Tyron Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Dear Extraordinary Survivalists v1.17.0, a stable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. Time for stable! As with the 1.16 release, there is still a number of known bugs for some players, but I estimate it is more stable than 1.16.5 by now. This major update contains over 350 features, tweaks and fixes. Getting this update out took us longer than we hoped for, as we also spent roughly 4 months creating a new trailer alongside and did some deep engine changes. As always, this update would not have been possible without the incredible amounts of feedback and bug reports by you, the community. We are very grateful for your support, thank you! Eerily repetitive to my previous stable post, the theme of this update also majorly morphed during development. While the main focus was meant to be de-jank, we also added visual spectacle for use in the new trailer, new creatures, some significant performance improvements, massively reworked the water physics system and added some features long requested by the community, such as armor repair, fish and an oxygen meter. For 1.18 we hope to primarily focus on story-telling and game lore with lots of new dynamic structures added to our world generator. Stay tuned! Screenshots / Gifs Added Lightning strikes and lightning rods to protect against lightning strike damage The player model now reacts to being cold and when exposed to strong winds. Added sand storm fog effect in sandy areas. Added player lookat mode Can now sit down on block edges and pet animals Huge water phyics update: Water is now stored in an independent "layer" - blocks can be submerged, and water can flow through blocks Added oxygen meter Added Salmon fish, non-interactable for now (WIP) Added 200+ clutter blocks in preparation for the Lore Update Added gazelles Added brown bears, black bears, pandas and sun bears Improved termite mound models with much larger variants, termite mound color matches the local type of sand Enhanced temporal storm and low stability visuals Armor repair and visible armor damage Many more varieties of shield Added a new grass type and a new cactus type. Improved berry bushes, water lilies and breadfruit appearance Reducing resolution in the graphics settings (for higher FPS) no longer makes the game blurry Improved sunset ambient visuals More bling: improved reflective effects for metals and crystals New Lava visuals to look more like real lava Ground storage improvements - items can now be placed with any orientation (respects placement orientation) Ground storage improvements - can now place a selection of tools on the ground New wrench tool to modify the orientation of a selection of block types Armor stand pose can now be changed, using the wrench tool Prettier main menu screens - dialogs such as Settings are now drawn over the background, and the background is smoother Berry bushes are now fluffy (but can be pruned). Fences now attach to more solid block faces All game updates since 1.16.5 Feature: Lightning strikes! Damage creatures in a 8 block radius Lightning rods can redirect lightning, be sure to place them in an elevated spot Feature: 200+ new blocks: lore rich "clutter" blocks and bookshelves with rich visuals. Currently these are only in the Creative inventory. These will be added to Survival worldgen (in ruins, tombs, etc....) in the future 1.18 Lore Update Feature: Huge water physics update All non-solid blocks can now be submerged, water can flow through them and they can become embedded in ice if it freezes Stones, boulders, seashells and ruins are now also generated underwater during world generation Directional water physics. Doors, slabs, chiseled blocks, etc. now provide directional blocking of water flow for greater realism Panning from sand and gravel blocks which are in or next to water, the reduced layers block can also become submerged Feature: Added oxygen meter. Players can now only hold breath for 20 seconds underwater, as opposed to infinite air Feature: More visual spectacle during temporal storms and low stability Added large turning gears in the sky Additional "flowing rust" shader effects on blocks More wicked glitches and particles Feature: Improved Player armor Armor no longer disappears when its durability reaches 0, but it will lose all its protection. Protection degrades as the armor durability reduces Armor can now be repaired using its base material. Repairing armor has half the material cost. Lowered the cost of crafting lamellar armor to be more accessible. Rebalanced blackguard and forlorn armor crafting costs to match repair costs for other chain/plate armors. Forlorn now requires some luxury materials to suit its fanciness. Damaged armor will look visibly damaged Feature: 300 types of shields There are now nearly 300 types of shields in the game. Materials can be mixed and matched. More shield models to be added in the future Shield durability is now dynamically determined based on the materials used: hardwoods and stronger metals add durability to the base durability value Added metal hoops and bosses. Made by smithing. Shields are now crafted with hoops and bosses