Hey everyone!

Our patch for the 'No Clean' issue on older hardware has now been added to the live version! We'd like to thank everyone for getting so many reports to us here on steam and with the in-game tool. It has really helped us to resolve the issue as fast as possible.

On top of that we have fixed another problem that effected some users saves. Plus, have some tweaks to help those players with older hardware get better performance.

To those that are currently on the test branch, you will want to go into your settings and remove that. (Right click on PowerWash Simulator in your Library > Properties > Betas > Select none - you may need to restart steam if the game doesn't update).

Full notes below.

• Added “Legacy” wash system to allow players with older hardware/drivers to clean. This setting should be automatically changed based upon your PC, but if you are still unable to clean anything, please open Options > Graphics and change Wash System from Standard to Legacy.

• Fix for save data being corrupted due to a crash or some other unexpected shutdown of the application (e.g. power loss) during a save operation. Players with corrupted save files will need to clear their save data in the Options menu and start again.

In some cases, power loss or unexpected system shutdown shortly after the game saved could cause save files to become corrupt. The game writes save files to a temporary location and then copies them over the old files. This file copy operation sometimes left the save file in the Windows file cache without writing the changes to disk, so that if Windows shut down unexpectedly before the cache was flushed, the file contents would be lost.

Why did we originally use the windows file cache?

it's just a part of how Windows works - everything goes through it for performance reasons. same reason you have to "safely eject" stuff in theory!

how did we fix it?

We now flush the cache for our save file after every save, which trades a little bit of performance for reliability

• Added more steps on the Render Scale and the ability to switch off the “Wetness Effect” to help players boost their performance when running on older/lower spec hardware.

Thanks again for helping us track these issues down as quickly as possible and we hope everyone has a great time in game!

Networks are certainly an important part of today’s world.For example, our #BestCommunityEver is an inseparable aspect of our socialnetwork. In the same manner, road networks are a fundamental piece oftraffic infrastructure. The newest location that will be arriving inAmerican Truck Simulator is going to be no exception. Today we are going toshed some light on the road layouts and landmarks in the upcoming Wyoming DLC!



Legend says that a certain trucker (we’re all feeling proud here right?) decided one day to take a picture while driving on Interstate 80, as he was approaching an area near Fort Bridger known as "The Three Sisters". The image made it seem as if the road over the crest was never-ending and ever since then, people commonly referred to this area as the "Highway to Heaven". Just like it is with the real-life location, we cannot promise you a trip to paradise, but maybe if you try hard enough, you may just follow in the footsteps of the famous trucker and recreate something similar. Just be careful, as some others tend to call this area "Highway to Hell" instead. As if the Devils Tower wasn’t enough.



Time to get back to earth now and mention numerous new road signs which will include speed limit signs, freeway and highway signs, tourist signs, and dynamic message gantries! Speaking of road gantries there’s also going to be a very interesting new visual - gantries with traffic lights at crossroads. These are not exactly a common occurrence, that is why you should always be prepared to take a picture just so you can take it with you "spiritually" wherever you go.


But that’s not all, however, as you will also be able to cross several colorful bridges, and if open space is not for you, be sure not to miss the I-80’s Twin Tunnel near Rock Springs.


All this and more is coming in Wyoming DLC and whether you want to try to ascend to the heavens (just do not get your hopes "up" - pun intended) or add new visual features to your collection of pictures, do not forget to add Wyoming to your Steam Wishlist!

To opt into this beta on Steam, join the "preview" branch available in the Beta drop-down list. Admins will need to use the following SteamCMD flag:

• app_update 232130 -beta preview

To opt into this beta on EGS, the Beta will be accessible within KF2 owners’ game libraries as a separate install called “Killing Floor 2 Beta”. Users may need to restart their EGS launcher for the Beta to populate and be accessible to install. Progress for stats and inventory is shared between both versions on EGS so for users switching between Beta and Live be sure to sync your game data to use the latest timestamp to prevent any lost progress from participating in the Beta. The Beta on EGS also includes its own dedicated server within the install for your own personal hosting needs for this version.

On top of that, there are also 2 alternative scenarios that you may experience that will imply an additional challenge level: Arachnophobia and Scavenger weekly modes. But there is some good news! At least you will be able to use the new fancy tools from Horzine Research Group, the HRG Bastion and HRG Blast Brawlers, that were being developed in this station.

