• Patch Notes 1.9.8 - Additional Collections, New Perks - 18 May 2026

  In this patch you may now do "Additional Collections" to spend 10 reputation to get 10 ticks of income. You need a net income of at least $1,000/tick to use it. This will also give you 10 aggression, which will hurt your income while it ticks down. The button is on the map screen. I have added two new perks. The first is "Collection Gangs", which doubles the income from "Additional Collections". The next perk is "Athletics". This gives a small 10% HP boost, increases sprint speed by 25% and quadruples your sprint and swim timers. Your sprint meter will recharge at the same rate, but decrease at 1/4 of the un-perked rate. This makes your character go fassssst Finally I multithreaded texture decoding on game startup. Before the game would load each texture one-by-one. Now a thread pool loads each file, decodes it, does DXT compression and mipmap generation. Finally it is uploaded to openg…

• Patch Notes: Version 1.9.7 - 10 April 2026

  Patch Notes This patch adds two features - firstly added a Moon Biome option for the map generation. Secondly you can now remove captured bandit bases from the map with the "Raze Bandit Base" button. This will convert it to an empty lot, but level up a nearby bandit base. In terms of bug fixes I have hopefully fixed the fix of the fix of the "Exit To Menu" freeze bug I have also upgraded the crash logger so it can properly log crashes outside of the main thread Turf 2 News Turf 2 is in the works. Join the the discord and follow the #dev-log channel for updates. I am also posting my git log on the #git-log channel https://discord.gg/UDV6qGj Voxel Turf Soundtrack I have uploaded the game soundtrack onto Youtube for you to enjoy: Full Change Log VERSION 1.9.7 - 09/04/26 =========== - - Added Moon biome maps VERSION 1.9.6 - 08/04/26 =========== - - You can now Raze captured bandit bases. Th…

• Patch Notes 1.9.4 - 18 November 2024

  This patch is a minor patch that fixes some bugs and greatly improves crash logging. I've been having issues with the previous crashlogger (drmingw) creating blank logs meaning that I cannot fix issues as I cannot a) replicate them on my machines and b) debug them because I don't know where in the code they are happening. Now I've backported the crashlogger from Turf 2 into Voxel Turf and it works a lot better, particularly in multithreaded environments. VERSION 1.9.4 =========== - - Upgraded crash logging by porting Turf 2's crash logger into Voxel Turf. Fixed crash loggers not creating logs at all + not creating logs for crashes in child threads - - Fixed a bunch of compiler warnings VERSION 1.9.3 =========== - - Graphics Settings menu now displays system info, and can copy current system info + settings to the clipboard - - Fixed bug with fluid rendering (water/lava/sludge) that caus…

• Patch Notes: Version 1.9.2 - 25 July 2023

  This small update adds some logging for mod loading to report errors that vtclient/vtserver encounter for ease of debugging mods. It also updates some libraries (Steamworks and SDL2) to their latest versions. VERSION 1.9.2 =========== - - vtclient: Fixed (harmless) heap overrun when drawing - - vtserver: Added /s as alias for /status, now displays 5 rows, entries with total tick time less than 2ms are ignored - - Both vtclient and vtserver create a log file for loading mods (logs/mod_load_(client/server).log). The log file has a summary of detected errors at the end. In addition, the client will show errors when started - - Updated steamworks from version 1.42 (Jan 2018) to 1.57 (April 2023) - - Updated SDL2 from 2.0.2 (linux)/2.0.9 (windows) to 2.28.1 - - Added a progress bar to the steam loading screen

• Patch 1.9.1 Notes - New Prison Control Point! Massive Performance Boost (+50%) - 24 September 2022

  HOTFIX 1.9.1 - Fixes some issues, scroll down to see the changelog Old Prison Control Point: Finally a new big control point! The Old Prison: The prison is about the same size as the Military base but can be attacked right from the game start (although its really not recommended). The reward for holding it is +5 Allure which will help you unlock perks faster. It starts at Level 3 and has a maximum level of 10. Massive Performance Increase: This patch uses a combination of rendering techniques to increase performance and also removes redundant rendering and uploading of meshes to the GPU. I was going to make these in Turf2 but I needed some scenes to see what kind of performance gain can be obtained. Rather than making a dummy scene in T2 I've decided to juice up VT's rendering engine and get some real world experience implementing them. Voxel Turf has different rendering techniques for…

