Unreal Engine Wicked Island [Build 20440670] [RawDarkness]
- Thread starter Jeevant
- Start date
Iron ore can be bought from the blacksmith in the town or can be mine on the north end of the island amongst the trees. It looks like a rock with a black steak on it. Probably not the best description, but hopefully that will help.
This might help. https://f95zone.to/threads/wicked-island-v0-8-4-7-rawdarkness.118878/post-12926494
There is a map attached to that post that marks the locations of various things in the game. There is a whole lot of rambling, by me, about tips and things to do and at the bottom is a map with a few things marked on it that might be helpful.
PS: The iron ore nodes look like dark grey rocks with black streaks on it. There is a lot of iron nodes on the northern part of the map, mostly in the forested area, if you see wolves hanging around in a area, you can usually find iron nodes to mine.

Doesn't seem like there would really be much need for one since the map is pretty small and you can just make your way to any particular "scenes" you'd like to see. I do think they could use some polish though for sure. They look great starting off but the physics is kinda wonky. Its a one man team though so that considered, I think he's done great.
I updated the game, and I get a message saying my display driver is outdated and gives me the minimum supported version. I didn't have this problem with older versions of the game.

I noticed that entering the dungeon on the Dragon Isle will make your house and everything in it despawn and fall through the map. Does the dev know about this? I've lost 2 houses now going in that place, I wasn't sure the first time so had to double check.
Wow. That really sucks, dude. I am pretty sure that the Dev is aware of things like that and he has been working on it, tweaking things here and there, maybe he will have a fix in the next version they put out.
If you haven't done it yet, the only thing I can suggest is to try deleting the WickedIsland save folder and starting a new game. In Appdata\local, just delete (or rename) the WickedIsland folder and start the game again.
It MIGHT help, but no guarantees.

Meh, its not too much of a loss. Few hours of time. I've finally figured out where most of the stuff I need is to progress so starting over again isn't all that time consuming, the only real loss is the levels but thats not a big deal. I'll just wait till a new version comes out and try again
Anyone have the same issue with quests getting stuck ?
For example the starting quests get kinda stuck if you save and close the game after that its stuck and wont continue for example with crafting an building plan.
So does saving corrupt the game or whats the issue ?

Been a few months since the last update (no matter how small). Can't tell if the developer lost the passion for the project or the next update will have some major changes and fixes.

Since the save system has been plauged with issues from the start, im reworking it completly. Downside of that is that until that is done, a build cant really be shipped as the game is in a broken state without saving/loading. The save system also touches every aspect of the game so it has become a bit of a ripple effect where lots of old "legacy" code has been rewritten as part of making them work with the new save system.
These are the main reasons for the delayed update, but im working on it and have the major points of it functional, now i need to find and fix all the small issues that always arise when poking around too much in code.
In addition to the save revamp, there is several new systems coming as well such as an activity based skill system (think morrowind style), randomized enemy stats, traits and appearances (for future breeding to maximize stats), a new taming system to gain followers, farming and lots of performance optimizations.
That's good the save system is getting fixed. Every time I have tried a new build I usually quit after something went wrong with it. Other stuff sounds interesting too. Glad the game isn't abandoned.

I don't know honestly, it depends on how many minor bugs i find.
Somewhere between weeks and months probably, but i would love to be wrong and have it be days

Bit of an update on performance optimizations, mainly for those with lower end systems.
Mostly doing bugfixing currently, which is boring to post about. However I did get some nice results on the optimization front i can show off.
Running everything on lowest settings on the current version 0.8.4.7 i got around 15 fps on my test system (GTX 1050 , 16gb ram, i7-7700HQ), running at 1080 resolution.
After optimizations in the current build, which also includes adding AMD FSR and defaulting to frame generation being enabled, i get around 25 fps on the same scene.
It also looks slightly better visually (imo).
These performance increases wont affect all systems equally but probably benefit low end systems the most.
With FSR frame generation can now be use for all systems, not only Nvidia 4xxx series cards, which should boost most systems a fair bit.
