New Fallow Deer Furs
One rare and two very rare new fur variations have been added to all Fallow Deer populations on both male and female: Acromelanistic, Erythristic, and Leucistic.
The new furs will have a chance to appear on any Fallow Deer both existing and new. This means with the patch, existing Fallow Deer on your map may change fur types according to the new distribution of furs.
New Moose Antlers
11 new antlers of various shapes and sizes are now available through the TruRacs system for Moose. Additionally, all existing antlers have been remastered.
New Great One: Roe Deer
If you are lucky, you may now find a Fabled Roe Deer on Hirs chefelden, Cuatro Colinas, or Tòrr nan Sithean. The new Great One has 6 possible fur variants: Kindledawn, Wildfire, Ghostveil, Moonmarked, Mistbound, and Rustveil.
On top of the 6 furs, there are also hundreds of possible TruRac combinations, making whichever Great One variant you come across truly feel unique.
Improvements
Performance
Reserves with large amounts of water have had optimizations to water and physics interactions to improve performance.
Bug Fixes
Animals
Certain hunters were missing their whimsy modifier and were thus completely unable to see the completely fictional mythical Haggis creature on Scotland. We’ve evened out the playing field by handing out whimsy to those who lacked it.
Did surgery on all Badgers to remove organs that weren’t supposed to be there. Kinda like our appendix, they weren’t doing anything useful.
Reduced the probability of getting Uncommon Dark Brown and Light Brown plumages for Wild Turkey.
Equipment
Fixed an issue where you could get stuck by jumping under a Hanging Carcass Feeder, making you the next bait.
We made it so that you can’t place items too close to each other to prevent a bug where item icons could overlap and make it difficult to place or interact.
Gameplay
Last update, we fixed a bug where harvesting an animal on top of a Game Feeder would open both menus. This change had an unintended consequence that you would always have to look at a very specific part of the animal to harvest it. We have reverted the change, but also brought back the overlapping menu bug for now.
Missions
On Silver Ridge Peaks, the UI on the Out of Her Comfort Zone mission will show a human icon rather than an imposter Snow Leopard.
Multiplayer
An issue that could cause animals to spawn too close to the session host has been resolved.
System
Fixed a crash that could happen if you
