Tyron Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Dear Extraordinary Survivalists v1.19.0-pre.1, a preview release, can now be downloaded through the account manager (section "Other Goodies"). We are proud to present, our next major update to Vintage Story! The working title for this update was "Dejank Redux" - polishing of existing game mechanics. In fact, it started out with a gigantic list of items from each team member on what they individually felt could need addressing, we then narrowed it down to just a small handful. Those plans included a revisit to the death and reviving mechanics, but that became displaced in favour of a cleanup/upgrades on the game engine itself, as well as many other tweaks that also felt befitting to the title of "Dejank". As usual, some new features always manage to sneakily sneak into our updates As with our previous updates, we continue our tradition of challenging the status quo of what this game engine can do - this time primarily by introducing a new concept we call Mini Dimensions. It is our hope that once this tech has matured, it will enable all kinds of movable multiblock shenanigans. We are excited to explore this new frontier with you, dear Community! Juicy Engine Tech a-plenty This update contains a lot of new and improved engine tech that will enable new types of game play while also ensuring that the engine still has plenty of room for the game to grow. Mini Dimension System: There is now rudimentary support for world chunks to be rendered into the game world independent of their position in the standard map system. In the long term, this should allow for multiblock vehicles and other wicked mechanical shenanigans. As a first proof of concept, when importing schematics (or copying from the clipboard) through World Edit, you can now see a live preview of all blocks, positioned using this system. For technical info, see our documentation file: movchunks public notes.txt Unlimited textures: The textures for blocks, items and entities are no longer limited to a single texture atlas. Therefore, mods which add a lot of new textures should never run out of texture atlas space again! This multi-atlas system was partially included since the game's early days and is now finally complete. New First-person mode: Took a lot of tuning, but visible hands are finally a thing now Wearable animation support: Items that the player wears can now be animated. This is important for some clothing types such as skirts. Animation system v2: A new data format, more compatible to other animation formats, such as the one made with Blender (use with Blender still relies on a community made converter, however) Connected textures: Rudimentary support for this now exists, to allow e.g. a 64x64 texture be mapped onto 2x2x2 blocks Chat commands code rewrite: In v1.18 we introduced a new API for commands - one that would allow for automatic documentation and future capability for a command auto-complete feature. In v1.19 the monumental effort of migrating hundreds of existing commands to this new API is now complete! World Edit commands consistency overhaul: The World Edit system grew organically over time, and it was a prime candidate for a revisit. We introduced a new, consistent command naming scheme and also filled in some gaps in its feature set. More de-jank to come still. Chiseling system upgrades: We continue our efforts towards ever tighter integration of chiseled blocks as a "first class citizen". Chiseled blocks now support decor layers, naturally integrate into the terrain when they are part of a ruin, and can become submerged in soil. Please note 1. This first preview release is an unfinished update, mostly intended for modders and very adventurous players. You will encounter major bugs, incomplete features, possible performance issues and crashes. 2. Further preview releases (including fixes for bugs in pre.1) will only be posted in Discord #news and on info.vintagestory.at and not on this blog. As usual, a new v1.19 blog post will then come when the first full release candidate (rc.1) is ready 3. If testing 1.19 on an old world from 1.18 or earlier, we strongly recommend making a backup copy before loading the world in 1.19. Still planned for rc.1 Many of the new mechanics and game content in this preview are in a rough state, especially the new deer, ruins and new First-person mode. They will require a lot of tuning and tweaking before we can go stable. Also wild animal catching is still unfinished. Screenshots / Gifs Overhauled First-person mode: Now with hands! WIP Cave-in system: Build support beams to prevent getting buried alive (only on by default in the Wilderness Survival mode) Added 11 species of deer and more! WIP (Antlers still missing) Animal catching: Domesticated animals can be picked up with a basket Fully reworked ruins. Very much still a work in progress (WIP), they don't all fully spawn yet. New Accessibility settings Added Command Handbook (in Creative mode) Added Scroll racks, also lets you store Tuning cylinders World map tweaks: No longer super revealing by default, but instead it displays your prospecting results. (WIP) Character selector tweaks: More canon hair colors, better randomizer and the ability to use your last selection from another world / server More chisel power: Now supports decors and topsoil Overhauled/New 3D models for troughs, buckets and seeds Added live preview during schematic import Game updates Feature: Overhauled First-person mode (WIP): Now a hybrid between the old standard fp mode and the Immersive fp mode. We only render the player's hands and arms, their position depends on current actions and items held Feature: Added moose, elk, and 11 species of deer, each has several antler variants. (based on the assets from the Capreolinae mod, with permission. Thanks Tentharchitect!) Feature: Cave-in system in the Wilderness Survival playstyle. Solid rock and cracked rock now collapses if not supported while it is being broken/placed. Enabled via world config. Use wooden beams to stabilize mines and tunnels! Feature: Added Accessibility tab. Moved View Bobbing and Toggle Sprint settings there. Added 2 new accessibility settings: Camera shake strength and Wireframe thickness. Tweak: Added ability to adjust temporal instability waviness in the new Accessibility tab Tweak: Added experimental minbrightness client config, potential use for YouTubers/streamers to prevent pitch-black areas. Feature: Added Command Handbook. Available in Creative mode through the game pause menu, or type command .chb to open Feature: Visual fine tuning Improved frost overlay visuals on creatures/traders - frost now only applies during precipitation or shortly thereafter, improved visual quality and some body parts are no longer completely frosted over, such as the trader's head Re-worked large trough, small trough and bucket models Crop seeds and grain items now have 3D models Improved SSAO quality - no longer has odd artifacts (thanks to @nug on Discord) Added more depth to Dry stone wall textures. Visual tweaks Redwood beams: wood grain was in the wrong direction Fixed Aged fancy bed having bright green bed cover. The bed cover is now faded, aged green Replaced Resonance Archives clutter bed with updated model. Added colorful linen textures for mattress sides and pillow. Added shading texture overlay for mattress sides and pillow. Fixed bed-fency-open clutter block missing textures Faster storm dust particles Improved seraph idle animation Feature: Added scroll racks. Storage space for scrolls, papers and tuning cylinders Feature: Added cracked ashlar blocks, deadfungi and spotty mold decor layer blocks and some book clutter blocks Feature: Prospecting pick heatmap: added tabs to the world map Feature: New more medieval looking world map visuals, using the color palette from the Medieval Map mod (by permission from Rangelost, with many thanks). Classic world map visuals can be restored using the commands "/worldconfigcreate bool colorAccurateWorldmap true" server-wide or "/player [playername] grant colorAccurateWorldmap" for each player Feature: Chiseling system upgrades Decor overlay support as well as support for grass covered topsoil block. Can use knife to remove decor layers again. Can now properly add more material to a chiseled block, useful when wanting to create a full block from 2 slabs When using slabs as input material the game did not correctly count already used material Chiseled blocks no longer have their name fixed to the block name first used during creation. If no custom name is set by the player, the chiseled block will now take on the name of the majority material World generation now fully supports chiseled blocks when part of a surface or underground ruin, i.e. chiseled block materials can adapt to local rock types and can get submerged into soil Feature: Ability to catch small tamed animals (generation 5+) with an empty reed chest. Requires one free backpack slot Feature: Raccoon and Fox pups now spawn in the world Feature: Improved character selector Players can now select their previously selected skin preferences, in the Create Character dialog via new 'Last selection' button Greatly reduced strange hair combinations when using the Randomize button Updated hair colors. Replaced all purple and pink shades. The selector no longer plays the seraph voice when the Create Character dialog first appears (too laggy in the first few frames to do so, can heavily skew sounds) Feature: Gameplay balancing tweaks and fixes Tweak: Double-headed drifters and Bells now have a chance to drop Jonas parts/sub-assemblies. Tweak: Double-headed drifters have a little more health now. Tweak: Made arid areas more arid (by further filling up lakes with blocks) Tweak: Being wet debuffs your warmth 50% more strongly, but players now get wet from snowfall 4 times more slowly than from rain Tweak: Nerfed fur clothing set warmth values, it was circumventing the need for clothing repair Tweak: Polar bears now cannot climb, but can swim faster than other bears Tweak: Wooden paths can now be made with any type of board Tweak: Plank path recipe now outputs 1 path per 2 boards (25% of previous output) Tweak: Archimedes Screw now only accepts plates of tool metals in its recipe Tweak: No fall damage when doing a gliding land while aiming less than 45° downwards, i.e. looking horizontal or upwards will negate all fall damage Tweak: Adjusted prices for a couple of trader goods. Linen now much more expensive, also raised Gambeson armor cost to match. Most tools slightly more expensive Antique armor cost now matches the value of the armor slot. Head armor cheapest, leg armor medium cost, chest armor most expensive Fixed: Players not receiving fall damage when touching a wall during the fall Fixed: Ingot piles were combustible Fixed: Tree seeds were not combustible Fixed: Fuel duration of Night vision goggles was not properly calculated (was only client side) Fixed: Damaged flax crop still giving a full yield of flax fibres Fixed: An upside half slab over a 1-deep hole is now no longer recognized as a cellar Fixed: Sleeping did not accelerate healing. Health and Hunger are now calculated based on in-game time instead of real world time. (Can adjust the heal regeneration speed and the hunger speed using commands /worldconfig playerHealthRegenSpeed 1 and /worldconfig playerHungerSpeed 1) Feature: Added a worldconfig option to change the health regeneration speed: "/worldconfig