your sights on the the seas to the West, where tales speak of a great island filled with treasure ready for
the taking.

Your trusted huscarls will follow you to Valhalla if that be the order of the day, but you’ll need more than
loyalty to leave a legacy that will be remembered for a thousand years. Now assemble a worthy band of

● War and Politics: Side with various factions be they Norsemen, Picts, or Angles.
● Reputation: Be mindful of your choices, the stories of your actions may bring others to fear you, but

Fixed the issue where the To Do list's reminder about unassigned shifts would not account for the Heavy Sleeper skill.
Fixed a tier 5 helmet pickup in Jelling that had been accidentally set up as a hat instead, and gave the helmet a special property while we were at it.
Fixed the tooltip for Demoralised saying that Max Accuracy is halved instead of reduced by 50.
Fixed a line of description in the Asleifr romance that was being displayed as dialogue.
Fixed the conversation about Leofric's death/defeat playing a second time in York if you did Hadrian's Wall for the Vikings.
Fixed the FailedWarQuest conversation potentially not failing the right goals - now it just fails the entire quest instead.
Added loot to the thieves in York and the scouts in Yngilwood.
Removed an unused trigger script in Avalon that was throwing nullrefs.
Fixed a bug whereby the conversation with the dungeon guard in Chester would trigger without her present if you convinced the cult to leave and then tried to enter the dungeon.

Fixed the Cure ability not removing immobilisation correctly when used on characters who had Slipped.
The different level transitions in the Plains map in Britain are now outright disabled when you're not in their particular region, preventing you from using another transition to leave the map during Ketill's personal quest.

Patch 1.0.7.2 (01st December 2017)
Asset bundles are now left in memory since that seems to reduce the amount of crashes we get from that Unity loading bug that's haunted us since release.
Fixed issue with subtitles not loading correctly when changing game language.
Fixed null ref when scanning path system which could cause the save and load menus to show up empty.
Fixed a game logic bug whereby the main storyline could break in Scarborough if you sided with the bandits, fought Maucolyn and Morcant in front of the village, raided the convent with the bandits but without Morcant, and then betrayed the bandits outside the convent.
On a related note, fixed a very long load time caused by a timeout in Morcant's spawner if he'd snuffed it in Scarborough.
Fixed bug when curing a player that falls in a trip wire.

Fixed some typos in the hex line calculation code that was causing characters to be able to shoot through cover under very particular circumstances.

Made the marsh campsite nearest to Skjern not show up until after the prologue so you can't wander off until you're meant to.
Fixed issue when changing weapon while an ability is selected.
Added character blockers around the walls of every interior scene in the game that contains an encounter, to fix an issue where ragdolls could fall through the world.

Patch 1.0.6.1 (18 September 2017)
In version 1.0.6, all portraits are now loaded from your Documents directory in the folder \My Games\Expeditions Viking\Custom Portraits. If you want to add your own portraits to the game, you must create 5 different versions of each portrait in specific sizes and place them in that directory. The first time you launch the game in 1.0.6, it will write all our portraits into that folder, and you can use those portraits to see how it needs to be set up.
New portraits must meet the following requirements:
The files can be either .png or .jpg.
Each portrait's filename must end with a keyword that reflects its size: Large, Medium, Small, Tiny, or Camping.
Female portraits must contain the word "Female" anywhere in the filename. Otherwise the portrait will be treated as male (because patriarchy).
Note that the Camping portraits contain a frame. You can just cut that out of an existing portrait with your image editing software of choice.
You can overwrite an existing portrait by simply replacing its files with a set of identically named files in that folder.
If you overwrite an existing portrait, that portrait will be replaced with your new version in your game, without you having to start over in your playthrough. If you want to reset this portrait to the original later, you can simply delete the portrait files from the Custom Portraits folder, and it will be restored by the game next time you launch it.
All portraits included with Expeditions: Viking are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License In simple terms, you are allowed to remix, tweak, and build upon our work non-commercially, but you must credit Logic Artists or Expeditions: Viking and you must license your new creations under identical terms (no making money off of our work, please!)
If you find that your Custom Portraits folder is empty, it's because something on your computer is denying write access to Expeditions: Viking. In 1.0.6 this was breaking the portraits entirely, which is what 1.0.6.1 was created to address. As per 1.0.6.1 the game will fall back to the internal portraits contained in the data files, but that still means you won't get any portraits written to your custom portraits folder. You can still add new portraits there which will then show up in the game, but if you want to see the original portraits you'll have to find a way to give the game write access to that folder - you can try disabling your firewall and antivirus or just checking your user permissions. If your user account simply doesn't have admin access, you may need to talk to your admin.
Custom localisation and random events
This update also introduces support for loading in custom localisation files and user-created random events. Because of the way the scripting system in Viking works, there is no way for us to let you add new characters with new conversations to the game, but the random events that trigger on the campaign maps and during travel are loaded in dynamically, and now you can add new events yourself or even overwrite existing events.
In other words, you can now write your own damn Aife romance events and stop bothering us about it!
Toolset

