[b]Dark Envoy faithful, it's time to celebrate![/b]
We're kicking off [b]Dark Envoy's Second Anniversary[/b] celebration with the launch of [b]Patch 1.9[/b], the [b]Anniversary Update![/b] But this isn't just a celebration, it's a huge step towards our goal of delivering Dark Envoy version 2.0 and improving every part of your experience.
This update focuses on further fixes and quality-of-life improvements, and brings a brand-new feature to get you into the action faster. We've added a much-requested [b]Look Randomization [/b]button in [b]Character Creation[/b], allowing you to instantly generate unique starting looks for your heroes.

Beyond this new feature, the update delivers fixes for controller inputs, and addresses various camera and UI issues. It also includes preventative measures for visual bugs like pink textures and black-greenish portraits, including:
added shaders reload for inventory during character generation - for pink textures, black-greenish portraits, missing body parts (armor elements)
changed render queue of item icons - for missing icons
Should these graphic issues still persist for you—or if you encounter others—we kindly ask you to report them directly on our [url="https://discord.com/invite/eventhorizon"]Discord[/url] channel (#bug-reporting). Your save files are invaluable, and we are committed to working with you individually to find and eliminate any bug for good (case-by-case).