playerHealthRegenSpeed 1". Also available on world creation Feature: Can now ignite extinct torches on lit torches, firepits, forges, pit kilns, etc. Feature: World Edit upgrades Schematic import (and copying from clipboard) now previews a live version instead of half-transparent blue cubes Major World Edit command rework based on Elvas' suggestions. Air brush placement quantity is now a % value instead of fixed value. New option for Paint brush: Placement % Move, Selection and Repeat tool can now also be operated by "Look direction" instead of N/E/S/W/U/D only New constraint system. "/we constrain selection" constrains all World Edit operations to the current selection only. "/we constrain none" to return to default behavior New flip system: "/we flip (n|e|s|w|u|d|l|x|y|z)" flips selected area in-place in given direction (cardinal, look direction or axis) Fixed chisel brush icon black instead of white Fixed major derps happening on block entities when using undo/redo after certain operations Fixed schematic rotation: don't abort with exception if a block returns an invalid rotation, instead log an error and use unrotated variant Added a couple of aliases to /we marked commands Feature: Added capability for server owners to compact savegames /db vacuum: Recreate savegame to minimize disk space /db prune [threshold] confirm: Deletes chunk columns where there are less than [threshold] player edits (direct block placements/breakings by a player) since 1.18.0 - note that this also allows the game engine to refresh (re-generate) the world with latest version worldgen in all these areas A full compact process looks like this: /wgen autogen 0 (disable generation of chunks) /db prune 5 confirm (delete all chunks with less than 5 edits) /db vacuum (compact database) Feature: All Treasure chests have now more valuable loot in them Feature: More streamlined introduction into the game's mechanics (WIP). Instead of a dialog about the Handbook overlaid when the game first starts, now when launching the game for the first time, the player can select their character and 15 seconds after selection a small HUD element will appear on the left side offering help - this will open an Introduction dialog with links to the Handbook and the tutorial. Feature: Added a stack randomizer for all Jonas items Tweak: Can now shift+left click armor and wearables into the character inventory Tweak: Show appreciation where it's due: new petseraph animation (untested) Tweak: Entities standing on a rotating Quern now rotate as well Tweak: Added tarnished steel beams Tweak: Added visual hints that the Library resonator (in the Resonance Archives) is interactable Tweak: World info hover box now only shows the differences from the default configuration Tweak: Game text fine tuning Fixed: Liquid containers showing only first decimal place and thus rounding the value Tweak: Removed the '(Experimental)' suffix to large world sizes.

Creative mode configurable block that, when created during worldgen as part of a schematic can randomly turn into one of 10 blocks. Using meta-filler block as input for the randomizer block now forces air blocks at that location Feature: Chiseled blocks should now support worldgen blocklayer replacement when using the new meta-blocklayer block as placeholder material Feature: Wearable gear animations support. Models configured with a step parent and backdrop shape can now be animated in VSMC Feature: Added a somewhat more Blender-compatible animations mode (via version:1 attribute for each animation) Feature: Randomizer block and microblocks now respect worldgen schematic replace block properties to conform to local rock types if they are made of granite Tweak: Loot vessel drops no longer hardcoded but configurable in the block type json file Tweak: Can use stack randomizers to get resolved when used as a mob drop Tweak: Allow shipping of .dll files inside a mod's native/ folder Tweak: Game now logs a warning if the obsolete Collectible GrindedStack property is set Tweak: Added api.Event.OnEntityLoaded event Tweak: Disallow registering of recipes in-code at a launch phase that would cause random crashes Tweak: Added Δx/y/z fields to the block selection editor (.bsedit) to move selections around Tweak: Game will now print a warning on duplicate animation codes Tweak: Avoid game crashing from improperly configured liquid containers Tweak: Can now define player bot inventory via inventory:{} object in the entity type json file: [....] eyeHeight: 1.7, attributes: { inventory: [ { type: "item", code: "blade-blackguard-iron" }, { type: "item", code: "armor-body-improvised-wood" } ], [...] Tweak: Added "ServerIdentifier" GUID to serverconfig.json Tweak: BlockPos now includes a dimension field as well as x, y, z values, see documentation for Mini Dimensions Tweak: In IBlockAccessor, position-based methods with BlockPos parameters should be used where possible in place of x, y, z parameters, for future dimension compatibility Tweak: Include OpenTK.Audio.OpenAL.dll and OpenTK.Mathematics.dll in server builds since native libs are already there Refactor: Collectible.OnBeforeRender(): The passed ItemRenderInfo.ModelRef property has a changed type MeshRef=>MultiTextureMeshRef. Instead of calling api.Render.UploadMesh() you now need to call api.Render.UploadMultiTextureMesh() to acquire this new type. To manually render such meshref, use api.Render.RenderMultiTextureMesh() Refactor: Renamed Block.PriorityInteract to PlacedPriorityInteract. Added Collectible.HeldPriorityInteract Refactor: IRenderAPI.GetItemStackRenderInfo new argument: dt Refactor: Method BlockEntity.OnPlacementBySchematic() has now 2 more arguments for the rocktype info Refactor: Fox entity types now in one file instead of six.

