Oddworld Soulstorm received a small patch a few days ago. Patch 1.19 fixed several bugs including the ones related to dialogues and voiceovers. Toby’s scream bug that occurred on Toby’s Escape level is now fixed.
From now on, Sligs will stop giving unnecessary commands. Localization of Czech, Polish and Chinese languages are updated and the bug where two achievements on Xbox consoles won’t unlock has been addressed. A couple of crashing issues are squashed as well. You can read the patch notes below.
- Voice Over on Summary Screens in Toby’s Escape now works as expected
- Improved timing of intro dialogue in Toby’s Escape
- Added occasional lines of dialogue to death/respawn events in Toby’s Escape
- Fixed Toby’s scream as he fell to his death in one level
- Fixes for Test Subjects in Vykkers Labs that sounded too like Abe at times
- Fixed an issue where Test Subjects in Vykkers Labs could disappear, rather than being electrocuted properly like Mudokons should be
- Fixed a crash bug some Xbox users saw before Phat Station (in previous hotfix on that platform)
- Fixes for two achievements that didn’t unlock on Xbox consoles (“Whose side are you on?” and “As it was foretold”)
- Fixed an issue where chanting could turn on additional post-processing in certain situations
- Removed some totally unnecessary commands that some Sligs were giving
- Fixed an issue that wasn’t counting fall deaths in the Streamer Mode overlay
- Fixed an issue in one location where Mudokons could teleport directly to Abe if called
- Fixed an issue where Abe would scream indefinitely after a small fall, even though we liked it
- Updates to localizations in Czech, Polish and Chinese
- Numerous other minor fixes on all platforms
The patch notes are available on the official site.
