changed⚙️ New Upscaling Options (DLSS & TSR) We have officially added DLSS and TSR to the game, meaning any graphics card—whether you are on AMD or NVIDIA—will now heavily benefit from upscaling technology. If you have a compatible card, you will see a few new options in your settings menu to help push your frame rate to the max:
addedFrame Generation Multipliers (2X, 3X, 4X): You can now manually choose exactly how much you want to multiply your frame rate for maximum smoothness on high-refresh-rate monitors.
added✨ Ray Tracing & MegaLights Support We have also added official Ray Tracing support to the graphics menu! If your hardware supports it, you can now enable ultra-realistic reflections, lighting, and shadows to drastically increase the visual depth and atmosphere of the game.
fixedMegaLights Optimization: When you turn on Ray Tracing, MegaLights will automatically be enabled under the hood. For supported cards, this brand-new tech allows the engine to handle massive amounts of dynamic lights efficiently, actually increasing your performance by a lot even with Ray Tracing active. Other Fixes: - Fixed: Resolution values not displaying correctly on settings. - Fixed: Entity from Chapter 1 camping the Lab exit

  • Auto Mode: If you don't want to mess with numbers, just leave it on Auto. The game will automatically adjust the frame multiplier in real-time, giving you extra frames only when your system needs the help while keeping your controls responsive.