Originally had only and 80% chance of spawning the main entity and then 80% chance of spawning one of the companion codes. Now the main entity is always spawned first, and every subsequent entity is selected from the companions list. Also the spawner had an hidden bias towards preferring spawning baby creatures due to their smaller hitbox Fixed: When on IServerPlayer.Disconnect() is called it would crash the client Fixed: Multiple instance detection by using a named mutex (since net7) Fixed: CollectibleBehavior.OnHeldAttack* methods where not getting called View full record 18 2 10 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornet Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) HOLY MOLY! I didn't think a whole lot about the first-person animation rework much, but now after trying the new build in ~10 minutes of gameplay it has an INCREDIBLE impact on how the game feels! The fact it works for both hands, the double-handed axe grasp, the way your arm moves when climbing ladders - all of this stuff in first person is incredibly aesthetically and immersion-pleasing. EDIT: After some further gameplay, I do have some complaints - the attack with a weapon is now synced to the actual animation, which is a lot slower. I only had the blackguard shortsword at hand to test this (it has this weird "piercing" animation), but if we truly did get our effective attack speed reduced then it's a rather significant nerf, which makes taking down bells a lot harder (less DPS means longer time for it to DING DONG). [Edit 2: ok, it might be just very gimmicky/unpolished in the case of the blackguard shorstword, the steel knife has a much faster animation, which, oddly enough, makes it a vastly superior weapon overall]. The "player hurt" animation now plays in first person as well and from what I've experienced it INTERRUPTS your attack animation. Which means being hit by an enemy can prevent you from attacking. The "skinning"/harvesting right-click animation with the knife no longer plays any sound. While I know which creatures are "harvestable", it's kind of unclear now when the right-click with the knife is functional and when it isn't, because the animation plays regardless of what's in front of you. Also VERY HAPPY about the visual map change! It may be a bit "too" bleached out now, but it's definitely the solution to my eternal problem of seeing those ugly seasonal square patches of contrasting colors. My only other complaint (other than the slightly too discolored aesthetic that is) is that it updates to the new design in real time - so you have to personally re-explore all uncovered areas of the map to update it to the new look on a pre-existing world. Animal catching is a feature that's been moaned about for... forever! So glad we can stuff the chickens in boxes at long last! Although the current domestication requirement seems kind of beyond the point for the feature... and yes, I did see the info about catching wild animals being WIP. Also positively surprised at the usage with permission of mod assets regarding the deer. I always thought it would be a shame not to add some of fantastic mod features into the vanilla game. I'm kind of biased myself in that I never got much into playing in a modded game (though I'm not strictly anti-mod or anything like that), so I'm glad to see that it's still a possibility. So how about them bee houses, eh...? Edited October 28, 2023 by Khornet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filip Nowak Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Hoooraaaaay! I'm so excited by the Mini Dimension System - the system I dreamed of for so long time! So, can I looking forward to: Construction of large ocean-going ships with which we will sail the seas? Construction of various hovercrafts? Construction of a horse-drawn wagons? A possibility to build a house or a whole street, rotated for example by 30 degrees related to the standard map? Am I having exaggerated expectations?

