Strange New Powers Release Notes (7/2/2013)

[TeoSS69]

On another note, MacTusk's Blue Hounds keep spawning infinitely and keep hanging around during the summer.

Heya, The pengulls don't flicker on my machine, but you gave enough info to find what the likely problem is. The latest hot-fix should fix it. Let me know if it doesn't. - dave

They don't vanish now, but still they sometimes don't attack back when attacked by hounds. They don't wake up when player get close to steal eggs (may be intended?)They could use some behavior tweaks here and there.And you could also make tallbirds full life cycle just like beefalos:D Edited July 5, 2013 by _Q_

No hotfix today?

That bug is still flying around, can't believe it.I think that there should be update dedicated to bug fixes and code cleaning/optimization. Edited July 5, 2013 by _Q_

Completely agree, it should also have a fancy name and a trailer.

hey y'all, I bought my copy at gog.com, and i don't know how to update it. any advice?

[Nes]

How do I update the game? I can't seem to find the update. Please help. I'm new to this.

Special item for a character that's a great idea. But why some characters do not have special items? Can be added, for example, chemical flask Wilson, dumbbell for Wolfgang and a wrench or bottle of oil for WX-78. You can do these things recharged. Chemical flask could generate a rare ingredient once a day; dumbbell temporarily increased the damage to Wolfgang (sports useful in the morning =)), a wrench or bottle of oil would increase the speed of WX-78. Special items is so cute, this is a unique artifact, this is favorite items for each character. I like it! Add more special items, at least the main character - Wilson, please.

Running the updater in the 16 directory creates an updater in a 17 directory. Running the updater in the 17 directory creates an 18 directory. Running THAT updater will update your game.

Woodie looks great but I do see a lot of people saying Werebeaver is OP. I think it should have a change were when you enter Werebeaver form you can stay in it for as long as the Log Meter isn't empty OR until a certain amount of days have passed. Also when you leave Werebeaver form, you can't transform into it again until another certain amount of days have passed (with the exception of a full moon).This will, I feel, stop people from going on too large of rampages as the Werebeaver & give Woodie, as well as Lucy, more time of use.P.s. how many trees in how long need to be cut down to proc the transformation?

[Orima-Kazooie]

I think it's nto trees but twenty five or so chops

With a normal axe you can down one and a half standard (large) trees

With lucy you take more like four to six

On Day 130 I've lost my Abigail. Wendy raided a McTusk camp (without Abbie since her flower was not powered up yet.) Yay, she finally got a tusk! On the way back to base Abbies flower was glowing so Wendy summoned her(she was carrying a sacrificial rabbit.) Somewhere along the path to the base Abbie disappeared or died and the flower is not yet found. :(Please add a map marker for Abigail and make the flower glow with a wide radius or something when Abigail dies so it can be found more easily.Edit: Abbie is found on day 132. Yay!!!!!! Wendy was on out searching for her again and there comes Abigail floating towards Wendy on a path Wendy had already searched. Party time! I guess Abbie was visiting relatives on the other side or something.

Right, so, I kind of want to play this update. When are the blurry graphics issues some of us have getting fixed? I know you guys are aware of it. Forgive me for being impatient. I hear so much talk about this awesome new update, and this problem is making the game unplayable.

[Lumpy Treeguard]

the other characters are like "look at our epic powers!" and wilson is like " screw yall my beard is magnificent"

[MycoLogical]

Found the new character screen!!!

[Xaerin]

Could do with a more obvious audio/visual clue as you get closer to freezing to death. Thought I had another level of frostyness to experience when WX just keeled over

slowly and endlessly losing health is a pretty big clue

[Orima-Kazooie]

yeah but like, there's not even the down arrow you get when your sanity is bad or the armor damage sound effect from burning to death

[jbeetle]

There's 3 different freezing sounds/displays it makes before it begins to take health, right? Counting to three.I admit I've lost health before from freezing when I wasn't paying attention...because I wasn't paying attention.

So I'm new to the forum but not to DS, but with the new update I figured I'd try out Wendy. I noticed a couple bugs. 1. Pengulls rocketing out of the ground like mole-bird hybrids.2. The blurry graphics thing people have mentioned. 3. The flash of red at day phase changes. 4. When clicking examine on a weatherometer Wendy speaks, but there's no caption. 5. Also a massive delay going in and out of the map, my FPS are fine otherwise, just when tabbing in and out of the map it freezes. Other than that, Chester's pathfinding has gone to crap, and Abbie tends to get lost if I use a road at all. Could you make her come find me instead of me having to backtrack to find her?That's it. Great game KLEI! Great update, and great job at making the characters interesting and unique.
