![]() And of course, we’ve now got CURVED WALLS in case you want to build a submarine that actually looks like a submarine instead of a floating box. Some other features include the option to scale and offset wall textures and to mirror items and walls horizontally or vertically. The saved assemblies can also be shared in the Steam Workshop. If you’ve built something cool you want to save for later use in your future submarines, you can simply select the group of items/devices and save it. They are basically collections of items and structures that can be reused across submarines, for example pre-wired doors, pre-filled supply cabinets or fully wired airlock systems. However, the editor does have a few new features, perhaps the most important being what we decided to call “item assemblies”. ![]() Undo & redo functionality is a must, along with making wiring the sub faster and easier. Moving from characters to vessels, the Submarine Editor will remain mostly unchanged in the first early access version, although we have plans to make it a little more user-friendly during the early access period. female and male characters, or depending on the body structure of the character – think mom and baby Moloch. We might change this later on, which would enable us to have different kind of movement for e. You can have multiple animations and ragdolls per character, but currently only the ones defined as default files will be used. The ragdolls and the animations are stored separately in different files. In the animation editing mode, you define how your creation should move. In the ragdoll editing mode, you create and edit limbs and connect these with joints. In the Character Editor, you can edit the two basic components of characters, the ragdolls and the animations. Inside the Character Editor: the makings of a (temp title) Fishworm. It’s a work in progress, and for some things you still have to dig into the xml code (things like deformations and attacks), but as of this moment, it is possible to create characters from scratch without even touching a text editor. This had to change when we started making new monsters, and we also wanted to simplify the process a lot to make it easier for players to build their own mods. Overall, creating new characters involved a lot of knowledge about the inner workings of the game and its code. In the pre-alpha versions, editing the ragdolls and animations was possible only in xml, and there was very little control over the animation parameters. Starting with the smallest moving parts and skipping the Particle and Sprite Editors, we’re going to move on to the brand new Character Editor, used for creating both human and non-human characters in the game.Īll characters are made up of a ragdoll “skeleton”, on one hand, and the animations that go with that character, on the other. Have a read and let us know what you think! Character editor These are used for developing the game, but upon Steam release, the same tools will be available for modding. We’ve built several editors for creating all the different moving parts in Barotrauma. Last time on the blog we covered some new gameplay functionality, and this time we’re going to take a look at how the game is built.

I died not infrequently on Easy difficulty. It’s a nice break from modern graphics and the nostalgia-needle is hitting the far end of the gauge. It helps that the gameplay is super smooth, but I love the aesthetic of Huntdown. The hand-painted graphics are pure pixel-art joy and the hand-drawn animations never get old. Time and effort went into re-creating the look of ‘80s arcade games and it paid off. With 20 levels, 20 bosses, and 4 parts of the city to explore, there is a good bit of variety for this action arcade shooter. Combat with weaker enemies can sometimes feel ordinary, but the different environments, combatants, and weapons help to spice up the fighting.

While I recommend playing with a Pro controller on the Switch, it was nice to be able to play Huntdown in different places. Playing on the Nintendo Switch, I was able to enjoy the game in bed at night, outside on the back porch, and docked on my entertainment console in the office.

Two flexible views for viewing and selecting the duplicates to delete. The automatic “Remove All Now” feature is pretty good at selecting the “original” file. What I Like: Scans for duplicate files are fast and accurate. If you have plenty of hard drive space free, or only have a few files, save your money. Or you may like to consider some of the alternative apps we list later in the review. Should you purchase Easy Duplicate Finder? If you’ve been running your computer for a while and have lots of duplicate files, the app can save you a lot of disk space as well as improve the organization of your files. I found the file scan very good some of the other scans were lacking. Or you can review the duplicates and decide what to do with them.

See our video editing for beginners guide). ![]() If you cut in some other areas, though, you can hit the cap at the resolution meant for your graphics card. There are some settings that destroy image quality - shadow quality and SSAO, in particular. The good news from the results is that you have plenty of bandwidth to reach 60 fps. Elden Ringhas a narrow performance window either you hit 60 fps or you don’t. At 4K regardless of preset, I hit the 60 fps cap. We didn’t bother making a graph for this rig because there’s nothing to report. In addition to the RX 580, we tested Elden Ringon a personal rig with an RTX 3090, 32GB of RAM, and a Core i9-10900K. Our optimized settings are less of an improvement - around 31% over the Maximum preset - but it includes quite a few more settings at High. The presets scale well, and if you want an easy win, jumping to the Medium preset results in a 40% performance improvement. This is a better rig for 1080p, but we tested at the higher resolution to get past the frame-rate cap. We tested the 8GB RX 580, a Ryzen 7 1700X, and 16GB of RAM, and we wouldn’t recommend this configuration for 1440p. Elden Ring PC benchmarks, testedįor Elden Ringbenchmarks, you can see our results at 1440p above. Elden Ringis at its best with 8GB of video memory, though something like a 6GB GTX 1060 would work, too. The 4GB model would run into more issues. ![]() Even with an 8GB RX 580, we were struggling to hit 60 fps at 1080p. The CPU requirements are too high, and the GPU requirements are too low. Based on our testing, it’s more important that you have at least six threads than you have a processor from the last few generations. All of this is to say: Don’t believe the system requirements. The Ryzen 3 3300X only has four cores, but it has hyperthreading, offering up a total of eight threads. Older Intel i5 processors don’t have hyperthreading, and the Core i5-8400 is the first Intel i5 model with six cores. The issue seems to be how many threads older generations of Intel processors have. Even the PC port of God of War only calls for an Intel Core i5-2500K, which is six generations behind the Core i5-8400. We don’t usually see games call for such recent processors. The CPU requirements are most interesting. You can get by with 8GB of RAM, but we recommend sticking with 16GB considering the issues the game already has with stuttering. Although you can get away with an older GPU from the lower end, the CPU and RAM requirements are high. Elden Ring system requirementsĮlden Ringhas some demanding system requirements, far higher than its visual quality would suggest. We just used 1440p for testing to get around the 60 fps cap. To be clear, you shouldn’t play Elden Ringat 1440p with a rig like the one we used. Those are the most important.Īt 1440p, we went from an average of 29 fps at the Maximum preset to 37 fps with my optimized settings. If you’re looking for extra performance, pay attention to the batch of settings from shadow to reflection quality. We compromised and left shadow, reflection, global illumination, and volumetric quality at high, just for visual purposes. Otherwise, basically every option will increase your performance. Maximum is on the left, and Low is on the right. It’s possible they’re causing stuttering in the game, too, so leave them off. ![]() They don’t look great, and they both have a performance impact. The two biggest wins are depth of field and motion blur. This is actually below From Software’s recommended spec, but we were still able to manage a playable frame rate at 1440p with setting tweaks and a full 60 fps at 1080p with the Medium preset. Instead of platonic performance, we put together a PC using midrange parts from a few years ago - a Ryzen 7 1700X, an 8GB RX 580, and 16GB of RAM. ![]() From Software games usually have physics and other things tied to the frame rate, so uncapping will probably break the game. There should eventually be a mod that disables the cap, as has been the case with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Dark Souls 3. These unofficial mods aren’t easy to drum up, though. That makes testing with different cards tough, as a lot of modern rigs can easily hit the cap. Like every previous From Software release on PC, Elden Ringis capped at 60 frames per second (fps). We’re handling Elden Ringdifferently than a lot of other games we write performance guides for. After testing all of the settings individually, here are the best settings for Elden Ring: |
