GPU bottleneck bug will be fixed in the next update and more!
[h3]Hello Community,[/h3][p][/p][p]Today I would like to share some good news about performance improvements and news about Lost Island.[/p][p][/p][p]A lot has already been done to improve performance, but so far the effects have been minimal. Quality has also had to take a back seat from time to time.[/p][p][/p][p]KeepUp Survival had an intense internal GPU bug that was so difficult to track down that it seemed almost impossible to find the problem properly. Even new versions of the engine didn't have the desired effect at first.[/p][p][/p][p]However, after much deliberation, I decided to take a bigger step and switch to the latest engine version in order to carry out further tests.[/p][p]And that's exactly what fixed the GPU bottleneck bug![/p][p][/p][p]Sometimes in development you have the strangest things where you keep asking yourself: what was it again? that's the way it is.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I can now say: it runs very well![/p][p]Even older computers will be able to play the game properly again with the upcoming update.[/p][p][/p][p]With Ultra Settings + TSR you can now achieve over 130 FPS (without limitation) on Lost Island, and on the Mountain Map it's even over 170 FPS.[/p][p][/p][p]GPU utilization used to be a tricky issue.[/p][p]Here, too, the values are now very good: with an FPS limit of 60 FPS, the GPU load is only 50 % to 55 %.[/p][p]Of course, if you want to use higher FPS, you will have a correspondingly higher load - everyone should be aware of that. As it currently stands, it is perfectly tuned.[/p][p][/p][p]VRAM usage has also been optimized:[/p][p]In order to reduce the memory consumption of the graphics card, I have reworked many textures.[/p][p]Now they usually only use up to 3-4 GB (a little more depending on the situation).[/p][p]My goal remains to keep the game playable for older systems.[/p][p][/p][p]News about Lost Island:[/p][p]Lost Island is also currently receiving a small rework.[/p][p]With the upcoming update, there will be more new buildings, including a quarry.[/p][p]The large castle will also be completely renovated and given a completely new look.[/p][p][/p][p]Another feature planned for the upcoming update:[/p][p]You will no longer be able to simply mine sulphur (sulfur) in the future, it will be necessary to carry a gas mask with you to do so.[/p][p][/p][p]At this point, many thanks again to Steam user & streamer Kredox, who gave me this idea![/p][p][/p][p]You still don't have to worry about your savegames:[/p][p]Your saved game data will of course be retained and can still be loaded, even if some new features and changes are added to the game.[/p][p][/p][p]The changes to the crafting stations will also be included in this update (as already announced in the penultimate update).[/p][p][/p][p]More information will follow with the upcoming update, which will be released soon![/p][p][/p][p]
