(Disable either one will increase performance) - Added the option to disable pixel perfect again in the options menu.
Before we dive into the changelog, we would like to talk about the backstory for this update.
We started working on our next game pretty soon after the Convoy release in 2015. Eventually, Landinar: Into the Void was released into Early Access in September 2018. In a wave of enthusiasm to marry the two games and their stories, creating a shared universe between them, our enthusiasm and ambition towards Convoy also started to grow again. No matter how frustrated we could get over this game from time to time, we never stopped loving Convoy.
Our knowledge and abilities have improved immensely over the years, and while we still work hard on Landinar: Into the Void every day, we decided to grab some moments to return to Convoy and present you with this holiday gift. With love, from Convoy Games to you.
Most importantly, we managed to fix some persisting issues which we weren't able to fix in the old Unity engine. We also added some new content and features for you to enjoy over the holidays.
Convoy update 1.1.52 - full notes:
- Updated the Unity engine from v4 to v2017.
- Fixed performance UI.
- Fixed problems with higher or unusual resolutions.
- Fixed an issue with lethal objects not being removed on end of combat.
- Fixed a broken part of the Omni-directional Booster mainquest.
- Removed the option Pixel Perfect from the options menu.
- Added post processing effects.
- Added an option to disable post processing effects.
- Added key binding options.
- Added 14 new scenarios.
- Added 1 new car with 4 variations.
- Added more road details like bushes and rocks.
From the entire team at Convoy Games: Happy Holidays, everyone!
Cheers,
Sander, Sipke, Roy, Erik, Kevin and Ryanne
Edit:
A patch was pushed to fix the loading screen issue.
We are currently looking into the missing achievements and performance issues.
Owners of Convoy received a 33% discount coupon when Landinar: Into the Void launched in Early Access in September. These coupons were only available for a short time and some people missed this opportunity.
Steam doesn't allow us to generate our own coupons, so instead we have worked out this bundle so everyone can benefit from the same deal.
With the Convoy Games Collection Bundle you will get 33% discount for buying both our games, or a 33% discount on either game if the other is already in your Steam Library!
After over 3 years of hard work, we are very proud to launch Landinar: Into the Void today!
The game is already fun to play, and we feel it is time to involve players to shape the final parts of the game and its development. The early access release is an open world sandbox where you are free to explore the universe, take on missions, find tech and build your own space ship.
With this early access release our main goal is to complete a story mode campaign. During early access we will also keep expanding the game while listening to you as a player to pinpoint our priorities and additional features.

Hey everyone, We've just uploaded a small update containing some minor fixes for the scenario editor. Additionally, Sleffie has adjusted some scenarios based on player feedback. More importantly, the Convoy Sound Track will be released on Steam today! This is long overdue, but it's here at last! We also released the Convoy Soundtrack Edition which includes the game and soundtrack! Hooray! :) The Convoy OST is a full length album containing all 17 songs from the game. There are the 8 ambient tracks, along with the 8 action tracks. The "bonus" credits song is also included! All the proceeds from the soundtrack go directly to the artist since we feel he deserves it more than we do. It's his work, after all. :)

We've just uploaded a new update: v1.1.51! This should resolve the issue for both Mac and Linux users (this issue didn't affect the Windows build). Please let us know if you still experience any problems. We've also set up the "Old_Build" branch to run v1.1.4, so if you still have issues, try that build instead and let us know if that works for you. To switch branch, go to the "Betas" tab in the Steam settings. For those wanting to know what the issue was I'll try to explain it. We have a system that stores game progress such as stats, achievements and unlocks. This system used to write to an xml file (GameStats.xml) every time a stat changed (i.e. fuel was spent by driving on the world map). This caused some issues for Windows users with certain antivirus software. Every time the file was changed, the antivirus software would scan the file. This caused the game to be unable to access the file while it was being scanned. Normally this wasn't really a problem as the scanning process is usually very fast and the file would only be accessed about once per second, but on some hard- and software combinations the file would be inaccessible too long resulting in the game throwing a bunch of errors and all kinds of strange issues. To remedy this problem, we changed the frequency the file would be accessed. Now it is only accessed whenever the game is saved, and all changes in between are stored in memory. This apparently introduced a new bug where on Mac and Linux systems the file would not be created if it didn't exist yet. It took us quite a while to figure out this was the issue since it only affected players who just bought the game. Due to the recent Steam sale, there has been quite an influx of new players so it makes sense that this bug suddenly came up a lot. We initially thought it might have been a driver or OS update that caused this, as all initial reporters had Macbook Pro models with an Intel Iris video chip. This theory was further supported when we tried to reproduce this issue and it was only reproducible on a new Macbook which of course had the Intel Iris chip. It was only when we received some decent error logs from you guys (thanks for that! <3 ) that we figured out what the actual issue was. Note: We've still got some mystery error logs that DO only seem to affect Mac users with Intel Iris chips. So if you still have issues with this new update, please let us know!

