Summary (AI)

Poker Night at the Inventory version 1.3.0 introduces several quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes. Player stats and unlocks are now saved separately from game settings for smoother device switching, and subtitles reflect uncensored dialogue when that mode is enabled. The update also resolves issues with item distribution during split pots and side pots, while adding new volume controls and scroll wheel adjustments for betting. Numerous audio, visual, and camera glitches have been fixed, and NPC behaviors have been polished to enhance gameplay consistency.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

Max no longer says "Thanks, guys!" when he's the last NPC at the table.
Your stats and unlocks are now saved separately from the game settings, so when you switch between devices, your unlocks, stats, and progress will come with you, but not your settings. This was especially notable for Steam Deck players who were bringing desktop graphics and sound settings with them when changing devices.
Ambient Sound now has its own volume slider in settings.
The Heavy's minigun sound now loops when everyone at the table draws their guns on Tycho. (And yep, we missed the looping minigun sound where he flips the table over but will get it in the next patch.)
Strong Bad doesn't leave his shovel floating above the table when dialog is skipped mid-shoveling.
When the player camera slides over to sit across the table from a character during heads-up play, your opponent now looks you in the eye, instead of looking at where you used to sit.
When Tycho is anxious about the next card in a showdown and covers his eyes in close-up shots, his finger no longer intersects his eyebrow. Finally we can all relax.
I won an item off a character but I don’t see it in my Team Fortress 2 backpack. Where’d it go? You have to launch TF2 after winning the item for it to appear in your inventory. If you’ve won the item and earned the Poker Night Steam achievement, and open Team Fortress 2 and still aren’t awarded the item, that is irregular and you should write Valve support.
How does the Down to the Green achievement work? There must be at least one other player left at the table when you win, you have to be all in, and you have to win two consecutive hands that way.
This isn't a question, but "Chkdsk" isn't a typo. Thank you to everyone who wrote in about it all the same!
