Version 3.70 beta is available on Steam as beta-branch you can opt-into at will.
Lifetime members can find the beta version at the designated forum section.
On Steam there's now also Summer Sale going on.
Beta release on Itch will follow next week.

Things are fairly stable already, but as it's beta release the bug potential is higher than usual.
Also, some features are still pending to be polished to their final stage in patches to follow.

The key features of version 3.70 version deal with the moon and the moonlight, fibre processing with new textilecraft skill, snow penalty for all the creatures and snow crust, new character portraits, tying equipment adjustments, craftable fishing rods and usage of baits, option for metric units, and so on.
The list of additions and fixes is long. You can take a look at it here.

Phew! It's been quite a bit of content to add.
Let's keep our fingers crossed for the possible beta bugs being minor and scarce. But whatever their size and annoyance level may be, we've got our bows prepared for shooting them down.

I really like the lighting effects and how the visible area changes minute by minute. It's swidden and before it would've been bright at night for all the eye can see, but there are some clouds and it is late at night and my character can only see one tile ahead of him, but I can see the moon is about to rise so it only stays this dark for a few minutes before getting a little brighter again, first a few tiles and then a few more.

Maybe i'm somewhat stupid, but where to get the 3.70 as i suggest to be a lifetimer since 2005-2006 having bought the game for 20 or 40$? (sorry can't exactly remember date or sum ;-))

Or i'm not a lifetimer?

Your current member state on these forums is visible to all users: just you look at this page and your name in your last post. You will see that you are listed as "Member" whereas the poster above you -Plotinus- is listed as "Honorary Lifetime Supporter Member"; in summary currently you are not designated as lifetimer.

If you paid USD20.00 you probably are not a lifetimer this is based on my assumption that it never was that cheap to become a lifetimer but do check your emails just to confirm the amount you paid years ago - assuming you still have the emails from the purchase day...

If you paid USD40.00 you should be 'Honorary Lifetime Supporter Member' (this is based on Sami's post here: https://www.unrealworld.fi/forums/index.php?topic=943.msg2622#msg2622 ) and if that's the case, I suggest you find your proof of purchase email in your mailbox and then share the details (name/date etc.) with Sami in an email or forums private message. He then should be able to add you to the relevant group so that in the forums you appear as lifetimer and gain access to lifetimers board (with lifetimer download links etc.).
This could be a good day to utilize your squirrels hides.

Mmm, ages ago i was here on old-version-forum with another name, Graxior (or maybe Dmitriy Balashov), but somehow i've fallen out for years and forgotten the password, then version changed and since i lost my old email (graxior@mail.ru), i couldn't restore it.

Just found the old archive from the program that now don't work, but maybe Sami remembers me. ;-)
There are dozen other messages, but i saved only the last registration code.
Adding to this there also was a credit card problem while purchasing the game.

Hello there, Dmitriy,

    The UnReal World lifetime registration code
===================================================

 Here is your personal registration code:

        Registration name: DMITRIY BALASHOV

 The archive/e-mail you have received also includes
 a registration file called:

And this one was sent to Sami in 2006, when the 200 items per tile limit was critical.

Okay. That helps.
So try not to push number of items at the area up to its maximum
and see if it helps.
I do tests with many items also and try to find out the exact cause.

Grax, you should be good, but you’ll get Lifetime Supporter tag faster by emailing Sami directly. (His email below does direct to the current @unrealworld.fi)

I did the same for mine, I think I originally bought the game around late 1990s... no access to the email.

I’m pretty sure I paid only 30FMK. Finnish marks, which had exchange rate of 5.94596 FMK to 1 EUR... yeah, I think I paid (originally) just bit under 6EUR for lifetime supporter. Although it was ~23 years ago. It could’ve well been 60FMK  ;D
I’ve since donated more to the Elks.

Simply e-mail me, I'll check things up, and it all starts clearing up from there.
