0.8.2 TEXTURE WORK OPTIMIZATION AND GAME SIZE REDUCTION
In this small update, we've implemented a variety of texture adjustments and optimizations. Hopefully to enhance the gameplay experience, particularly for users with lower-end PCs.
These changes wont be noticeable visually as we did not want to downgrade the game's visuals, the changes just aim to improve texture loading times and overall game stability.
Notably, we also managed to significantly reduce the game's size!
OPTIMISATION AND TEXTURE WORK
-Changed, tweaked and properly scaled textures to appropriate sizes to improve optimization
-The game should be faster and be more stable, with even a slight performance increase for some users with lower-end PCs
-Reduced game size by approximately 13 GB, bringing it down to 27GB!
OTHER
-Minor collision fixes on a few paths of the island
-Fixed some small texture issues/errors
-Slightly increased the number of wax statues
LOCALIZATION
-Fixed a few French and German localization errors (thanks to the comunity reports!)
