Public Preview 1.4.2 Now Available

Hey everyone! We're very excited to announce we're in the final stretch for releasing a macOS version to the world with just a few more fixes to go, so we're happy to be updating the public preview build to 1.4.2. We have quite a few fixes and updates in this release, and not just for the Mac! This release also includes brand new community made translations for previously unsupported languages: Portuguese and Dutch, along with many fixes and changes to others to make the Obduction experience the best it can be for everyone around the world! Words of Warning There's a few issues with AMD graphics drivers under macOS that are beyond our control. These issues include random crashing on Macs with AMD graphics cards. As these issues require coordinated fixes from both Apple and AMD, we are unable to fix them in-house. Thanks for your understanding and patience with this, we can assure you all we're working as hard as possible on our end. Installing Apple’s latest macOS updates (Including public betas if available) should reduce crashing. Any remaining crashes will be addressed in future updates from Apple.
