Wild Life [Patreon Build 16.12.2022]

Patreon Build 16.12.2022:

It is time! We are very excited to announce that the new $25 build is almost ready to be released. Since this is the first version using the new Unreal Engine 5.1 there are still plenty of issues in pretty much all areas of the game. Lighting will be different, performance will probably be worse in many cases and there may be several other random things not working or even crashing so we advise to keep the last version you have around. If you encounter any problem please don’t hesitate to contact us on Discord or via email. This is all still very much work in progress and it may require a few more releases until we can consider the move complete.

We recommend that you update your OS and graphics drivers as we use the latest SDK’s and API’s with this new version.

Attention!: The launcher has been updated, if you are using the launcher we recommend you to download the new version here (it will be provided in the build release post and on our discord too).

And now for the changes and additions see the changelog below:

As the Fisher Village with its demo quest line was getting in the way of the game’s development we decided to remove it. We stripped the Old Wild Life level of all assets as well, as there were many legacy assets that bloated the project.

If you have sandbox scenes that were made in the Fisher Village level, you can still open them by moving the respective files into a different level folder (e.g. from “%localappdata%/WildLifeC/Saved/SandboxSaveGames/MySaves/FisherVillage/” to “%localappdata%/WildLifeC/Saved/SandboxSaveGames/MySaves/Showroom/”).

Sandbox scenes that were made in the Old Wild Life level might need adjustments.

• Upgraded Unreal Engine to version 5.1
• Added 100 new sandbox sex animations, see the full list here

• Added new character: Karu, a councilman of the Sky Village
• Added new character: Shiva, a huntress from the Warrior Village
• Added setting for Global Illumination to Video settings (defaults to Lumen, which can be very expensive, so you might want to turn it off)
