I'm uploading update 0.42.2 right now. It fixes most of the major bugs that have been reported.
Now I've hired a freelance programmer to do a few auxiliary jobs. First he's going to implement Wwise, a professional grade audio engine. After that I can hire a professional sound designer, and the game will finally have sound. Good sound too, I'm not cutting corners.
That will take a while though, if after the next update anyone starts going "Where's the audio? You said you did sound" then they will get a slap.
As for me I'm not 100% sure what I'm doing next, but it will be a bigger update this time. So I'll be going off radar a bit and focusing on work. It might be the new character creation, possibly even the new bigger world map. Then I can have famous foliage modder Vurt make the new biomes.
Here are the changes for the last update:

Highest Rated (70 agree) 10/10
Kenshi is a very ambitious game, it is as of the moment I'm writing this in a very unfinished state, but it's fun to play and it looks like with more love and care, this will be an absolutely great game.
Therefore I'm voting this a 10, I also bought the game to support the (currently) only developer working on it.
Despite the crashes, the content the game has now, made by only a single developer is very impressive in my opinion.
Thumbs up :)

Lowest Rated (8 agree) 4/10
In it's current state, it deserves a one.
But because it's being updated and because its from one dude, it deserves a 4.
When its finally released, hopefully it will be worth a 10.
I don't see why people are just spamming 10 on this, lets be honest. in its current state, it is pretty sh*t. But we can all agree it WILL turn out great. (Don't hate me for the low rate, i'll re-review it with a high score as the game is being made. Or when its finished.)

captain_deathbeard, I get an error when trying to run the game (for the first time). This is what it says exactly:
"There was an error during the MCF install process and it has been stopped.
The tool Visual Studio Redist 2010 x86 failed to install (Bad result) [37.0]"
Sorry if this has all ready been brought up etc. I don't really have enough time to search for and/or sift through forums etc. to learn to fix things (if I can). I'm not very tech-savvy either, so I don't have much motivation when I have time.
If you need more info I'll do what I can to assist.
you need to install visual studio runtimes. its in kenshi/dependencies/vcredist.exe. If it doesnt work, then google "visual studio 2010 x86 runtime" and install it.
I Googled it, and d/led it. I can't install it though, it says my computer has a more recent version. I'll try re-downloading the game & see if that works. I'll post back any results.
Thanks for the response.
Hey captain_deathbeard, I reinstalled Kenshi & attempted to run it again, still doesn't work.
that error seems to be from desura, try running kenshi.exe direct from the folder
Ok so i find something for my problem (Execute in administrator mode).
But the game is cool... I don't know what to do ! I explore but the bandits kill me, and the camera sucks a lot !
(Maybe because i'm on AZERTY and not on QWERTY keyboard...
Please what sould i do ?
use arrow keys instead until i add customisable controls
Thanks for helping , any schedule for the next update yet?
within a week
