Update July 31:

The server and client have been updated.

This update includes:

A full terrain, character and data wipe. Hopefully this will be the last wipe until our final character wipe. We'll see how things go.

Hack and cheat prevention. This has been the main focus over the past few days as some potential cheats were brought to our attention. We are going to continue testing these hacks this week. Dealing with this is taking up valuable time, but it's better that we deal with this now and not in the future.

Master and corrected ambient sound control.

A server side full world collision map. This will be used for improved creature pathfinding and preventing cheats.

Creatures should now avoid the lake and other situations. Creatures are still being improved.

Continued rendering optimizations.

Fixes including campfires that weren't working and problems with the selection of dead animals.

We're going to keep plugging away today to get another update out as soon as possible.
