Hollow Knight 1.0.2.6 live on public beta. Mac and Linux available!

[Team Cherry]

1.0.2.6 is now live on beta branch, which contains some bug fixes, improvements and also includes builds for both Mac and Linux for testing.

When selecting a beta branch, you'll see the following options and choose the correct one for your system:

Windows PC: public-beta
MAC OSX: beta-osx-
Linux: beta-linux-

French is also included as a language option, currently also in beta. Note that some symbols in French are showing up as squares because of missing glyphs in the font. We're aware of this and will get it fixed up in next patch.

As always, if you encounter a bug, please submit it through to http://hollowknight.com/bugs

I don't know how to fix this so I'll pass it on to the team. Sorry guys! Soon!

Updated on Mac beta. Game still crashes every time on the trasition from the controller recommendation screen. I haven't been able to get past this since I bought the game at launch. Hoping for a fix! :)

Thanks for looking into this. I have money waiting to buy this game as soon as I hear the beta is running. I will be happy to hunt for (game) bugs...

Working great for me as well. Solid 60 fps with vsync, over 140 fps without. i7-6700 GTX 1050ti Neon LTS (Ubuntu 16.04).

Thanks for the great game and thanks to the devs for taking the time to support linux!

[Deatheye]

I have no idea where to post this so il post it here
is there a place where you can suggest something to the devs?

When can we expect 1.0.1.9 to be released on Steam or you will jump directly to 1.0.2.6 when it's ready? Is the water collision bug fixed in 1.0.1.9 or 1.0.2.6? Any fixes on controller input lag (I'm using an Xbox One S controller and there is definitely some lag)?

Thanks!

Linux is working so far.

There is a problem with switching TTYs: FPS goes down after 3-4 switches to ~10 FPS until the game is restarted (and I'm not quite sure how saving works. Do I loose all money if I restart the game after dying / before slaying the shade?). I blame the nvidia blob for that though... Or is anyone with open source graphics drivers having the same problem?

Edit: Oh, and achievements aren't working... probably because it's still beta?

They're working on a professional translation, it seems!

"Hollow Knight’s done super well in China, perhaps in part thanks to a fan translation that’s been circulating! Wow do fans work fast. We’re pursuing an official Chinese translation as we speak."

I remember that the game has over 40,000 words of dialogue, so it's likely to take a while.
