Valheim just got a little bit better thanks to an update released yesterday. Patch 0.214.300 brought many technical fixes, though it had no new content. Still, these fixes are very much appreciated. The game’s engine version is updated to 2020.03.45, with the performance of the main menu improved.
The left-handed mouse now works as intended, and keybindings should now save correctly. The glowing issue on the text on signs has been addressed as well. Check out the other fixes and improvements below.
Fixes and Improvements
- Manual save no longer causes you to respawn where you saved and can be called to a dedicated server if you are on the admin list
- Left handed mouse should now work correctly again
- Added “Swap Triggers” to control options, to be able to fix a potential issue for PlayStation controllers
- Fixed performance issues in main menu
- Fixed some special characters appearing as squares and symbols should look more like they did before
- Hovertext and text input on signs should now be displayed correctly and can use t and n symbols
- Text on signs should now be lit correctly and no lower glow
- Various UI & text fixes that were being displayed incorrectly
- Fixed an issue where the scrolling was slow and inverted on linux
- Engine updated to unity version 2020.03.45
- Settings for keybindings should now be saved correctly
Console
- Added graphic setting “Balanced Mode” with 40 FPS and 1440p on Series X and 900p on Series S (this will only display as an option of you have a screen which supports 40 FPS)
- Right stick now only controls the character rotation in character screen
- Right analog stick no longer has double functionality in the character creation menu
- Heightmap differences between Xbox and PC have now been almost entirely eliminated (this means some areas in Xbox worlds will have a significant terrain change, and if you have built in these areas the buildings may unfortunately collapse)