instead of metal plates Rebalanced shield durability. Blackguard shield no longer top durability, but cheaper to make than full metal shields Feature: More and prettier flora Added red top grass Added flowering water lily Added silver torch cactus to desert mountains. Painful on touch! Berry bushes are now fluffy (can be pruned with shears) Improved seasonal colors for ferns Improved lichen model Made breadfruit texture more spiky looking. Ripe breadfruits are now larger Creative-only dandelion and acanthus flowers Feature: New and improved fauna New creature: Gazelle. Male, female and calf. Found in warm/dry climates (savannah) New creatures: Brown bear, black bears, sun bears and pandas now spawn in the world The first fish: Salmon. No fishing or boats just yet, the salmon is only decorative right now Fox pups now spawn as well Can now pet tameable animals when they are generation 1 or higher (right-click a creature to pet it). Petting causes creatures to stand peacefully Termite mound remake. Added much larger versions. All termite mounds are now rock typed. Added rare large patches to Savannahs Feature: Improved Creature AI Attacked creatures should now react more quickly Improved creature AI tactics - when an attacking creature cannot reach its target and gets hurt, it will make a tactical retreat. Every time it gets hurt again, it will retreat further. Should mitigate the pillaring + ranged attack weakness of most creatures. Fixed animals sprinting around a target because they overshoot the destination. Now they slow down near the target Bears and other large creatures in general should no longer become stuck when wandering Creatures walking into solid walls will attempt slight strafing movements to get around the wall Feature: Extensive visual tuning Much improved graphics quality when using resolutions below 100% - as it is no longer blurry (therefore, lower resolutions can be used to improve FPS without much loss of fidelity, especially on 4k monitors) Improved sun ambient color and water reflections to reflect the sky colors Prettier main menu - all main menu screens are now dialog based over the background image Much improved reflective shader effect and more configuration options for modders for reflective stuff Improved lava visuals and effects Added more metal pouring vfx, added bouncy particles when smithing Fences now attach to chiselled blocks Tweak: Visual improvements on the death screen (permanent damage overlay + sepia effect) Tweak: More sparkly crystals Tweak: Larger bells and locusts Tweak: Added blur effect to dialog title bars, various other minor visual tweaks Tweak: Boosted SSAO intensity by 40% Tweak: Third person camera zoom with +/- keys is now smooth instead of instant Tweak: Added some glowy flicker to burning forgesTweak: Placed curd bundles now rotateable Tweak: More particles for burning coal in forges Tweak: Some extra seraph head bobbing while drunk Tweak: Beeswax and Honeycomb now displayed inside crates Tweak: Bees no longer clip through walls Tweak: Made filled crates and barrels fuller Tweak: Block broken particle spawns are now multiplayer synced Tweak: Added seraph chiselling animation Tweak: A bit of rotation randomization on items placed in a display case Tweak: Chickens now peck on the ground for longer, but now also peck for random durations Tweak: Gravel texture now randomly rotated, which greatly mitigates any repetitivenessTweak: Fine tune amaranth crop texture, more fluff to some of the seraph hairstyles, fine tune layer of sticks model and texture, thicker stem for the bamboo sapling, added a bit of thickness to the condenser model Fixed: Visual glitch glowy geometry during fog Fixed: Weird AO on shelves against the wall Fixed: Sun specular reflections on water no longer working since 1.16 Fixed: Distant tall grass noticeably disappearing (not being drawn at all) Fixed: Minor visual glitches when distant tall grass seen against sky or water Fixed: Terrain below flowing water had inconsistent shading at the end of the water flow Fixed: Some inconsistencies in block sunlight levels below placed/flowing water blocks Fixed: white or wrong particle colors when breaking leaves, fruit-tree leaves, berrybushes and waterlilies Feature: Massive performance tuning Faster chunk loading: We have changed our internal compression algorithm from deflate to ZStd, which is several times faster for both the server and clients and single-player (details: on Windows platform a native library libzstd is used, on Linux and OSX platforms, currently, a .NET version of the Zstd library is used) Even faster chunk loading and reduced memory usage: We have changed our internal chunk data storage method to palletised chunk storage, which needs two to four times less memory on average while the game is running, and made other improvements in memory efficiency, so the game uses less RAM while running, leading to smoother overall performance Faster worldgen: The worldgen can now usually "keep up" with player motion as the player moves into new areas of the map ~40% faster game starts: Lots of fine tuning and multithreading during the startup process should greatly reduce the game startup