Notes: A major (stable build) update to Virvius, The main fixes include GPU instancing and static batching which allows the Graphic Rendering to be handled in a correct way, as this improves Occlusion Culling of the game. Speaking of which, Occlusion Portals were added to movable walls and doors so the camera wont draw objects behind. It was taken into consideration to shut down moving objects in the scene when the player is out of range like enemies and pickup items, since materials were redesigned for GPU instancing, this allows for more enemies or objects of the same type and mesh to be rendered together which will increase a bit of performance.
