v1.34.3 Patch Notes
This patch is intended to fix the Ultra High DPI Monitor issue we were seeing in the bug reports that prevented the game from running full-screen on those really fancy ultra-wide gaming monitors.
Special thanks to Chaplin for providing some additional help that allowed me to reproduce the issue. Awaiting a confirmation that we've resolved it for certain and then I'll update this post :)
Update (4/16/24):
We have confirmation that this fix does solve problem. However, if a player has previously rasterized the graphics in the old version, it's necessary to clear the cache so the patched version can re-rasterize the textures within the GPU resource limits.
Here's how to do that:
1) Force the rasterizer by exiting full screen (Ctrl+F) then re-enter full-screen mode (Ctrl+F) again.
or
2) Delete the existing cache: C:\Users[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\com.d20studios.abalon\Local Store\assetCache and restart the game
Minor versions don't require re-rasterization of the graphics which is why this manual process is needed. When we update the game to next major version (1.35) the rasterization will occur automatically.
Infinite Loading/Black Loading Screen:
I’d also love to create a proper fix for the black screen/failed loading issue.
I’ve been unable to reproduce this bug, so if you’re experiencing this and would be willing to chat with me on Discord, I’m sure I could get it resolved.
Thanks for your continuing feedback and support everyone!
