Significant performance improvements:
- Eliminated performance spikes in character editor, on all machines
- The character editor is now less GPU intensive when run in Low or Medium Quality modes
- Lighting improved in Low Quality mode to provide a better user experience
- Upon startup, the game detects and sets the appropriate Quality setting automatically
- Fixed bug: animation frames were sometimes skipped due to lag spikes, causing strange changes in gameplay (like recolored characters or unintended projectile behavior)
Other fixes:
- Improved stability of the character editor (very few crashes remain, as far as we've seen.)
We hope the performance improvements allow players on any PC to enjoy the game! 😊
