We are today happy to announce the release of the major version 1.1 patch! We crammed more stuff than planned into this patch, but all for good reasons. This is why it took a bit longer than expected. Here comes the change list: Upgrade the game engine from UE 4.11 to UE 4.19... phew. Some graphical highlights and particle system glitches we had have been fixed by the UE 4.19 upgrade. Change save file location to AppData and potentially fix other bugs with saving. We think most if not all reported save problems are now fixed but we don't know for sure. Reports and feedback on this are apprecia

Hello everyone! We had a target to get our new patch done before Holiday/Christmas but in the end we did not make it... booho. The biggest reason for this was that we got creative and came up with quite a lot of stuff to add to it! We are close and the patch will most likely be done in the first half of January. Here is the list of major changes and current status: Upgrade Unreal Engine from 4.11 to 4.17. Player capsule properly follows player/HMD instead of staying in center of play space. This means for instance walking in room scale up a slope will move character upward as is expected. A wh

We are continuing to improve the VR support in TSP. Version 1.031 Now supports Oculus Touch! Functionality wise it should be very similar to Vive, apart from a different button layout. On Vive and touch pressing down is now walking backwards instead of resetting the camera. Cam reset is moved to R on the keyboard for now since we assume not many use it a lot (do you?) Game now defaults to following the orientation of the controller and not the headset. This can be changed back in the options if you prefer. AA now defaults to extra sharpened Temporal AA in VR, giving the best possible combinati

As you may have seen in the patch update notes we put 1.03 up earlier today with a whole range of VR fixes and improvements. New is the Explorer Diary, which allows you to re-read and examine secrets found, and can help you figure out what you are still missing. Another cool new thing is that on Vive you can now control the menus directly with the controllers, instead of relying on Oculus style head aim. The PDA has significantly less latency too now, and you now have the option to enabled Temporal AA too. It took a while to get this one out, but we are still dedicated to move further ahead wi

Non VR Achievement for getting all secrets incorrectly triggered at 115 found, instead of 118. VR VR now also features the explorer diary! Get an overview of all you've found within VR. You can aim at menu items using the Vive controllers instead of using head aim. Oculus still uses head aim in menus. PDA now has significant less lag and latency when you move it quickly. The items on the display now correctly follow. Small exceptions left and right might still be possible. Inability to control the main menu or otherwise loss of input has presumably been fixed, or is at least less likely to occ

If you'd like to support us please vote for "The “Whoooaaaaaaa, dude!” award, so that the votes are a concentrated on one category. That aside we are working on a new patch and hope to have it out later this month. We are fixing a number of smaller bugs, and are putting some further work into VR. On the list for VR are the loading screen improvements, and we are experimenting with the diary menu being accessible in VR.
