FH updated today! You can read information about the update on the site, but since the site is having problems right now, here is a quick summary of what you can expect:
- a full overhaul of all maps; every single map has been completely redone and several have been removed and replaced with new maps!
- many of the old default markings have been redone to look more aesthetically pleasing; 4 new markings added. (marbled bengal on head, body, and tail for feline, collar for canine)
- more items besides the santa hat added to the default game
- certain folders in the game files have been reorganized to be less confusing
- buttswing animation has been replaced with moonwalk (though this matters less to those of us with custom animation packs)
- the character creator page has a blank white background instead of the rock-and-water background it previously had, which can make eye strain a problem
(EDIT: this can be changed with this mod. thank you for posting this, arya!!)
THINGS TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT:
because of the new items and markings, mods for these 2 things that haven't been updated to work with the new FH are gonna really mess up the order. every other type of mod (animations, fur textures, etc) should work fine.
sephlovable's LEGENDARY ITEMS PACK is completely updated for the new version as far as i can tell.
sephlovable's LEGENDARY MARKINGS PACK says it is updated, but it lacks the new default markings and the retextured old markings, so it actually isn't updated at all. downloading the markings pack right now means you'll either have to tediously put in only the markings exclusive to the pack while trying not to replace the default markings (very annoying) or you'll be stuck with the shitty old defaults and none of the 4 new markings, which'll make your markings appear weird to everybody else.
ALSO: if any of your characters were placed in any of the old maps, they may become stuck. this is an easy fix, though it may take a few tries to stick. in the "play game" page there is a link to a page that lists all the characters on the account you are logged into. click "reset home" on all these characters, and then click "go home". be sure to wait for it to load each time before clicking the next button. this should make all your characters spawn in the new lonely cave. if it doesn't work the first or second time, don't get discouraged!
i will update this post as things develop. i have already manually reinstalled legendary markings in a way that allows me to keep all the updated markings, so if sephlovable doesn't fix their pack i can give my markings folder to you guys to download!
EDIT: GET MY MARKINGS FOLDER HERE
put the.cfg file in the main fh folder, the rest in media > textures > markings
(note that this will put your characters' markings out of order! however, the markings only move by one slot, so it's a really quick fix. only took a few minutes to fix the characters on all of my accounts - and that is a lot of characters!)
