The New War: Hotfix 31.0.8

Optimizations:

  • Added GPU preference setting to launcher to override Windows defaults and defaulted it to High Performance.
    • If you were running on battery when you launched Warframe it may have selected your laptop's IGP instead of your discrete GPU but since we don't switch GPU selection while running, reconnecting your laptop's power wouldn't actually switch to your discrete GPU so you'd suffer terrible performance until you restarted.
    • If you run into problems with the High Performance default you can get the old behaviour by changing GPU Preference to "Let Windows Decide".
    • 4255e71f28894651c673b802610133c3.png
  • Smoothed out hitches on while loading or streaming levels on PC running DirectX 11.
  • Optimized peak memory when using DirectX 12 on PC and eliminated small hitches that would occur during level and texture streaming.
  • Made many systemic micro-optimizations that saved approximately 15MB of RAM.
  • Made SIMD optimizations to core math routines to improve performance for all platforms.
  • Made a micro-optimization to DirectX 12 prefetching on PC. 
  • Improved cache-density of some frequently used data to improve performance.
  • Upgraded some internal compression code to improve performance.
  • Improved overall performance in Dojos that have many Transporters.
  • Made performance improvements to Caliban’s Fusion Strike. 


Changes:

  • Added additional Ranks (max Rank 180) to the current Nightwave Intermission. 
  • Made improvements to lip sync animations and eyeball materials for the Operator. 
  • Reduced the volume of electricity Status Effect sounds.
  • Reduced jump exertion sound interval for a post-NW character.
  • Caliban’s Cranion Helmet has been added for future Nightwave Cred Offerings rotations - keep an eye out for it! 

Fixes:

  • Fixed a crash if the Panzer Devolution Mod respawn triggered with specific timing during player death & respawn.
  • Fixed another case of Data Keys not dropping from Orb Vallis Jailers, if a previous Drone Defense or Case Capture Bounty stage occurred approximately near the location you searched the body.
  • Fixed inability to “activate” a certain objective during The New War Quest if the timer runs out and you’re near said activation area. 
  • Fixed Caliban's Passive not working in certain situations.
  • Fixed post-New War ‘Anguish’ Set Mods having only 1 effect applied as opposed to the 2 listed. 
  • Fixed a post-New War Set Mod bonus of “reduced damage while airborne” not being applied.
  • Fixed missing Kela De Thaym VO when entering the Rathuum arena. 
  • Fixed rising through the floor when entering the Rathuum arena.
  • Fixed flicking FX on Plains of Eidolon Bounty Caches after completing The New War Quest. 
  • Fixed numerous issues when playing Komi during The Sacrifice Quest. 
  • Fixed Void Shadow causing Client Operator to blink and Ephemera to appear when they are hidden.
  • Fixed Nightwave screen no longer auto-scrolling the Ranks to your current Rank spot.
  • Fixed the Kerulyst Sentinel Attachments not mounting properly to Taxon. 
  • Fixed inability to Chat Link the Mark of the Beast Mod.
  • Fixed numerous misaligned Sugatras when equipped on the Ravurex Gunblade Skin.
  • Fixed Throwing type weapons using the reload animation of a Bow.
  • Fixed swapping weapons while the Verdilac is mid-animation resulting in it becoming improperly offset from your Warframe.
  • Fixed numerous Ostron NPCs having incorrect facial features. 
  • Fixed Euphona Prime reload sound when using the gun as Secondary without a Glaive.
  • Fixed instructions appearing prematurely during a moment in The New War Quest. 
  • Fixed a script error when selling a weapon that a Railjack Crew Mate has equipped.
  • Fixed a script error when customizing a post-New War character.
