Here is the full list of changes:

Performance:

  • General performance improvements (should be a big help for some people).

  • Adjusted the particle counts on the drifting bus to improve it's performance.

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed virtual 3 and 12 not loading and instead returning to the main menu.

  • Fixed 100% complete bug not unlocking when achieving it.

  • Fixed the leaderboard loading symbol appearing over medals in the level select screen.

  • Camera Smoothing would sometimes be on even when it said it was off. This is now fixed.

Other:

  • Updated the medal times for Hell part 1 and Location Unknown Part 1 so that they take into account what you have learned so far. Also added some more leniency to the later levels in these parts to account for the fact that people need time to master the tech.

  • Turned off motion blur by default.

  • Moved the game quality option up to the top of the video settings.

  • Updated low and medium settings so that they look a lot better with a new high performance fog.

  • Updated the lighting on the virtual levels so they are a bit less dark (particularly on medium settings) and addressed the darkness on some specific levels.
