[Game Update] - 346255

Bug Fixes:

[ 2019-06-25 17:37:14 CET ] [ Original post ]

We've added a new Performance setting in Settings called Dynamic Asset Loading. It saves memory by loading certain data as needed, and unloading it when its not used for a while. Like most optimizations theres a trade-off - while the dynamic loading decreases memory usage significantly it also means the game has to load assets in the background - depending on your hardware this may be noticeable. The game needs a restart for any change to the asset loading to take effect.

A great big thank you to everyone who participated during our Early Access period. The Dont Starve community is one of the best to interact with, so full of passion and enthusiasm for all things in the Constant. We have thoroughly enjoyed the journey with you, dropping Wilson and his friends into this world of civilized pigs and dangerous jungles. As we come out of Early Access, all of the features tested in the beta branch will of course go live for everybody, including player craftable doors, the new Ancient Hulk giant, Wheeler and Wagstaff. The beta branch will still be accessible for a while, but we wont be updating it anymore. As a special thank you to all of the Dont Starve players and fans, Wagstaff has been made available to everyone who has the base game and is not exclusive to the Hamlet DLC.
Now that early access has finished, there are no plans for new features to Hamlet yet, but we will still be putting out updates of bug fixes as they are made. After you have mastered the mountain top plateau, if you are looking for further Dont Starve challenges, please check in with Dont Starve Together as there are some old faces being re-made as well some altogether new ones showing up.

Patch Notes:

New Features:

• Wheeler added to Hamlet DLC.
• Ancient Hulk added to Hamlet DLC.
• New rooms and doors added to the renovation crafting tab.
• Wagstaff added to all versions.

Bug Fixes:

• Wagstaff doesn't announce when another creature puts on one of his goggles
• Don't activate the color change when another creature puts on the Fryfocals
• Disable map when Living Artifact is active
• Fixed a crash when playing adventure mode as Wagstaff and reaching the final chapter
• Fixed player telelocating into interiors.
• Fixed Depth Worm inspect quotes
• Fixed issue in interiors that could result in two rooms occupying the same location*
• Wheeler will no longer get stuck in God Mode after Dodging
• Fixed a crash when players click an empty Trusty Shooter slot
• Miscellaneous tunings on the Aporkalypse

*The bugfix in the player interiors needed a fixup that in case of detected errors will relocate the offending rooms and removes any doors that connected to the offending rooms - the player is reimbursed the cost of the doors. If you notice missing doors in your house, this is why.

Greetings Survivors! Were close to releasing Hamlet from Early Access. As we said in a recent roadmap post, we have been working on two new characters plus a new giant to battle with. Actually, we would like to have those tested a bit. So, once more, we invite you to the interior beta branch, this time to meet the newest guests of the Constant: Wagstaff and Wheeler. But with light comes shadow. An ancient and terrible metal hulk lies waiting to be discovered. A lonely sentinel still stuck in a long forgotten war. A big thank you to everyone who has tried out the beta branch so far. As always youve been tremendously helpful. There are still some issues with the interiors, particularly when used in worlds other than Hamlet, and we will be working to fix those up before we move everything to the main branch. Were planning to go live with Hamlet 1.0 on May 14th. To access the beta branch:

• Go to the BETAS tab in the Dont Starve Properties dialogue.
• Enter the code: dsinteriorbeta and press the CHECK CODE button.
• Select hamet_interors - Hamlet Interior upgrade beta from the drop down.
• Your game will then update to the new beta branch.

This branch uses separate save files from your regular base game. You can make a copy of your base game save files in the beta branch by using the console command: TheSim:ImportSave() Your save files will remain unchanged in your regular branch. You can return to the regular branch by going to the same BETAS tab and selecting the drop down: NONE - Opt out of all beta programs.