We have also released our toolset which includes some example files, all of our conversation work files, and the editor we used to set up all our conversations in the game. It comes with a PDF manual with thorough instructions for how to set up your own localisation files or add your own random events.
Change log

Since this update has had a particularly long gestation period (for our standards), we've decided not to include a full change list this time around. Instead, we're bringing you just the highlights. If you wish to know about any particular bug that's been bothering you, which isn't mentioned here, feel free to ask in the comments on this thread.

Changed the skillpoint display to show the amount of points spent instead of the total
Follower selection popup now uses alphabetic sorting instead of being based on injuries
Fog of War now takes up way less space in savegames (will only affect new saves)

Fixed the AI sometimes switching to unarmed combat for no apparent reason
Fixed a bunch of weird things with the Runaway bounty encounter

Made it possible to lie to Sandarr about taking Mani as a thrall exactly once and still come back to complete or fail the quest
Fixed a quest logic bug in Pack It Up that was prematurely closing the quest if you left the forest after resolving Unwanted Guests and then came back later
All characters' items will now be transferred to the item inventory in the unfortunate event of death
Fixed a bug that would cause the game to get stuck when returning from the final dream if you triggered it in a specific camp site
Fixed the issue where throwing the waterskin on an ally would select it instead
Fixed another way it was possible to get stuck in the Unwanted Guests side quest by clicking on things in the wrong order multiple times in a row
Made the intro conversation to the pig feud quest just play again if you interrupt it the first time and retrigger it later
Fixed a bug whereby the start time for all time-based status effects except Hung Over was not being set, causing them to be immediately removed again
Fixed an issue where allied combatants would sometimes not return to being NPCs
Fixed characters being able to traverse blocked hexes in two encounters
Fixed Torfinn not getting removed as a follower when you leave Skjern Forest before completing his quest, causing him to only spawn every 2nd time you enter the forest
Fixed the Swipe ability not dealing damage to enemies around the target if the target was killed
Fixed Cure and Restore abilities using reach distance when equipped with a spear
Fixed the Escaped Thralls conversation in Perth being able to trigger during any of the battles despite the thralls not being around
Fixed the combat character tooltips showing the selected character's crit chance in place of the hovered character's crit chance
Fixed a few typos in dialogue
Fixed an issue where some status effect icons would sometimes appear white in the camping interface
Fixed the error message for having spent the necessary action in the utility item tooltips looking in the wrong localisation file
And many other minor things.
Patch 1.0.5 (16th June 2017)
Hello, and thanks for checking in with us again. Today we've released update 1.0.5 for Expeditions: Viking. In addition to some bug fixes, this version contains several major changes to game balance that I will outline separately before we get to the change log.
New caps on skill ranks

The most significant change we've made is to introduce caps on all skill ranks based on the total amount of skill points you've spent. Ranks 1 and 2 are freely accessible, but in order to upgrade a skill to rank 3 you must have spent a total of 100 SP. To reach rank 4, you must have spent 175, and to max out a skill at rank 5 you must have spent a total of 250 SP. Recall that you begin the game with 50 SP and that there is a total of just over 300 SP in the campaign. The result is that you'll have no skills above rank 3 when you go to Britain, and you won't be able to level up to rank 5 until quite late in the game.

