Retail patch help

Version 1.02: missing paths, dorm and Amka softlocks

The short answer

Update to retail Version 1.02 for the developer-listed cobble-path regression and the two named softlocks. Eastshade still acknowledges other known issues; this patch is not a fix for every stuck quest.

Before you start

  • Check your installed game version. These are the October 4 Steam announcement’s retail 1.02 changes, not demo 0.484 fixes.
  • Kingy has reviewed the announcement but has not reproduced or retested these problems in the game.

Which symptoms does 1.02 address?

SymptomDeveloper-listed 1.02 change
Player-placed cobble paths disappearFixes a regression that removed those paths. The notice does not say whether already missing paths are restored.
A random gem conflicts with Amka’s tall-table cutsceneFixes this named softlock. It does not establish a fix for every Amka quest lock.

Specific dorm conflict (patch-note spoiler) Reveal solution / story details

Version 1.02 fixes getting stuck in the dorm because of a conflict between the squeaky floorboard and fireplace repair. The developer does not claim that every dorm issue is fixed.

New dialogue-camera option

Version 1.02 adds an option to disable the custom NPC cameras used when talking. Eastshade warns that some speakers may then be off-screen. With voiceover also disabled, you may not know what those speakers are saying. Choose the setting with that limitation in mind.

If the problem remains on 1.02

  1. Confirm the installed version before comparing your symptom to the named fixes.
  2. Preserve the save and record your platform, quest state and the last action before the lock. These are reporting checks, not tested workarounds.
  3. Report the remaining problem through the developer’s Steam boards, Discord or email bug-report channels. Eastshade explicitly says known issues remain; avoid assuming an unlisted issue is fixed.