[ 2019-04-18 19:21:58 CET ] [ Original post ]

Latest patch here with an invitation to beta test some new features. Weve been working on improving performance and have a few changes that should make things better. This should particularly help with severe lag in interiors. But some of the backend changes are larger than we are comfortable to just deploy. We have set up a beta branch that people can go to and help us test out the changes. An added benefit of some of the changes, is that the interior system has opened up to the other worlds, not just Hamlet worlds. So if you bring the Key to the City, you can build a pig city in the forest or even on a tropical island. Im sure theres some interactions with all this stuff we havent predicted yet, so having some more people playing with it will be helpful. Weve also put player craftable doors in the home decor tab. Once youve build a door in your house, you can use a Construction Permit on it to create an attached room. To access the beta branch:

• Go to the BETAS tab in the Dont Starve Properties dialogue.
• Enter the code: dsinteriorbeta and press the CHECK CODE button.
• Select hamet_interors - Hamlet Interior upgrade beta from the drop down.
• Your game will then update to the new beta branch.

This branch uses separate save files from your regular base game. You can make a copy of your base game save files in the beta branch by using the console command: TheSim:ImportSave() Your save files will remain unchanged in your regular branch. You can return to the regular branch by going to the same BETAS tab and selecting the drop down: NONE - Opt out of all beta programs. Thank you in advance for everyone who heads in there to play. We plan to run the beta for 2 weeks if everything runs as planned.

Hey everyone! We've been very grateful for everyone's feedback on Hamlet's Early Access. Thanks again for all the time and effort youve spent writing your thoughts, opinions and bug reports. This is our roadmap for Hamlet, which we anticipate to last until April:

Enhanced Seasons and Content

Were going to be adding more to the seasons, adding new perks and challenges alike. Expect to see more content in every season, as well as a new boss creature. Well also be implementing multi-roomed homes, allowing players to build more elaborate abodes to stay in. We expect this content to be launched in phases throughout March.

New Characters

Beyond Wilba and Wormwood, we will be adding two more characters to the cast: a globetrotting adventurer lost and alone, and a mysterious inventor who finds himself exactly where he wanted to be... We also felt its been awhile since we added a new character for all our base game fans, so one of these characters will be free to all Dont Starve owners!
These new characters will be launching with the release of Hamlet in April.

Bug fixes, tuning, and optimization

As usual, we will be working on a lot of bug fixes, tuning and optimization. We know that some of you have been experiencing performance issues in particular, and were working hard to solve as many of those as we can. And with that, we will have completed our third expansion to Dont Starve. Thanks again for playing the Hamlet Early Access! Its much appreciated.

The Character Update is now live! This update focuses on making our new Hamlet characters more interesting for you to play, particularly when playing outside of the Hamlet world. Wilba has inherited one of her father's more colourful characteristics, namely, she now carries the same curse that inflicts all of her father's family with dreaded werepigism. Also, all of pigkind from Hamlet's town pigs to those of ROG will now recognize her as the king's daughter, and pay her tribute in the form of gifts. We weren't very happy with how Warbucks was working out. While trying to find ways to make him work, we decided that he just wasn't as interesting as we would like, and so we've made the decision to start from scratch. You can still continue your Warbucks saves as his files will not be removed from the game, but he will no longer be in the official lineup of starting characters. Instead, we would like to introduce to you our new character, Wormwood! Who knows where this creature of nature came from, but he'll likely grow on you. Thank you for playing, and we look forward to hearing your feedback!

[img=https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/963108520791749808/78603938CAA3436099218FD00F351C86DCE2A212/] Welcome to 2019 everyone! We start the new year with an update that brings several nice and fun features from Don't Starve Together to regular Don't Starve. These additions were added to the base game and all DLCs.

• Beefalo taming and riding (Saddles, Brush, Saddlehorn)
• The Ewecus (for Steel Wool)
• Fences (Gates and Walls)
• Bundles (and Wax Paper and Bee's Wax)
• Mini signs (and the Feather Pen for writing)
• Action Key ability while holding an item on your cursor
• Trap pickup using the action key

Along with these additions, the artists took some time to do a visual color pass of Hamlet. Some changes are larger than others, like seasonal tints and the new background color, and others are smaller, like the claw palm leaf color. As well, controller support was improved when interacting with interiors and interior decorating.

What's Next?

We would like to revisit Warbucks and Wilba. We think both characters could be improved so that they are more interesting to play outside of Hamlet. Watch for the new and improved Wilba and Warbucks as they try to stick to their new years resolutions to become better rounded on Feb 7th.

