fixedWe have had a beta patch out over the weekend. A big THANK YOU to everyone who helped us test it out. We have fixed a lot of stuff you found, and those things will be in the next patch, which we are aiming to have out in beta next week, and live shortly after. As for now, the patch is almost the same as the beta patch. A crash fix or two might have slipped in. Full patch notes for patch 1.0.1 (Hotfix) as follows: Stability & Performance
fixedFixed several rare CTDs.
changedLate-game performance optimizations.
addedAdded GUI scaling option for people with very small or very high resolution displays (experimental).
addedAdded a max framerate limiting system (defaults to 75 fps) to help people with the combination of bad cooling, great graphics cards and very high screen refresh. If you are one of these with heat issues I would love to hear if this solved it (changing max_fram_rate in settings can let you remove its effect by making it higher, or go lower if you still have issues)
