[Vampire+ Release] Version 0.23

Hello everyone,

This patch is the accumulation of a lot of things we tweaked on the game, it took us a while to finish everything but I hope you enjoy the final results!

Version 0.23.0

Fixes

• Fixed Kalyskah's and Amaras' eyes on the first cutscene;
• Fixed Brooke's speech logic so the quest can now be completed;
• Fixed vulva style slider on character customisation;
• Fixed eyes on One-Handed sword idle pose;
• Fixed Eyetracking logic, so Kalyskah should look up and down correctly while lowering her head during dialogues;
• Fixed an issue that causes characters to blink during cutscenes where we didn't want them to;
• Fixed a minor memory leak on ToysystemController;
• Fixed patrol of enemy NPCs like bandits and animals;
• Fixed leather boots' footstep sound so Kaly no longer sounds as if she's barefoot;
• Fixed the position of the sword on the Two-Handed idle;
• Fixed Michael the wise being barefoot;
• Fixed Kalyskah not being properly set as the active actor on a Toy-System scene, which was causing her to be misplaced when a sex scene would begin in a BDSM device. And also depending on your choice while negotiating with female bandits;
• Fixed issue that was causing information to repeat on books and notes;
• Fixed Farley's duplicated voice at the beginning of his cutscene;
• Fixed NPCs not starting sex scenes when Kaly was in a BDSM device;
• Fixed error that was preventing players from loading saves coming from older versions;
• Fixes a bug in the Toy-System where Kaly would return to the default standing position;

Enhancements

• Removed several things from the game's tick, which should improve the performance;
• Refactor how the heart SFX is handled during blood buff;
• Removed some unused codes from the project;
• Made Alvina's dialogue cinematic, adding more body language to her;
• Added an alternate route to the lower part of the temple, which should allow NPCs to move up and down without needing the lift. Although until we make the NPC schedule system we won't be adding too many characters there;
• Added an icon on the compass for the Dungeon and the Training arena. They disappear when the player is too far, we'll investigate why this is happening later;
• Added more BDSM devices in the playroom;
• Added some post-process effects during the dialogue with Laver;
• Dialogue options that change Kalyskah's tendency will now be labelled;

• Added nav modifiers to prevent NPCs from getting inside the blood bath and also inside the sea area
• Quest "Check on the Legion" will now trigger the next step so players can understand that we're still working on the next bunch of content.
• Added some water to the bottom of the dungeon so it's no longer a black box;

• Redone the whole lights on the whole open world;
• Improved the architecture of the cathedral;

Features

• Trees, roads and camps are now scattered throughout the whole Island, and they can be explored. For now, we didn't add content to these areas other than enemies that are spawned in. This area is between 2 and 3 times bigger than the playable area on the Legacy Demo.

• New sliders to change Kalyskah's muscle intensity in the character customisation;

• Added 4 trivia books to Michael's library;

• Added the longest erotic scene we ever did. You can trigger it by entering the blood bath area. I suggest you save it before the scene starts because there are a lot of choices on it! Also, you might notice that sometimes the character's hands will clip with Kalyskah's skin. that's Because the animations were done using the new rig but because we didn't fully implement it on the engine yet, the animations are not looking 100% exactly how they should. But we'll be fixing it next month.

Known issues:

• The choices on the massage with the female character aren't changing as many Tendency statuses as the ones with the male. This will be reviewed in the next patch.
• When you close the game, it sends a crash message. This also happens when you leave the open world while loading another save or returning to the main menu. We are investigating what's causing the issue.
• There might be some stuttering while loading sublevels of the dungeon. But that's because we are in the process of reworking how we did the world composition. This will be reduced as move forward with this task.
