0.21 LTV Release Thread

Available for: Public Release! Download here

Note for Steam players: 

-This version is available (and will remain) on the Beta Branch of the Steam game (check properties). When 0.24 is on closed beta, will go to Default branch.

Important Known bug:

You can't opt out from unity analytics or the game won't start. (if you opt out after the game start, next time you try to start the game it won't start).
 You can fix it by deleting the game playerprefs variables, that is done like this:
deleting contents on windows registry with regdit in this adress: \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\SeventhVixen\BattleforLuvia.
Fixed for 0.24.

0.21.c changes

-Fixed Meanwhiles code to avoid all related bugs.

-Improved Armies Menu

-Improved Map Menu (Shows merchants, resource converters, quest givers, etc)

-New Settings Options: Show Stats & Inv & Relations during conversations. You'll be able to check your stats, quests, paths, inventory, resources, armies, documents, Relation levels and Romance trackers on those difficults choices you make. (On by default). Only caveat for now is that inventory don't show text. But you can see current Treasury and Food provisions.

-Put a failsafe so people don't bug themselves having Scrolling Text Sounds On but Scrolling Text Off.

-3 renders fixed.

Known Bugs:
-Some sprites (Lia and Emilia) may dissapear on Gypsy Camp after Minerva Day Scene. Doesn't affect gameplay.

0.21.b changes:

+More little bugs fixed

-Some QoL changes on Kaelkirk (Rest outside Asheligh cabin, Rest at Castle during day, auto handle all relics on conversation)

-Improvements on Save game naming

-Incompatible video encoding with new Unity version fixed (for any instance I knew of, if you find stuttering videos, tell me)

-More fixes from the engine change to working condition (everything?)

-All menus on working should be on working order

-Added more Save game preview info.

+40 tweaked old renders

0.21.a changes:

• 0.21 LTV (Long Testing Version) Changelog:

• Not a content update! I keep working on 0.25.

  • Not Compatible with previous saves!

  •  Big Performance Improvements:
    -Overall. Less menu glitches, better general performance.
    -Incorporation of Intro, Prologue, Leffrin and Penketh to the Addressable system, meaning next Steam versions downloads will have less weight, and with corresponding VRAM savings. None of those scenes consume more than 1gb of VRAM. Hartlepool is still a bit of an VRAM eater.

  • Bug fixes:

    Loads, and loads, of little bug fixes, plus:

  • In 0.19 a little engine update introduced a really bad bug about humor changes, so real value changes didn't were what were supposed to be. That's why Baralis for example gave problems. That bug basically rendered some story progression hard or impossible to get.

• -Levies Upkeep dialogue calculations fixed.

• -Travel map filters work again

• -Mina prologue anims fixed

• Location Headers left on screen if travelling out too fast

  
                   - Story Fixes:

• Fixed Robin progression on all paths and options (there were some specific blocks on very specific paths and choices). Also some little fixes in all Penketh paths.
  - Robin table day scene getting broken if tried to start with less than 300 lewdness.

• Mina last lewd step available again.

                        Changes & Improvements:

• Loading game Preview info: It will now show Patrik's stats and Baronnies Affinity when hovering over a saved game, as well as some Save defining choices made (like penketh or hartlepool paths taken)

• Relations Menu: Now there is a numeric value to know exactly character's humor. Added some missing characters

• Font Switch: You can now choose between the classic BFL font or an Easy Read Font (Only on cutscene settings menu. It has its caveats in order to activate it, if interested, read the instructions in game.

• Hidden Text chaged:-When Hiding text (H), it will automatically unhide when a new dialogue appears. I've not put an option to cancel this, 'cause the Hide text feature only provokes false bug reports if leave it as before.

• Many conversations recoded to improve future coding. (Testing warning! check everything)

• Speed modes blocked on map.

                       Other stuff:

-Remastered a few prologue renders + Improved/fixed around 100 renders on Katerna, Liliana, and Penketh.

-Added 8 new Steam Achivements

-More than 150 typos corrected

PS: Now that I'll just have to wait for bug reports, I'll get back to 0.25 full speed, previews, etc :P