[ 2019-01-09 00:35:27 CET ] [ Original post ]

Originally posted on the official forums. The Aporkalypse is here. The pre modern pigs saw it coming, did the math and put the date on a calendar. Oh look, its this year. What can be done! Theres also a couple of other fun stuff added to the world. Pigs now have a place they can do some money exchange, and a new magic recipe that captures the energies of the Pugalisk has been discovered. The new content will be best experienced with a new world as there are some world gen changes for them. So we recommend starting a fresh world to experience them. Whats Next In a recent update we noted that we wanted to continue the Early Access until we felt the bugs and performance were improved. There have been several improvements to the performance, but there are still some areas we are investigating to help that. We continue to work through the bug reports both on the forums and submitted through the game. We have also decided there are a few more updates of things wed like to put out before were done. So Early Access will be continuing until about April of 2019. The next is an improvement in the Quality of Life for DS players. We will focus on bringing a bunch of the improvements that have gone into DST over to single player. Watch for the QOL update on Dec 20th.

Update Notes: 298452

Originally posted on the official forums. Hi everyone! We want to thank you all for all of your continued feedback and bug reports. Were still busy here squashing bugs (Hamlet has a lot of insects afterall) and summoning up the Aporkalypse. We still have some balance changes and a bit more new content we want to get together before we feel the game is ready to leave Early Access. To that end, we feel that Dec 6th will be too soon for us to have had a good chance to tune the performance and make sure everything is in and ready for launch. The Aporkalypse will still be arriving on Dec. 6th, but we have some things we want to get done before were ready to leave Early Access. If you are waiting for launch to play to have the most stable experience, we thank you for your patience and ask for a little bit more. We will make another announcement when we have a more final launch date.

Balance Changes

• Stolen items dont get replaced.

Bug Fixes

• Bandit camp drops a peagawk feather, not bone shards now
• Mole hat works better indoors during the day
• Nettle plant should naturally bloom more consistently during the humid season
• Fixed a possible avenue that the roc can fail to grab the player, leaving them cowering.
• Fixed the disappearing shopkeeper desks.
• Fixed the problem of Ro-bin eggs incubating inside containers and on shelves.
• Fix for potential crash when entering the players own house
• Exiting a burning house should not send the player off to the middle of nowhere anymore
• Fixed the memory leak with the sprinkler

Cause we could and it was asked for a long time.

• You can craft beard hair rug from beard hair and grass. (You know, in case you like pixel art and need black lines.)

Well, here we are! Today we launched Don't Starve: Hamlet into Early Access. Like our previous DLC for Don't Starve we will be using this time with Hamlet to gather feedback and put the finishing touches on the game. With the launch of Early Access we introduce Wilba and Roc:

• Wilba:Daughter to Queen Malfalfa, Princess Wilba has the love of her people. If only she wanted the job. She would much rather be out in the world exploring and soaking up life, even if she still requires a nightlight when she gets tucked in.
• ROC:There's something that moves above the clouds. No one talks about it. No one answers questions about it. Maybe that's cause they are just pigs. But it seems pretty freaking big. Was that just your echo? or the lonely cry of 500 tonnes of bird?

Head over here for a full list of update notes.

What happens next?

Between November the 8th and the launch currently planned for December, we will continue with more content and bug fix updates and prepare for the coming Aporkalypse. Once again, thanks everybody for your support. Please enjoy Hamlet and keep sending us your suggestions and feedback! https://store.steampowered.com/app/712640/Dont_Starve_Hamlet/

Originally posted by Bigfoot on the official forums. Hello everybody, First of all, a HUGE thanks to everybody participating in the beta right now. We have got so much feedback from you all (almost 12,000 of you!), it's really helped to energize the team and we're all super excited to launch Don't Starve: Hamlet in December. Here is an update of our plans for Hamlet:

• As planned, the Beta phase of Hamlet ends today.
• As a thanks for all your outstanding feedback, all current beta testers will get to keep the game, for free. Thanks for signing up and helping out, you all really knocked it out of the park, and it's very much appreciated.
• The price of Hamlet is going to be $6.99. We feel the amount of content that Hamlet has is worth a slightly higher price; we hope you agree! Players will also be able to purchase the new Megapack Plus, which is 33% off all the Dont Starve franchise content, and you can complete the bundle and only purchase the part you do not currently own.
• Weve received a lot of feedback that players want access to the game before December, and that it feels ready to play now. The team isnt quite ready to call it out of Beta right now, so were going to fix a few more bugs, balance the game, introduce Wilba & the Roc, then launch it in Early Access on November 8.
• Between November the 8th and launch, we will continue with more content and bug fix updates and prepare for the coming Aporkalypse.

