    Hey everyone!

    First up, the major change this time around is the addition of Steam Achievements! If after the build is out you have trouble seeing progress on the achievements, please get in touch with us on the forums! If not, for the completionists out there - get collecting! There are 64 achievements total including 4 super secret achievements. Huge props to @norill and @Skinney, our two interns who have been behind this massive workload!

    Some of the sweet achievement art! 64 of these bad boys to unlock!

    Secondly, the game has been changed from a 4:3 ratio by default to a more modern widescreen layout - the default resolution has changed from 1024x768 to 1280x720 (720p). This should increase the appearance of the game at most modern fullscreen resolutions, and allow the use of KAG on some laptop screens with a small vertical resolution. The game will also no longer allow the specification of a window size very close to the desktop resolution - the reason for this is that the OS will resize the window anyway in those cases and cause the game to render badly.

    This change may cause some teething pains and graphical issues, please report them on the forums and we'll look into the ASAP. We're still working on some of the "black screen" issues introduced recently, but it seems that a lot of these issues are actually caused by out of date graphics drivers. Please update your drivers before reporting any graphical issues on any OS!

    Game side, a few small things have been added and fixed:
    Code:
    [fixed] mines will reliably deploy in all settings as long as they are still
    	(note - this does mean that they wont deploy when on a moving boat, but they can be moved once deployed and wont retract)
    [fixed] fire kills not credited correctly
    [fixed] several crashes
    [added] SURGE head - congratulations for winning MLK2!
    [modified] flowers more colourful
    [removed] Warboat decaying when left alone
    [fixed] ramming kills not credited
    [added] drill hitter type
    [fixed] several tutorial placement/graphical bugs (thanks makmoud98)
    [added] sync to faketech methods (may fix desync on ballista bomb bolt tech)
    
    Have Fun!

    Max, Michal and all the THD Team!

    Capture the princess is broken. It keeps on fading at the end so you cant complete it. Also at the moment the achievements still don't work.

    Still not getting the achievements after doing the tasks to unlock them.
    It said to contact you if this happened, so...
    Also it says wrong server password when I try to play any solo mission.
    Just to let you know. :P

    Anyways, thanks guys for helping in advance.

    No longer will I be forced to watch another (wo)man get credit for my (totally epic, I swear...) kill because they managed to land a jab after my fire arrow hit the enemy.

    Some players perceiving the new forcing resolution system is making their normal zoom distance bigger. I bet that those, as me, were used to play KAG with a stretched zoom (native resolution is 1366 x 768 here), where everything was a bit wider than high. That might be a killer if you're used to. It would be good for us old rats to have the possibility of not forcing the resolution into how it's supposed to look like. Check what I mean and what some of us are used to:
    First image is previous build (the emot wheel reaches the bottom and the emots are a bit stretched, as everything else, and the zoom looks closer).

    (I suppose we'll get used t it and we will all be happy with the new update, so don't take this too seriously.)

  7. Achievements not working for me as well.

    Expecting a hotfix to start catching them all ::D:

    KAG crashed because of a runtime error, first time happening. And archers are still as Overpowered. Thanks for the update, though.

    EDIT to my statement:
    apparently somebody was attempting to join a server with this name من می خورد دیک خو (not joking). Server can't handle it

    In your KAG folder, open autoconfig.cfg with a text editor, search for "sv_password" and make sure there's nothing after the "=" like this:

    I assume you mean Save the Princess. It seems to work fine for me, can someone else try too?

    Achievements are disabled by accident :oops: they're finished though so I assume a hotfix will come soon

    You forgot about new hidden (not known yet) bug.
    Btw. being not able to do any damages as a builder wasn't fixed? ...
    Also achievements - is not it retarded to make an update and forgot to enable the most important feature of it?
    (Sorry Norill >:P) and thanks, you've made something that should be done months ago. Props2u.
