Frontier refreshes the login, the launcher and how the world loads. Your characters, items and progression are preserved.
World
- A gentler transition into Ashen, with more natural coastlines and mountain edges.
- The eastern coastal road now connects to the mountain pass, with new scenery along the route.
- A natural spring and small waterfall now feed the river.
- A village chapel with Sister Elowen: speak to her to make the chapel your home and respawn point.
- Clearer sign text around the world and a training spot in Ashenwatch.
Login and launcher
- Refreshed login and character selection, with a preview of your selected character.
- Updated launcher design using scenery captured in Orvet.
Loading and diagnostics
- Respawns and long teleports now load the destination in stages, with a loading screen until the area is ready.
- Added diagnostics to help investigate the reported crashes when dropping items on the ground. The cause of those crashes has not yet been confirmed.
How to update
Close Orvet and use Check / Repair in the launcher to update the game.
The new launcher design requires downloading the new launcher executable.