Khornet Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Oof, I can't seem to open any chests or item containers on the new build and can't eat food from the bowl. Guess I'm gonna have to wait a bit more for stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwind Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 The recording of prospecting results on the map is going to low-key turn out the biggest gameplay improvement in the entire 1.19 update, mark my words It makes one of the top three most popular mods completely redundant, and adds in critical information that new players need when trying to figure out on their own how the system works, without reading a guide. Additionally, it'll distract from the per-mille number that way too many people pay way too much attention to, which should further remove confusion. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amellis Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) For some odd reason I can't seem to chop trees, even using an axe on a tree in creative mode does nothing... Also killing one of the new deers showed me an empty inventory, but clicking the empty slots made the loot appear. I got large, medium, and small pelts out of a single animal! The new first-person animations are super cool, but it seems that for me they go back to the third-person ones (?) after a few seconds. For example, I equip the axe and my character holds it in both hands sideways for 5 seconds or so... Then put it down and I can't see which tool I'm holding. Edit: Anims / Chopping bug Playing on a vanilla, fresh install on Windows 11 "Absolute Maximum" preset on full screen...

Wiem, że można zmienić nową mapę na starą przez komendę. Nowa mapa jest bardzo nieczytelna. Stara mapa była genialna: czytelna i przejrzysta. Nowa mapa bardzo przekombinowana.

Aedis Posted November 3, 2023 Report Share Posted November 3, 2023 With suddent bloom of chiselled block from ruins would be nice to have means to 'separate' blocks, that is having buch of cobblestone/muddy gravel ones produce few full cobblestone and few muddy gravel ones. Even if such restore would be lossy, it would feel more natural, as you probably should be able to 'clean' gravel that was covering old stairs completely.

Bumber Posted November 3, 2023 Report Share Posted November 3, 2023 (edited) Are dry mash stacking issues going to be addressed as part of the dejank? There's also an old issue with buckets not stacking, if that hasn't been addressed in the prereleases yet. Edit: Also the issue where you can take old milk, etc., and put it into a barrel of fresh milk and it will use the fresh value instead of averaging.

sirgoute Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 On 10/28/2023 at 4:11 PM, Tyron said: Dear Extraordinary Survivalists v1.19.0-pre.1, a preview release, can now be downloaded through the account manager (section "Other Goodies"). We are proud to present, our next major update to Vintage Story! The working title for this update was "Dejank Redux" - polishing of existing game mechanics. In fact, it started out with a gigantic list of items from each team member on what they individually felt could need addressing, we then narrowed it down to just a small handful. Those plans included a revisit to the death and reviving mechanics, but that became displaced in favour of a cleanup/upgrades on the game engine itself, as well as many other tweaks that also felt befitting to the title of "Dejank". As usual, some new features always manage to sneakily sneak into our updates As with our previous updates, we continue our tradition of challenging the status quo of what this game engine can do - this time primarily by introducing a new concept we call Mini Dimensions. It is our hope that once this tech has matured, it will enable all kinds of movable multiblock shenanigans. We are excited to explore this new frontier with you, dear Community! Juicy Engine Tech a-plenty This update contains a lot of new and improved engine tech that will enable new types of game play while also ensuring that the engine still has plenty of room for the game to grow. Mini Dimension System: There is now rudimentary support for world chunks to be rendered into the game world independent of their position in the standard map system. In the long term, this should allow for multiblock vehicles and other wicked mechanical shenanigans. As a first proof of concept, when importing schematics (or copying from the clipboard) through World Edit, you can now see a live preview of all blocks, positioned using this system. For technical info, see our documentation file: movchunks public notes.txt Unlimited textures: The textures for blocks, items and entities are no longer limited to a single texture atlas. Therefore, mods which add a lot of new textures should never run out of texture atlas space again! This multi-atlas system was partially included since the game's early days and is now finally complete. New First-person mode: Took a lot of tuning, but visible hands are finally a thing now Wearable animation support: Items that the player wears can now be animated. This is important for some clothing types such as skirts. Animation system v2: A new data format, more compatible to other animation formats, such as the one made with Blender (use with Blender still relies on a community made converter, however) Connected textures: Rudimentary support for this now exists, to allow e.g. a 64x64 texture be mapped onto 2x2x2 blocks Chat commands code rewrite: In v1.18 we introduced a new API for commands - one that would allow for automatic documentation and future capability for a command auto-complete feature. In v1.19 the monumental effort of migrating hundreds of existing commands to this new API is now complete! World Edit commands consistency overhaul: The World Edit system grew organically over time, and it was a prime candidate for a revisit. We introduced a new, consistent command naming scheme and also filled in some gaps in its feature set. More de-jank to come still. Chiseling system upgrades: We continue our efforts towards ever tighter integration of chiseled blocks as a "first class citizen". Chiseled blocks now support decor layers, naturally integrate into the terrain when they are part of a ruin, and can become submerged in soil. Please note 1. This first preview release is an unfinished update, mostly intended for modders and very adventurous players. You will encounter major bugs, incomplete features, possible performance issues and crashes. 