[h2]Updates[/h2]

[h2]Updates[/h2]
Spatial Audio

• Fixed crash related to spatial audio that could occur in multiple locations throughout the game with random intervals
  
• Fixed an issue with audio dropping out when spatial audio was enabled
  

Mouse Input/Camera

• Fixed mouse input focus issue where mouse would not control camera, but could still control menus
  
• Moved mouse controls to use raw input instead of GameInput driver
  

HDR

• Fixed an issue where HDR would not retain its setting on subsequent game starts
  

VRAM Utilization

• Texture Quality now uses fixed sized texture caches in VRAM instead of growing to use all of available VRAM
  
• VRAM usage shown in the settings menu now reflects the amount of VRAM allocated based on the current settings as a percentage of amount recommended by operating system. Usage over 100% will work but can lead to performance degradation.
  
• Modified VRAM texture cache algorithm to reduce VRAM usage that may have caused performance to degrade over time
  

Controller

• Fixed an issue with 3rd party controllers having stick drift
  

Animation

• Fixed animation issues in 32:9 super ultrawide screen in Open Your Heart cinematic
