- [LIVE + BETA] Patch v1.3.2 | Hotfix & Final Content Patch - 20 July 2026
Important Notice Hello everyone. I'll continue to provide support and fixes for Vincemus if any critical issues arise. However, With Hotfix Patch v1.3.2 for Vincemus. I am announcing my intention to halt the progress of any new content. No new aircraft, missions, features, or balance changes will be shipped. As much as I loved working on the game, a lot of the core systems used by Vincemus aren't available on newer versions of Unity and the project has become very difficult to work with. I've tried to modularise the project since release with some success however the current code structure makes adding modding support or proper downloaded content(DLC’s) impossible without rebuilding from the ground up. Between fighting old code and a deprecated engine, I sadly have to announce that Vincemus will not be receiving any of the planned or new content updates. Thank you to everyone who suppor…

- Dev Update - A New Vincemus on the horizon - 22 March 2024
Hello everyone! I’m making this post to inform you all on what’s been happening since the long silence I had from almost anything social media related. First of all, I am going to apologise for the absence of any update on the development of Vincemus or the addition of any new content patch to Vincemus. Throughout the time spent away from social media I’ve been programming away designing new modular systems that not only integrate into Vincemus but into other new projects & game designs. I also didn’t want it half baked either, So I took my time developing and creating tools to help development of such systems. This has led to the next release for Vincemus to be A LOT slower then usual, but on the other hand this should not only make development faster for generic core systems. It should also make the backend for Vincemus require a lot less manual labor and time can be spent creating co…
- Dev Update - 12 October 2023
Hello everyone, Taking a rest from the computer. I am writing to inform you that I will be going away for 3 weeks. During this time, development of the next patch will be slowed down. I’ll still be reachable through discord & steam, but you may expect a delayed response. I understand the importance of making Vincemus a fully released game. Rest assured, I will do my best to catch up on outstanding work upon my return. Thank you for your understanding for my absence. I am looking forward to coming back. Please If you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out to me through Discord or on the steam forums. Update on the next Vincemus Update For the next patch I've decided to rework the input system as the current one has yet to fill the new requirements we have for Vincemus. I've also decided to do overhauls to the backend and create tools to reduce…
- Patch 1.0.2e | Rebinding fix - 14 September 2023
Patch 1.0.2e | Rebinding fix Summary: Hello, been bit since another patch. I’m still working on the next patch but a bug for controller has been reported and as it stops the game from being playable.

Changes - Trains health has been reduced by 50% - AI Me262 LOD has been increased to make it visible at further distances Bug Fixes - TBD payloads not equipping the correct payload preset -…

- Patch 1.0.1a - A maybe working hotfix - 29 July 2023
Patch 1.0.1a Maybe Working Hotfix Summary: Putting out a hot fix to for the problems everyone is having with Times and unlocking achievements. I’ve also reduced the amount of all bullets fired from AI by 50% while upping tracer fire. it should look the same visually, but DPS of AI will be reduced & objects in the scene will be less by 50% so while AI are in combat it should reduce the amount of processing needed. Patch V1.0.1a Summary - Changes - Reduced AI fire-rate, while increasing tracers per rack to increase performance - Reworked LODs a tad on ships - AI AOA increased but their Gimbaling is reduced. This allows more pre-firing but reduced the room for error with the AI guns - Bomb lifetime & prediction range increased - BugFixes - Fixed best timers not being saved after missions - Some missions couldn’t be passed if not completed correctly, I’ve made it more lenient (Basically kil…
