Terraria’s procedurally generated worlds have been overwhelmingly appreciated through nearly a decade of constant development. You can fight your way across a whole world, improving your gear to defeat bosses… or just mine, build, craft, and fish while creating a pretty house. Fight, explore, build… Terraria’s world is your playground.
The lastest 1.4 changelog for Terraria is out now, bringing the game to version 1.4.0.3. This patch brings the largest number of changes of the current 1.4 cycle, including the much requested removal of the bad torch luck, and the not really requested change to the Zenith recipe. Read the patch notes below.
TERRARIA Patch Notes - 1.4.0.3 Update
- Removed Bad torch luck
- Zenith now requires Bee Keeper in its recipe
- Owls now hoot less
- Added a large quantity of art asset revisions, mostly minor touch ups, but several with substantial changes, most notably, the Molten weapons and tools, Clentaminator, and S.D.M.G.
- Added a config.json setting called "DisableIntenseVisualEffects" that you can use to disable flashing during thunderstorms. Can be expanded to include other mechanics upon feedback.
- Added some optimization to mannequins and hat racks to decrease their performance toll
- Reduced liquid movement restrictions in multiplayer, which should translate to more liquid being allowed to move in servers at once
- Added a config.json setting called "TeamNameplateDistance" that lets you reduce the distance at which team names are drawn, with the default being 2000. Reducing the number of Team Nameplates on screen in MP can improve performance, so this can be used as needed.
- Fixed an issue where sometimes players would get an extremely long death timer. The maximum should now be limited to 30 seconds. This should retroactively fix characters with an extremely high death timer.
Terraria is available on Steam for £6.99 or as a 4-pack for multiplayer shenanigans with your friends.
As we mentioned already, these patch notes were the longest we’ve seen in 1.4 and you can read the complete list of changes on the Terraria forums.
