KickStarter Kingdom Come: Deliverance - Dan Vavra's medieval chad simulator

[Smejki]

I hope the FPS fix improve it. .. in two weeks.

A tiny hotfix patch might come sooner. We've noticed some easy-to-fix rare but game breaking bugs in the livestreams.
I've fixed one just today. never happened to any one in 2 years, should be impossible, yet there it was.
Cause?

Fix?
easiest possible

Damn, 3000 reviews already on Steam. Suspiciously fast for a big RPG.

Yeah, some hotfix just downloaded.

Do you also lose your levels and skills, or just all items+gold?

You lose nothing except Radzig's sword. Everything else you owned is in a chest.

My chest was chock full of treasure maps. Anyone here who didn't preorder the game? I guess those are the pre-order bonuses.

 

[Alienman]

Are those maps something you should avoid if you don't want to unbalance the game? I mean getting too good equipment too fast. Like I'm still running around with an ugly ax since I can't afford a proper sword.

-which makes it weird that they havent figured how to make it rain indoor. Gothic 1 has this feature. No biggie tho.

what are you saying? that you can't hear thr sound of rain indoor?

You can see raindrops indoors, clipping through the roof of the house.

Have you checked to see if your CPU or GPU is being throttled due to temperature?

Nah, the temperature is stable around 60°C when playing.

The problem to me seems to be the animation system (or something else to do with characters). In the main menu - which is just using ingame graphics and settings, but displays no characters - I get 60fps stable. In the game, when looking at something without animated characters - 40+ fps, too. Even 60 at night...
But as soon as people come into sight, the performance does a nose dive.
Remember that scene at night after waking up when you have to go to the rampart and meet the soldiers? 30-60 fps throughout the empty castle - but as soon as those soldiers come into view: 15-30fps.

Same thing happens during dialogues. Only one or two people are visible, but those already tank the performance.

Ah, damn, that fucker is falling through terrain (that's the animation, sped up 2-3times BTW) but physics prevents him to really fall through. Worst scenario. Had he fallen through properly he'd be teleported back. That's our safeguard feature for this rare physics glitch (common to all bigger games. Anyone remeber the disappearing Megaton waterworks maintenance guy in Fallout3?).

yeah, these areas (rain occluders) are placed manually by artists. They likely missed some spots here and there.

 

[Brozef]

Then you wake up and gave to talk to some wench from your village when all you want to do is hit "i" and see whether those dicks really took everything from you and invalidated the first 10 hrs .

Your items are in the chest behind you. It’s even in the quest log.

Well I restarted the game once I finfished crying and yeah... what he said.
Now I feel

I've always wondered how it works. I've seen it happen selectively in only some places in many games.

One question besides: Will you tell us when you reach the revenue break even point and if we can get the second chapter as a CE?

I know and understand, just trying to spark some creative autism instead of usual whining about glitches. BTW, what's with framerate tanking during dialogues? How does it work, does rendered Henry make such big difference?

It's a invisible simple box akin to physics geometry (which is always way simpler than the model). Automation is in place of course as it could be pre-baked into a preset model (same house model scattered around the map dozens of times). Or, when the world or a situation is more complicated, it must be shaped and placed manually to fit the specific site.

No, really, only occasional framerate tanking and funny stuff happens so far, no gamebreaking fuckery. Definite .

That's posted on page 10. Yesterday, so it's not that old. BTW, I read the PC Gamer review, they seem to like it. I expected a lot more criticism, or is this Warhorse's PR budget talking? :D

Congratz on staying true to studio's creative vision throughout the whole development time, it's sure pays off.
