Not open for further replies.


Greetings Terrarians!

Since we last left you, the hotfixes have been rolling out (with more to come!), along with some special surprises coming your way a bit later on. Things have been heating up - literally speaking with the outside weather as well as for those "fortunate" enough to survive their encounter with the Torch God. All that said, let's dive into the latest and greatest across the board!

TMODLOADER ISSUES/BUGS

The Re-Logic team does not directly develop TML, so bugs with TML are best reported via the links below.

tModLoader - Play Terraria with Mods!

Sure, sure fixes... but what else are we working on right now? Well, besides the awesomeness that is the Torch God, we are starting to dip our toes into elements of the 1.4.1 update. As a reminder, this will contain the Vanity Contest winners and a handful of other fun things that we either didn't quite get into 1.4 or ideas that came to mind coming out of that launch. No spoilers to give you just yet (nor a timeframe), but wanted to share that work has begun in earnest on this in parallel to the ongoing fixes.


Thanks again, Terrarians - we are as always blown away by your support!

PlayStation 4, XBOX ONE, Nintendo Switch - PIPEWORKS

Additional Console Fixes and Quality of Life Patch Coming Soon!

As we briefly mentioned in various locations in the past, there are a handful of quality of life issues that have existed on Console that we wanted to rectify once we got all of the 1.3.5 content launched. These are things that are not technically bugs per se, but that would improve the experience of players once addressed. What all does this entail?



View attachment 279085

Password Protected Multiplayer Games - want to keep your session private? Set a Password and only share it with the folks you want on your world.


View attachment 279086

Cursor Sensitivity Settings - for both Deadzone and Overall Sensitivity, you can now tailor the speed of your cursor to how you want to play

Map Data on Multiplayer Sessions should now be persistent across sessions (vs resetting each session) - subject to data storage limits!


This update will also contain a solid set of miscellaneous bug fixes (from smaller visual things to some more edge-case impactful items), as we ensure console is in a great place before the leap to 1.4.


index.php


NINTENDO SWITCH


Last time we spoke, Terraria 1.3.5 had just launched for Nintendo Switch! We hope that you have thoroughly enjoyed all of this new and amazing content over the last month. Of course, within that, we have been carefully watching for your bug reports. We are happy to report that we should have a fix wave inbound soon that will address some of the more widespread issues that you have noted to us since 1.3.5 released. These include (but are not limited to):[/SIZE]


  • Enemies making their proper "on hit" and death sounds
  • Bubbles are no longer invisible
  • Underworld freezing
  • Handful of multiplayer desync issues
  • Performance Improvements


As with XB1/PS4, we really want to be sure that the Nintendo Switch version has the fixes it needs and is in a good place before tackling what is next.

index.php

What about 1.4?

We are hoping to be able to share more about the plans for Terraria 1.4 on Console/Switch in the July State of the Game. We are absolutely planning to bring Journey's End to these platforms (since we have seen some rumors stating otherwise), but we know you want the juicy details about what might happen when. Cannot necessarily promise that perfect level of detail next time - but we hope to be able to give some general ideas into the path ahead. :cool:


What about Splitscreen/Local?

Splitscreen has been one of those nagging issues since the launch of Terraria on Nintendo Switch. To get everyone on the same page, the feature does actually exist on the development side, however it is just subject to some rather impactful performance issues - particularly in high-action sequences when both players are on screen at the same time (a Martian Madness invasion in an arena with late game weaponry). The debate has always been centered around what would be "good enough" performance for this feature. Adding to that, as content continued to be layered-on, the risk of getting into a fixed-broken-fixed-broken cycle was a real concern. To be sure, attempts to improve the splitscreen performance have been made over time - with some marked gains - but the performance standard has still not been met.


Ok, so that was the rationale - what's the plan? We have said that we wanted to address the Splitscreen issues in a post-1.3.5 era, which we are in now. Splitscreen will be addressed in parallel during the Journey's End development cycle. We will leave no stone unturned in this quest, and we can only ask for your continued patience as we try to stand up this overdue feature for everyone.

MOBILE - DR STUDIOS

Hello everyone!

So we know that you enjoyed our little "reveal" last month - we did too. ;)

As we said then, there remains a LOT to get done in order to get the entirety of 1.3.1 - 1.4 pulled together for you. Currently, we are at a place where a lot of the new features are in and at least partially functional... while others are still waiting in the wings. We are making huge strides, and we are happy to share a little bit of that progress below.



Remember that these are early development builds, so UI elements are subject to change and you very likely will see bugs (especially visual bugs or performance things) in any of these early screens or short videos. Don't worry, we will get all of those ironed out before the end.




Can you spot all of the fun new things in this video?

Still no update on exact timing. A lot of that will come down to iterations between DR Studios and Re-Logic on UI design elements (and there are a lot of them!) as well as the massive ton of testing that will be needed on both sides... seriously, it is going to be a lot to check over between 1.3 and 1.4. :eek:

We hope this little sneak peak has kept you satiated for now... more to come along our own path to Journey's End!

COMMUNITY

Discord Alliances & Joint Community Events!

With the transition into Summer we thought it would be fun to start having some new and creative events for prizes.

These alliances are very exciting and will include both community collaboration with our alliance partners and fun joint events. Let us give a warm welcome to our new Discord alliance servers: r/leagueoflegends, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and /r/Overwatch.


We are currently in the middle of an /r/Overwatch joint event. The rules are simple: create fan art or other content depicting both Overwatch and Terraria themes. You can vote for the event entries here: Terraria x Overwatch Art Event Voting Gauntlet

There are already some cool submissions:



Join us June 27 for our r/LeagueOfLegends joint event and July 11 for our Animal Crossing: New Horizons joint event. Start working on your submissions now and best of luck to all participants. All entries must be submitted via Discord.

