Hi there ye seadogs!
We've got another small update for you. We've been receiving quite a few complaints about performance and have noticed ourselves that we've seem to have lost some FPS along the last few weeks so we did some digging. Not to find treasures for once, but to find the culprit of the problem and we found it. Something was amiss with the ship lamps that caused a big drop in performance whenever a ship would have default (orange) lanterns. We also spotted some other strangeness that caused some performance issues with the floating wood crates, that as well is now fixed. Below the full patch notes:
Performance increase / bug fixing:
- Big performance leak fixed with ship lanterns when using default (orange) lanterns
- Collision overhead fixed with seagulls above floating wood crates which also improves performance
Video options:
- You can now choose between temporal anti-aliasing (Temporal AA) and fast approximate anti-aliasing (FXAA)
- Added "Ultra" setting for anti-aliasing
- Renamed lowest anti-aliasing setting from "Low" to "Off"
Servers:
- There should now be a few more pre-games ready to receive players in Europe and Russia
Hopefully these fixes and optimisations will give you pirates some smoother sailing!
