I timed this just right, apparently. Steam force-updated my 74.32 to, umm, 91.19 I think? And didn't have my squad at all ready for the move. I now have 74.32 running out of the C:\Games folder in 64 bit version using DX 11. It actually runs better than running the game out of the Steam\steamapps\co...

I'll experiment with this. I think what you mean is that I need to copy the Kenshi folder out of steamapps\common to somewhere like C:\Games. Then, I can use the .exe startup file in the new location of the game folder to start that version of the game. After that, I can opt into the beta on Steam. ...

I'm playing 74.32 on my desktop PC. Is anyone running 2 versions on one PC? Not enough coffee yet this morning, so this may classify as a dumb question. However, I would like to be able to shut down the stable version and start up the experimental version in order to help with QA and bug reporting. ...

I've been reading about that, and it sounds like good changes. Also, my apologies for putting in my $.02 when I'm not even currently playing a version that includes this hunger dynamic That's going to change very soon now!

I'm new to Kenshi, but I have over a hundred hours into the 74.32 version. I'm still playing that, and having a blast. I've watched a few playthroughs of the new map, and I'm not really sure why it even exists. The sandy/desert biome had nothing wrong with it, that I can see. The direction I would l...

DISCLAIMER: Still playing 74.32, but some of this should still apply. Normal crafting progression goes like this: 1. Build or buy at least a small shack. 2. Build a basic starter research bench. 3. Research everything available, including the crafting skill (Weaponsmith, Armorsmith, etc.). Best NPC ...

Like many things, this has a proven solution: Include this "Hunger Games" mode as a Difficulty choice. The Fallout 4 model comes to mind. For those who want "Survival Difficulty", let them choose to play that way. Make "Normal Difficulty" the default start, and either r...

tl;dr: 74.32 is playable. Just don't overbuild and *especially* don't build too many lights. Keep shadows disabled. Even then, I'm getting crashes averaging probably 1 every 2 or 3 hours. Still, I'm having a blast :) My gaming rig is a new build: i7 quad core, 980 ti GPU and 16 GB RAM. Game installe...

Update: Starting the game in 32-bit mode fixed this issue. Starting it in 64-bit mode is not a good idea for this version of the game (0.74.32), which is the default game version on Steam.

Loading the game from the main startup screen seems to work fine. However, loading a save from within the game causes the squad portraits to disappear. Problem occurs in both windowed and full screen mode, and at varying 16:9 resolutions. I've tried both DX9 and DX11 rendering subsystems. DX11 won't...
