Hello everybody,

Today we released version 0.8.5, it contains many graphical improvements.
I added TAAU ("Temporal Anti-Aliasing Upsample"), its similar to AMD FSR or NVIDIAS DLSS. So if you have low fps you can now reduce the resolution in "Windowed Fullscreen" Mode and TAAU will improve the output. Moreover the ghosting effect is reduced by this.

Features:

• RTS - Improved RTS UI
  
• RTS - Added basic tooltips for buildings
  
• RTS - Adapted difficulty for RTSAI
  
• RTS - Added more sounds to RTS units
  
• General - Added standard server name
  
• General - Added TAAU option to visuals
  
• General - Added Tonemapsharpener
  

Bug fixing:

• FPS - Fixed explosiv molotov position
  
• FPS - Fixed nightvision UI
  
• General - Fixed JoinServerList and Singleplayer selection for lowres screens
  

and remember our playtest for the one year early access on august 11th:
