For more information around the ranged skill, check out our blog post “Introducing the Ranged Skill!”.
Creative Mode is now available!
You will need to create a new “Creative Mode” character to access worlds that are Creative Mode enabled.
For those that just want a relaxing, chill and build experience. Check out our blog “Introducing Creative Mode!” with Mod Deluxe for more details.
Custom World Settings
You will need to create a new “Custom World” character to access worlds that are using Custom World settings.
When creating a Custom World, click on Advanced in the upper left to access the World Settings.
Over 40 settings are exposed, from damage, thirst, hunger, to XP rates and processing.
Controller Support (Alpha State)
As mentioned in our blog post last month, “The Road to Fellhollow: A Check-In form our Product Director” with Mod bitf0x, controller support is being updated however we believe it still needs polish.
Players will be able to lock onto enemies, navigate through menus, and we’ve refreshed / reoptimized input bindings.
We’ll be keeping you updated on when we’ll be releasing the next round of polish to make these feel good on the sticks.
Functional Keyboard Rebinding implemented
New multiplayer protections have been added:
Gravestone Protection: A new option in gameplay settings so that other players will not be able to loot your gravestone.
Build Protection Totem: We have added totems with a sphere around them that will prevent other players from building within that area. You will have 8 to place.
Chest Privacy: Chests can now be locked by the owner. Just open the chest and check the box labeled Private.
Updated Character and World List UI
As part of adding Custom Worlds and Creative mode, new icons have been added on character selection and the world selection screens to denote the type of world.
Character Slots increased from 4 to 8.
Antipoison potions have been updated:
Antipoison now uses Marentill rather than Haarlander
Both Antipoison Potions and Fungal Fortitude grant Poison resistance, and this resistance stacks together
Consuming the Antipoison pot clears/cures any poison buildup, as it did before.
Any level of poison resistance (Fungal Fortitude OR Antipoison) grants you immunity to the ambient swamp gas in the toxic swamp, allowing you to explore it freely.
Additional Fixes
Status effects will now persist correctly on reloading
Fixes to places where players or AI could get out of bounds
Floating Rune Essence will be appropriately damaged by secondary staff attacks
Clock widget will now display night correctly for clients

Known Issues

Custom World Setting values displayed are not always fully accurate
We are tracking the specific settings that are acting up and will hot fix them in the coming weeks.

A restart may be needed immediately on launch, particularly with AMD GPUs
