Fixed

  • The background of the quest rewards is back. It was black: the game takes it from the screen, and the screen was not handed back to the game. It looks as coarse as on the PSP, because the game itself reduces it to 256 colours.
  • Stars instead of underscores in levels and ranks. Our free font has no star, so they are drawn by MHForever now. A few other symbols the font lacks (the full-width dash and the middle dot) are drawn with their usual equivalents.
  • A likely fix for the crash against the Shogun Ceanataur in the Swamp (Village 4★, Supreme Ruler of the Swamp). The crash log shows the game's sound engine tripping over leftovers from an older thread, in an area the PSP clears when a thread starts. Every thread now starts with that area cleared, as on the PSP. The quest has not been replayed yet, so please tell us whether it still crashes.

New

  • Choose your saves folder. In the launcher, Settings > Storage > Saves folder keeps your saves in any folder you like. Your saves are copied there; nothing is moved or deleted, and Use default takes you back.

Notes

  • Windows: MHForever-0.6.1-windows-x64.zip. Keep the .dll files next to mhfu.exe and mhfu-us.exe. Your settings and saves live outside the program folder, so unzipping a new version never touches them.
  • Linux: MHForever-0.6.1-linux-x64.tar.gz. Built on Ubuntu 24.04 (glibc 2.38 or newer); the launcher needs WebKitGTK 4.1 and GTK 3, the game OpenGL 3.3.
  • If the Shogun Ceanataur quest (or anything else) still crashes, please send your game.log (next to MHForever.exe) right after the crash.
  • Thanks to Shaepe for the reports and the suggestion.

Download

Windows: MHForever-0.6.1-windows-x64.zip. Unzip it anywhere you can write to and run MHForever.exe. The programs are not digitally signed, so Windows SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC": choose "More info" and then "Run anyway".

Linux: MHForever-0.6.1-linux-x64.tar.gz. Extract it and run ./MHForever (if your file manager removed the execute permission: chmod +x MHForever mhfu mhfu-us).

You need your own copy of the game; the archives contain no game data. The code is on GitHub under GPL-3.0-or-later.
