Large pass to LOD additional static and skeletal meshes all over the game.Large optimization pass to reduce unnecessary ticks happening to reduce load on the CPU.Optimized combat lighting to make it less taxing on the GPU.Optimized lighting and baked lightmaps in Baedish Lowlands, Skara Brae, Inshriach, Castle Langskaal, Mangar’s Tower, Boar Temple, Necromancers Spire, Orkan Rookery, Barrows, and Einaar.Fixed a crash on launch issue for Windows accounts that contained non-ASCII characters.Unfortunately, Legacy Mode will not be part of the third patch as we originally suggested, as this feature is a larger project, and we did not want that feature to reduce the cadence of our updates in the meantime.įor details on this patch, please check out the notes below. We expect this to be out in approximately 10 days when this work has been completed.īeyond that, we will be focusing on additional optimization, fixes, and Legacy Mode. Moving forward, we are already working on the third patch that will have additional optimization and load time fixes.

Additional notable fixes in this patch include a resolution to a problem some people experienced during launch where non-ASCII characters in Windows usernames would cause a game crash, UI support for widescreen and non 16-9 aspect ratios, large localization updates across all languages, clean-up pass to the mini-map (including adding save totems to it), lots of ability clean-up and description work, and various balance tweaks. We also continued our improvements to loading times.

We have made some great gains in this area across all quality settings and we will continue to improve it in the upcoming next patch. In this patch, our team's main focus was continuing to improve optimization of the game across both the GPU and the CPU.

Once again, thank you for all the feedback you provided. The second patch for The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep is live, and it is a big one.