Designer Notes :
We have integrated the skip trader vote system in the Versus game mode, that will make the process of skipping the trader easier and clearer for players. Only the Survivor players will vote.

We were aware of the stun reliability problems of the Crossbow and Compound Bow headshots against Scrakes, and the frustration that it may cause. We have worked on improving the system and now the headshots stun power should be applied correctly to the Scrakes, and stun them with more consistency.

The Compound bow was not in a bad spot but we think that one of their fire modes, the cryo arrow, was not performing as good as the other one, the sharp arrow. So we boosted the explosion of the cryo arrow to allow a higher damage capacity and more effective freeze effect against groups of Zeds. Finally, we increased the ammo capacity of the weapon to encourage the use of more cryo arrows to players that are usually conservative with ammo, regarding that this fire mode does not leave pickup as the sharp arrows.

We made some adjustments on the Hemogoblin to improve its viability as a medic weapon. Apart from the bleeding mechanic, the semi-automatic fire mode was a bit unbalanced, so we increased the damage of the primary fire, and speeded up the reload time. We also increased the healing of each dart to make it slightly more impactful, in a midpoint between the HMTech-401 and the HRG Incision.

We implemented several nerfs to the Berserker and Field Medic perks, mostly related to their surviving capacities, as we had a lot of community reports about both perks overperforming in that aspect, even more if their capacities were combined. We love to see the different synergies between perks and strategies that our community creates, but we would like to have every perk in a similar balance point, and each of the 10 perks to be equally relevant in the game.

Finally, we made some adjustments on Demolitionist’s Extra Rounds and Support’s High Capacity Magazines, to improve their viability, as they were underperforming compared to their counterpart skill and were less prefered by most players.


Bug Fixes
Also mentioned in the 2020 Killing Floor 2 ‘State of the Game’ our goal is to bring to the community a continued stream of community-reported bug fixes for each update throughout the year. Please continue to report any bugs you discover by visiting our official forums at: https://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/forum/killing-floor-2 and posting in the ‘PC’ or ‘Console’ sections.

Top Community Issues:

• Fixed an issue where the only weapon pickups available was the varmint rifle when there were 4 or fewer spawns on a map.
  
• Fixed an issue where escort drones on any map could become unrepairable which forced an exit of the map to continue play.

• Fixed an issue where the weekly challenge UI would be out of sync from the current weekly cycle.
  

Map:

• Fixed an issue where the Trader Path would not path across the main street on Dystopia.

Localization:

• Altered the text string for the HRG Incendiary Rifle in the trader pod in Russian to allow it to fit within the UI.

As always, thank you for your continued support!

- add hard mode. Long hold notes will be narrower and more fluctuate.
- terrain will react to player's input
- adjust visual effect
- adjust sound effect for note
- adjust UI

Mostly was just bug hunting today, and found some of the problems I was looking for. Along the way I started playing with some things to speed up testing and thankfully came up with some useful new options.

Most of all, the player camera can now be adjusted in two different new ways. The "targeting mode," which is enabled via the tilde key (usually above tab) by default, will now follow the same zoom as the normal chase camera, so you can move it forward and backward to your preference. You can now also adjust the cameras height by holding the left shift key while scrolling the mouse-wheel. I actually find it quite a bit easier to look at in targeting mode with the camera moved up a little bit. These settings will also be saved between sessions so if you were last playing in first person for example, the game will reload in first person.

I also added shift+interact as a sort of quick-loot for monster drops. It will also print out what, if anything, you looted on the right of the screen color coded for rarity.

There were also a number of weird duplication and/or item amounts going negative reports over the past little while here. I believe I've found what was causing them and fixed it. There were also some "out of bounds" errors I've fixed, and a lack of limestone and magical essence that I'm still looking into.

v 0.7.5.6 2021.06.02
- Added the ability to zoom the camera in and out when in targeting mode
- Added the ability to raise and lower the came with shift+mouse wheel
- Added shift+interact to auto-loot monsters
- Camera state and position in regards to player are now saved
- Changed 3 large cacti to trees for rare spawns
- Removal of items changed from displaying on the right as red to using the color rarity of the item
- Fixed a problem with the possible animal lists generated per biome used to spawn rare animal
- Fixed saturation and post-exposure in-game settings not working properly
- Fixed an inventory error causing items to become stacks or negative numbers in some instances
- Fixed a "pickup" option showing for monoliths on the radial menu
