Notes / Known Issues

• Needs System is WIP, will have issues sometimes with the UI showing multiples of the same thing, is fixed by respawning/restarting. Also it does not function in Calido Valley Raceway/Pavilion in its current state, and not all food and drink items replenish the system.
• DLSS and other new Nvidia software features, can provide significant performance improvements on some setups. However, these features are dependent on many factors, including CPU/GPU bottlenecks, and specific graphics settings, and resolutions while in use. Feel free to try out all the new features if you have a Nvidia card, but note some tuning will be needed. You don't need all of the settings on in most cases, some settings combined with others can actually reduce performance. Some time to test and tweak is recommended.
• Game coloring and lighting has been adjusted to improve visuals, darkness issues, and artifacts.
• occasionally other players are not loaded properly, and are in the world but cannot be seen. If others find you invisible, do an Emote, that will usually fix the issue.
• interiors can look too bright with Hardware Lumen turned off, this is currently in ongoing development and will be updated over the next releases. Its recommended to be left on if your hardware can support it.
• various collision/clip issues exist on static meshes, and relate to the avatar motion system, or unfinished collision.
• jetpack stats are still mid-rebalance, several have been updated.
• racing vehicles are also mid-rebalance.
• energy weapons have double the projectile speed.
• drone targets currently don't deal damage to weapon range drones
• lighting/shadows can flicker on fog, environment, and clouds at specific times of the day or lighting angles, especially present early morning/late evening.
• water materials system are mid-rework, some materials might appear to have strange bouncing reflections.