Once again, thanks everybody for another great round of beta!

Hello everyone! We’ve been a bit quiet about Don’t Starve in the last few months, but we’ve been hard at work. Today I’d like to announce a few new things that we’ve been working on:

Don’t Starve: Hamlet

The first thing to announce is that we’ve been working on another Don’t Starve singleplayer DLC! Wilson has found the portal to the origins of the Pigmen, and he’s off to explore their civilization. There may be some bushwhacking and tomb raiding involved, too. Hamlet will be available in Q1/Q2 2018. More information will be shown as we get closer to launch. You can check out the store page for screenshots and wishlist it here. http://store.steampowered.com/app/712640/Dont_Starve_Hamlet

Don’t Starve: Shipwrecked Content Update

We have a little surprise for you: Shipwrecked is getting more content! We have added the following to the game as a free update. In order to test these changes, we’ve put it into a Steam branch called “beta” with the password “shipwreckedbeta”, which is available now. Here are instructions on how to access the beta: http://support.kleientertainment.com/customer/portal/articles/2873712 World

• Crockodogs. Will hound you at land and sea.
• Ballphin followers and the Ballphin Den.
• Roe. New food item. Stocks the fish farm.
• Cormorants. New sea bird. Source of Roe.
• Tar Slick. Pools of crude oil bubbling on the surface of the water.
• Tar. New resource.
• 3 new variety of tropical fish.

• Coral Nubbin. Replant coral after it's mined.

Don’t Starve Together: The Forge

In addition to the singleplayer DLC, we are also announcing that we are working on a series of events for Don’t Starve Together. DST events are limited-time play modes that create a new way to play with the cast of Don’t Starve. They serve as a way to mix up the experience, allowing us to try crazy new things without breaking the core game. Events are free for everyone who owns DST to play and will be coming in November. With the Ancient Gateway activated our survivors now find themselves trapped in a hostile world of fire and battle. They’ll need to team up to defeat the Battlemaster’s army and his champion, the Grand Forge Boarrior, if they have any hopes of returning home. Here’s what’s in store in Don’t Starve’s first event, The Forge:

• 6-player co-op challenge, where the goal is to try and defeat the Grand Forge Boarrior in an arena. The only way to survive will be to work together.
• New creatures and bosses with their own attack patterns.
• New character traits for all characters, each with their own bonuses during combat.
• New weapons, armor, items, and combat abilities to help you survive the onslaught.

[img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/DST/combo.gif] Players who participate in the event will also be eligible to earn event specific skins. For the skin system, we are doing several changes:

• Far more skins will drop for players than ever before (by a factor of 4x or more!)
• There’s a new trader in town! If you get duplicates, you will be able to break them down to scrap and craft them into event items.
• The event features event-time skin drops, including the Warrior Skin Set, putting each character in grizzled gladiator-wear.
• In addition to the chance of receiving them as drops, players will have the option to purchase a single character’s Warrior Skin Set for $2.99, or the entire Warrior Skin Set collection for $12.99.
• The nature of the skins themselves will not change, they are still purely cosmetic and optional. However, purchase of the Warrior Set will help us fund further content and events like this one.
• We hope that with this mechanism, we can both continue creating great free content while also supporting the development team. In addition, this method of funding allows us to provide content to all our players, instead of splitting the player community if we implemented it with a DLC paywall.

This is just the first of many experiments we intend to run, and we would love your feedback! We have many ideas for events, and we would love to know what you would liketo see. 

And more!

Besides events, we will also continue working on Quality of Life improvements and bug fixes.  And finally, a new challenger has arrived in Don’t Starve Together, and she is coming to all platforms and is available on Steam now! [img=https://cdn.forums.klei.com/DST/winona_portrait-250px.png] Armed with her indomitable spirit and trusty mending tape, Winona seems to have been plucked straight off the factory line and dropped into the world of Don’t Starve for something or someone’s unfathomable amusement. There may be more to her arrival than it appears, however, as more than a few eyes will be watching the next move of the newest survivor… Whew, that’s it! Once again, thank you for your support of our games! 