This update trades away some freedom of choice to enforce a better levelling curve. Previously, we let you max out your weapon skills quite early in the game, with the predictable result that you would outpace the enemies before you even reached Britain, and the enemies wouldn't begin to catch up until near the end of the game. Now, you're forced to distribute your points among the different categories, perhaps buying some Utility and Passive skills for a more well-rounded character. This does have the drawback that characters will be a bit less specialised, but the improvement to the game's difficult curve is profound.
Surprise round on enemy initiative

A new feature is the so-called Surprise Round, which occurs when you trigger an encounter where the enemy acts first. Previously the enemy would get a full turn before you had any chance to position your hirdmen. Since there is no formation system in the game, this felt unfair. From version 1.0.5 and onwards, the player always acts first, but in encounters where the enemy would previously begin, the player will not have any attack action, nor a bonus action in the first turn. In other words you can only move or change your weapons in your first turn because your party was caught by surprise. This has also allowed us to change the initiative back to Enemy-first on all the encounters that were previously set to Player-first to avoid unfairness. The result is a slight but significant increase in difficulty in many encounters throughout the game.

Bear in mind that this update is not the final word on difficulty. These are major changes that will fix our difficulty issues, but they are not intended to increase the upper ends of difficulty on the Hard and Insane settings. The next update will contain more tweaks intended to make the Hard and Insane settings live up to their name, as well as the promised Iron Man mode.

And now for the full change list. As with the 1.0.4 update, I have divided it into two sections: one for changes and additions, and one for fixes. Since this update has a far greater variety of changes than previous patches, I've decided to further subdivide each section into categories based on the type of change or fix.
Changes and additions

New stuff

As explained above, added new "surprise round" feature to allow player positioning before enemy turn when ambushed
Added full Danish localisation
Added three new campsite scenes to the Denmark campaign for improved visual variation: Plains 2, Marsh 2, and Deep Forest
Added new animations for Taunt and Dust abilities
Added a new generic support ability animation for when you're wielding a spear
Added an animation for consumable utility items (ie. drinking potions)
Skills and items

As described above, skill upgrades are now capped by your total amount of SP spent, so you must spend 150 SP to upgrade a skill to rank 3, 200 for rank 4, and 250 for rank 5
Made substantial improvements to the algorithm that assigns skills to enemies by rank and archetype, which will increase the effectiveness of enemies throughout the game
Made the Archer archetype use axe and shield instead of dane-axe or spear, and changed the loadouts of all Archer characters in the game accordingly
Items crafted with the Artisan skill can no longer get the "Cursed" property
Decreased the cost reduction for repairing and the gain % from deconstructing items
Discarding a weapon will now yield at least 1 Salvage or Hide even if you have no Repair skill
Increased item degradation during combat from 1 point per crit to 10% of max durability per crit
Added a 50% chance each round that a character is on fire that they'll get a Burn injury - subsequent rounds of being on fire then has a 25% chance of the injury deteriorating
Taunt will now make the target move towards the caster even if they can't entirely reach them - they'll just move as far as they can
Changed the Aimed Shot ability to have a 40% damage penalty instead of a 5 percent-point crit chance bonus, and changed Sharpshooter to reduce that penalty from 40% to 20%
Sharpshooter now requires Bow on rank 3, Steady Hands no longer has a skill requirement, and Backstabber now costs 4 SP instead of 8
Accuracy for ranged attacks now falls off by 6 points per hex instead of 5
Walk Your Shots now reduces the per-hex distance fall-off for ranged attacks back to 5 instead of simply adding 5 points every time you take a shot
Parrying no longer cancels all damage from the parried attack - the parrying character takes damage as normal, but with the doubled base DR from Parrying
Changed Opportunist so that attacks of opportunity now apply Stunned to the target if you have the skill, instead of just giving you an extra AoO every round - also raised its cost from 3 SP to 6
Increased the damage of Hailstorm from 50% normal attack damage to 75% normal attack damage and reduced its charges from 2 to 1
Changed Stone Fists from a 10 point bonus to Melee Damage to a 10 point bonus to Armour Piercing damage
Raised the cost of Powerful Kick from 6 SP to 9
Revive is now restricted to 2 charges
Gave pit traps a massive damage buff
Increased all Tinkering material costs
Reach weapons no longer inflict non-lethal damage at close range, since this was not explained anywhere
Encounters

