Introducing the Black Forge Jam!

Post
Hello everyone!

Back in December of 2023, halls of Studio Black buzzed with an exciting flurry of activity for the team’s inaugural Black Forge Jam: a three-day extravaganza of creativity and innovation, with just a dash of chaos. This wasn't your average development sprint. We threw the rulebook out the window (figuratively speaking, of course) to dive into the realms of "What if?" and "Why not?" for Crusader Kings III.



A Dive into Uncharted Waters
Imagine a space where time, budget, and the usual game plan constraints are sidelined, allowing for pure, unadulterated creativity. That's what the Black Forge Jam was all about. With 11 different projects on the table, different groups from the CK3 Dev team embarked on a journey to explore the unexplored and build the unbuilt, all fueled by a passion for innovation and perhaps a copious amount of ca...

Legends of the Dead - Pre-Release Stream + Dev Q&A - March 4

Comment
Silens said: Indirect question: LoD releases on 4th of March, you say 16:00 to 17:00 CET is pre-release. Does that mean that it releases at roughly 18:00 CET?
Very roughly.

We don't guarantee release times; there's a lot of stuff that has to happen in quick succession for launch, which means lots of opportunities for things to get held up.

EDIT: Ah damn I should have left that for the Q&A  

Legends of the Dead - Pre-Release Stream + Dev Q&A - March 4

Post
Hello everyone! As explained by the title, we're planning to host a pre-release stream for Legends of the Dead on March 4 from 16:00 to 17:00 CET.

As part of this stream, we're looking to answer some questions from the community! In the interest of those who can't attend live, we're taking questions from various platforms online to answer during the stream. So, uh... drop a question below! No guarantees we'll get to a specific question or not; we're working under time constraints so we likely won't be able to get to everything.

Watch the stream at 16:00 CET via the links below!

[PREVIEW] Legends of the Dead + 1.12.1 "Scythe" Changelog

Comment
TheMind said: Great update! Any news on macOS crashes?
We'll include this in a known issues post on Monday to cast a wide net, but since you're already asking: There's a quirk where Steam isn't properly changing the capitalization of certain files, and that's causing issues since MacOS and Linux both use case-sensitive filesystems out of the box.

Do a full uninstall, verify that nothing is left in the game folder, and reinstall.
