To clarify a bit on the question I'm asking at the end:

We're moving our meetings to every two weeks, so that way the devs can have more work actually done before reporting in. It's also helpful since for me the meeting is at 7/8AM, but for the bulk of the team it's at around 8PM. Makes life a bit easier for all parties involved.

This means that there can't be weekly dev notes; while I can see that there is stuff being done, I don't really have a ton of context aside from some commits to the internal build. When we do the dev meetings, I'll often ask a bit for some clarification on certain things and for the okay to share other things. Without that additional info, I run the risk of not accurately portraying what's going on - also, some things are being developed but don't show in the internal changelog until they get added to the build.

So, back to the question; since I can't give weekly updates on dev progress any longer, do you want:

• Weekl...

Thanks yall :)

If we do weekly ones, every other post won't have dev notes. It's kind of a bummer, but at the same time it will be a bit less repetitive while also meaning that the dev notes will have a bit more 'meat' on them :)

Hey all!

As for development, here's a screenshot of what we've been working on for the past few weeks! Arid is coming along pretty nicely, especially with some improved workflows and also getting all hands on deck in terms of artists for development.

As you might be able to ...

It was a weird loophole in some bot perms where it would reference everyone - sorry for the issue. It's fixed now though!

Hope not! It was some obscure permissions loophole.

We fixed it, unforeseen bot issue. :(

Like others said, there's non-console votekick functionality. We do need to make things more visible and communicate these types of things to players, though.

No crossplay for PC and consoles, getting parity between inputs isn't really possible.

thanks for snitching :P

Hey everyone, sorry for the late post!

Like always, we'd love to hear your ideas for the future of MORDHAU - any comments, questions, feedback, suggestions etc. are all welcome, and they help steer us onto the right track for development. Please be respectful to each other and keep posts constructive, thanks!

As for this week's development, no major notes; we skipped this week's meeting and we're reformatting how we do them in general to be more efficient. Expect notes to resume as normal going forwards though. With that being said, a few things that we've done this week are:

• Arid: The new map is still our primary goal, and work continues on its development.
  • The castle section is getting more art done, such as lightmaps, details etc.
  • FL/INV are getting further development, with tweaks to the existing structure based on internal feedback.
  • The gatehouse area is being further developed; breaking the building into smaller ...

yo look at that NECK

So options are cool and we try to add them when we can, but from my understanding when we update the game or engine version it means that there are more things that need to be addressed and more potential points of failure. This doesn't mean we won't ever add any more settings, but it just means that we have to be a bit more conservative in that regard.

More clear animations, for the most part, but we're looking at some general timing changes etc.

Yeah, going back and finding all the VA's and getting them to re-record lines is probably not gonna happen :(

Hello everyone!

New week, same drill - if you all have any questions, suggestions, or general thoughts on the game, we'd love to hear them! Like always, please be civil to each other, and also keep things constructive - thanks! :)

As for this week, most of the work was on the armory and Arid - there haven't been any major issues so far, currently we've just been taking bites out of our to-do list. A little more detail from this week:

• Crush has been making some good progress on ripostes; while changing an animation isn't the most time-consuming thing in the world, there's a difference between changing an animation and making that animation readable. Animations are a huge part of the gameplay, so we've been taking our time here.
• Work continues on Arid - it's still the main priority for development. Elwebarro is working on interior lighting and other FX related things, trying to nail the feel for the level. Lighting on this map will be a little...

We can definitely look into gamepad changes, we'll probably need to fix all that up when we do console ports regardless!

We could look a little at tweaking it, depends on the balance of the specific objective
