Hi folks,

What a title! Yes, today's update has all of them. In less than a week, it will officially be the first-year anniversary of Erannorth Renaissance (well, technically one year since leaving Early Access, but still).

Over the past year, there have been dozens of new features and content additions, some bigger and others smaller in post release updates. All vastly expanding the world and what you can do in it.

There have also been some really nice mods during this time, but our modding scene hasn't quite taken off, just yet. Perhaps a modding contest could change that?

Modding Contest

So, here are the terms: Create a mod for Erannorth Renaissance specifically for this contest. Sadly, older mods won't be eligible to participate. Upload it to the Workshop from today until the 1st of November. You can find many modding resources and share your mod's link in the modding channel on our Discord. We'll be back here to vote on the 2nd of November.

The top three mods will win the amazing prize of bragging rights, along with their choice of 3 keys for any of my Erannorth games and/or DLCs.

I am looking forward to seeing your creations!

Back to our latest update: as I mentioned, we have Gnomes, Custom Journal Entries, and a new Level Scaling setting. This small update, has been in beta for a while, so it is about time to get it into everyone's hands. Among other things, it brings a highly requested feature to disable region level scaling. The new option, "Bask in Your Glory," basically sets the minimum region level to 1.

This way, enemies will always be at your level or lower, allowing you to overpower them regardless of where you are. Without this setting enabled, the world remains dangerous and unforgiving if you wander into areas higher than your level. By default, this option is turned off, just as the world's cruel deities intended.



Additionally, you can now write custom notes and stories in your journal to make the world and its denizens feel more personal. To get started, click on the new My Journey button.



Finally, Gnomes have joined the roster of playable species.





And that's all folks! If you encounter any issues let me know and I'll get into fixing it as soon as possible. Have fun!

Patch Notes - 01/10/26 # 1.2.90

• Added Gnomes as a playable species and included them in the random NPC generator.
  
• Added a codex entry for Gnomes.
  
• You can now create your own custom notes or stories in the Journal within the "My Journey" section. You can also remove or update these entries as needed. (Note: entries will update during runtime, but they are saved along with your character data only after you save the game.)
  
• Added a new setting: "Bask in Your Glory." It sets the minimum region level to 1, so enemies are always at your level or lower.
