Some spelling changes. More changes to Skipnoise Ave to maybe make it load faster? And. We may have solved the audio problem but I'm not sure. If someone who has the audio problem can let me know if it sounds any different, or equally as important, if it Doesnt, that would be dope. Enjoy the build!

Here's what we've got for the 1.04 update: I added an option that will appear when you launch the game on windows . It will allow you to use OpenGL instead of vulcan and your rendering driver. If you've been experiencing those weird missing background arts, try the OpenGL option. Otherwise, proceed with the default. The OpenGL mode messed up one of the shaders in the game, but I added a thing that should disable that shader if you're using OpenGL. If anyone sees anything they suspect is a visual glitches on OpenGL mode, lemme know. We also have some other simpler changes:

• Slight update to the background art in the hover cafe.
• Drink-making guide added the the hover cafe, appears After cafe tutorial is completed.
• Fixed invisible back button in Sal's room.
• Heather 13 is no longer flagged as explicit.
• Heather 6 no longer displays incorrect background at the end of the scene.
• and finally:
• I think I may have improved load times when entering Skipnoise Ave, but I'm not completely sure.

Fixed some settings menu behavior. Now if you're in controller mode and the menu detects mouse movement, it will show the mouse. Useful because some people seem to be automatically entering controller mode, which disables camera movement without a keyboard or controller. Also fixed a soft lock condition when the settings menu is exiting in the main menu while in controller mode. Also, the pan speed slider now actually does something. We also did some spelling fixes and corrected a half-pixel incorrect positioning of neck-slot items in the dress up system.

Ok here's what we've got. Fixed a bug where the art was missing from the EM Driver scene in HC's appartment. But more importantly: I changed it so that the windows version of Hardcoded is no longer a PCK embedded exe. It is now an exe with a separate PCK. I'm hoping that this will solve the problem of the game not launching for some people on windows. If not, I will figure out how to do code signing. Let me know if this works!
