Hello everyone,

Today we’re releasing a new update for Jalopy which introduces a few changes to performance. As you know, optimisation is something that we are planning to work on throughout development and it will take some time.

ChangeLog:

• Flickering lights option in the option menu now works
• Work done towards framerate drop at night
• Trunks should no longer duplicate items when placing 1x2x1 items in roof rack
• Placing engine components into trunk should no longer make your car freak out

Adjusting graphic settings:

We’ve noticed that V sync can cause the game to suffer from a severe FPS loss. If you are experiencing any FPS drops at night, we recommend you turning off Vsync and SSAO. Running the game on low to medium settings during this can make the game run on our machines at around 90FPS in towns during night, where on high they could drop to about 20FPS.

Do adjust your graphical options, the low poly allows for a lot more leeway on these settings and know that optimisation will continue to be an ongoing process during development.

Hungary Update

Regarding the Hungary update, Greg is working very hard on the core generation of Hungary and will be spending more time refining new features. This will of course go into some internal testing before release and over the next few weeks we will begin to share more details on the update and what features you can look forward to seeing. Thankyou everyone for your patience!