We have some other exciting alliances in the works and will update the Terraria community as they form. We are also actively reviewing potential community alliances.

Could house swap be a feature building spare houses to swap my NPC's is really annoying and a waste of materials XD
 
Could house swap be a feature building spare houses to swap my NPC's is really annoying and a waste of materials XD
ALl I know isn’t on pc you right click the house flag, and mobile, same if using keyboard and mouse controls I think, but non pc controls, I think just click on the flags, console.... no idea.
 
does that mean only 2 player splitscreen? I was hoping for 4 players :(
We'll be lucky to get 2 to be honest. Bought a switch specifically to play terraria in multiplayer and have give up waiting. We don't play it anymore as it's more of a 2 player game for us!
 
Just a question I’m curios about, will keyboard and mouse controls have keybinding and work better on mobile? It would make my life easier than using the mobile controls. Just curious
I was using a Bluetooth keyboard, don’t have a mouse though, but anyways, I have to click to open inventory, but if I press escape it opens settings.... why? And how do I change the controls? .... yeah it’s fine though, just really annoying.
 
On mobile where will the boss health bar go or will there not be one
They will most likely reveal this closer to launch, because they probably still have to work out a good place to put it on the screen for it to not take up like half the screen, but it would be nice if there is an option to move it around, so that it can fit differently on different devices

Sure, sure fixes... but what else are we working on right now? Well, besides the awesomeness that is the Torch God, we are starting to dip our toes into elements of the 1.4.1 update. As a reminder, this will contain the Vanity Contest winners and a handful of other fun things that we either didn't quite get into 1.4 or ideas that came to mind coming out of that launch. No spoilers to give you just yet (nor a timeframe), but wanted to share that work has begun in earnest on this in parallel to the ongoing fixes. Thanks again, Terrarians - we are as always blown away by your support! Back to Table of Contents

PlayStation 4, XBOX ONE, Nintendo Switch - PIPEWORKS
Additional Console Fixes and Quality of Life Patch Coming Soon! As we briefly mentioned in various locations in the past, there are a handful of quality of life issues that have existed on Console that we wanted to rectify once we got all of the 1.3.5 content launched. These are things that are not technically bugs per se, but that would improve the experience of players once addressed. What all does this entail?

View attachment 279086 Cursor Sensitivity Settings - for both Deadzone and Overall Sensitivity, you can now tailor the speed of your cursor to how you want to play Map Data on Multiplayer Sessions should now be persistent across sessions (vs resetting each session) - subject to data storage limits!
This update will also contain a solid set of miscellaneous bug fixes (from smaller visual things to some more edge-case impactful items), as we ensure console is in a great place before the leap to 1.4.

NINTENDO SWITCH
Last time we spoke, Terraria 1.3.5 had just launched for Nintendo Switch! We hope that you have thoroughly enjoyed all of this new and amazing content over the last month. Of course, within that, we have been carefully watching for your bug reports. We are happy to report that we should have a fix wave inbound soon that will address some of the more widespread issues that you have noted to us since 1.3.5 released. These include (but are not limited to):[/SIZE]
  • Enemies making their proper "on hit" and death sounds
  • Bubbles are no longer invisible
  • Underworld freezing
  • Handful of multiplayer desync issues
  • Performance Improvements
As with XB1/PS4, we really want to be sure that the Nintendo Switch version has the fixes it needs and is in a good place before tackling what is next.

What about 1.4? We are hoping to be able to share more about the plans for Terraria 1.4 on Console/Switch in the July State of the Game. We are absolutely planning to bring Journey's End to these platforms (since we have seen some rumors stating otherwise), but we know you want the juicy details about what might happen when. Cannot necessarily promise that perfect level of detail next time - but we hope to be able to give some general ideas into the path ahead. :cool: What about Splitscreen/Local? Splitscreen has been one of those nagging issues since the launch of Terraria on Nintendo Switch. To get everyone on the same page, the feature does actually exist on the development side, however it is just subject to some rather impactful performance issues - particularly in high-action sequences when both players are on screen at the same time (a Martian Madness invasion in an arena with late game weaponry). The debate has always been centered around what would be "good enough" performance for this feature. Adding to that, as content continued to be layered-on, the risk of getting into a fixed-broken-fixed-broken cycle was a real concern. To be sure, attempts to improve the splitscreen performance have been made over time - with some marked gains - but the performance standard has still not been met. Ok, so that was the rationale - what's the plan? We have said that we wanted to address the Splitscreen issues in a post-1.3.5 era, which we are in now. Splitscreen will be addressed in parallel during the Journey's End development cycle. We will leave no stone unturned in this quest, and we can only ask for your continued patience as we try to stand up this overdue feature for everyone.

MOBILE - DR STUDIOS
Hello everyone! So we know that you enjoyed our little "reveal" last month - we did too. ;) As we said then, there remains a LOT to get done in order to get the entirety of 1.3.1 - 1.4 pulled together for you. Currently, we are at a place where a lot of the new features are in and at least partially functional... while others are still waiting in the wings. We are making huge strides, and we are happy to share a little bit of that progress below.
Remember that these are early development builds, so UI elements are subject to change and you very likely will see bugs (especially visual bugs or performance things) in any of these early screens or short videos. Don't worry, we will get all of those ironed out before the end.
Can you spot all of the fun new things in this video?​
Still no update on exact timing. A lot of that will come down to iterations between DR Studios and Re-Logic on UI design elements (and there are a lot of them!) as well as the massive ton of testing that will be needed on both sides... seriously, it is going to be a lot to check over between 1.3 and 1.4. :eek: We hope this little sneak peak has kept you satiated for now... more to come along our own path to Journey's End!
