What's going on with the snow?

[Malicore]

I logged in my 3rd account and it patched. got into the game and no snow. cleared cahce and reentered. still no snow. I logged back in on one I was playing all day with snow, and now it's all gone on that account as well. mind you, each account is on a different copy of the game. so it's not 1 copy running 3 accounts. each account once logged off and back on, loses the snow.

Everything was fine for me, till we got this new patch

There was a mistake in the resource pathing for the event files, it's being looked into as I post this.

If you want to fix it yourself before it's officially hotfixed, go to resources->resource_paths.def and scroll down till you see.

{
string folder = "resources_event\hours_of_frost"
string start = "2017-01-01" // yyyy-mm-dd
string end = "2017-02-01"
}

simply change the end date to whatever you'd prefer. For some reason it was made the second of January... (not intended)

update: apologies, I was so busy in trying to find a work-around that I did not notice this does in fact use yyyy-mm-dd notation. so I'm not entirely sure whether the work-around I posted works. Still, the issue is being looked at.

Thanks. will give it a try.

Nope, doesn't change anything when I change the date. Let me know if you find something that works

The snow was gone yesterday for me, for a while, then it came back. Now it's gone again for me as well.

Thank you for the quick fix