F.A.Q.

When is Hamlet coming? We estimate Q1/Q2 next year, but as always, we’ll keep working until we feel it’s ready! Why not sell DLC for Don’t Starve Together instead of skins? DST is a multiplayer game, and we decided that we want everyone to be able to play, instead of splitting the community. We hope that in this way, we can continue to develop updates for the game while allowing everyone to enjoy it. When is The Forge being released? We are aiming to release it this November. Are the events coming to console? The events are going to launch first on PC, but we are looking into bringing them to other platforms at a later date.

Update 193934 Information:

Hey Starvers, Another bugfix patch for Shipwrecked! Awesome! This time we were focused on performance improvements, especially in Shipwrecked worlds. Take 'er for a spin, feel the speed! We also fixed up some lingering world merging/world travel issues, and we believe we've fixed the issues people were having with steam cloud saving failing to save at all (this resulted in things like caves being regenerated every time you tried to leave).

Change List:

Changes:

• Lots of performance improvements! The main areas that have been improved are: - Gameplay slowing down as the world is explored. - Gameplay slowing down after a long play session. - Performance during wind storms. - Certain creatures brains when they are stuck behind walls. - Monkeys. Oh the monkeys.

Bug Fixes:

• Fix crash when an object blowing in wind leaves the screen.
• Hounds progress is correctly synchronized between worlds -- no more hound attacks every time you use the Seaworthy! Now, hounds "progress" is shared across worlds.
• Volcano/appeasement is correctly synchronized between worlds.
• Eyebone/Fishbone is properly ejected from backpacks when using seaworthy.
• Altered some Steam Cloud settings to prevent caves from continuously regenerating and progress from being lost.
• ROG toggle works properly in shipwrecked-compatible slots. This includes: Starting a new Vanilla or ROG slot w/ SW compatibility, connecting SW to an existing Vanilla or ROG slot, and making a new Vanilla or ROG world using the Seaworthy.
• Goose Egg/Goose Egg no longer disappear shortly after appearing.

[ 2016-10-20 21:47:19 CET ] [ Original post ]

Update Information:

Hey Starvers, It's been a little bit since the last update but we've fixed a bunch more issues! In particular, we looked closely at a lot of problems that were arising around linking and travelling between different maps. This has been cleaned up and stabilized so many related issues will have gone away. But as with all big changes, new issues may have appeared or we may have missed a detail, so don't hesitate to post in this thread if you notice anything screwey. (Part of these changes included some tweaks to the way the "Days Survived" count works, see the full patch notes for details.) Thanks for all your bug reports and logs and save files! It's been invaluable.

Change List:

Changes

• In Shipwrecked-compatible games, especially once they've been merged, the clock now shows the age of the world you are in -- hover with your mouse or pause to see which world it is, either Survival or Shipwrecked. The age of the player is now shown on the pause screen, and includes the player's lifetime across uses of the teleportato, i.e. the total number of days you've survived consecutively.

Bug Fixes

• Numerous fixes related to synchronizing time between worlds. Note: If your worlds have already gone out of sync, they will remain out of sync, but won't get any worse. This will prevent issues such as: - Entering the caves in one season and coming back in another. - Volcano taking ages to load. - All your food rotting in your pockets when you travel between worlds. - And of course, the clocks getting out of sync!
• Backpack Inventory nesting bug fixed in Shipwrecked
• Placed items that are guaranteed won't spawn unless needed (Warly's cookpot)
• Time of day effects (e.g. darkness) will sync properly when travelling between worlds.
• Floral Shirts now require cactus flowers in ROG and vanilla worlds whether they are shipwrecked compatible or not.
• Willow won’t be frozen by the flingomatic now, like the other characters.
• Beardlords won’t occasionally drop regular bunnyman loot now
• Shark Tooth Crown will now perish when its durability is lost
• Fix getting stuck on a black screen occasionally when loading a game. This happens because the character died for some reason, so save games suffering from this will either be concluded or end up at a resurrection stone/statue.
• When you die in a merged or teleportato'd world, you get XP based on the character age, not the world age.
• Terraformed beach tiles will now be tideable.
• Planted turf will now block tide so long as it’s dry.
• Caves and Volcanoes are merged over as well when merging a Survival world with a Shipwrecked world.
• Survival worlds now correctly retain their RoG or Vanilla season data when merging with a Shipwrecked world.
• Fixes a save file corruption caused by inventory stack sizes that go below one.