time. (Single player Creative world load time was 17 seconds in 1.16, now 10 seconds in 1.17, YMMV) Improved overall FPS: Grass and flowers are now (optionally) drawn using instanced rendering which improves FPS and allows more fine grained control over grass for future projects - this is an optional setting, enable it in Graphics settings, as it seems to cause some issues on some models of graphics card Improved server TPS: AI pathfinding is now multi-threaded; many other entity ticking performance improvements; mitigated slow ticks caused by drifter and butterfly spawning; mitigated slow ticks caused by farmland and berrybush; for significantly fewer slow ticks / lag spikes overall Greatly improved GUI dialog creation performance (the dialog edge blur algorithm now skips over the center part of the dialog) Reduced SSAO quality on the "Medium SSAO" setting for more FPS Improve FPS when rendering very large inventories, like the creative inventory (50 FPS -> 100 FPS) Tweak: Increased server MagicNumbers values to reflect faster chunk loading speeds and faster worldgen - servers are encouraged to experiment with the servermagicnumbers - especially ChunksColumnsToRequestPerTick, ChunksToSendPerTick and ChunkColumnsToGeneratePerThreadTick to find their own optimal values Temporal storm particles are now async for greater performance Feature: Added a wrench tool. Can be used to re-orient chutes, stairs, slabs, logs, pillars and plaster. Can now change armor stand arm pose with a wrench. Feature: Added Lookat camera mode. Makes it so that in the overhead camera mode the seraph looks into the camera. Enable via .clientconfigcreate overheadLookAt bool true Feature: Added Desert storms. Block colored fog effect in dry areas with lots of sand, when there are strong winds Feature: Reworked waypoint dialog. Icon and color are now a grid of clickable icons. Feature: Added craftable top hat, bamboo hat and straw hat Feature: Major player improvements Tweak: Seraph voices reworked. The previously experimental seraph voices system is now the new default. Tweak: Improved immersive first person mode. Death animation no longer glitching into blocks and knapping should be easier (work in progress) Feature: Sitting down on a block edge now uses a custom seraph pose (still quite buggy in multiplayer) Feature: Added "protect eyes" pose to seraph during strong winds Feature: Additional visual effects when cold Animals and players that are low body temperature now have a frost overlay on them (when the outside temperature is below -5 °C) Seraphs will have a freezing / shivering animation when cold Feature: Ground storage upgrades All tools can now be placed on the ground The rotation of the placed item now depends on the player's placing direction (used to be fixed) Flatter selection boxes for better visuals and more accurate sub-block placement Fixed wrong particle collision box with ground storage blocks Feature: Added "arctic supplies" stashes to arctic climates, comes in 40 variants Feature: New rain drip behavior for leaves and stick layers. Added Accumulating droplets. Keeps on dripping for a while after the rain stopped Feature: Handbook improvements The handbook now also shows how a block/item can be stored Added guides in the handbook on Dye Making and Ground Storage Added text about swapping glass panes to the lantern entry Added description of how to make ferrous (iron) anvils Chairs are now grouped in the handbook Improved handbook hotkey (<hk>) visuals. They now look like the hotkeys shown in the in-game block interaction help Feature: Added 6 new crock labels, dynamically chosen based on contents, including for when its contents are rotten Feature: Held candles now also emit light Feature: Added ability to place sideways hay bales Feature: New 3D models for tailor shoes, merchant shoes, great steppe boots, and reindeer herder shoes Feature: The longblade is no more. Long live the falx! Feature: Support for 2x1 paintings. Added "sodhouse" and "lastday" paintings Feature: Worldgen tuning Now less trees in hot and dry areas Reduced spawn of water in dry places by making lakes/seas more shallow. In existing 1.16 worlds this can cause lines of water at chunk borders with newly generated map regions, but only below sea level in dry areas. Loose stones and boulders now also spawn in caves Tweak: Game controls fine tuning In the Settings menu, the Mouse settings and Keyboard controls are now split across two tabs New controls option: Ctrl-click and Shift-click mouse modifiers can now be separate from the Sprint and Sneak keys (so you can re-assign Sprint to something other than the Ctrl key, but still use a Ctrl-click mouse action) Keyboard controls are now more logically grouped in the Settings menu When the Handbook refers to keyboard controls, it shows the current assigned key Block interaction help now shows mouse modifiers (by default, Ctrl- and Shift-) before the mouse button Translation: added missing lang strings for some controls e.g. Show Handbook, Show/Hide Minimap Bulk add material to the Bloomery is now Ctrl + right-click, for consistency with other bulk adds Tweak: Gameplay balance tuning Major berry bush and crop