Patch Notes

Patch 1.3.0-b20453

If you see a 🎸 emoji, know that you as a community helped us make this change, whether that was by providing feedback or reporting bugs!

🆕 New Content and Features

• Added three new Rhythm Rifts based on tracks from Crypt of the NecroDancer:
  
  
  
  • Zone 1-2: Crypteque
    
  • Zone 2-1: Fungal Funk
    
  • Zone 5-2: Power Cords
    
  
  
• Added classic Crypt-style outfits worn by Cadence and the NecroDancer while playing the Crypt tracks
  
• 🎸 Added custom portrait support to Custom Music tracks
  
  
  
  • This includes official compatibility with existing tracks designed for 96 LB's CustomPortRifts mod!
    
  
  
• Added Shopkeeper Mode support to Custom Music tracks
  
  
  
  • See here for more info on custom portraits and Shopkeeper Mode: https://vortexbuffer.com/rift/editor-advanced/

🔁 Changes

• Changed unlock criteria for DLC tracks:
  
  
  
  • From now on, the Impossible difficulty and Remix Mode will be unlocked by default for any song that requires purchase
    
  • Free tracks added via content updates follow the same set of unlock criteria as base game tracks for Impossible difficulty (100 diamonds), Remix Mode (60 diamonds) and Impossible Remix Mode (120 diamonds)
    
  
  
• Changed asset storage format to reduce download size for future updates
  
  
  
  • Future updates to the game should require much less data to be downloaded!

🔧 Level Editor Changes (v4.1.1-b5470)

• 🎸 Added support for offsetting the audio track by a specific number of milliseconds to sync it up with the beatmap
  
  
  
  • This offset is visually indicated by the waveform display on the side of the track, and also applies to preview playback
  
  
• 🎸 Added an option to play a 4-beat or 8-beat countdown at the start of a song
  
  
  
  • The countdown's BPM is based on the starting BPM of the song, independent of BPM change triggers
    
  • The countdown audio does not play in the editor, and is instead represented by visual annotations on the right side of the level
    
  • This can be configured on a per-difficulty basis
    
  • For compatibility, existing songs continue to use silent countdowns by default
  
  
• 🎸 Added an option to select which existing Workshop item to replace when publishing a track
  
• Added a hotkey to mirror the contents of the paintbrush or selection rectangle
  
  
  
  • This is bound to H by default, but can be configured via the options menu
  
  
• 🎸 Added a "Halve BPM" tool, which transforms all enemies on the song into their equivalent half-BPM counterparts, preserving the timings of each hit at a reduced scroll speed
  
• 🎸 Fixed enemies sometimes being saved at beat times below the start of the song

⚒️ Bugfixes

• 🎸 Fixed "DLC now available" item not being removed from Track Select after obtaining all DLCs
  
• 🎸 Fixed Skulls sometimes spawning Skeletons 2 tiles back instead of 1 tile back
  
• 🎸 Fixed enemy hit sounds being out of sync near mid-song BPM changes
  
• 🎸 Fixed enemy timing accuracy issues in Resurrections Hard and Impossible
  
• 🎸 Fixed Skeleton timing accuracy issues in Scattered and Lost Hard
  
• 🎸 Fixed Armadillos snapping to the incorrect sub-beat intervals on Visualize Yourself Impossible
  
• 🎸 Fixed pause menu not opening when pressing the pause button near the end of the song
  
• 🎸 Fixed Practice Mode start/end range not being applied accurately to songs with variable BPM
  
• 🎸 Fixed leaderboards not always being hidden when the Golden Lute modifier is equipped
