Poker Night at the Inventory : Poker Night at the Inventory 1.4.0 Update
Poker Night at the Inventory 1.4.0 Update
Poker Night at the Inventory has been updated to version 1.4.0, which may be the best version of Poker Night yet. We hope so at least. This update focuses on the much-requested ability to play Poker Night in the background while doing other things, and we fixed some bugs and restored a few missing dialog lines while we were at it.
We added a few new quality of life features around background play and improved gamepad support:
• Poker Night can now optionally keep running in the background. Go to Gameplay Settings and turn « Pause When In Background » to « Off. »
• The game can now also automatically deal the next hand, skipping past the « Click anywhere to deal » screen entirely. Go to gameplay Settings and turn « Auto Deal Next Hand » to « On. » The host will still call out the raised blinds verbally, and you’ll see them up in the top UI as people around the table pay the blinds.
• When playing with a gamepad, you can now press Left Trigger to see your current call amount, and Right Trigger to see your bet amount.
This patch also fixes a bunch of bugs:
• Tells no longer occasionally play during showdowns and while skipping to the next hand.
• Fixed instances where a character’s acting performance would blend in on top of their poker playing animation, causing strange hovering hands or other visual glitches.
• The Heavy’s minigun sound now loops when he brings it out after a big loss. His laugh also doesn’t get cut off when he wins.
• Fixed the « Three Wise Men » achievement being possible when your Full House only had two wise men. Three kings are now required, as intended.
• Characters around the table will now more accurately look at the competitor they’re taunting about their bad hand.
• Characters around the table won’t play dialog that uses plural nouns when there are only two players left in the game.
• Fixed Tycho’s hair getting overly bright when he walks away from the table after busting out.
• Fixed mid-game music sometimes starting up a new track during showdowns.
• Fixed a bad game state that could be caused by adjusting your buy-in amount, saving and loading.
• Fixed empty pots not always getting removed properly, which may help resolve rare instances where someone can appear to win a hand after folding.
• Fixed a handful of pops and glitches, including: Strong Bad’s cards flying into his hand when he checks them before folding, Tycho popping in and out of a folded « leaning back » pose when he loses, and Max taking his chips twice when claiming the pot when he wins against Tycho.
• Added a bunch of missing poker chip sound effects.
• Found places where Tycho’s uncensored lines were still not showing up properly in subtitles, and fixed them. Also fixed a missing uncensored version of Tycho’s « I guess you don’t f*ck around » line.
• Fixed a bunch of little typos in subtitles.
And finally, we found a few short « check » and « fold » related lines of dialog that never got played in any version of the game due to logic errors in the dialog scripting. You’ll now occasionally hear them!
We also recently fixed a bunch of stuff in the
, so if you haven’t played in a bit and are wondering about another bug, it might have been fixed then. If not…