HOTFIX 193234 - 10/14/2016

• Fix crash when you use the pitchfork on a non Shipwrecked map.

[ 2016-10-14 22:56:38 CET ] [ Original post ]

Update Information:

Another small patch to fix up some things.

Change List:

Bug Fixes

• Packim’s fire form will shoot at targets as intended.
• Coffee Plants won’t be targeted by flingomatics now.
• Only shipwrecked character’s uncraftable items are guaranteed when loading or starting a world, which means only Warly’s cookpot.
• Fixed save files being created for each day in game.
• Contents of boats that are hammered or destroyed will spill out and not be lost.
• Land traps won’t function on water and can’t be baited on water

[ 2016-09-20 19:43:37 CET ] [ Original post ]

190428 - 9/16/2016

Update Information:

This is a short list of bug patches mainly for putting out the fix for the RemoveHerd() function crash that is affecting a number of folks.

Change List:

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed the “RemoveHerd” crash.
• Seagulls won’t spawn on land during monsoon season when set to “none” at world gen.
• Fixed a potential crash when testing if something not in the world is on water.
• Shipwrecked character’s specific items are guaranteed so they will appear when using the teleportato
• Fixed a crash with the wake spawner.
• Cleaned up a “stale component” message in the log when exiting a boat
• Fixed a bug with the wave collision calculation that would cause collisions when it shouldn’t
• Fixed a graphic bug with ash.

There are a number of different entries on the bug tracker at the moment that are most likely caused the same bug. There are some inconsistencies in the way time is processed when entering and leaving places like the Volcano. It touches a lot of places in the code, so it's a trickier problem to solve, but hopefully when it's done, quite a few of the problems that people have reported will clear up. As always if you run across a bug, please hit up our bug tracker here: http://forums.kleientertainment.com/forum/17-dont-starve-bug-tracker/

[ 2016-02-06 07:59:44 CET ] [ Original post ]

Additions General

• World integration implemented.
  • This feature definitely needs testing! Due to the fact that it plays with your save files I recommend not linking any worlds that you have invested a lot of time in right now!
• Added Linux support.

World

• You can now climb the volcano.

Player

• New playable character: Wilbur
  • You will need to generate a new world to find Wilbur.

Creatures

• Added Sealnado
• Added Dragoons

Items

• New “Volcanic” crafting tab & related items.
• Snakeskin flooring
• Buoys
• Iron Wind

Changes General 

• Putting down flooring now prevents floods from spawning on that tile.
• Speed increasing items now work while on boats.
• Adjusted some strings for clarity.

World 

• Limpet rocks will become withered in dry season, need to be fertilized with seaweed.
• Added timer to limit growth rate of floods, especially when returning to an area after quite some time.

Items

• Completely re-designed obsidian tools.
• Cookpot ingredient changes - meat component was removed from limpets, mussels, fish morsel and fish value reduced from 1 to .5
• Increased hunger value of California Roll.
• Coconuts must be opened with a machete to become edible.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed typo that caused food sanity multiplier to not work.
• Fixed hitsounds for new armour types.
• Fixed bug where the incorrect shadow skittish would spawn on water.
• Fixed a bug that allowed waves to sometimes spawn on ground.
• Fixed a bug that caused some items to disappear when jumping on a boat.
• Life giving amulet now works while on a boat.

• Players are now presented with a character select screen when traveling between shipwrecked worlds with the teleportato.
• Jellyfish, Fish and Small Fish no longer disappear from meat racks on game reload.
• Fixed a bug that caused the Tigershark to sometimes get stuck in an infinite loop.

  How do I integrate an old save with a Shipwrecked world? As of this update, this is possible! But the feature needs testing, and bugs certainly DO exist within this system. For this reason I recommend not linking any worlds that you are overly attached to. It is possible that the save file will be corrupted and the world lost.

