[BETA] Game Update 1.0.6 / Beta / Steam cards

Rainteksteam_community_announcements

2293d ago

Hello everyone, as you may know, we have a severe issue with save&load system and loading times. We were unable to localize the problem and we are tracking it for 4 days. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33963706/9887753df0f137e4372affddff040f4e8c2739a1.jpg Unfortunately, update 1.0.5 didn't solve anything and caused more issues as players reported. That is why we decided to launch a parallel branch called "BETA". You will be able to choose its in-game properties tab. Below you will find more information.

BETA

Public BETA branch will give us more detailed feedback about your problems. This game version is loaded with debugging code so we should (if you will send us) knew more about what is going on - when you occur any problems.

Crew: fixed problem with unused crab pots,
Fixed issue with missing (in a storm) pots,
Manual: updated layout and removed duplicated chapters,
minor localization fixes,

1.0.5

Fixed issue with disappearing crab pot (when on the winch hook),
Tutorial: fixed problem with the crane,
Crew: fixed issue with crab pots on the second level of the cargo area,

Skills/Crew: higher sorting boost,
Settings: default camera delay reduce,
fixes to game stability,
raised starting money to 50K.

HOW TO JOIN BETA

Right-click on game name > properties. Switch to "BETAS" tab and choose "beta" from the dropdown list. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33963706/d72704f9daaeb5f7c828ad7cd86454411f562f71.png

HOW TO LOCALIZE LOGS

To help us find bugs and solve problems we need to have debugging/users logs generated by the game when it occurs any problems. We can't collect them automatically - that is why you have to send them to us by yourself. It is really - really important for us. By sending them to us you are giving us the necessary information to fix the game. You can do it in two ways:

Download our simple script (100% safe) - it will open logs directory: https://deadliestcatchgame.com/tools/

Search files by yourself C:/Users/%username%/AppData/LocalLow/Moonlit/DeadliestCatch Then you have to send these logs to us: [email protected]

STEAM CARDS, ICONS & BADGES

We also have just released a set of cards, icons, background and badge. You should receive them already if you have played the game if you didn't - you have to play the game a bit more. Regards, Rafał - COO in Ultimate Games S.A.
