Vintage Story incremental update

Vintage Story 1.22.0-rc.3 was published on the official Vintage Story blog and is available to download through the game’s account manager, with the post authored by Tyron and labeled an unstable release as the team continues the road to a stable 1.22. (vintagestory.at: ) (vintagestory.at) Fishing mechanics were rebalanced in RC3: maximum fish per location was reduced from 15 to 12 and the minimum “general fish frequency” was raised from 0% to 20%, and players can now exchange bait on the fishing pole. (vintagestory.at: ) (vintagestory.at) The release notes state that some fish will be bait-restricted in a subsequent update, signaling a move toward species-specific bait requirements rather than uniform catch rates. (vintagestory.at: ) (vintagestory.at) API and modding fixes in RC3 include an explicit change allowing inFirepitProps to be set to null in JSON, a fix to properly reset spawn when RemainingUses reaches 0, and a correction for JSON patches that targeted properties with integers in the path. (vintagestory.at: ) (vintagestory.at) Inventory and container tweaks were added: chains, scales, lamellae, ingots, rods and bosses are now stackable in cabinets, cabinet doors can be removed with wrench + sprint + right‑click, and cabinet shelf model volumes were adjusted to better match actual space. (vintagestory.at: ) (vintagestory.at) RC3 also patches several persistent bugs: a ModDB “Bad Request” error when connecting to servers with multiple missing mods was fixed, treasure hunters stopped selling old-chunk treasure maps, dungeons were corrected so /wgen regen can regenerate them, and fixes were applied for upgrading very old worlds (1.18/1.19) that could place worldgen features too close to the resonance archives. (vintagestory.at: ) (vintagestory.at) Vintage Story is developed by Anego Studios under lead developer Tyron (TyronX), and the prior stable release listed on the community version history was 1.21.6, published December 13, 2025.
