Chaos Chain

Update 1.2.4 Change Log:

• Fixed chameleon cloaking biware price
  
• Fixed and cleaned up some graphic clipping (Particularly related to lights)
  

• Added new Steam Achievements
  
• Activated Steam's anti-piracy protection on the game's files (YOU MAY GET A FALSE POSITIVE WITH YOUR ANTIVIRUS THAT THE GAME.EXE IS UNTRUSTED NOW - THAT'S JUST BECAUSE IT IS A NEW VERSION OF THE FILE AND UNKNOWN AT THE MOMENT - RELAX, STEAM HAS ITS OWN FILE VERIFICATION AND AUTHENTICATION SYSTEMS - YOU'RE SAFE)
  
• Further improvements to make the mouse more accurate (Minor this time)
  
• Added a 1.5 second cooldown on event position saving updates for exterior city areas with a lot of events (Before this change, it was rapid and constant, it should now be more optimized and help with performance)
  
• Repositioned some of the hub position-auto-saving events (To be more efficient)
  
• Rewrote the transitional intro text to be more specific about ongoing events in the game world (Explaining your character's position in the game world in the beginning)
  
• Updated Stubborn Love P2 quest description
  
• Added Helping Hands side quest (Pretty long side quest with some good benefits if you complete it)
  
• Renamed pain pills to painkillers
  
• Intro red blur image changed to blue
  
• Added rain effects to the intro
  
• Added support equipment slot (Total slots now 15)
  
• Added cloak support equipment
  
• Added Auto-Injector support equipment
  
• Reclassified several of the accessories to go in the new support slot
  
• Camel Pack gadget now goes in the support slot
  
• Added a new character interaction
  
• Added some new skill/stat checks
  
• Added new graphics for new characters, equipment, etc
  
• Updated a few shops
  
• Updated some dialogues
  
• Gas masks now block the accessory slot (So you can't equip a respirator and gas mask at the same time mainly)
  
• Added Accuracy IV learnable passive skill
  
• Added Accuracy V learnable passive skill
  
• Added more detail objects to exterior areas
  
• Added a bit more clutter to some areas
  
• Increased volume of all loudspeaker announcement sound effects based on feedback (10% each)
  
• Increased contrast of all environment items by 5 points
  
• Added some shadows/shading to certain environment objects to make them "Pop" a bit more
  
• Slightly increased the radius of visibility around the player character
  
• Got rid of some old leftover code and database items
  
• Added a 20 frame (1/3 second) pause after map transfers to help with event processing (This change is to help ensure that everything on the previous map before a transfer has ample time to process and finish their tasks and then once the transfer is complete, it should help the new map events run smoother)
  
• Reduced rolling fog opacity slightly
  
• Menu fog effect replaced with descending scanlines (Looks really good and gives off that "Cyberpunk" vibe)
  
• Menu fog effect now plays in all menu windows (Never realized until now that this wasn't happening already)
  
• Battle fog z coordinate is now 9999 instead of 1 so it shows above all other windows and entities on screen
  
• The menu will now reopen after the world map screen is closed (It threw you back into the game before)
  
• Active party member image overlay now has white brackets around the upper left and bottom right corners to give some depth and add a slight "camera" effect
  
• Active party member image overlay opacity reduced slightly so it's easier to see the character portraits
  
• Updated Sergeant Ash's dialogue (Not yet finished)
  
• A few other minor adjustments and tweaks
  

Chaos Chain

Update 1.2.3 Change Log:

• Fixed some typos
  

• Tweaks to the intro (Some of the new effects didn't look good)
  
• Reduced the range for the protest shouts/sounds to activate by 2 (To help with performance)
  
• Improved protest loop handling and performance (They were impacting FPS slightly, the timer and on/off switch are now both globally controlled so they cannot become stuck on or off if the player leaves the area before the countdown finishes)
  
• A few other minor adjustments and tweaks

• Added additional testing functionalities to the game's backend (These are mainly to help me during development, but if you notice anything odd, please let me know)
  
• Debugging mode now has access to modify game variables and game switches (Booleans) on the go (F9 key is debugging is activated - you're welcome testers ;-P)
  
• Debugging mode can now be toggled directly from the PDA
  
• Debugging mode in game now allows you to hold CTRL on the keyboard and walk through/over everything
  
• Continue command at the title screen is no longer automatically highlighted if a save file is found (This change is made first to help throughout EA when saves are corrupted by major updates so people don't immediately jump in and experience a crash, but I also made this change because it felt unnecessary to do this to begin with)
  
• Added new weather effect variant (Dustfall, this brings the total to weather variants to 21)
  
• Added a slight screen shake effect to the intro
  
• Added a new randomized travel event
  
• Updated the intro slightly

• Updated some existing dialogues
  
• Added scrap pistol firearm (Extremely cheap, weak, and ugly)
  
• Added scrap pistol attack animation
  
• Added festung jaeger sniper rifle (Hunting rifle in actuality, cheaper than the Brunetta Stiletto but still gives you a precision rifle with high stopping power)
  
• Added festung jaeger attack animations
  
• Added hand claws exotic weapon
  
• Added hand claws unique attack animation

• Disabled a few random soundtracks (They didn't fit the theme well enough)
  
• Mouse cursor saturation increased slightly
  
• Minor adjustments to the mouse system to improve functionality and accuracy (This is actually a really huge, really nice change because it makes the mouse MUCH more accurate in selectable windows)