2. Further preview releases (including fixes for bugs in pre.1) will only be posted in Discord #news and on info.vintagestory.at and not on this blog. As usual, a new v1.19 blog post will then come when the first full release candidate (rc.1) is ready 3. If testing 1.19 on an old world from 1.18 or earlier, we strongly recommend making a backup copy before loading the world in 1.19. Still planned for rc.1 Many of the new mechanics and game content in this preview are in a rough state, especially the new deer, ruins and new First-person mode. They will require a lot of tuning and tweaking before we can go stable. Also wild animal catching is still unfinished. Screenshots / Gifs Overhauled First-person mode: Now with hands! WIP Cave-in system: Build support beams to prevent getting buried alive (only on by default in the Wilderness Survival mode) Added 11 species of deer and more! WIP (Antlers still missing) Animal catching: Domesticated animals can be picked up with a basket Fully reworked ruins. Very much still a work in progress (WIP), they don't all fully spawn yet. New Accessibility settings Added Command Handbook (in Creative mode) Added Scroll racks, also lets you store Tuning cylinders World map tweaks: No longer super revealing by default, but instead it displays your prospecting results. (WIP) Character selector tweaks: More canon hair colors, better randomizer and the ability to use your last selection from another world / server More chisel power: Now supports decors and topsoil Overhauled/New 3D models for troughs, buckets and seeds Added live preview during schematic import Game updates Feature: Overhauled First-person mode (WIP): Now a hybrid between the old standard fp mode and the Immersive fp mode. We only render the player's hands and arms, their position depends on current actions and items held Feature: Added moose, elk, and 11 species of deer, each has several antler variants. (based on the assets from the Capreolinae mod, with permission. Thanks Tentharchitect!) Feature: Cave-in system in the Wilderness Survival playstyle. Solid rock and cracked rock now collapses if not supported while it is being broken/placed. Enabled via world config. Use wooden beams to stabilize mines and tunnels! Feature: Added Accessibility tab. Moved View Bobbing and Toggle Sprint settings there. Added 2 new accessibility settings: Camera shake strength and Wireframe thickness. Tweak: Added ability to adjust temporal instability waviness in the new Accessibility tab Tweak: Added experimental minbrightness client config, potential use for YouTubers/streamers to prevent pitch-black areas. Feature: Added Command Handbook. Available in Creative mode through the game pause menu, or type command .chb to open Feature: Visual fine tuning Improved frost overlay visuals on creatures/traders - frost now only applies during precipitation or shortly thereafter, improved visual quality and some body parts are no longer completely frosted over, such as the trader's head Re-worked large trough, small trough and bucket models Crop seeds and grain items now have 3D models Improved SSAO quality - no longer has odd artifacts (thanks to @nug on Discord) Added more depth to Dry stone wall textures. Visual tweaks Redwood beams: wood grain was in the wrong direction Fixed Aged fancy bed having bright green bed cover. The bed cover is now faded, aged green Replaced Resonance Archives clutter bed with updated model. Added colorful linen textures for mattress sides and pillow. Added shading texture overlay for mattress sides and pillow. Fixed bed-fency-open clutter block missing textures Faster storm dust particles Improved seraph idle animation Feature: Added scroll racks. Storage space for scrolls, papers and tuning cylinders Feature: Added cracked ashlar blocks, deadfungi and spotty mold decor layer blocks and some book clutter blocks Feature: Prospecting pick heatmap: added tabs to the world map Feature: New more medieval looking world map visuals, using the color palette from the Medieval Map mod (by permission from Rangelost, with many thanks). Classic world map visuals can be restored using the commands "/worldconfigcreate bool colorAccurateWorldmap true" server-wide or "/player [playername] grant colorAccurateWorldmap" for each player Feature: Chiseling system upgrades Decor overlay support as well as support for grass covered topsoil block. Can use knife to remove decor layers again. Can now properly add more material to a chiseled block, useful when wanting to create a full block from 2 slabs When using slabs as input material the game did not correctly count already used material Chiseled blocks no longer have their name fixed to the block name first used during creation. If no custom name is set by the player, the chiseled block will now take on the name of the majority material World generation now fully supports