This patch backports a game startup optimization implemented into Intravenous 3 and fixes a crash.
PERFORMANCE
- integrated multithreaded loading of sound files, which greatly speeds up game startup time - your mileage may vary! game installations with many mods installed should see the biggest gains in startup times
BASE GAME CHANGES
- fixed a crash that could occur when lights would be disabled/enabled while actors were being removed
MODDING CHANGES
- exposed 'floors' library to mod environments
This patch reverts the controller changes in 1.4.10 based on player feedback - thank you to everyone that shared their thoughts!
CONTROLLER CHANGES
- the "melee" and "reload" actions have been reverted to their pre-1.4.10 behavior based on player feedback

This patch backports certain under-the-hood changes from Intravenous 3, to better build the pathfinding grid for NPCs, to further reduce instances of NPCs getting stuck.
'COLLATERAL' CAMPAIGN CHANGES
- changed geometry on several levels to reduce instances of AI getting stuck
IV1 REMASTER CAMPAIGN CHANGES
- changed geometry on several levels to reduce instances of AI getting stuck
BASE GAME CHANGES
- improved obstacle pathfinding grid obstruction indexes build procedure to use less memory and be more accurate
- improved pathfinding grid update procedure
- improved goon handling of verified pathfinding points (should reduce cases where goons are incapable of pathfinding to a particular spot that others managed to pathfind to)
- increased Saiga-12K drum magazine ammo capacity to 12 (was 7)
- fixed MAC-10 using an incorrect subsonic suppressed fire sound
- fixed FAMAS G2 having incorrect walk animations on the 'motor' goon variant
CONTROLLER CHANGES
- the "melee" and "reload weapon" now use the same button - hold to melee, press to reload:
* this change was implemented due to insufficient amount of buttons on the controller to perform all actions
* controller users, I would like to hear your feedback on this change!
- the "change firemode" key now defaults to square on a PS4 controller
MODDING CHANGES
- exposed the 'walls' and 'tipController' libraries to mod environments

Hey folks!
I'm happy to announce Intravenous 3 is now available for wishlisting on Steam!
[dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/4383190/Intravenous_3"]Together with HypeTrain Digital, we are developing the third entry in the series, one that is more ambituous than Intravenous 2.
Steve and Sean are back, and this time they're on the receiving end of a relentless manhunt.
Stealth or combat - the choice is yours, as it always has been, now with even more ways to play, and an even more reactive narrative.
Intravenous 3 will be culmination of everything I wished Intravenous was back in 2021, when the first game launched.
If you've been here since Intravenous 1 or 2, then you will love what the third game will have on offer.
Thank you for your support, and I hope that Intravenous 3 will bring you as much fun to play, as it is to us while we're actively developing it.
This update features several fixes and backports from the ongoing development of Intravenous 3.
BASE GAME CHANGES
- improved pathfinding - instances of goons getting stuck, or unable to pathfind to certain positions, should now be resolved and other similar instances should occur far less often
- improved AI cover stare logic - reduces instances where NPCs are clearly capable of watching some kind of pathway, but aren't
- improved tile visibility baking for static light sources
- fixed NPC obstacle avoidance not functioning correctly, potentially leading to NPCs getting stuck in world geometry
- fixed a rare crash that occurred when meshes that were used by shaders with custom vertex variables needed to be resized
- fixed lighting tile visibility baking for security cameras
- fixed light source tile visibility not baking the source tile index, resulting in a render "blind spot" at the base of the light source
- fixed goons exiting their cover peek state too soon if the player loaded a savefile in which NPCs were in the cover peek state
- minor memory optimizations
MAP EDITOR CHANGES
- disabled difficulty selection while in map editor
- fixed the 'disable trigger' cutscene action enabling triggers
'COLLATERAL' CAMPAIGN CHANGES
- fixed one of the objectives on the Nightclub level being incorrectly setup, resulting in the "Exfiltrate" objective never formally enabling, despite being able to exfiltrate after completing the main objective
MODDING
- exposed objectBuffer class to mod environments
- added world.EVENTS.INIT event - fired when a world class object is initialized
MISC
- updated LuaJIT to latest github version
Remember to report any issues you run into!