• Patch Notes: 1.8.1 - MP Lag Fixes - 4 August 2022

  I recently joined an MP game hosted where the players were complaining of poor performance, and I identified some issues and fixed them. These performance upgrades mainly effect big MP maps, but because SP runs on an internal server SP get some small benefit. The two issues were to do with unloading chunks and autosaving. The server was checking *every* chunk *every tick* for *every player*. With 10k+ chunks loaded and 5 players running around this server chunk unloading was taking 200+ms every ticks! I've since changed it so that the server only checks a max 200 chunks for unloading every tick, and this number goes down if there are more players on the server. This check is effectively instant now. The second issue was with autosaving. For whatever reason it was taking 5 seconds to save lot data on their machine. On my test-big-map (16x16km) I was getting 500ms to save lot data. I have…

• Patch Notes: Version 1.8.0 - 10 July 2021

  Patch 1.8.0 adds an Observatory Control Point and Stat Monitoring Widgets along with minor bug fixes. In addition, Bandits will now occasionally attempt to retake captured bandit bases. The Stat Windows can be spawned by pressing TAB, then navigating to Players and Diplomacy, then pressing the "Spawn Stats Window" button at the bottom of the window. Stats windows let you monitor Networth/Territory/Bases Owned/Bandit Bases Captured/Control Points Owned/Special Buildings Owned for each faction. Full Changelog: VERSION 1.8.0 - 10/07/2021 =========== - - Bandits (owner == 0) in base attacks/control points no longer wear colours - - MTTH for bandits to retake a bandit base increased to 15 minutes VERSION 1.8.0-RC1 - 04/07/2021 =========== - - Added Stats windows! You can spawn one from the Players menu - - Added an Observatory as a control point! - - Bandits can recapture bandit bases if the…

• Patch 1.6.7 Notes - Basements and Bug Fixes - 18 April 2020

  This small patch lets you save basements with template lots and helps prevent disconnects between vtserver and vtclient when doing stuff with big maps. VERSION 1.6.7 - 28/04/2020 ========== - - Fixed yOffset not being saved when server is shut down, causing basements to be lost on load and buildings to be elevated.

• Patch 1.6.4 - Mini-Update - Repair Mechanics + Item Drops - 27 January 2020

  This is a small patch that adds a warning dialog before repairing a lot that has been built upon since being insured, and adds ranged pickup of item drops. Items within 3m of you will be drawn towards you and make a pop sound upon being picked up. VERSION 1.6.4 - 26/01/2020 ========== - - Repairing a lot with blocks manually placed or removed after insuring will spawn a warning - - Repairing a lot with blocks manually placed or removed via the macro-repair will generate a tooltip saying that it won't repair those lots and will not repair those lots - - If a chest is to be removed by repairing a lot its contents will be ejected - - Items drops within 3 meters of you will now be gravitationally attracted to you after 2 seconds of spawning - - Added a sound effect for picking up items

Desert maps consist of sandy plains littered with the occasional cacti, hilly regions of sand, and oases with palm trees.

• Patch 1.5.3 News: Military Base Update! Achievements! Custom Roads! MP Server Reset and More! - 13 April 2019

  1.5.3 Update Hotfix 1.5.3 fixes some graphics artefacts (colour bleeding at distances) + improves smoothness of the game + fixes minor bugs. It also adds a setting to set a target Frame Rate. See changes at the bottom for details. EDIT: 2019/04/19 - Released a hotfix to the hotfix that fixes and issue that caused the draw distance to be drastically reduced.

• Patch Notes 1.4.3 - Performance Improvements, QoL + UI Improvements, New Walls + More - 12 January 2019

  I've done some work to boost the game's performance, particularly on big maps, and I've also made some QoL improvements Big Map Performance Improvements Two things were causing slowdown with very big maps. On the client (the renderer, vtclient.exe), the main thing slowing it down was runaway chunk counts, on the server it was out of control entity counts. I fixed runaway chunk counts on the client and runaway entity counts on both the client + server, resulting in *massive* performance gains for playing on big maps. It seems like there's been perf gains in Singleplayer too, but I haven't benchmarked them. Chunk Unloader Optimisation (Details) While the client did unload out-of-range chunks, it was nowhere near aggressive enough, resulting in situations where the chunk loader was running faster than the chunk unloader. This could mean that after flying around the world you could have 20k…

• Patch 1.4 Info! PLANES! MP Server Reset! Map Mods, New Video and More! - 27 December 2018

  Video https://youtu.be/M0ZbfJiKiwo Be sure to subscribe for more videos + updates! New Vehicle I've added a Light Plane vehicle! The plane can remove blocks and take damage if it hits something!

In a Unified Factions all investment income goes into a pool and is split amongst the online players. In a Bloc factions individuals keep their money. Individuals that are part of a faction are no longer independent and can no longer engage in diplomacy. Joining a faction will void any alliances, guarantees and warnings that you have. Instead, the faction itself can ally/guarantee/warn outside forces. Factions have 3 tiers of membership. Normal members (can't do diplomacy), trustees (can do diplomacy), an…
