Beamdog's Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition has received a new Head Start patch that mostly focuses on bugfixing, while the developers continue to work on adding new features to the game. Beamdog's Trent Oster and Phil Daigle go over a few of these upcoming features in their latest livestream, where they also ask for additional player input and answer some mod-related questions.

And here are the patch notes for the latest patch:

v74.8155 Fixes

• Fixed a rare case where custom content with empty scripts in the caching list would trigger a nullptr dereference.
• Fixed three more memleaks in ResMan, in Party Object handling, and in mouse cursor loading respectively.
• Fixed a client crash on game exit related to the ingame messages UI.
• A serious issue with shadow edges generation has been fixed. Complex custom models, like some Project Q creatures, would show visual corruption. In 1.69, this resulted in writing to invalid memory and likely triggered random client crashes.

Regression Fixes

• TXI command rotatetexture was not handled properly in the new shaders; as a result, some models had misaligned textures (cf. city interior carpets). This is now fixed.
• SetName used to crash when multiple players were online. It doesn’t anymore.
• We missed sending updated area names to load screens and the DM chooser list.
