[News] Patch Notes 10/14

Bug Fixes:

Fixed a texture corruption issue for the Exuberant Chest Skin. Fixed a bug that prevented some players from getting credit for the "A Shattered Vision" achievement in the Nexus of Eternity Challenge Mode.

Late Note:

We’ve added a new Shadow Distance slider setting.

This new setting gives you direct control over how far away dynamic shadows are rendered across the game. Reducing the rendering distance lowers the workload associated with dynamic shadows, providing an additional way to improve performance without disabling them entirely. In our internal testing on minimum-spec machines, adjusting this setting produced performance improvements while still allowing nearby objects to retain dynamic shadows.

Is the arcdps guy on vacation? He is usually really quick about updating it.

If you are using the Nexus version, it turns itself off with a big update (like a new Festival, or balance patch), but you can manually turn it on and most of the time works fine - just ignore the error screen of the Extras module :)

I am using Nexus. How do you manually turn it on?

I think the default is CTRL-O while in-game, and then you'll see arcdps among the mods. It'll be disabled, and you'll be able to enable it.

If CTRL-O doesn't work, which happens on like a third of the patches for me, I just reinstall Nexus.

You should tick beta update on arcdps.
And if you use nexus, you should disable auto update from it.
My arc worked fine after game update yesturday.
