We’ll kick the week off with a third pre-release for the Mounts of Mayhem drop. This pre-release includes bug fixes and spear weapon tweaks.

Happy mining!

New Features
Spear Weapon

While charging, the Spear hit animation and sound now play only after the previous hit animation has fully completed
While charging in first person, the Spear head now gradually rotates to a fully vertical position over time, matching the behavior in third person

Changes

The “See-Through Leaves” video setting is now turned off on the “Fast” graphics preset
Tamed horses no longer run into cacti or sweet berry bushes
