What officially changed

Greetings scouts! Do I have good news for you! This patch comes with some much-requested features for players with low-end hardware or previously unsupported graphics cards. Namely the Texture Quality setting and the DX11 Graphics API option. If you've experienced low framerate, missing graphics, or crashes, please try these options out! Additionally, we've added Photosensitive Mode for players averse to flashing lights and dramatic screen effects.

This mode has a handful of changes to visuals listed below, but if we missed something that you'd find helpful please let us know! Finally, the MESA and ALPINE will now alternate every day. When we patch and rotate the maps, you might still see two in a row. Keep in mind that if-and-when we add new replacement biomes, we’ll have to update this with a more sophisticated randomizer. Happy climbing!
