Patch 1.05 OverviewWhen launching version 1.05 for the first time, a backup of your saves from the previous version will be created automatically, just in case. When loading a save from an older version (prior to 1.05), several important things will happen:A script to restore missing quest items will run in the background.An autosave will be triggered, updating your current save to version 1.05 with the new save/load logic. All subsequent saves during that session will use the updated system.Missing Quest ItemsOn the first load in version 1.05, the script will attempt to restore all quest items that disappeared from the world by checking your inventory and other indirect conditions, such as whether a quest has been started or completed.If, for any reason, the script does not fully complete, and you still do not see the required item in your inventory, you can use the spawnitem command (more on debug commands below).This applies only to saves from version 1.04, where the items were already missing in the save file. In a new game started on version 1.05, this issue should not occur.Killed Quest NPCsIf you accidentally killed a story-related NPC earlier than intended, you can use the setalivenpc command. It’s best to enter this command away from the location where the character died, or to move away and then re-enter the NPC’s spawn radius after using the command.Below, we will include a list of characters who could have been killed earlier than intended.Upcoming Update Plans1.05b – In-game issue reporting form and an automated crash reporter.1.06 – Crafting update: recipe adjustments, creation and upgrading of “Legends,” buffs to two-handed axes and hammers, and several improvements based on player feedback (such as the ability to craft multiple items at once).1.07 – General patch: fixes for quests, gameplay mechanics, and logic issues.1.08 – Balance update: improvements and adjustments to combat mechanics that are either not working as originally intended or causing issues. Around version 1.10, we expect to begin implementing the first major optimizations affecting RAM and VRAM usage. These changes should have a positive impact on loading times and overall game stability.
