Den-Den: Tokyo Horror patch notes & updates

Recycling System Updates

We have made major updates to the recycling system in the game. These changes are applicable to both existing saved games and new games. Major Changes: Recycle stations across the city now have dedicated map markers.

Major Fixes: The "Dog Lady" quest line is now working and has been re-added back into the game. We fixed the original crash that would occur whenever a "Pack Leader" enemy would spawn into the game world.

Major Fixes: Removed the loading screen we were using previously from the game. Previously we were using the "Async Loading Plugin" for Unreal Engine, but we believe this was the root cause of most of the startup crashes people were having.

Major Fixes: Some users have reported crashing on the startup movies where the Frozen Lake Software logo and Unreal Engine logo appear. We've removed the startup movies from auto-playing while we identify the root cause of the issue.

Minor Fixes: Fixed a bug where some users had a corrupted save file and were unable to complete the quest inside the Higashi-Kagutaba Underground dungeon.

Game Balance changes: Developers Notes: To help put the following changes into perspective, it would be helpful to know that normally, a player has a maximum stamina of 200. This can be increased with items found in the game, but in general, a player has max of 200 stamina.

Major Fixes: Removed the animated eyeball that follows your mouse cursor from the main menu screen. Developer Notes: We continue to receive reports from a small number of people that when they launch the game, before even being able to click "New Game", the game crashes for them.

Major Fixes: Added a rendering optimization to the "Moving Eyeball" on the Main Menu. This change has been made due to a small number of users reporting that the game immediately crashes when they open it from Steam.

Major Fixes: Fixed a major issue that causing the game to crash for all players whenever the "Pack Leader" enemy type would spawn into the game world. We have temporarily disabled the "Pack Leader" enemy type from spawning into the game while we investigate the issue further.

Major Fixes: Fixed a critical bug that was causing some players to not be assigned at least 50% of the abandoned homes that are part of the Police quest from being assigned to the player.

Major Fixes: Fixed a bug where the player would get locked out from the Senior Medical Facility if the first time they entered the level was after the clock had reached 22:15. Fixed a bug where the Nurse NPC inside the Senior Medical Facility had her dialog stuck in a loop.

Major Fixes: Fixed multiple major bugs that were creating soft locks across the entire game. Dog Lady questline is now correctly being triggered and completed. Yakuza questline failure is now being triggered correctly.

Major Fixes: Changed how auto-saves work. Auto-saves now exclusively re-use the same file and overwrites itself as the auto-save system is activated.

Major Fixes: Fixed issue that was preventing players from turning in ID cards to the police station. Fixed issue where the player could use weapons in areas they shouldn't be allowed to use weapons.
