Ooooooh things are looking even prettier on the island. One of the main visual changes has been our first past on terrain grass and foliage across the whole island. Grass, wildflowers, bushes, cliffside vegetation, there is a little bit of something nearly everywhere now. Super optimised shaders have allowed us to be pretty free spirited with it and as time goes on we can adjust density to make sure these things stay unobtrusive.

We have continued our set dressing of the main areas, this time the rooftops in the village look alot more lived in as well as scaffolding around the crumbling houses.




So here is the full list of what’s new and changed in Elegos.

• Language modding has been expanded to a more well formed object that supports UI strings (as before), more metadata and dialogue in the future
  
• Wiki updated with a more organised materials page, more images and new languages object
  
• Added some more logging lines for when JSON can’t be correctly deserialized

• Updated the audio mixer to have a less jarring duck of the non-environmental sounds when dialogue plays
  
• Added new creak sounds to Wooden Bridges

• Added Danger Sign prop near Garden cliff edge
  
• Moved statue pieces around on boat to allow for better player freedom of movement
  
• Realigned top of pier steps to fit new terrain better
  
• Crouching section added back in situ to Smuggler's Route Overhang
  
• Various assets missing colliders have now been updated.
  
• New bush variations added and scattered
  
• Main Village Rooftops set dressing
  
• Dilapidated houses set dressing
  
• Terrain details and cliff foliage first pass

• Terrain painted around Smuggler's Route Overhang and Tunnel to help blend better.
  
• Smuggler's Route Tunnel repainted with new Vertex Blend Shader

• Generated LODs and replaced old floor pieces on Smuggler's Route Overhang section
  
• Generated LODs and created new colliders for Wooden Rope Bridge assets

EDIT: Known Bug that we are working to fix - Gilded Yumi can roll Pierce and Super Pierce affixes even though it now has baseline Super Pierce.

Hi everyone,

Valor is nearing full release, and as mentioned in our Early Access documentation, that means the price will be increasing slightly.

On August 12th, 2022, the price will be increasing from $4.99 to $7.99 (or your regional equivalent). This will be the final, full release price. Before August 12th, you will still be able to purchase the game for the discounted Early Access price.

Obviously, people who already own the game, will not be affected by this.

Two-handed weapons are now live!



Along with that the achievements list has grown and a lot of the not yet "plugged in" achievements have been finished and should be working as intended.



I've also added 15 new weapons (such as the katana above) and 2 new shields, most of which are purchasable from town crafters. Some of the may still need a little tweaking as to how they're held, and I will continue looking into things like that, and appreciate all feedback reports, not matter how small they may seem.

Condensed live patch notes:
v 0.8.1.16 2022.07.26
- Plugged in most of the remaining achievements
- Added a customizable key binding for opening the player list
- Revamped potion calculations to work better with new stats systems

- Reduced maximum level difference penalty for potions and enchants from 0% to 20%
- Added 15 weapons and 2 shields

Starship Simulator is officially enlisted to take part in the October '22 Steam Next Fest. That's an alarmingly short 70 days from today, and in that time I've got a tremendous amount of work to do. Starting from today I'm going to begin counting down the days, documenting all the progress as I go!

T-69 Days
Time for our first update on the Next Fest countdown!

Right now I'm working hard on polishing all of the various exoplanet flavours, which need a bit of an update and refresh following the move to UE5. These are also the last thing I need to do before I can release the next development build, so I'm trying to work through them as quickly as possible.

I've started with the gas giants, and the new system has been largely homogenised into a single function that is capable of making any type of gaseous planet. So all I need to do now is tell it what type of gas planet we need and it will generate its surface accordingly. I've also designed it to be easily extendable, so if we need to add any additional types of gas planet in the future it will be quite straightforward. Scope for some rare exotic ones, etc.

I've been spamming these all over Discord, but for those who haven't joined our server yet (why not!?)
(https://discord.gg/eDSQvpgdUX).
Here's what gas planets now look like:

Class I


Class II


Class III


Class IV


Class V


Ice Giant


Next up I'll be working on Earthlike worlds and various silicate planets ːsteamhappyː

Hi Friends! I am glad to announce that the time has come for the Open Beta Test, everyone can take part in this. To do this, you will have to do a number of actions for the comfortable operation of the Test.

1) Switch the game to Beta Test mode in the game settings as shown in the picture above.
2) The game should be launched on Steam, not through the Steam VR panel. Because you will have to select the second option "Beta Test Custom Map"
3) Now all saves will be stored in the Folder "\Steam\steamapps\common\CYBRID\CYBRID\ Save\SaveGame"
4) All settings will be reset as the folder will change its location.
(This is for future convenience)
Note: This is why the game is released in Early Access, because things like this can happen.
To keep all your previous settings. Copy the folder "Save" from the folder "C:\Users\"Your PC User Name"\AppData\Local\CYBRID" to the folder with the game in Steam, "\Steam\steamapps\common\CYBRID\CYBRID" later save and custom maps will be stored exactly in the "SaveGame" folder, which is located in the "Save" folder where the game is located.

About custom levels.

1) Music tracks only fit ".ogg" format
2) Music must be uploaded to the "\Steam\steamapps\common\CYBRID\CYBRID\ Save\SaveGame" folder. The saved level will also be stored there. It is enough to start the game once for this folder to appear.
3) The file name must not contain "Space", "unknown symbols", "-" or "_"
4) Do not create folders with tracks inside the "SaveGame" folder, the game will not see them and will not create a save or load it, copy the files directly to the "SaveGame" folder
5) Don't delete other ".sav" files if they don't match your music. These are the system files for the game.
6) In the editor in the upper left corner there is a button "?" it will help you with controls and hotkeys
7) To quickly switch to the Level Editor, just disconnect the helmet from the PC and when you start the game, a button will appear to go to the Level Editor


New features!

-Added a new setting for Third Person Camera. Now you can move it with your right hand, and then adjust it with the buttons in the menu for more precise settings. You can move the Game Camera to where your real camera is located.

New scoring, now all hits and shots are scored when they hit the rhythm with the music. Previously, Pistol was not tied to rhythm.

For all questions and errors, write to Discord: https://discord.com/invite/3HPfxg2YAD

Now you can create your own Cyber future with your favorite music!
