1.16.7 Hotfix Is Available - Please Upgrade!


Dear shipmates,

As some of you might have realized by now, we have released a 1.16.7 "hotfix" on top of the major 1.16.5 update. This new release contains two fixes over 1.16.5:

* It fixes a crash that would occur when Floating Sandbox detects that a new update is available;

* It fixes a graphical issue on some specific graphics cards, whereby the ocean would be rendered as completely white.

Especially the first issue is a bit annoying, as that bug was introduced in 1.16.4 and it is now making it impossible for us to allow Floating Sandbox installations worldwide to detect new updates. For this reason you are *strongly* advised to upgrade to 1.16.7; we will then re-enable automatic updates once enough users have ditched 1.16.4 and have upgraded to 1.16.7.

So, go ahead and upgrade!!! And talk to you soon with news on the next update!!!

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.