Changed quite a few of the encounters in the game to have the enemies start, which is no longer frustrating now that we have the surprise round feature
Nerfed the damage of all wolf types except the Wolf Mothers, whose damage is now doubled
Added a couple of guards in Perth's treasury and set all the loot in the main area to Owned - when you visit during the betrayal, the guards have been killed and the loot is no longer Owned
Buffed all occupied campsite fights in Britain and tweaked the cover in some of the scenes
Buffed the assassins in Ribe
Buffed the fight against the youngsters in the Ravine Cave
All the bounty fights have received a significant buff
Added reinforcements to both of the wall fights during the invasion of York
Doubled the number of enemies in the prisoner room fight in York's dungeon
Made Leofric and Steinn brown-haired and made Steinn waaa-hay-haaay more badass
The monks and nuns in Lindisfarne Church and the Scarborough Convent will now run into corners and cower in fear when you attack (the Cower animation is new)
Made the female guard outside the Skerninge passage grave drop a damaged, cursed chain mail upon her death
Other changes

Added icon tooltips to the Tinkering menu
Injuries now deteriorate in combat with a probability based on how long the character has been incapacitated - characters can never die outright in combat, however
Injuries now deteriorate during camping as well, and we've added some UI logic for this to work - fatally injured characters can die when you make camp if left untreated
Increased injury penalties
Tweaked injury settings to allow groin and chest punctures and eye trauma
Reduced the Armour-smithing level of every blacksmith in the game by 1
Made the faction reputation number show up even when your faction reputation is Neutral
Added a menu option for disabling reflection probes so you don't have to mess with the config
Made the farmer in Skerninge and his wife lie on the ground to match the description text
Added thrall deco characters to the homestead depending on how many Slaves you have (up to about a dozen)
Added a Medium reputation increase if you complete the Rats quest peacefully
Reflection probes will now automatically be disabled the first time you launch the game on an Intel videocard, and you'll get a pop-up about it - you can manually re-enable them afterwards if you'll risk it
Tweaked the morale changes in the initial conversation with Maban so they're more intuitive
Bug fixes

Stability and performance

Fixed one more set of crashes related to loading characters into the scene
Fixed the unreproducible issue some players had reported where the game would crash at the end of camping and potentially at the end of a fight
Added check so corrupted fog of war files do not prevent loading scenes
Made some optimisation in the level loading
Quest logic

Fixed the Ab Urbe Condita side quest hanging around in your quest log even if you choose an outcome for Chester that causes Fabian Quintus to leave, so you can't complete it anymore
Fixed a bug whereby Myrddin would not spawn in the stone circle if you entered his cave instead of bringing Cillian directly to him after the rescue
Fixed a spot where you could get stuck after the battle for Yngilwood
Fixed a bug where you could start the Snakes Among the Trees or Lost Hunting Party side quests during the Battle of Yngilwood if you hadn't started them previously
Fixed the fight at the entrance to Jelling potentially repeating with no enemies if you leave the town through the hidden tunnel and then attempt to re-enter it from outside
Fixed an issue where Grainne would sometimes appear inside Caustantin's hall after the wedding when she wasn't supposed to
Fixed a bug whereby you could no longer free the Yngilwood Scout's loved one in the York Dungeon if you chose not to do so the first time you were given the option
Added a fade-out if you sentence Geirmundr in Orkney to the blood eagle, during which he'll be despawned
Fixed the non-interactive parts of Geirmundr's "camp" in Orkney also highlighting along with the interactive parts
Skallagrimr and the other thegns will now disappear from Steinn's house once you complete the first of the Viking ending quests
Received and implemented the Russian and French versions of a single branch of conversation with Hulda that had been missed in the original localisations for those two languages
Fixed the higher difficulty-related completion achievements not unlocking the lower levels
Fixed being able to interact with the haystack behind Erlingr's farm after the fight if you already set fire to it once
Fixed the fire in Erlingr's farmhouse persisting forever (it now stops once the quest is closed)
Fixed most of the dead characters who were supposed to show up as ghosts in Grimnir's Helheimr dream not showing up
Fixed Olbjørn and Grimkell's character spawners creating a very long delay in loading the goodbye scene in Skjern if they were killed on Holmgang Island
Fixed Maucolyn not being set as immortal if you encounter him at the village after raiding the monastery, which could result in you speaking to a very clearly dead man
Fixed Conall mac Taidg's death variable not being set, causing some narrative inconsistencies
Fixed an error when teleporting the player party to waypoints in conversations which showed up if you lost the fight against Maucolyn in front of the village
Fixed a bug whereby if you set an ambush for Osred's men in The Mercian Connection and leave any of them alive, the fight in front of the Roman tower wouldn't begin
Osred's spy token will now be removed from your inventory when you show it to a scout in Yngilwood
Changed the logic in Torfinn's tree conversations a bit to make the quest more robust
Reduced the trigger radius on the sewer tunnel conversation in Chester to be what it's supposed to be
Skills and items

