XR Speed Boost


For the past few weeks, VaultDweller has been tweaking and streamlining the silverback rendering engine to make it more performant. In tests on various hardware, significant FPS boosts have been recorded in LOW setting mode (on my low powered laptop, for instance, a boost from 60 to 73 FPS).

VaultDweller's modifications have been released today as an RC3 patch.
He is now focusing on improving GLSL shaders rendering for HIGH setting mode.

We hope you will enjoy the nitro injection!

I've also been working on a low config last week that increases the FPS on crowded servers. That was possible by modifying the weapon effects of all weapons that contain particles to something that is just as good playable as before but with better performance. As mentioned in the XR Role Call thread: making the weather and the fire effect scale option working again will allow further FPS optimization.

Absolutely!

From updater? It was already removed! If you still got it (Christmas is never early!), you can just remove [LE]xmas0.s2z[/LE] file from /game folder.
