Hello Everybody, Animallica Alpha 4.6 is here!

Patch Notes:

• Creative Mode was added. The new game mode strips away the survival aspects of Animallica and allows players to easily create large scenes with the help of free and infinite placeble items. In Creative mode, players have no health, stamina, thirst or hunger bar to hamper their building and travel between maps is disabled. All the items can be obtained from the menu we call CODEX;
• Four new legendary animals were added. They were named after active members of our comunity;
• Several maps were slightly updated;
• Several more bounty hunter treasure chests were added;
• Added the Shift+Click transfer command for the breeding center;
• BUGFiX: The arrow set by the player wasn't properly kept in the save file, causing it to reset to the default one;
• BUGFiX: HP decrease when eating rotten food was missing;
• BUGFiX: Transferring items with Shift+Click from Quick Panel to inventory when the inventory was full caused the items to vanish;
• BUGFiX: The code for dropping the items that were in a container that was destroyed didn't work;

Patch Notes v4.6a:

-> BUGFiX: Fixed arrow issues (the arrow was reset to the default one, aka not saving properly); -> BUGFiX: AutoSave was wrongly set on 30 seconds; -> BUGFiX: Cream persian kitten was unselectable; -> BUGFiX: Several icons had problems displaying correctly; -> Addition: A dropdown menu was added to set the autosave interval. Out recommendation is to set autosave on disabled then re-enable it right away and set the time that suits your needs. Also, the autosave will skip that if you have the inventory opened or a container. Keep in mind that autosave is still experimental and it will freeze your game briefly when is reaching the autosave interval.

small fixes for settlements and newly added buildings

EXPERIMENTAL: Potential fix for the people who cannot save the game. Added "ALT SAVE PATH" toggle in the Main Menu -> Options -> Game. When "Yes" is selected the game will save the files in "My Documents \ My Games \ Animallica \ SaveData" instead of the classic location. By default this setting comes disabled. Activate this only if you cannot save the game at all, and/or the game crashes all the time when you travel between scenes.

Hotfix v2.5B:

7 new potted plants were added to the crafting menu;

increased the spawn for some of the new vegetable plants;

Fixed couple of bugs with the new gardening beds;

Fix some bugs with the settlements;

Adjusted snapping mechanics;

Other minor bugfixes; A new flat, empty island will arrive in a hotfix in a couple of days, helping you to spread out if your base is getting too crowded or laggy.

Since is probably the most impressive and beautiful settlement ever build in First-person game, we thought it would be a good idea to show it here too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX1aUOXvMzs Please try to ignore de low FPS, the amount of animals and vegetation he placed is really huge. There are over 30.000 items hand placed by the player in an enviroment already pretty heavy on performance. Big thanks to pfoster7 aka Ogre for taking the time to build it and catching the exact spirit of the game and WilD JeSTeR for showcasing it! In the near future we are planning to hold monthly design contests with nice prizes. Players could send us their creations (we can choose a theme each month), then make a small showcase like this with all the entries and viewers will vote for the winner.

The Animallica Official Soundtrack was created in order to support the talented composer that created it, Matthew Harper. All the tracks combined offer 101+ minutes of audition, in mp3 format, 320 kbps, 253 MB total size. We will constantly update the soundtrack, with every new biome that we add in the game. Thank you for your support!
