Pocketpair released a new Palworld patch, and this times it eliminates a certain situation in which Pal may sleep forever if put at a breeding farm. The full patch notes also detailed that save data with over 7,000 captured pals will work again.
With the sleeping beauty Pals, this fixes an issue that only applied to manual breeding farm placement. Apparently once the patch is applied, people will be able to wake them up again.
As for the save file issue, this is the second part of a fix. Pocketpair first started working on the issue at the beginning of February 2024. That first patch essentially prevented the crashes tied to catching over 7,000 Pals from happening. This one finishes the job by fixing save files that were still crashing because of the problem.
Here are the full patch notes for Palworld v0.1.4.1 for PCs via Steam and v0.1.1.4 for the Xbox One and Xbox Series X.
▼Major Fixes
・Fixed an issue where the game would always crash and save data would be corrupted when the total number of Pals captured by the guild reached approximately 7000.
・In the previous patch, save data that had already been in this state (for servers, the server’s world data) remained in a broken state that made it impossible to load, but after applying this patch it will be resolved and will load properly.
・Fixed an issue where some weapons equipped by other players would disappear when a player used a grenade in multiplayer.
・Fixed an issue where, although the displayed capture probability increased when the capture power was strengthened with Lifmunk Effigies, the capture probability did not actually increase at all due to an internal processing bug.
▼Base related
・Fixed an issue where if a Pal that was manually assigned to a breeding farm went to sleep, it would not wake up forever.
・Fixed an issue where no wood would drop when Pal at the base felled a tree.
▼Others
・Implemented countermeasures against some cheats and exploits.
Palworld is available for the PC, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One in early access.
