This looks awesome! Dual wielding is really fun. Also combat feels a lot smoother and fluid. Time for a new arena run... Main bloke was one hit in the head by an ogre. ouch...

Yes, next major update will be more story content.So will the next big update contain a big addition to the story line ? That's what I'm reading in the post
EDIT: Also I haven't noticed any Master Beast modes, are they in? The picture suggests that they should be in or be added in a small update soon
The expert and master ogre matches aren't in yet, only novice and adept (ogre in the screenshot above is adept ranked but Madoc is still working on adding more weapons and armor for the ogres). The higher ranked ogres will have better weapons and plate armor.
Combat is smoother than ever and the new blocking and animation is really good - I love the way the characters hold and position shields to protect themselves - looks really cool.
Only 'problem' I've noticed is that I have had the occasional swing or thrust where my weapon clipped through the opponents but not register a hit - this has mainly been with wide sweeps at the head. Another example was a registered hit to the the body but the sword appeared to stick out the enemies back briefly - whilst when using the billhook i was literally stabbing through one enemies body and coming out the other side with no hit registered.
Characters also seem to turn faster - I've found myself facing the wrong way after a swing much more frequently and also that I need to be more careful with the mouse keeping the cursor much closer to me or it goes off the screen.
Finally is it possible to add two versions of some single handed weapons into the practice arena so you can dual wield two of the same weapon rather than mixed? (minor thing - obviusly in main arena mode and game you just obtain two of the same thing)

Can I make a small suggestion? It would be nice if the hireling list had the rank/occupation next to their name. It would save me having to cycle through a bunch of inept people. Here's a picture of what I mean:
Edit: Also, are healer hirelings available or is that in the next update?

Try renaming the Exanima folder located in %appdata%\Exanima (paste this into Windows search box) and then launch the game. Your arena saves will be gone but if the new arena works without an error then you can replace the .rsg and .rcp files from the renamed folder into the new Exanima folder which was created to replace the old one.

According to Parco the bug is related to having the merchant hireling search for "Master" rank items. Can you please try setting the merchant to look for inept items and see if you still have the issue?Thanks Tony for your help. Unfortunatly it didnt work
After renaming the folder the new arena worked fine. But after copying those .rsg and .rcp files the error is the same.
How can I access my merchant if I cant access my saved game?
For the record this is what happened:
I updated to 0.6.4.3 and played some time. Hired the merchant and continue playing. After some time I started to have some "Unknow app error" messages but game was still working.
The only strange thing was that when pressing the ESC key the menú that was showing up was the one with the "forfeit" option... even if I was not in combat but in the arena loby.
So I exited the game (with the X in window mode). When I tried to start the game again an update in steam was executed (for 0.6.4.3c). When I started again and selected arena mode and continue I was able to see my main player page. But as soon as I press continue to access the arena loby the error pops up and the screen is black.

Ah, I didn't realize it was going black immediately before you were even in the arena hub. Well, it may be possible for Madoc to recover the game if you send the arena .rsg file to him [email protected] with a description of the issue; although the save may be totally corrupted and not fixable but doesn't hurt to try. And in either case it may help Madoc to solve the bug.

If your save can't be recovered I can always send you my save just so you can try the new content without having to start again from scratch

Those merchants are really something - look what she's done with her waistcoat (was bought in her store) and boots (were bought in common store).