Fixed a bug that was causing characters to play their incapacitation barks at entirely the wrong times during combat
Fixed the highest rank ability of each skill not displaying its action type in its tooltip
Fixed several issues with the implementation of Gungnir's special property - the weapon will now damage enemies in the two hexes in front of you, three if you're using Extend
Fixed an issue where pre-damaged looted items would be using the current Salvage value to calculate tiers rather than the undamaged one
Resistances are now capped at 100% in the UI
Fixed Adrenaline Junkie applying its bonus as soon as a character is at less than max health, instead of only when they drop below 20% as described
Fixed the missing icon for the British silver cross talisman types
Replaced an old hack to prevent non-Vikings from getting the Dane-Axe skill with a more general solution that checks the nationality condition for all skills before assigning them (this will also prevent non-Vikings from buying Galder, which they cannot use anyway)
Removed the track quest input from all contexts except Default (which will stop it showing up in the other sections of the input bindings)
Fixed the Amulet of Macha not getting its special property correctly (this fix is not retroactive, if you already picked up the Amulet of Macha, it will remain useless - however you can give yourself a new, working amulet with the console command giveitem party Talisman_Macha)
Fixed a 10-second pause caused by a timeout if a Parrying character is Stunned and subsequently attacked; all immobilisation now cancels Parrying as well as Hypnotised, Interrupting, Panicked, and Ready
You can no longer parry attacks from weapons with reach from 2 or more tiles away
Fixed missing sound effects on the Parrying animations
You can no longer trigger an execution with any weapon type other than a sword
Fixed a pretty unlikely combat timeout that would happen if Condemned characters took fire damage
Fixed the Tactical Move button being selectable even if no attack action was possible
Fixed Stunned animation not being reset if a character is defeated while that animation is playing
Fixed the wolf mothers' Nuzzle ability placing the wolf inside the incapacitated wolf's tile instead of adjacent to it
Fixed wrong health displayed in the UI when using Nuzzle or Revive
Fixed the Sacrament ability tripling ally resistances instead of doubling it as intended
Other fixes

Fixed certain music tracks being controlled by the main volume slider instead of the music slider
Fixed the input system overwriting user settings with the defaults in some situations
Removed Crouch Control from the input settings
Fixed non-lethal attacks being able to proc critical hits
Fixed certain blacksmiths being set up with a higher armour-smithing rating than is actually possible, which broke the UI
Fixed bug where an occupied campsite would be marked as captured when entering the campsite but then reloading the previous saved file without even playing through the fight
Fixed an issue where tinkering items in camping might not be loaded properly by the save system

Fixed a typo in the to-do list reminder for unassigned shifts
Nefja and Ketill can no longer die from injuries in Denmark
Fixed switch weapon button being greyed out after an attack of opportunity on the selected character
Fixed the localisation ID for homestead upgrades not being retrieved correctly for upgrades that only have 1 branch

Removed a lootable barrel from inside a house in Perth
Added ability icons for the wolf abilities so they don't show up as white squares when you look at wolves with the character info panel, and added explanatory tooltips for them as well
Fixed a weird-looking tree in the Britain forest menhir campsite
Patch 1.0.4 (19th May 2017)
The main purpose of this patch was to fix the last of the crashes - a particularly tricky crash that turned out to be caused by Unity's reflection probes when our day/night cycle asks them to re-render. The crash mostly happened on Intel cards and certain AMD cards.

