It also contains a few bug fixes, and some changes to the mod kit. This beta build is mostly to test major engine changes that have been made to support multiple platforms for Banished and future games. If you're into modding, you can get the beta mod kit here: BanishedKit_1.26.Beta.zip. This is usually C:\Program Files\Shining Rock Software\Banished\. Once downloaded, just unzip the archive into the folder where you have Banished installed. Previous versions of the game won't work with this patch. Note that you need to apply the patch to version 1.0.4. If you don't use Steam, you can download the patch here: BanishedPatch_1.0.4_To_1.26.Beta.zip. Select the drop down and pick Beta Test for 1.0.5. Select properties, and then in the windows that opens, select the BETAs tab.

If you have the game on Steam, go into your game library and right click on Banished. I'm going to be providing a bit of detail here for people that want to beta test and modders that want to try out the changes to the mod kit. I just uploaded the new beta build (This is version 1.0.5 Beta, build 151026) to Steam, and also a patch for those of you that have the stand alone version.