growth times and yield rebalance, with the ultimate goal being crops becoming in sync with the seasons. We carefully looked at growth times versus satiety to redo most of the numbers we used to have on our crops. This is a work in progress, feel free to provide feedback. Added a small respawn timer: the death dialog now appears with a 1.5 seconds delay Double the drop rate of crystallized ores. They were waaaay too rare IMO Hares can no longer jump over fences in snowy conditions; reduced hare spawn max light level from 8 to 6 to further mitigate them spawning in farmlands Boosted breadfruit satiety 120 -> 200 Empty firepits now have a 4x burn time bonus instead of 3x Chiselling now requires a hammer in the off-hand in Survival mode, but does not consume durability on the hammer Aged wooden crates can no longer be made from aged wooden boards. To compensate, traders will now buy aged wooden crates for more than they used to Can now craft the stone coffin from basalt and peridotite stone Tree felling time is now more based on log count, less based on leaves count Tree felling time also based on wood type; hardwoods take 30% longer; tropical hardwoods longer still Higher tier metal axes fell trees slightly faster than previously Purpleheart requires at least a copper/scrap axe to fell; ebony requires at least a bronze axe Crop growth times are now calculated in months instead of days, so setting shorter months means quicker growth times. The default growth times remain unchanged Reduced respawn speed of wolves, slightly reduced spawn rate of butterflies Hares now eat sunflower and cassava crops in their early stages Forest floor blocks when broken now drop low fertility soil instead of medium fertility Tweak: Minor dejanking Tweak: Added barrel open/close sound. Can now right click barrel again to close gui Tweak: Tree seeds can now be placed in display cases Tweak: Changed behavior of how items flow in chutes to be more intuitive Tweak: Wolf howl animation now more synchronized to the howl sound Fixed: Pounders pounding in the wrong direction (visual bug) Fixed: Texture overlapping issue on the 3-flower lupin Fixed: Helve hammer obstructed by a block where it doesn't feel like it should get obstructed Fixed: Multiple visual issues with potted bamboo and lily of the valley Fixed: Wrong texture resolution on seaweed Tweak: Allowed glass to be chiselled. WIP: still didn't fix the wrong faces issue with them though or the wrong texture Tweak: Worldedit updates Feature: Can now use worldedit to place fruit trees Fixed: Worldedit, using "Redo" after a move tool operation not working Fixed: 3 bugs related to importing entities stored in block schematics Tweak: Worldedit control panel now allows setting of fractional movespeeds Tweak: Changing the current selection is now also stored in the undo/redo history state Tweak: The Magic select mode will now ignore tallgrass by default Tweak: Added a flood fill mode more suitable for placing lakes Tweak: The flood fill tool now will replace all blocks of blockmaterial Plant Tweak: Left clicking with the flood fill tool now performs the opposite effect, a "flood erase" Tweak: Worldedit: Added server overload protection toggle to the options dialog Fixed: Multiple fixes with "/we mr" no longer creates 2 history states, also updates the current selection and does not move the whole selection up by several blocks Tweak: Worldedit GUI upgrades: Fixed: Drop down scrollbar was not visible Select tool now has 2 new buttons: Rotate CW and Rotate CCW Increased flat fog slider range 4-fold Tweak: Various tweaks to chat commands /time command now disallows setting of negative values because it has undefined behavior Added "/player [plrname] entity intox" subcommand to set intoxication value Added "/debug delplr name" to delete playerdata in a savegame Added "/player playername movespeed" subcommand The output of "/debug logticks" is now hierarchical and more informative Fixed /weather setev not working Tweak: Gold and silver falx are now steel blades with gold/silver flair. As such, their recipes and stats have changed to be similar to steel falx Tweak: Forlorn Estoc now uses a thrust animation in 3rd person to better suit the weapon Tweak: Added a description to wolf pup item to indicate that it's hostile and some traders highly value it Tweak: Can now place side-growing mushrooms in creative mode Tweak: Chat dialog less obtrusive (more transparent) when not focused (experimental) Tweak: Trimmed the hunter class flavor text Tweak: Changed name of hacking spear to tuning spear to better fit the setting. Also gave it a description so players know what it does Tweak: Hacking spear can be made with tin bronze and bismuth bronze spears now Tweak: Increased third-person in-hand model size for full blocks Tweak: Added the 'Tinkerer' trait to the Clockmaker class: functions like the other unique crafting traits Tweak: Savegames should now be more robust against ungraceful exits in regards of entity spawning Tweak: Various improvements to creature bots (we used these for making the 2022 trailer) Added bear and hacked locust bot More configurable playerbots Can wear backpacks, quivers and shields.

