0.27.4.2 was released on 27 March 2021.[1] This update adds new objectives, changes the photo system, and fixes bugs.
Additions[]
- The ghost will now have a chance to blow out candles if they are close and the room lights are off.
- Added a new objective: Get a Ghost to blow out a Candle.
- Added a new Intermediate and Professional objective: Have a member of your team escape the Ghost during a hunt.
- Added a new Professional objective: Repel the Ghost with a smudge stick while it's chasing someone.
- Added a new Multiplayer objective: Get an average sanity below 25%.
- Added support for bHaptics tact suits and face covers.
- With the VR change to forward rendering MSAA can now be used with VR and will default to 4xMSAA if enabled in the graphics settings.
- Added a post game screen showing some stats about your investigation.
Changes[]
- The Crucifix will now have a visual change with each use instead of disappearing with it's final use.
- The photo reward values now use a quality level which is based on the distance you took the photo rather than the reward being random. This quality level will show in the Journal.
- Each player will now have a unique colour on the mini map and sanity monitor.
- The VR rendering path has been changed from deferred to forward rendering. This will give better VR performance as well as fixing several graphical issues.
- Changed the look of the sanity monitor to help players who are colour blind see the sanity values.
