Maybe out of your realm of expertise, but what's good to tweak performance wise in this game? If I host on a 2070 super I get barely 30-40 fps running medium and below settings and I'm itching to min/Max the graphics because it's a fricken gorgeous game

Are you running it in DX11? Also set shadow cascades to 1

Yup was playing and showing the game off on stream to friends on discord when this happened. Needless to say we all weren't that impressed. Glad to hear it's getting fixed!

It’s been deployed now, sorry for the trouble. Please apologise to your friends, we will keep working on updates until the game is what it should be

on both icarus.exe and Icarus-Win64-Shipping.exeRight click on .exe and I unchecked*deactivate full screen optimization*run as adminand in the Modify High resolution parameters button (windows is in french sry for translation)uncheck the second checkbox related to dpi scallingWhen I use the Icarus-Win64-Shipping.exe directly, same infinite connectivity issue, but when using the desktop steam created icon, all works fine and I am connected now.

Edit: Note it says *uncheck* not check.

Are you running the game from a shortcut on your desktop? Or through steam? If you could make sure you're running it through steam, with steam online and let me know!

Really sorry for the trouble folks and the rocky launch. We will have this update out in 2 hours, maybe less. It takes a long time to build and deploy to steam. We will keep pumping out updates to fix bugs, we're sorry for disrupting things for you.

Understood. We have an update coming today, and more planned. Really sorry for the rough launch - that's on us. We're going to work as hard as we can to ensure everyone gets the experience on Icarus they deserve.

Well done, that second mission was pretty off putting to a lot of folk because of the spawns. Glad to see you having such an active hand in things. Also, unrelated, but I saw your response to a lot of steam reviews asking about dx11 performance vs 12. On my end, with a 3080, I don’t use raytracing so 11 works immensely smoother.

Yes - we found *massive* issues with DX12 performance in some circumstances. Will be trying to get these fixes deployed ASAP. Im really sorry that you had these problems, we're going to work as hard as we can to fix them. It's on us and we are going to work hard.

We have found a fix for this (hopefully). I will let you know its deployed. You will know the fix is in your build, when you see "87948" or above in the version number.

Description of fix from programmer:

stops the animals from spawning inside or around the radar on the scan missions. Will attempt to find a location away from players and have them move to the location

You should be getting really good FPS, for sure. I am running only 16GB ram (DD5, though) and I get far better frames.

Try setting "Texture Pool Size" to max? Also try running in DX11 - please do let me know how you get on.

How did you get on, are you still having issues?