chiseled blocks when part of a surface or underground ruin, i.e. chiseled block materials can adapt to local rock types and can get submerged into soil Feature: Ability to catch small tamed animals (generation 5+) with an empty reed chest. Requires one free backpack slot Feature: Raccoon and Fox pups now spawn in the world Feature: Improved character selector Players can now select their previously selected skin preferences, in the Create Character dialog via new 'Last selection' button Greatly reduced strange hair combinations when using the Randomize button Updated hair colors. Replaced all purple and pink shades. The selector no longer plays the seraph voice when the Create Character dialog first appears (too laggy in the first few frames to do so, can heavily skew sounds) Feature: Gameplay balancing tweaks and fixes Tweak: Double-headed drifters and Bells now have a chance to drop Jonas parts/sub-assemblies. Tweak: Double-headed drifters have a little more health now. Tweak: Made arid areas more arid (by further filling up lakes with blocks) Tweak: Being wet debuffs your warmth 50% more strongly, but players now get wet from snowfall 4 times more slowly than from rain Tweak: Nerfed fur clothing set warmth values, it was circumventing the need for clothing repair Tweak: Polar bears now cannot climb, but can swim faster than other bears Tweak: Wooden paths can now be made with any type of board Tweak: Plank path recipe now outputs 1 path per 2 boards (25% of previous output) Tweak: Archimedes Screw now only accepts plates of tool metals in its recipe Tweak: No fall damage when doing a gliding land while aiming less than 45° downwards, i.e. looking horizontal or upwards will negate all fall damage Tweak: Adjusted prices for a couple of trader goods. Linen now much more expensive, also raised Gambeson armor cost to match. Most tools slightly more expensive Antique armor cost now matches the value of the armor slot. Head armor cheapest, leg armor medium cost, chest armor most expensive Fixed: Players not receiving fall damage when touching a wall during the fall Fixed: Ingot piles were combustible Fixed: Tree seeds were not combustible Fixed: Fuel duration of Night vision goggles was not properly calculated (was only client side) Fixed: Damaged flax crop still giving a full yield of flax fibres Fixed: An upside half slab over a 1-deep hole is now no longer recognized as a cellar Fixed: Sleeping did not accelerate healing. Health and Hunger are now calculated based on in-game time instead of real world time. (Can adjust the heal regeneration speed and the hunger speed using commands /worldconfig playerHealthRegenSpeed 1 and /worldconfig playerHungerSpeed 1) Feature: Added a worldconfig option to change the health regeneration speed: "/worldconfig playerHealthRegenSpeed 1". Also available on world creation Feature: Can now ignite extinct torches on lit torches, firepits, forges, pit kilns, etc. Feature: World Edit upgrades Schematic import (and copying from clipboard) now previews a live version instead of half-transparent blue cubes Major World Edit command rework based on Elvas' suggestions. Air brush placement quantity is now a % value instead of fixed value. New option for Paint brush: Placement % Move, Selection and Repeat tool can now also be operated by "Look direction" instead of N/E/S/W/U/D only New constraint system. "/we constrain selection" constrains all World Edit operations to the current selection only. "/we constrain none" to return to default behavior New flip system: "/we flip (n|e|s|w|u|d|l|x|y|z)" flips selected area in-place in given direction (cardinal, look direction or axis) Fixed chisel brush icon black instead of white Fixed major derps happening on block entities when using undo/redo after certain operations Fixed schematic rotation: don't abort with exception if a block returns an invalid rotation, instead log an error and use unrotated variant Added a couple of aliases to /we marked commands Feature: Added capability for server owners to compact savegames /db vacuum: Recreate savegame to minimize disk space /db prune [threshold] confirm: Deletes chunk columns where there are less than [threshold] player edits (survival block placements/breakings) since 1.18 - note that this also allows the game engine to refresh (re-generate) the world with latest version worldgen in all these areas A full compact process looks like this: /wgen autogen 0 (disable generation of chunks) /db prune 5 confirm (delete all chunks with less than 5 edits) /db vacuum (compact database) Feature: All Treasure chests have now more valuable loot in them Feature: More streamlined introduction into the game's mechanics (WIP). Instead of a dialog about the Handbook overlaid when the game first starts, now when launching the game for the first time, the player can select their character and 15 seconds after selection a small HUD element will appear on the left side offering help - this will open an Introduction dialog with links to the Handbook and the tutorial. Feature: Added a stack randomizer for all Jonas items Tweak: Can now shift+left click armor and wearables into the character inventory Tweak: Show appreciation where it's due: new petseraph animation (untested) Tweak: Entities standing on a rotating Quern now rotate as well Tweak: Added tarnished steel beams Tweak: Added visual hints that the Library resonator (in the Resonance Archives) is interactable Tweak: World info hover box now only shows the differences from the default configuration Tweak: Game text fine tuning Fixed: Liquid containers showing only first decimal place and thus rounding the value Tweak: Removed the '(Experimental)' suffix to large world sizes.

