AI

  • Added new wench skins and fixed some clipping issues (Springheel)
  • Added new "waif" head and added new hair to some other heads (Springheel)


Animations

  • added some rustling cloth sounds to several animations (Springheel)
  • added improved melee combat animations (Noisycricket)


Entities/Skins/Models

  • New decorative statue skins like copper, brass, alabaster etc. (Tels)
  • New key skins and matching entities (with translated names) where added (Tels):
New key variants
  • Added new three-ringed key model (Mysterious Key) and a geometric key model (Strange Key). (Tels)
New key variants
  • Four variants of ash heap models added (Tels)
  • The pre-made fireplace entities now have ash heaps, and the "arch" variant has two stacks of wood logs (Tels)
  • New scimitar weapon model/entity added (Springheel)
  • Several new models added, including water tower, pumpkins, cloth doll, jack-o-lantern (Springheel)

Sounds

  • Added several new impact sounds (Mortem)
  • Added new weapon and combat sounds (Mortem)


Coding

  • Vine arrows are now working (Grayman)
  • Weapons are now divided into three different categories of damage. Daggers no longer do the same damage as Longswords. (Springheel)


Textures

  • About 90 Mbyte of TGA texture files have been converted to about 25 MByte DDS. This will improve load times and reduce memory consumption (Tels)
  • Some plant and barrel textures have been improved (Serpentine)


Translation

  • Both the menus and the in-game HUD as well as other on-screen messages are translatable into different languages.
  • FMs can have their own, specific translation dictionaries, meaning it is possible to update the translation w/o touching the FM PK4 file itself.
  • The language can be selected in the menu, and is switched immidiately.
  • Some languages are mostly done, other languages are still waiting for translators. If you want to help, please post at this thread.
German HUD The menus in French The menus in German
Note: Due to technical reasons neither Umlauts nor accented characters appear in the menu font yet. This issue will be fixed before the release.
