[0.65.0] - 2019-03-01
Note: We recommend a completely clean install. Empty folder. Backup your saves.
Note 2: Cache versions increased, so the game will have to generate it again. This is because more data has been front-loaded into the cache, the caching process will take longer but the game will be smoother during general music select operations and particularly during use of song search.
Note 3: Customize gameplay and the error bar aren’t working properly, this is known and will be hotfixed
Changes/Fixes
-
Gameplay
- The mouse cursor is now invisible in windowed mode
- Added a CB Highlights option to the Player Options. This works how you expect
- Disabled Alt+Enter for this screen only
- Big Change: Restricted the early window for taps immediately after Holds and Rolls to Good or better. This was done so that regrabbing Holds and tapping Rolls doesn’t force an extremely early Bad if there happens to be a tap immediately after it
