Co-op fixes, Xbox LIVE matchmaking for small rooms, new tweaks

Showdown Town co-op (co-op edition 1.7)

  • Characters stay right after a world trip. Mumbo stays Mumbo, Piddles comes back as Piddles, and the others see you as your character again as soon as you are back in town. Characters that only exist in town are Banjo inside the game worlds.
  • Nobody can get into your vehicle. Other players can't take your empty seat while you're on foot.
  • Recalled parts (RB) and B-edits show for everyone. Parts you call back and changes you make in the vehicle editor in town now appear on the other players' screens.
  • Jig-O-Vends no longer freeze the other players' games.
  • Players on the minimap. Other players show as a marker on the town minimap.
  • Fewer phantom part losses. Bumping into another player's vehicle no longer counts as a weapon hit. This happened far more often under reNut.
  • Leftovers from the last town visit are cleared when you come back from a world or the garage. They could make another player stay invisible after the garage.
  • The host closing the room is now shown. Joiners see "Host disconnected" and are asked whether to close their game. This also happens if the host's PC stops answering.
  • "How to play together" steps are shown when you host or join, including when to choose RESUME SAVED GAME.
  • The Play as card is hidden for editions without Character Select.

Character Select 1.1

  • Mumbo and the other characters no longer get stuck after a wrench move. It used a 2.8 s animation and now takes about 0.8 s.
  • The ledge grab, summoning a vehicle and get-ups were fixed the same way. The ledge-grab fix is not checked in game.

Xbox LIVE (Vanilla and editions)

  • Ranked Match and Player Match start with 2 players. The game normally waits for at least 4 players and searches again every 70 seconds. In an NB room a lobby of 2 or more now starts after about 20 seconds.
  • Party play ("Play a game with my party") already worked for races and sports.

Photos

  • The photo camera no longer takes black pictures, in Xenia or reNut.

reNut

  • reNut starts in a window. F11 or Alt+Enter switch to full screen and back, and Alt+F4 still closes the game.
  • A crash on the title screen (the intro movie's sound shutting down) is fixed.
  • The NB mod layer now covers the new tweaks. The reNut build kit is updated in renut-nb.

New tweaks (Mods & editions)

  • L.O.G.'s Choice unlock: CHOOSE VEHICLE in a L.O.G.'s Choice challenge unlocks for good once you have won its TT trophy. Before that, it stays greyed out as in the original.
  • Planes fly in town: propellers and jets push in Showdown Town like in the Act worlds.
  • No ceiling: removes Showdown Town's invisible roof and raises the height limit.
  • Stable fast vehicles: stops the wild mid-air spinning with super engines.
  • Unlimited part quantity: every part you own counts as 9999.

Maps

  • Snowy Showdown Town 1.1: no ceiling over the snowy town, and planes fly there too.
  • Seattle is included, with Change Vehicle in town and a bigger world edge.
