Why not better, I can already hear you typing? The main reason is that the game on 1.11 is a different beast 1.10 (which itself is quite different from the original 1.0 release). So far it looks like our release candidate is roughly on par with the current 1.10 patch, performance wise. We know that performance is always at the heart of every discussion about our games and as a Tech Lead I have been keeping a close eye on it. Working remotely for more than a year, we also noticed less issues playing with remote desktop and the like, which might not be a big deal for most of you but was quite appreciable for our devs during development.įinally it did help us tweaking & fixing the new railways & trains graphics (as most graphics debugging tools have dropped support for DX9).

The game should load a bit faster however, especially if you use a lot of mods that bring extra textures and models. There shouldn't be any visual difference between DX9 and DX11 (and OpenGL for that matter), we have been working on making sure the experience will be the same. That's right, the next HoI4 release will join Stellaris and the other more recent PDS games by adding DirectX 11 support.ĭirectX 9 will still be the default for now, but you will be able to select another renderer in the launcher settings. Some time we can work our way around it, but not always. If you take the case of Linux for example, the previous Ubuntu release was from 2016, meaning HoI could not use anything released since then (and probably a bit before, as Ubuntu LTS releases usually don't ship with the latest shiny goodies).

Without going too much into details, the general idea is that we can only use tech that is supported on all platforms, so basically we're only as modern as the oldest thing we support. Why do we make those decisions you may wonder? Two reasons: one maintaining old tech comes with a cost that we would rather spend on improving the game for 99% of the users, and two sometimes it blocks the adoption of new tech that would make our programmers job easier and more efficient. There shouldn't be much to worry about though, as the previous versions are older than HoI itself at this point and our telemetry shows almost all of you have upgraded long ago.įor those on Windows who look anxiously at their aging Windows 7, keep calm and carry on, we have no plans to drop support for it (although as a friendly tech person I'd still suggest you consider upgrading ).

This means that starting next update the minimum OS version to run HoI will be Ubuntu 18.04 (on Linux) and macOS 10.11 (El Capitan) on Mac.

In this diary I'll tell you more about our tech, give some insights into the programmer's job, what we've been up to for the past year (and some change) and offer you a chance to ask any question you may have about tech.įirst, with the upcoming 1.11 patch we will be retiring some old Linux and Mac platforms that aren't maintained by their own developers anymore. The only thing you need to do, is pay an extra $20, but only if the completely optional creation club content appeals to you.Īnd that's the problem, people are acting like this, what is essentially, DLC is forcing them to buy the game again, it's not.Hello everyone, it's your favourite (and only) tech lead, The French Paradox! You don't need to buy the game all over again.

Because you own the Special Edition, you get the PS5 version, with some DLC, completely free. 'I need to pay again for the same game with a few upgrades'

#MASS EFFECT 3 EXPANDED GALAXY MOD PS4#

The only way you bought more than two copies would be if you bought the PS3 standard version (2011) then the PS3 Legendary Edition (2013, which was expected since Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3, and New Vegas all recieved similar editions, plus the extra content was available for the original release) and then the PS4 Special Edition (2016) and/or the PS4 VR version. So you would have bought the PS3 version and the PS4 version.

Sun 7th Nov The Special Edition is the only version of Skyrim on the PS4.
