Flying Tigers: Shadows Over China changes
Today's Steam update, which we've aptly named “EVENT HORIZON” as we're approaching international release, adds more Kipling-style painted imagery that finalizes the menus (GUI and UX), the full soundtrack DLC (apologies to DLC customers, we forgot to include it in the earlier updates!) and fixes several minor bugs, some of which are listed below;
AI: Took care of an issue that caused respawning enemy fighters (primarily in the dogfight mode) to get stuck in geometry and perform loops endlessly.
- TrackIRFixed a detection issue in the input code.
- GUI/UXFinalized layout and presentation, implemented full batch of hand-painted illustrations in an effort to capture the mood, look and feel of aerial warfare in 1940s South-East Asia theatre of World War II, updated loading-screens for all weathers, implemented final multiplayer map panel menu graphics.
- GUI/UXFixed a font size rendering issue that sometimes caused text to overflow in the SETTINGS/CONTROLS screens.
- AudioAdjusted "dynamic audio volume" logic for thick air-battles to make sure neither machine gun fire nor engine sounds would become too dominant or cause other SFX to drown.
Friendly reminder; as you'll know from the last update, we've teamed up with Imperial North Music Agency and Operation Supply Drop for the EP release of Norman Wayne's country-rock song "THESE GUNS" (played during the game's credits roll), so feel free to check it out via Apple Music and Spotify links below.
