Changelog for 1.4.0.47

• Changed 'Horn Plate' attachment to also add 30 durability.
  
• Changed 'Bone Plating' attachment to have a penalty of -2 to Maximum Fatigue.
  
• Changed 'Additional Fur Padding' attachment to have a penalty of -2 to Maximum Fatigue.
  
• Changed 'Unhold Fur Cloak' attachment to also add 10 durability.

• Changed orcs to have particularly powerful hand-to-hand attacks to make them less useless (but still significantly weakened) while temporarily disarmed using whips.

• Changed main menu background to get randomly picked from different artworks of the game.
  
• Changed default configuration (used when first starting the game or resetting your configuration) to disable the hardware cursor option, as a recent Nvidia driver update introduced performance issues for some players. Not using a hardware cursor will add some mouse lag, but the hardware cursor option can easily be activated in the game's options menu if it runs fine for you or Nvidia fixes the issue in the future.
  
  
• Fixed 'Lunge' skill not properly taking into account the effect of the 'Relentless' perk.
