Techland Announce Dying Light (PS3/360/PC/PS4/XBOXONE)

May be Steam > Dying Light properties > Beta tab at a guess?

 

That option has been enabled since it was available. The OSD works in every other 64bit game I have. I'll mess around with it some more when I get home from work.

 

The tab that requires an access code to unlock the beta?

 

Exactly. I know a guy from Techland. He gave me that code to give it a try.
Anyway, the update is released now.

Looks like the game was updated.

EDIT: Seems I also completely missed that part of K-Putt's reply.


EDIT:

There goes the current mod support I guess, depends on what was changed.

 

Ah right...well maybe the person who mentioned the beta patch can share the access code? Pretty please!

 

Nice, good thing i didnt rush into game before fix's.

 

YYYEEESSS!
View distance 100% no framerate drop Good job!

 

[/QUOTE]

In case anyone else is having this issue with freezing and cut scenes being broken, it turned out to be Nvidia DOF that was causing the issue. Turned it off and now there's very little stuttering.

 

New patch made the game way smoother. The second area feels so much better.

 

So is this 13 MB patch now officially released then?

How much of a difference does it make to performance? Anyone else with a single GTX 980?

 

Saw someone post that 100% View Distance is now = 25% pre patch. Or something like that.

 

Might be possible to solve that since you can set view distance manually in the video.scr config file, 100% in game corresponds to a value of 8.60 if I remember correctly.
(I just set the value to 10.00 to round it off.)

 

Yep sure did, game no longer reads extracted files besides the two config files for video and audio.

 

With this settings my FPS dont drop bellow 30...



Here is some gameplay...

I would love to lower textures to medium and shadows to medium BUT I have problem! With medium textures game looks fine but what is this on some places?!

Spoiler

Also medium textures, no problem:

Spoiler

 

Yea, 100% = 2.6 now

 

no patch downloaded for me

and I had steam running all morning. and even restarted steam.


verifying files........


edit: after verifying files. it updated.

 

There's also a new very high shadow setting, though I wouldn't put it past it just being the old high and the rest now being lower.

Since they fiddled with the view distance slider.

But, cpu usage is more even now.

 

Before the patch 2.60 = 55% (1 notch up from default), so the new patch 100% would be 55% pre-patch.

So the new patch 50% is a heck of a lot lower than the pre-patch 50%, not good at all.

 

Not sure what else changed but VRAM usage with everything maxed is down to 2.6GB whereas before I was always around 3.6GB
