v0.25b part 2 - hotfix

Hey Everyone,

 

Here's another small hotfix, this time (hopefully) completely fixing the issue some cards were having with new ocean causing game to crash. All cards should now be able to turn on Wave Displacement quality mode in options settings. (although slower cards may want to keep to flat for performance reasons)

 

It turned out to be a texture format (R8) we were using for the ocean that wasn't supported by all models of cards!

 

Additionally, whilst testing we found the sharks had been missing this patch, so also fixed them.

 

v 0.25b part 2 hotfix:

 

 

  • Fixed issue with new ocean crashing on some model cards (older ati cards, some integrated laptop cards), let us know if this still happens for anyone
  • Fixed sharks missing from ocean!
 

 

As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub
