To all Kriegsmarine Crewmembers ready to dive into deep waters,
As promised in many places we prepared the first patch. As we put a lot of work into this and there are plenty of changes, we have a kind request for you.
- Go to properties of the game in the library,
- move to the last tab - BETAS,
- pick the Unstable branch from the drop-down menu,
- you now gained access to the patch,
- wait for the patch to be applied.
Can you try it out and leave any feedback you might have in this thread?

Please add output logs through:

The fixes are as follow:
- Disabled certain physics optimizations to fix crashes on CPUs that don't support SSE4 or AVX.
- Important performance improvements related to rendering.
- Noticeable optimizations to memory usage and execution time of terrain generation procedure. Fixed few related bugs found during stress tests.
- Fixed few RAM/VRAM memory leaks related to entering and leaving scene areas like ports.
- One of the AA guns in La Rochelle was sticking out of the port.
- Objective ordering player to equip breathing apparatus during tutorial could stay indefinitely on the screen.
- Engine gears could stay indefinitely blocked on the UI telegraph.
- Decreased resolution of some less important textures.
- FPP on-screen hints don't appear at the beginning of the tutorial, because they explain functions that are disabled at this point.
- Fixed multiple issues appearing after leaving tutorial by clicking the button on the mission completion message (not being able to leave upgrades view, missing saves and more).
TLDR: We tried to eliminate as many crashes origins as possible, we fixed the tutorial and some issues that happened after the tutorial when you moved to the sandbox.
We are still reading all your comments and move our forces to deal with any other things you report. You're the best! Thank you for all the kind words and faith in us. We won't disappoint you.
Yours,
Deep Water Studio