Disabling reflection probes

For now, we've added an option for disabling the reflection probes. If you're still getting the occasional loading screen crash or if the game is crashing during the camping timelapse, try enabling this option - especially if you're running the game on an Intel or AMD card:

Open your config file - it's in your Documents folder by default that's
C:\Users\Logic Artists\Documents\My Games\Expeditions Viking\Config
Locate the [VideoSettings] section, and add the following line at the bottom: ReflectionProbes=False
That's it - that should stop the crashes. Without reflection probes, the lighting in the scene will not look quite as natural as it does with the probes enabled, but it's better than crashes.

Of course we've also managed to make a number of other fixes and improvements while we were at it. We've even managed to add a wee bit more content.

Made the game heal all injuries and reset fatigue and hunger after Hrodgærda's attack on Skjern

Characters no longer drop Salvage
Added a wave of reinforcements to the entrance guards in Jelling and did a general polish pass on the scene
Added a bunch of deco characters fighting in the background in Jelling, and a few civilians that will flee if you approach them - also made a couple of houses burn
All Northumbrian and Pict quests will now be failed when you side with Aiblinn in Dun Phris, to avoid narrative inconsistency
Disabled some of the York entrance one-liners in the event you've invaded Northumbria, and made it so the guards are replaced by either Picts or Vikings depending on your choices
Bug fixes

Improved stability.
Fixed Fog of War not being reset correctly when starting a new game
Fixed a gamebreaking quest logic bug whereby Myrddin would be noninteractive if you fought the villagers without him and Cillian died (because a goal was set as optional when it should have been mandatory)

Fixed an issue where you wouldn't be able to complete Parsley Sage Rosemary Thyme if you let Morcant go after raiding the monastery

Changed the color correction in the Chester Sewers
Fixed being able to take the runaway guard's body in Scoundrel's Flight if you had already gone into the tomb
Fixed being able to use the runaway guard and his girlfriend's bodies for the sacrifice when they weren't dead
Fixed Cillian not despawning correctly when Myrddin buries him

Switched the numbers for schematics in armour crafting to be consistent with how the numbers are displayed in the Tinkering menu
Fixed the tutorial window we added in 1.0.3 not updating step text correctly
Confirmation boxes originating from conversation can't be dismissed anymore (which means you can no longer avoid travel ambushes by pressing Escape...)
Fixed the food selection in camping prioritising Rations rather than Meat
Tyr's Favour can now only be used by Viking enemies as intended - it's a bit of a hack for now, as the AI skill selection will still assign Galder to non-Vikings, but we'll deal with that later
Cleaned up and polished the ambient audio in Jelling
Fixed Wreckers in Scarborough not staying gone if you had gotten rid of them peacefully
Fixed the looters in Donncoirce Homestead coming back if you had convinced them to leave

Added headlines to the skill rank tooltips in Crafting so it's a bit more clear what they mean

Made the family from the Troll Tree not show up later if either of the parents were killed
Fixed Æthelred's war camp not disappearing from Yngilwood if you fail the Northumbria questline early, and disabled some of the entrance one-liners related to the camp once it's gone

Made the game logic that triggers Osred's conversation with Æthelred after his defeat a bit more robust to ensure that it won't get stuck
Added a config option for disabling reflection probes to solve the loading screen crashes that happen in certain scenes on certain video cards (thanks Unity)
As always, we'd like to thank you all for your help in identifying these issues. Now that the worst bugs are ironed out, we're going to start digging into the nice-to-have list. The next update will take a bit longer, but it'll also contain a bunch of new stuff. Stay tuned for more information :)

Patch 1.0.3 (19th May 2017)
Known Issue: Loading Crash

We've gotten a bit closer to tracking down the loading crash that some players are still experiencing, but we believe the crash still exists in this patch. We think it may be an issue with the version of Unity that we used for the game. Fixing it is our current highest priority.
A small group of users may be experiencing a different error related to video playback at the start of the game. Please read the bottom section of this post for instructions on how to bypass this as we look into a solution.
Change log: General Fixes

