GOW Ragnarok Update 3 Patch Notes – September 27, 2024
Spatial Audio
- Crash Fix: Resolved a crash that could occur at random intervals when spatial audio was enabled.
- Audio Dropout Fix: Fixed an issue where audio would drop out intermittently with spatial audio activated.
Mouse Input/Camera
- Focus Issue Resolved: Fixed a problem where the mouse failed to control the camera but could still navigate menus.
- Improved Input Handling: Mouse controls now use raw input instead of the GameInput driver for improved responsiveness.
VRAM Utilization
- Texture Cache Update: Texture Quality now uses fixed-sized texture caches in VRAM, preventing it from expanding to consume all available VRAM.
- Accurate VRAM Usage Display: The VRAM usage shown in the settings menu now reflects the allocated VRAM as a percentage of the amount recommended by the operating system. Usage above 100% is possible but may degrade performance.
- Optimization: Adjusted the VRAM texture cache algorithm to reduce VRAM usage, which could have previously caused performance issues over time.
Controller
- Stick Drift Fix: Resolved an issue with stick drift on third-party controllers.
Animation
- Super Ultrawide Screen Fix: Fixed animation issues occurring in the 32:9 super ultrawide screen during the “Open Your Heart” cinematic.
