Version 1.5.0

posted by Eric on 14. 11. 2010

Welcome to Lookshy! I'm talking about version 1.5.0 of Anathema, released yesterday with versions available for Linux, Windows, and OS X. Enjoy!

Changelog:

  • Support for much new material:
    • Ink Monkeys is supported through vol. 37. Charms now cite Ink Monkeys as their source, with the "page number" specifying the volume in which they appear.
    • Scroll of Errata is supported through today, including all Dawn Solution material.
    • Character creation templates from Dreams of the First Age are now included, though not all of their features are supported just yet.
  • Many bugs fixed:
    • Invincible Essence Reinforcement now correctly modifies Natural Soak.
    • The descriptions of all Necromancy and Sorcery spells now display correctly.
    • It's no longer possible to give Anathema a repository location where it lacks the permissions to create the repository; this previously left Anathema crashing on load.
  • Known problems:
    • The Solar Melee charm tree is currently a bit of a mess, due to the sheer number of charms overwhelming our layout algorithm. Hopefully, this will be fixed soon.

Planned changes for the near-future:

  • Improve our support for Simple charms combo-able with charms of other abilities.
  • Improved item support, including attunement costs and other effects.
  • Persistence of Limit and other related concepts.
  • Support for Divine Transcendence, Glory to the Most High, and other Essence-altering effects.
  • Second Edition Abyssals! (This will be version 2.0.)
