Game publisher Meridian4 (http://www.meridian4.com/) and developer Frozenbyte send along word that they are releasing a patch for their very successful Action/Shooter, Shadowgrounds.
About the Patch
The patch features some minor fixes within the game and some additional features. The patch also prepares the game to support the upcoming downloadable Level Editor, which will be available next week. Below is a list of some of the fixes and added features:
FIXES:
Crash bug related to fonts fixed (this affected PDAs, weapon upgrade menu and some others)
Minor text fixes throughout the English version
Many collisions fixed in the missions, the player should no longer be able to get to the "edge of the world" in any mission
New sound drivers should help with some sound issues
Mission 4: ISERCom; Some people have experienced problems like getting stuck in the corridor fight in the middle of Mission 4. (The doors should open automatically after x minutes).
Mission 7: Provectus; in co-op, players should be able to continue the game if they die during the Provectus reactor fixing.
GeForce 6600GT; some graphics bugs fixed (new NVIDIA drivers fix a lot of bugs too)
FEATURES:
Keyboard-only aiming possibility added (no mouse required)
Windowed mode now with titlebar (movable window)
Unofficial support for more keyboard buttons
After completing the game on "Hard" difficulty, a new difficulty setting "Very Hard" becomes available.
After completing the game on "Very Hard" difficulty, the ultimate difficulty setting becomes available: "Impossible".
"Reset After Load" added to Shadowgrounds Launcher; if the game crashes when you press "START" in the Loading Menu, disabling this feature may help on some graphics cards.
Cheat code support added
Configuration to allow future Level Editor support
