Demo Update #19

We've made a update to the DEMO VERSION of THE DAWNING CLOCKS OF TIME REMAKE.



VERSION 1.0.0.0701.12

This update fixes / changes the following;

New!
  • We've added a new Ultra graphics preset to the game, allowing the maximum graphics fidelity on high end GPUS. This will enable realtime reflections, advanced raytracing and maximum detailed shadows.
  • We've added the ability to run the game in Vulkan API, if your GPU supports it and will benefit from using it over the default D3D11_1 API.
  • We've added the Tech Support app for Linux/SteamOS.
  • We've added the Instruction Manual launch option for Linux/SteamOS.
  • We've added the Low graphics preset to the video settings utility which wasn't showing before.
  • We've updated the demo which will now no longer end abruptly and will show the wormhole travel cutscene scene and allow the player to briefly explore the Alpha Centauri system, which was cut improperly before. The demo will end when attempting to exit and enter another area.

Bug Fixes / General Improvements
  • We've fixed a bug where the cursor would be frozen when the end of demo screen is displayed, which caused a potential softlock.
  • We've fixed a bug which would lock the cursor when trying to change settings in game, making the player resort to the keyboard or controller to navigate.
  • We've fixed a bug where the Settings Window would become unfocused, forcing the user to try and select it again if using a game controller. The settings window will now always be focused to Close by default.
  • We've fixed a bug where the graphics tab on the Settings window would sometimes become inaccessible when switching to the Sound tab.
  • We've fixed a bug where selection sounds would not play when clicking the buttons in Settings.
  • We've fixed a bug where the underlay for the Settings window would not appear, making it sometimes difficult to see text.
  • We've updated the buttons in the Settings UI to match the other parts of the UI for consistency.
  • We've updated the Video Settings utility which now properly uses Windows visual styles and no longer has display glitches.
