[Public + Patreon Release] Version 0.14 and 0.15!

Hello everyone, Corintio here!

This was one of the patches that gave us the most amount of work so far... and on the next one, we'll have a similar situation to rebuild Milhaven. But this is a good thing, if something is giving us a lot of work it means that it contains a lot of improvement!

On the Patreon version, we redid the whole way Kalyskah's movement and animations works, added a new stealth system and more. And with that, we are releasing the previous patron build to the public, with the weather system, one of the branches of delivering the Heirloom Lost quest and more improvements that you can check the Changelog here!

Kalyskah version 0.15 (Vampire and Royal Blood tier)

Fixes

• Fixed Kalyskah strange rotation when she was swimming with a weapon in hand and the player pressed space-bar
• Fixed lipsync pose staying after character finished a sentence.
• NPCs should no longer rotate after entering a working station
• Fixed deer walking animation speed
• Several optimizations on widgets
• Crosshair will be always hidden when you enter a dialogue.
• Merishya will no longer fight Gremnoch before Kalyskah jumps down to the boss area.
• Removed undead from the cells next to Merishya because they were causing some players to glitch.

Enhancements

• Improved shoulder rotation on many character animations.
• Changes on the way Kalyskah holds some weapons
• Slightly different evasion animations
• Female and Male characters will have different postures while walking, but the animations need improvement.
• Improved telekinesis impulse, which combined with the fact that NPCs now take fall damage, can create some really fun situations!
• Slightly improved the logic to make NPCs open doors, which should prevent them from opening doors that they are not looking at. It needs more test because I imagine that this might increase a bit off the incidence where they’ll be staring to a closed door, but we’ll improve it soon.
• NPCs that didn’t have an working station and that were staying idle in down for an hour, will now roam around.
• Barrels should cause damage to enemies when you push them towards them.
• More accurate sunlight damage check: Now that we introduced a crouching system, we are checking if Kalyskah is under a shade considering her upper and lower half, before this pull, it was checking her body as a whole. This creates situations where Kalyskah will have to crouch in order to avoid the Sunlight.
• Sucking blood will no longer be interrupted by sunlight damage.
• The blood hounds will be destroyed after you defeat the boss at the dungeon

Features

• Rebuild the locomotion system of characters! Kalyskah can now climb surfaces, crouch and her feet will no longer float on uneven surfaces!
• The C button will no longer open the character equipment menu, it will make Kalyskah crouch and enter the stealth mode! Use L or I to level up.
• Now Kalyskah will always cover her face if taking sunlight damage, unless she's in combat.
• NPCs will flee from Kalyskah when attacked... But some will also fight back! This is the first step towards adding a crime\punishment system.
• New stealth system, check this post for more: https://www.patreon.com/posts/47656460
• Kalyskah's hair will go down when she wears a hat, but for now it does not work when you load a save. Just unequip and reequip the hat and it will work again.
• Added physics to every hair of the game that should have!
• NPCs will now be grouped into teams, check this post for more information: https://www.patreon.com/posts/news-about-next-48074972
• Overhaul of the main menu: As you can see on the video above, all the text has been improved and you will now be able to move Kalyskah using your mouse!

Known Issues:

• I just realised that maybe the female NPCs will have vampire fangs! Let me know if you see it. If they are there, we’ll fix it on the next version.
• The Controls on the main menu are not right, but you can see the right controls written at the bottom left of your screen once you start the game.
