Hello guys!
Hope you all enjoyed the beta version of Vermins of Dune I released last month. Since that, I worked on polishing the already existing content, and my estimates are
Vermins of Dune 1.0.0 will arrive before July (hopefully much sooner)
Balance
One of my focuses now will be to make the faction more balanced. I'll appreciate any help on that, please write down in the comments, how you think the balance can be improved.
Upcoming Changes
Installer
According to your feedback, the installer for some of you couldn't download game files, which prevented a successful game installation. To tackle this problem I added an additional mirror for game data, and the mirror list is now stored on GitHub.
Also we now finally have an installer for the Linux version!
Visuals
Several sprite polishes will also arrive in 1.0.0.
- Smoother Radar Animation for Outpost
- Polish for Palace Sprite
- Loading Screen image will feel slightly less flat
Breaking Change
Custom map folder is now relocated to d2k_smugglers/1.0.0 instead of d2k/{DEV_VERSION}
Other
The update will also include some minor fixes like polished encyclopedia entries.
For those of you that want the freshest news the soonest, this changelog is continuously updated. Please note as this changelog is updated more frequently it might contain some nonfinal statements.
Oh this is a nice surpise
