Patch 1.1.2544 codename "It's gone, MacReady"

A rather mundane maintenance patch this time, but still a patch: New "Apply" button when setting different resolutions in the menu. Unlimited framerate now showing a more user-friendly infinite symbol instead of 0.

A rather mundane maintenance patch this time, but still a patch:

  • New "Apply" button when setting different resolutions in the menu.

  • Unlimited framerate now showing a more user-friendly infinite symbol instead of 0.0 in the menu. That 0.0 was weird. Technically speaking, an infinite framerate is physically impossible, but it still makes more sense.

  • Localized new menu options to other languages, plus some minor tweaks.

  • Better menu behavior when completing the game. You're no longer allowed to save games in a vacuum.

  • Proper handling of saves when completing the gameautosave gets deleted, and launching the game again will start a brand new game, as it should.
  • Fixed regression from previous update: Discharged achievement now working correctly again.

  • Fixed Julia briefly flashing before the cutscene when entering the asylum for the first time. That was creepy.

  • Fixed incorrect volume settings when launching a new game.

  • Pickable pesticide no longer clipping the camera like a cheap 3D film from the 80s.

  • Character reflection in A-Pose removed from window in Corridor 2C. No, that wasn't a story hint either.

  • Adjusted lighting to make a certain puzzle in a certain topmost floor fairer.

  • Adjusted notepad position during certain conversations.

  • Improved the poignant Lenny video in the topmost floor, including extremely realistic reflections that no AI will ever be able to replicate.

  • Fixed a strange door reflection in the final game environment, which thankfully everyone missed and didn't misinterpret as a story hint.

  • Build string: version 1.1.2544 (test with CTRL + V)

All your thorough reports during these first few weeks have been very appreciated! Key outstanding issues the team is focusing on:

  • Verified Steam Deck support.

  • Proper native Linux support. These two tasks are actually tied together.

  • One final pass for localizations (though a lot has been revised already).

And coming attractions:

  • Steam trading cards, wallpapers, and more.

  • Deluxe bundle preorder, with instantly available goodies such as the soundtrack.

Have a terrific weekend!
