REVISION 31 UP: CONSCRIPT STEELCOG VERSUS THE MURDERCULT

What does this mean:

• First pass at almost-zero draw overhead (AZDO) pass (requires config file opt-in)

 

You need to modify a config file to actually activate the system. It's discussed at more length here: https://community.gaslampgames.com/threads/rev-30c-pushed-to-experimental-branch.9182/

 

re: AZDO

The Devs have implemented some driver optimisations which are intended to improve performance. They're currently a bit buggy, which is why it's not on by default. If you want to give it a try anyway, here are the steps:

1) Go to C:\Users\[Your Name]\Documents\Gaslamp Games\Clockwork Empires
2) Open up config.xml in a raw text editor, like Notepad.exe
3) Find <entry key="azdo" type="int" value="0" />
4) Carefully change it to <entry key="azdo" type="int" value="1" />
5) Save and close the file.

You can change it back by changing that 1 back to a 0. You will (hopefully) notice that the game takes longer to load, but runs faster, and at a higher framerate. There are also some graphical glitches, because it's not done yet.

 

You can't renovate anymore? I apologise if this has been brought up before, but I seem to have missed 2 or so versions and I can't find anything in the changelog about renovations.

 

They've disabled it for the time being due to outstanding issues, but it will return new and improved.

 

GhooOOOOooost ooooOOOOoooovens! There must be a cult at work in my colony.

 

Fantastic! I look forward to these updates, will definitely give it a go this weekend. Keep up the good work.

 

Anyone could be a cultist. Follow the example of Gigeon Brazenwhistle and sleep with one eye open at all times.
