Hey guys, we have a quick update that fixes some stuff we found after publicly shipping, thanks to your feedback!

We'd also like to address a few common issues with the performance test:

• Vulkan crashing on exit: normal, your data will send. Essentially the crash is saying that the Vulkan renderer closed.
• Program not launching: Please try the itch.io app. This solves many issues, and also produces better errors in case the issue is not fixed.
• Linux version: we weren't able to ship a stable version at this time. Hopefully we will be able to share one in a future update. Please do not use Wine to run the test, as this will produce bad data for us.
• Virus detected: This is a false positive, due to the game being new and the shortcuts using a .bat to .exe converter to select command line arguments for the rendering interface.

Fixes

• Fixed shadow artifacting
• Tuned ambient occlusion
• Rebaked reflection environment
• Forced exclusive fullscreen
• Force disabled V-Sync
• Fixed some analytics data not properly reporting
• Disabled level streaming hysteresis to prevent delayed clean up
• Fixed cases of hitches from level streaming
• Reduced memory packing strictness due to favorable metrics
• Improved particle performance with async ticking
• Tuned file open order to reduce read latency
• Fixed color grading LUT to better match the lighting style of the performance test
• Fixed some limitations with alternative renderers that were causing instability and low performance
