This is one of the benefits of early access but also one of its greatest curses.

The problem with game development, especially in small teams, is being able to test all of the content to make sure its bug free and smooth before it gets released. Overall one thing we need to avoid is making things worse. We have now managed to improve this system so only a small amount of water around your character is rendered leading to a significant frame rate improvement. We use a very detailed reflection system which lead to water being always on, which is very costly. The area you will see the biggest change here is with water.

Now this stage is complete we need to present you with an updated Road Map which will be coming in the near future that will explain what we will fix and change as well as provide some detail on new content that we know you are all excited to hear about and play.Īs well as the engine update we have started to make other performance improvements by re-writing portions of code and changing some visual effects to give a higher frame rate.
You should initially notice that the game *feels* a bit smoother but mostly it allows us to add some new technologies in that we can use in the near future to give you better gameplay, from things like a new Input System (affecting mouse movement and potential controller support) to new cinematic cameras and live real time events. Updating the engine comes with several benefits. If you look this up you will see that yes there are newer versions, however we needed one that offers Long Term Support as well as not jumping too far ahead from the 2019 version. That main change with this is an update of the Unity Engine from a 2019 version to the newer 2021.3.3f1 version. In essence, what we have done is change some of the core tech the game uses as well as streamlined some of our production pipelines. If you followed our Tech Blogs you would have seen that we were doing “things” but as it was all short comments aimed at internal users it may not have made a lot of sense.
We are now 3 months and 1 week after that and finally have some news for you as well as a new Beta Test Environment for you to use. As you are aware we had some significant issues that we needed to take time to solve that we estimated would take 3 months.
#BOOK OF TRAVELS DOWNLOAD FULL#
The availability of this full edition will give a new generation of readers access to a travel narrative that has inspired other readers and writers over two centuries and will enliven scholarly discussion in many fields.We want to thank you for your patience. Park’s narrative serves as a crucial text in relation to scholarship on the history of slavery, colonial enterprise, and nineteenth-century imperialism. In preparing this new edition, editor Kate Ferguson Marsters presents the complete text and includes reproductions of all the original maps and illustrations. His accounts of war, politics, and the spread of Islam, as well as his constant confrontations with slavery as practiced in eighteenth-century West Africa, are as valuable today as they were in 1799. While his warm reaction to the people he met made him famous as a sentimental traveler, his chronicle also provides a rare written record of the lives of ordinary people in West Africa before European intervention. Without much of an idea of where he was going, he relied entirely on local people for food, shelter, and directions throughout his eventful eighteen month journey. Unlike the large expeditions that followed him, Park traveled only with native guides or alone. Coreghessan Boyle have acknowledged the influence of Park’s narrative on their work. As a tale of adventure and survival, it has inspired the imaginations of readers since its first publication in 1799 and writers from Wordsworth and Melville to Conrad, Hemingway, and T. His modest, low-key heroism made it possible for the British public to imagine themselves as a welcomed force in Africa. In fulfilling his mission to find the Niger River and in documenting its potential as an inland waterway for trade, Park was significant in opening Africa to European economic interests. Mungo Park’s Travels in the Interior Districts of Africa has long been regarded as a classic of African travel literature.