Search range for solid land broadened, if it still fails to find land, it will spawn a block of planks for the player to rest on instead, i.e. a mini-raft Tweak: Dye System fine tune Dyes are now made with water instead of diluted alum/cassiterite/chromite. Need to be sealed for a while before they're ready. Dye-making now requires a barrel for mordants and a barrel for dyes instead of combining both of them Reduced and standardized the amount of alum/cassiterite/chromite needed to make a mordant Added a mordanted cloth variant, which is now used for dyeing Reduced the amount of dye liquid needed to dye cloth Woad blue now has its own dye barrel since it doesn't require a mordant Black dye now made by adding pigment to gray dye, similar to orange dye Removed Brown dye until we add more pigment options for it.

Costs less in general now, and crafting costs scale based on hide size instead of all having the same cost, e.g. 8 small hides are worth the same as 1 huge hide. Tweak: Adjusted lamellar armor crafting to follow the same principle of scaling hide sizes as above ^. Wood lamellar can now be repaired, only requiring firewood. Tweak: Oiled/curing hides now also scale according to hide size. For example, 1 piece of fat can make 4 small oiled hides, 2 medium hides, or 1 large hide. Huge hide now requires 2 fat. Tweak: Can now do "/worldconfigcreate int lungCapacity [milliseconds]" to define for how long a player has air (default: 20000) Tweak: Can now do "/worldconfigcreate int fertilityRecoverySpeed [speed]" to define farmland recovery speed (1.16 default: 0.33) Tweak: Added missing mushroom ingredient names Tweak: Disabled all custom cursors on MacOS, mouse controls may now be less glitchy on MacOS Catalina and above Tweak: Added helpful descriptions for items that can be used as a mordant Tweak: Prospecting pick probe results are now translated into the players language on servers Tweak: Adjusted a couple animations to work better in Immersive First Person mode Tweak: Fish now die when exposed to air for 30 seconds.

Maelstrom Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Loving all the behind the scenes improvements!!! Hopefully two small requests (in the vein of All I want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth ) Make more temporal storm customization options (e.g. decouple strength and frequency). Give suevite the full building block palette (i.e. brick building block) as other stone variants (i.e. granite) Pretty Pleeeeaaaaase! I promise I'll be extra good this year.

Professor Dragon Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 There are so many great things in this update. I couldn't even begin to list the ones I liked, there are that many!

wasa Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 one concern i have with the update is tailors no longer have persistent value in multiplayer since repairing tailored armor is not class exclusive. If you want a recurve bow, sling, etc. you're always going to need the respective classes to obtain the items for whenever the inevitably break. with tailored armor the tailor makes the armor once and now they can be forgotten about forever! (Doubly so since armor doesn't drop on death either.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to use it when taking screenshots, but I don't know where to find it It's too late now, but it has resolved itself. It's usually in the 1.17.0 update, isn't it? I had translated the update information into Japanese, but it seems I missed it because there was too much information. It's not on the wiki, so I'd really like you to put the commands added in the upgrade on the wiki as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