• Find the “Seaworthy” in your shipwrecked world and use it.
• Select the world you wish to link* to, or select generate new world.
  • Your worlds are now linked together! Yay! For now, you can revert to the previous state when selecting this world in the future.
• To travel back to your shipwrecked world you must craft a new “Seaworthy” in the RoG/ Vanilla world. You will find it in the Magic tab.

*Linking worlds works best with RoG worlds. Vanilla worlds will link, but there will be some side effects like having the 4 RoG seasons with no way to deal with these season. This is still being worked on.

[ 2015-12-03 00:23:47 CET ] [ Original post ]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqjiUZBL6p4 We just launched Don't Starve Shipwrecked on Steam and buoy are our merms tired! It's been a long time coming and here we are! While Don't Starve Together was still just a twinkle in Wilson's eye, our friends at Capy have been quietly plugging away at Shipwrecked with us for quite some time now. We’re all excited for you to come aboard; but first we wanted give you some quick details. We've decided to release Shipwrecked in Early-Access because similar to the Reign of Giants expansion before it; Shipwrecked is a substantial amount of content. In fact, much larger. With new characters, biomes, items, creatures,recipes and water exploration; just about everything in Don't Starve Shipwrecked is new. However, we still have a little further to go; but first, we want to get your feedback about the game. Like Don't Starve, Reign of Giants and Don't Starve Together, it's important for us to really get a feel for what you think so we can adjust and adapt to your feedback. You should have a good, solid game in it’s current state; a great experience on it’s own. Not everything is quite sea-worthy yet. As mentioned, the game is fully playable and nearly complete, but the new playable characters are still to come, as well as the "boss encounters” and some other cool things we have planned. Since we need to get a better sense of balance and feedback, we want to get everything in a good place before we get those in for official launch. As many of you know, originally Don't Starve: Shipwrecked was originally being designed a standalone DLC completely separate from Don't Starve and players would not be able to move between Shipwrecked and the original game. Due to community response we have since changed course and we are now steering the ship toward integrating the experience so that you may move between worlds! This is still in the works and will not be immediately available and will likely be in a version closer to launch. We are certainly going to want to test this before the final launch version, so expect integration to come a few updates before final version sets sail. This is going to take a bit of time though, so we will need to tread water for a little while as we get that in order, but we'll let you know the progress on this before we pull up anchor. We're not going to give an official date for the final launch of the game at this time. Frankly we tend to add in more new cool stuff that we didn't consider before your feedback, and since our priority is always having the best launch-ready game possible; we often choose to add more stuff rather than push things out just to hit a deadline. We are aiming for Spring 2016; but, that's mostly so we have something to aim for. In the end it's really just going to be when it's ready. We're going to try; but we care about delivering what we promised much more than hitting a date. We don’t consider a game ready when it’s “done”; we consider it “done” when it’s ready. If you don't enjoy sailing into the uncharted territory of early-access, you might want to consider waiting until we launch the game fully before you dive in. As we are aft to do, we will be hanging out here on the forums, lurking in streams and watching YouTube videos trawling for feedback and bug reports. All ashore that's going ashore! Klei Entertainment & Capy   FAQ   What platforms is early access available on? Early access is available on Windows through Steam.   I use Mac/ Linux. Can I participate in early access? Mac & Linux will not be supported for the initial December 1st launch.   I don’t use Steam. Can I still play during the early access period? No. However, the final release of the game will be available for the standalone client.   Can I play Reign of Giants and Shipwrecked at the same time? Yes, but not during early access. We're working on implementing this in a style similar to entering caves but it's not ready yet!   What is Don’t Starve: Shipwrecked? Shipwrecked is an expansion for Don’t Starve. Wilson finds himself stranded in a tropical archipelago and must struggle to survive in this new world! Shipwrecked is being developed by CAPY and Klei Entertainment.   Do I need Reign of Giants? No. Shipwrecked is compatible with and without Reign of Giants.   Will Shipwrecked work with DST? An awesome idea, but right now Shipwrecked is single player only.   Is Shipwrecked coming to consoles/ mobile? We’d love to, but right now we’re focused on making the PC version as good as it can be. http://store.steampowered.com/app/393010