You can now disable the game's time limit - see below for instructions
Fixed fire particle effect crashing the build
Fixed the campaign map triggering travel events and vice versa (which was preventing a lot of events from triggering)
Fixed a bug that was causing faction reputation checks in conversations to always think you had 0 reputation (note: as long as your reputation with a faction is between -20 and 20, the faction screen will not display any changes, but your reputation is changing - that's just a UI issue that we hope to address in the next patch)
Fixed a bug whereby Drugged and Intoxicated would stick around forever if they were applied during a conversation (they now last 3 hours each, so walk it off)
Added a player message for when you get status effects through conversations and when they're removed over time
Stat numbers are now coloured red if they're being reduced by an injury or status effect and orange if they would be reduced but they actually can't go any lower
Status effect icons now show up in the same places as injury icons (most importantly in the character screen and in the follower selection menu)
Added a new tutorial pop-up about the timeline
Fixed item removal nodes removing the wrong item if the intended item was equipped (specifically, Ketill's personal quest was removing his bow instead of his talisman)
Fixed the Toss ability
Added adjacency checks to the activation conditions for Heavy Swing and Hook and Slash (the latter already had a within-rush-distance check, but that's not enough)
The game will now no longer autosave during sequences where saves are disabled
Fixed conversation kills without takedown animations not updating the animation state of the victim (which would cause them to still be standing around and look alive after you killed them)
Made some improvements to loading times
Fix the issue where the absent characters would be eat in camp
Fixed an issue where followers could die in combat in an injury got worse while incapacitated
Fixed characters not going to the right positions and playing the right animations during camping
Added check for null ref when determining flanking
Removed party spawner from character creation
Added localisation strings for the Worldmap for the save menu
Messed a bit with some of the pre-set characters' morale, including raising all your huscarls (except Asleifr, because he's a douchebag)
Fixed the player marker being placed on your previous campaign map position if you sail to Scarborough from somewhere else and leave by foot
Fixed the Denmark campaign map thinking you're in Erlingr's farm the first time you leave the Homestead after the prologue
Fixed Ribe's description referring to Ragnhildr as a thegn instead of a jarl
Fixed the player's ship sails not getting the right colours from the player model anywhere other than in the Homestead
Added animation sound effects to the random filler characters in the cities
Replaced some of Ribe's characters with filler characters to shave the loading time down a bit and made sure that all filler characters who are sitting down in all three cities have their colliders disabled
Made some corrections to the French localisation
Status effects are now removed from dead people
Reduced the amount of consumables and throwables you find in lootable objects
Reduced the amount of salvage you can get from crates, barrels, and baskets
Added Hungry and Starving counts to the party information panel on the travel maps
Made some tweaks in initialization to prevent crashes when loading Ribe
Fixed not all keybinding options being shown at all times
Fixed a background not tiling in the pause menu
Improved the colour correction in Orkneyjar
Improved colour correction for Caustantin's Hall and the dungeon in Legacæstir
Improved the colour correction in the dream sequences
Removed birds from the 2nd dream since they weren't animating
Fixed the movement value localisation not being correct
Fixed a tooltip not being localized in the camping todo list
Fixed issue with abilities not getting deselected when a character was immobilised
Added an animation for characters sleeping in beds (for Eyfura and Bjørgdis)
Tile objects (ice, campfires, brambles, etc.) now trigger when combat starts (e.g. you are instantly set on fire if you stand on a campfire); however, characters no longer start on a tile with a hazard (these may appear to contradict each other but the result is that things will run as they should but your characters should be smart enough to not step on hazards on their initial turn)
Illumination does not get removed at the end of the turn anymore
Characters standing inside a campfire will now be illuminated in addition to burned
Optimised the reflection probes in all campsites, hoping that'll fix or reduce the crashes some players have reported during the timelapse
Made the AdvanceTime debug command only accept positive numbers
Change log: Quests

Made it so you can trigger the Althing and end the game if you have 100 Prosperity even if you haven't completed any other questline

Disabled the option to tell Ragnhildr you killed the Rats if you didn't kill the Rats
Made the Red Wedding party not spawn if the Wait goal is Inactive, instead of if Wait is Not Completed and Not Failed
Moved the goal marker for the first Red Wedding goal from the groom's father onto the house door so it doesn't go to a campaign map marker when the wedding party despawns
Fixed the Red Wedding party spawning in during the night if they had previously spawned in during the day
Fixed the scared man in the Barghest quest spawning in during the day if he had previously spawned in during the night, but at the same time accidentally inverted his spawn conditions so he now spawns only during the day - will fix that in the next patch, as it doesn't break anything