We've uploaded a small update which should fix an issue that affected only a few people, but completely broke the game for them.

Version 1.1.3 is now live with a tiny update that should fix launch issues people were having when creating mods for Steam Workshop. There has been no change in the DRM-free build. In other news, for people experiencing problems like being unable to launch the game, unsaved stats, endless loot and other strange issues we have some good news! We have determined that these issues are likely caused by a conflict between the game and some virus scanners. We have yet to determine what caused this and come up with a fix. For now, manually disabling the virus scanner from scanning Convoy should work! <3

Today we have a small update that should fix some issues from yesterday's build. Changelog: Fixed:
In this update we bring you the scenario and unit editor! To use these, you need to first install the free version of Unity 5 (Unity 4.x PRO should also work). Once you have this installed, you need to import the ConvoyEditor + steam.unitypackage file found in game's root folder. Refer to the included documentation for further instructions on how to use the tools and upload mods to the workshop. Additionally, we added 30 new scenarios to the game, including a new main objective! Full changelog: Added:
Hey everyone, We've just uploaded the first test version of the Linux build! Aside from platform, it is identical to the current Win/Mac versions of the game. We've done some internal testing and everything seems to work as intended, however we still feel like we should put it through some field tests before we announce the official release. To be able to install and play the Linux version, you'll need to select the "Linux_Test" branch under "beta" in the Steam properties. We'd love to hear your feedback, and of course tell us any issues you may have!
Hey y'all, we have another update! We've been focusing on getting the ground work done for the DRM-free version, which should (hopefully) launch together with the Linux version later this month. So this time there are no big changes or new content, just a bunch of fixes. Added:

This change should not break older savegames!
Here's a quick hotfix for update 1.0.5! Fixed:
We have another update for you guys! Update 1.0.4 was in Beta for a while, but it did not solve all the issues some people had. It also introduced a few new bugs. We decided not to put that build live, and instead focus on fixing all the issues. This means the new version is 1.0.5! It's got quite a few fixes and changes, and some new content in the form of a few new scenarios and some unique units! Added:
And another update! This time a lot of fixes, and a new unlock! Added:
In this update we have (hopefully) resolved several performance and crash issues people experienced. We've also added a new achievement and unlock that everyone should be able to get, as well as reduced general difficulty and frustrations people experienced, and generally made the game more forgiving on easy difficulty. Added:
We have a small update with some fixes for issues people were experiencing. Changed:
We’re happy to announce Convoy will be available from tomorrow, April 21, 2015 @ 15.00CET (6AM PST)! When we started working on Convoy in the summer of 2013, we never dreamed of reaching the point where we are now. The enthusiasm we met during and since the Kickstarter campaign last November utterly blew us away. We can’t thank you enough for your support! Though we hoped to release it earlier, we believe the decision to delay it by a few months was the right one. The game really has come a long way! To make sure Convoy has the best launch possible, we'd love it if you could tweet, post, share, and tell your friends about Convoy! Thank you all for your support!
Day -1 patch? Yes! This mostly contains small fixes. We've also added another achievement! Changelog: Added:
This is it! We've made a few more adjustments since 0.9.7, and made sure it works properly. Unless there are any new issues, this will be the version everyone gets to play on Tuesday! Changelog: Added:
Edit: And for some reason, our builds never seem to work on the first try any more... So for now we've reverted to the old build while we're working on a fix! Another update with more fixes, balance changes and other stuff. This will likely be the last version before 1.0! Aside from gameplay changes and fixes, in this build we've significaltly reduced the game's total size. Where it previously was around 2.1GB, the current build is around 1.4GB. We'd hoped to be able to reduce it even further, but are still happy with the result! Again, we'd love to hear your feedback! Changelog: Added:
