature: Stacked bamboo can now be placed sideways like logs Feature: Added -pw argument to VintageStory.exe commandline to connect to a server with a password Feature: Looking at killed creatures/players now show which player killed it Feature: Worldmap waypoints now show the waypoint number for easy reference when wanting to delete them again Feature: Added confirm dialog for external links Feature: Added server description text section for public servers Feature: Added "Open For All" toggle for the public server lists Feature: Harvestable killed creatures now show if their drop rate is reduced because they fell from a large height or were killed by another animal Tweak: World generation changes Ore/Mineral Deposit tweaks Made iron ore deposits 20 times rarer but 10 times bigger. Decreased the occurrence of a cinnabar ore Increased occurence of salt by adding rare but massive salt dome deposits Reduced surface copper deposit sizes (but should still spawn about the same amount of loose copper bits) Reduced occurence of fire clay deposits, therefore made them thicker Fixed a long lasting bug with child deposits (gold, quartz, sylvite and silver in galena) not properly generating Fixed: Fixed worldgen having a strong bias to only generate a small subset of all possible trader outpost variants Fixed: World gen towards north being forever ice mountains Tweak: Gameplay balancing changes Can now craft hoes from stone and fllint High fertility soil is now called "Terra Preta" and has +5% more fertility. Locust now run about 10% faster and do 1.5 damage instead of 1 Buffed cob recipe, now yields 10 instead of 8 cob Doubled temporal gear drop rate Doubled feather drop rate from hens and roosters Doubled max stacksize for feathers and flax twine Female bunnies also eat crops now like their male counterpart Hares can no longer spawn on farmland Debuffed fat, now gives half as much satiety Standing still reduced satiety drain by a factor of 3. Now will only do this while standing still AND not interacting with the world. The forge now only accepts up to 5 coal instead of 10 Wooden clubs and handbaskets are now combustible Halite can now be ground into salt Bows are now a bit more accurate when standing still and when getting the timing right Increase satiety drain by 10% Halved damage taken from starving Tweak: Loot vessels are now called "Cracked vessel" and the texture now has visible cracks.

Most notably in multiplayer Fixed: Can no longer ignite claimed blocks Fixed: Able to fill beenades on claimed skeps API Updates: Engine concept change: The name, description and icon of ItemStacks are now container-aware. That means it is now possible for an item stacks icon, name or description to change depending on what inventory it is in. This required several refactors. Amongst others: IRenderAPI.GetItemStackRenderInfo(ItemStack itemstack,....) is now obsolete, use the new IRenderAPI.GetItemStackRenderInfo(ItemSlot itemstack,....) Refactor: Collectible.GetHandbookInfo changed first argument from ItemStack to ItemSlot Refactor: Itemstack.GetDescription added 'ItemSlot inSlot' argument Feature: Increased block id range by a factor of 30.

Can now also set a players role. Refactor: All geometry no longer has baked block side shading, instead TesselateShape() now generates vertex normals (packed into the renderFlags array) upon which they are shaded. This might break some block side shading for some renderers, in most cases you only need to do meshdata.rgba2=null; before uploading the mesh Refactor: Changed first argument in Collectible.GetHeldItemInfo() from ItemStack to ItemSlot Refactor: Renamed IRenderAPI.DeleteTexture() to IRenderAPI.RemoveTexture() Refactor: in IRenderAPI `int GetOrLoadTexture(AssetLocation name, BitmapRef bmp);` is now `void GetOrLoadTexture(AssetLocation name, BitmapRef bmp, ref LoadedTexture intoTexture);` Refactor: For all API methods that required or returned a blockid the data type is now int instead of ushort Refactor: IWorldAccessor.Blocks/Items/Recipes are now Lists instead of arrays Refactor: api.Event.ChunkColumnGeneration event handler now has to accept an additional argument: , ITreeAttribute chunkGenParams = null Refactor: Changed Block.GetPlacedBlockName(IClientWorldAccessor world, BlockPos pos) to Block.GetPlacedBlockName(IWorldAccessor world, BlockPos pos) Refactor: Renamed api.WorldManager.ResendChunk() to api.WorldManager.BroadcastChunk().

Jon Williams Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 This is great stuff... nice work! Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I'm getting pretty bad stuttering with v1.10.rc1 and it seems to be related to the onscreen text that shows when pointing to an object in the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyron Posted August 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Oi, do you mean the block info hud (at the top center of the screen) or the block interaction help (stickied to above the block)? Please do help me debug the stuttering, here's some info on how to do that: https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php?title=Debugging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