Disabled the dialogue option to sacrifice a mercenary in Skerninge because it wasn't working

Fixed not getting the proper ID for a randomly selected character in the stray boat event
Fixed being able to talk to Maban before you catch the thieving child, thereby never being able to complete that goal; also fixed being able to enter the houses before you get the relevant quests

Made it so you can pick up the knife in the wall in one of the entrable homes in Eoforwic and set the loot to owned
Set everything to owned in the 2nd Eoforwic house and made the lord of the house lie in his bed

Fixed the robbers on the ridge in the swamp not reacting if you had gone there once before

Disabling the Time Limit

By popular demand we've implemented a way for you to disable the game-over that you'll normally get if you run out of time in either campaign. Time will still pass as normal and the timeline will appear to progress, but once it reaches the end, nothing will happen. To activate this:

First find your config file. It should be in \Documents\My Games\Expeditions Viking\Config.
Open Config.ini with your text editor of choice (Notepad will do nicely).
Locate the [PlayerSettings] section and add the following line TimeGameOver=False at the end of it, for example:
[PlayerSettings]
GameLanguage=English
GoalMarkerBehaviour=ShowAll
Dismemberment=True
Tutorial=False
DisplayHexes=False
DisplayHelmets=True
EdgePanning=True
ControlStyle=CRPG
TimeGameOver=False
Save the file and open the game.
To verify that the time limit is disabled, hover over your marker or the icon at the end of the timeline. It should say, in a red font: "Running out of time is currently disabled." Note that this will only show up in the English or English (Norse Names) localisations so far, because we haven't had the new strings localised yet.
Disabling the time limit will also disable all difficulty-related achievements for finishing the game. As mentioned somewhere in the changelist above, to complement this new feature we have also changed the "advancetime" cheat so it no longer accepts negative numbers. Of course there are things that stop making sense when you disable the timeline. We assume that if you do this, you don't particularly care about the narrative consistency of the game,do not be suprised if the game suddenly skips almost a year into the future, and a title card proclaims the year to be 789 AD when your in-game clock says 790 or something like that.

Video crash bypass instructions

If your game has been crashing immediately after character creation or immediately upon opening, try adding the following anywhere in your config file: [VideoPlaybackSettings] DoPlayVideos=False The side effect is that you will not get any videos. This is mainly a problem for the end of the game, since the denoument will not play. We're still working on a "proper" fix for a later update.

Patch 1.0.2 (08th May 2017)
Changelog

Improved stability further
Fixed the resolution not being set correctly in the options
Player now has a fixed morale to Heroic (+10)
Fixed a bug where the person assigned to cleaning would always lose 1 morale; now there's 5% chance of that happening;
also added additional details in the player message log
Due to the player character now having a fixed morale,
they can no longer be set to clean the camp
Fixed a bug where killing Caustantin, Osred, or Æthelred after winning the fight with them would lead to the player dying instead (oh God I wish I didn't have to put this in the patch notes I am so unspeakably ashamed of myself for making this mistake)
Fixed a bug where the bounty Ealdorman could get killed if you attacked the thieves, so he would be missing once you got his own quest later
Fixed one of the groups of the thralls who had escaped from the slave trader in Orkney being unresponsive if you had passed through their area before they spawned
Fixed a stupid oversight in Uallach's (the witch in Perth) conversation that was preventing you from asking about Ketill or Nefja's personal quests if you had already completed her own side quest
Fixed the campfire in Yngilwood where you lay an ambush for the tanner - it was set to only play once, so if you clicked no to the pop-up initially you could never open it again

Fixed being able to trigger the hole in the wall in Dun Phris multiple times
Changed the initiative in Ingimar's Longhouse so the player starts
Fixed a bug where enemies that were set to immortal could still die from Burn injuries

Fixed an issue caused by using Charge with a reach weapon
Fixed Crippled not working

Fixed loot ownership not being disabled when Perth or York was being attacked
Moved some tutorials that were blocking the timeline
Fixed enemy and player AP being switched around in enemy tooltips
Fixed the Talon tooltip which wasn't being parsed correctly
Fixed the Sling tooltip calling it one-handed instead of two-handed
Fixed a tooltip in the treatment panel not showing up
Added more info about the timeline in the timeline tooltips
