[h2]Hi everyone![/h2] Here is [i]Atlas Fallen: Reign of Sand[/i]'s latest patch. Make sure you read the entire note! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42850092/575ec4c0332bc14811be79aa53c53df0bdcb7ae5.jpg[/img] [h2]PERFORMANCE[/h2] Added an experimental option to fix the stutters that players with uncapped FPS suffered when playing with high frequency monitors (requires more powerful PCs and changes to settings.json file). This allows you to manually set the rate at which all game systems are updated (including camera movement, which was the main culprit for the stuttery feeling encountered at high framerate). [h3]How to enable the fix:[/h3] [list] [*] Download the file available on Focus Together [url=https://community.focus-entmt.com/focus-entertainment/atlas-fallen/blogs/98-patch-5-4-is-now-live]here[/url] [*] Replace your settings file with the pre-made one you just downloaded, it will activate the fix, but it will reset all the rest of your options to defaults. [/list] [h3]Formatting tips:[/h3] [list] [*] Make sure to respect the formatting of the json file (spaces, tabulations ...etc.). [*] If you add the line in the middle of the text block, don't forget the comma at the end of it. It will not work without it. [*] If the line that you add is the last line, it doesn't need a comma at the end. [/list] [h3] Warnings & Guidelines:[/h3] [list] [*] The higher you set the value, the more resource intensive the game will become, which can lead to potential slowdowns. [*] We advise to try this experimental fix only if your system specs are vastly above the recommended specs for the game. [*] If you want to try the fix, we advise to first set the setting's value to a framerate that your machine can hit most of the time in game (for example, if your machine can play the game at an average of 100 fps, even in intensive situations, then you can start with the setting's value to 100). [*] If the game doesn't behave well with a high value, reducing it should help performance (for example, if a value of 100 leads to slowdowns, you can try 90 or 80, and adjust based on your tests' results). [*] On the contrary, if the game runs well with the value that you set, then you can try to progressively crank up the value, to reach the smoothest experience possible. [*] If you want to go back to the default behavior of the game, simply put the value to 60 (default), or delete the line from the settings file. [/list] [h2]STABILITY[/h2] [list] [*] In some rare cases, when the EOS matchmaking option is enabled, crash may happen when quitting the game or going into co-op mode. If that happens, disabling the EOS matchmaking option should fix the issue. [*] Fixed a crash that happened with specific SteamDeck settings changes [*] Fixed an issue that caused players to have a black screen during one of the tutorials [*] Fixed an issue that caused Corruption Breach events to end when playing in co-op and the host dies [*] Fixed a crash that happens when disconnecting from co-op sessions after one of the player dies [*] Fixed an issue that caused the game to stop responding after players change both the frame and refresh rate to 30 under specific conditions [*] Fixed a crash that happened when reloading save files multiple times at a specific location [*] Improved stability on XBSS: Fixed an issue that caused the game to crash when players died repeatedly [/list] [h2]GAMEPLAY[/h2] [list] [*] Fixed an issue that caused the Essence Stone “Saving Grace” to not work properly [*] Fixed an issue that caused the “Idol of Salvation” to not work properly [*] Fixed an issue that caused two audio logs to be duplicated [*] Fixed an issue that caused the Knuckledust weapon to be unavailable during NG+ under specific conditions [*] Fixed an issue that caused the Knuckledust weapon and loadout presets to be unlocked at the wrong time when converting save files from the base game that were at a specific point in the game [*] Fixed an issue that caused chests to not be displayed correctly when at a Vantage Point [*] Fixed an issue in which specific items would not get awarded to co-op partners upon collecting them thus preventing getting 100% of the game and/or certain achievements/trophies [*] Fixed an issue that caused enemies to stop attacking players after starting NG+ [*] Fixed an issues where players could skip the save conversion process from base game into Reign of Sand edition leading to further issues [*] Fixed an issue that caused certain bosses to take extra damage in NG+ [*] Fixed an issue that caused the player character to no longer take damage after rekindling a specific boss fight [*] Fixed an issue that caused the achievement/trophy “Forgemaster” to not unlock for guest players under specific conditions in co-op [*] Adjusted the cost for weapon upgrades in NG+ [*] Fixed an issue that caused players to be blocked if they used up all of their essence before reaching the locked sockets tutorial [/list] [h2]VISUAL[/h2] [list] [*] Fixed an issue that caused the healing VFX of the Essence Stone (Beastial Claws) to remain on screen [*] Fixed a visual issue that caused several artifacts when Idol and Shatter Attacks were used multiple times in quick succession. [*] Fixed a visual issue that caused options in the Anvil Menu to be grayed out when they shouldn’t (and the opposite for when they shouldn’t) [*] Fixed a visual issue that caused the Anvil menu to display a broken reference under specific conditions [/list] [h2]UI[/h2] [list] [*] Fixed an issue that caused the profile name on XBOX to not be properly displayed when changing languages [*] Fixed an UI issue that caused icons in the save file to display a broken reference upon dying and reloading [*] Fixed an UI issue that displayed the wrong option for opening chests [*] Fixed an UI issue that caused the “rekindle” option to not be available after completing a challenge [*] Fixed an issue that caused certain tutorial prompts to not be displayed properly under specific conditions [*] Fixed an issue that caused tutorials in NG+ to not be displayed properly [/list]
