Prolific Pocketmonster v8 9.26.2016 (26 September 2016)

- Today’s patch adds 125+ new weapon, armor, and shield upgrades and improvements to inspecting and activating upgrades. They’ll be some fixing and polishing of the upgrades as we go and a few more added before launch - let us know what you think!

Gear

- Heavy Weapon attacks now destroy a portion of enemy armor with each hit vs. just piercing it. This allows Heavy Weapons to provide better support if most of the team is dealing physical damage or the enemy has high Armor and Resistances to overcome.
- By popular demand, equipped gear can now be unequipped without needing a replacement item. This should make swapping items between characters more convenient. Default gear will be equipped in place of the unequipped item. Default gear has no value, cannot be enhanced, and is destroyed when replaced with an actual item.
- Also by popular demand, items with upgrades can now be inspected using Shift-click to display the details of their upgrades without visiting the upgrade station.

Upgrades

- All generated weapons now deal Physical damage by default. Uncommon, Rare, Epic and Legendary weapons have gained upgrades that convert the damage to an elemental type and further modify the weapon based on rarity.
- Added 32 class upgrades to weapons that activate special buffs in combat when wielded by the correct class. Upgrades come in Uncommon, Rare, Epic and Legendary flavors.
- After a lengthy legal battle, Siyama has secured the patents to their Corrosive, Burning, Chilling and Thundering weapon upgrades. These upgrades will only appear on authorized Siyama weaponry in the future.
- Items generated prior to today’s patch may have inconsistent or odd combinations of upgrades as older / placeholder upgrades will be replaced with a fallback upgrade. The alternative was making save files from previous versions incompatible. And that would suck.

Soldier

- Weapon Specialist now correctly resets its cooldown when dealing a killing blow.

Hacker

- Fixed an issue with the Hacker Chrome Slinger and Burning Chrome Slinger that could cause a save to fail to load. Older saves containing these items should now load correctly.

UI

- Fixed scrollbar in Wire Terminal misbehaving - thanks Noel!
- Items with upgrades can now be Shift-clicked to view the upgrade details at any time.
- The interface of the Omni Upgrade Station in the shop has been improved.

Misc Fixes

- The Voidonomicon accessory chance to drive the Void Psyker insane no longer increases with each use (though it may still drive you insane).
- Fixed doors into space that could spawn in a lab map.
- It is no longer possible to glitch the Launch Mission button with no mission selected.
- Fixed cases where the Arial font would not display (Combat Log, Lexicon flavor text, etc)
- Fixed Void Energy and Malfunction combat widgets not displaying correctly.
- Minor text fixes.

Coming Soon

- More friendly faction contact events.
- More cool stuff!

Patch 1.7 (27 September 2016)

Technical revisions (Sourcecode and compiler)
Bug fixed: There were some rare reports on Windows 10 when at startup the game showed error messages looking for a file, which was correctly in the game folder.

Patch 1.2.0 (27 September 2016)

- The results from the public preview are looking pretty good, so today we're moving the newest version of the game from our Public Preview out to everyone.

- Most players will see only good things with this patch. But we have noticed a rare occurance on some systems with integrated graphics - textures may get blurrier. This is the result of being safer about allocating texture memory, and the graphic system not reporting correctly. We’ll continue to investigate this.

- Mac Kickstarter Backers on the Mac beta will see some changes - mostly good, some bad. Generally, the Mac performance has improved dramatically. Almost everyone should notice that. The bad news is that you may crash, or only see a black screen at startup. There are two steps to fix this. The first is to upgrade to MacOS Sierra which has fixes that Obduction requires. The second is to remove old shader cache files. Here are the steps to delete the old files:

- Go to the Finder (usually the first thing in your dock)
- Hold down shift + command + g
- Type (or copy and paste) this... ~/Library/Application Support/Epic/Obduction/Saved
- Click Go or push return
- Delete two files... ByteCodeCache.ushadercode and DrawCache.ushadercache

- (If you don’t see those files then you did something wrong, or you don’t have Obduction installed.)
- If you require further help with this, please create a support ticket at: http://support.cyan.com/
