I've just pushed version 1.0.2549. This is an update to version 1.0.

The only change is that the game will no longer log errors when processing mod metadata (About.xml) from a multi-version mod that supports 1.0 and 1.1. It's purely a small compatibility fix.

A new version of 1.1 unstable has just been posted.

- Improved the code that auto-generates packageIds for old mods. It should generate somewhat meaningful packageIds where possible, and use some hashed data to avoid collisions.
- Medieval weapons can no longer be biocoded since it made no sense.
- Fixed an issue that caused spurious error happens if a mod defines no defs, but still has patches.
- Fixed mod sorting tool using packageId with postfix.
- Removed warnings on duplicate mods present but only one of them active
- Fixed typos and outdated references in ModUpdating.xml.
- Re-labeled some animal trainables to better match what they actually mean. "Obedience" is now called "Guard", and "Release" is now called "Attack".
- Removed some guard and attack trainability from a few animals where it didn't make sense and broke gameplay roles.

Regarding the last entry above, the goal is to move towards a situation where animals have identifiabl... Read more

I've just pushed a compatibility update to RimWorld version 1.0 (not version 1.1 unstable).

It removes the spurious errors that 1.0 creates when reading mod metadata (About.xml) written for 1.1.

The new version is 1.0.2548.

A new build of 1.1 unstable is up! Just some minor fixes.

The changes are:

- Fixed a bug that caused mods to not load if they added defs using patches (which is useful if you want to add a def based on some condition).
- In About.xml, we changed back to for consistency. Modders can remove now.
- We rewrote part of ModUpdating to reflect the fact that 1.0 can load some content from a folder named "1.0", and removed corresponding warnings from code. See ModUpdating.txt for full details.

Thanks for the ongoing feedback everyone! And to our excellent volunteer testers and modders for giving such useful feedback. It's really down to them that this release has gone smoothly.

RimWorld version 1.1, a major update from version 1.0, is now available for public testing and modding on Steam’s unstable beta branch. That’s right everyone – RimWorld is done, but that doesn’t mean we’re done with it!

You can find a full change log for this update at the bottom of this post. This update will be released to the default branch soon; we’ve placed it on the unstable branch now to get in some final testing and to smooth out the transition for mods.

If you want to help test, right-click RimWorld in your Steam library list, click Properties, then select the ‘betas’ tab. Select ‘unstable’ from the drop-down list. Note that this version is unstable and might break.

We will be carefully watching for critical bugs and fixing them! If you find anything, please post about it on the Ludeon bugs forum... Read more

I've just pushed a regular player content and localizations update, to version 1.0.2408.

This update doesn't change any code or core content in the game, it only updates player-created names and characters, and translations data.

All save games and mods should be compatible.