Creative mode configurable block that, when created during worldgen as part of a schematic can randomly turn into one of 10 blocks. Using meta-filler block as input for the randomizer block now forces air blocks at that location Feature: Chiseled blocks should now support worldgen blocklayer replacement when using the new meta-blocklayer block as placeholder material Feature: Wearable gear animations support. Models configured with a step parent and backdrop shape can now be animated in VSMC Feature: Added a somewhat more Blender-compatible animations mode (via version:1 attribute for each animation) Feature: Randomizer block and microblocks now respect worldgen schematic replace block properties to conform to local rock types if they are made of granite Tweak: Loot vessel drops no longer hardcoded but configurable in the block type json file Tweak: Can use stack randomizers to get resolved when used as a mob drop Tweak: Allow shipping of .dll files inside a mod's native/ folder Tweak: Game now logs a warning if the obsolete Collectible GrindedStack property is set Tweak: Added api.Event.OnEntityLoaded event Tweak: Disallow registering of recipes in-code at a launch phase that would cause random crashes Tweak: Added Δx/y/z fields to the block selection editor (.bsedit) to move selections around Tweak: Game will now print a warning on duplicate animation codes Tweak: Avoid game crashing from improperly configured liquid containers Tweak: Can now define player bot inventory via inventory:{} object in the entity type json file: [....] eyeHeight: 1.7, attributes: { inventory: [ { type: "item", code: "blade-blackguard-iron" }, { type: "item", code: "armor-body-improvised-wood" } ], [...] Tweak: Added "ServerIdentifier" GUID to serverconfig.json Tweak: BlockPos now includes a dimension field as well as x, y, z values, see documentation for Mini Dimensions Tweak: In IBlockAccessor, position-based methods with BlockPos parameters should be used where possible in place of x, y, z parameters, for future dimension compatibility Tweak: Include OpenTK.Audio.OpenAL.dll and OpenTK.Mathematics.dll in server builds since native libs are already there Refactor: Collectible.OnBeforeRender(): The passed ItemRenderInfo.ModelRef property has a changed type MeshRef=>MultiTextureMeshRef.

To manually render such meshref, use api.Render.RenderMultiTextureMesh() Refactor: Renamed Block.PriorityInteract to PlacedPriorityInteract. Added Collectible.HeldPriorityInteract Refactor: IRenderAPI.GetItemStackRenderInfo new argument: dt Refactor: Method BlockEntity.OnPlacementBySchematic() has now 2 more arguments for the rocktype info Refactor: Fox entity types now in one file instead of six.

Originally had only and 80% chance of spawning the main entity and then 80% chance of spawning one of the companion codes. Now the main entity is always spawned first, and every subsequent entity is selected from the companions list. Also the spawner had an hidden bias towards preferring spawning baby creatures due to their smaller hitbox Fixed: When on IServerPlayer.Disconnect() is called it would crash the client Fixed: Multiple instance detection by using a named mutex (since net7) Fixed: CollectibleBehavior.OnHeldAttack* methods where not getting called View full record very nice work , congratulations !

DrEngine Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 Tyron, what abot world parts export/import limits ???!!! I can export ("/we mex/mexc") and successfully import part about max 100x100 height=255. Not bigger. If try to export/import bigger part the part is missing at the other end than I'm standing always. Missing chunks are placed in "circular" way. It seems that more far from my position the chunk is the more probability it'll not be placed. See my another thread in Vintarian support forum, please. I need to transfer my old buildings including landscape (1100x1100) from 1.17 to new version 1.18 because of map reset. We're multiplayer server with long history and map reset is always a big problem - we want to keep parts of our old map. If the transfered part is properly cut-off from the old map (by making the border fall to sea) and placed to the new map in pure sea it can be seamlesly placed and border is nice. The problem is the transfer itself will demand 121 operations export/import because now it is not possible to reliably export import more than 100x100 world part. Can you please have a look at this issue and check if it can be corrected or limits raised ??? THANKS !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
