Graphical patch is out

We recently updated the game. Its small patch that change internal graphics settings and shaders that can improve performance, especially on budget PC. Maybe it can fix black screen bug, but its not tested!

Black screen crash issue

We faced really nasty issue and now we are investigating it deeply. It seems on the AMD and Intel videocards game crashing after logos. This problem is top priority now, thanks!:trumpet:

How to recover old saves after the recent update

In the recent update the executable file and data folder have been renamed so thats caused save files to lose. But thanks to Nice Puppies we have a solution:


I noticed that after I got the recent 0.5.1 update, all of my game settings were reset when I started up the game. I found out why. Before this update, the game's save files were saved at: "Steam\SteamApps\common\Ancient Guardian\lab_data\save". Now they are saved in a different location: "Steam\SteamApps\common\Ancient Guardian\AncientGuardian_Data\save". If you want to recover your old settings, you can simply just go into the "lab_data\save" folder and cut the two files that are in there (profile.dat and settings.dat), and paste those two files into the new location which is mentioned above. Then you can delete the "lab_data" folder because it's not needed anymore


Cheers!
