Warhorse Studios has released a brand new update for Kingdom Come: Deliverance. According to the release notes, patch 1.8.1 adds new better overlays which explain content and technical specification for launching content of each DLC, adds lamps and other lights in taverns to make it easier to see dice at night in dice minigame, adds bell toll sound in Pribyslavitz and fixes an issue that caused Hans Capon to get stuck after The Prey quest.
Furthermore, this patch fixes issues which sometimes caused game crash after load, improves the animation of woman getting up from seated position, makes fast travel accessible even with bow armed, fixes flickering torch during sprint or horse riding and fixes stuttering vegetation animations.
As always, this latest patch also comes with a number of Quest fixes. For example, it fixes an issue of missing pitcher sometimes making it impossible to complete Next to Godliness quest, a rare issue that made escape from Vranik impossible, a rare issue that cutscene didn’t launch after killing Runt, preventing further progress in quest, as well as the wrong weather during battle in quest Cold Steel, Hot Blood.
