-re-enabling normal grass density seems to break the rift tracker :(. I was so excited to see hi-fidelty/density type grass :(
-Smoke causes major fps drop (But glad its not pixelated anymore!)
-deep ocean rendering is really messed up still

I am having trouble.  When i hit alt semi colon, it goes to a blacked out stereo view but just a thin sliver of the horizon is rendered, just all the land and sky above me is blacked out.  I looks like a negative (see attached). Do you happen to know what it might be?  I have a gtx 680 with an up to date driver running on a 1920x1200 monitor, and all programs that you said messes with graphics closed.  Works great when not in stereo

Yes, the smoke now appears to be crippling my GTX 680. I can do without it for the meantime. It was accidentally leaked initially so I wouldn't expect to have had it anyway, I call it a added bonus. I'm sure Brano will deal to it.

Ahh I figured it out.  Have to have anti-aliasing below msaa 4x.  You probably said that, Sorry for missing it.  Now it works perfectly!!  Awesome, my dev kit gets here soon, can't wait to try it out with it.  Thanks!!

Sorry, this did not resolve the issue for me. I tried a multitude of settings from NVidia settings to in-game settings, still getting very low FPS with smoke.

I think he meant it resolved the stereo issue. Stereo doesn't support MSAA yet, with Rift it's automatically turned off, but not if you enable stereo at run time.

The smoke probably gets Nvidia into a sw emulated mode because of unsupported texture format or something. I didn't have a Nvidia card for testing around and Angrypig vanished for the weekend, so I didn't catch it.

Oh, I didn't follow the dialogue properly. That's ok.

I'm implementing a proper handling of the problem when the update server is down. That one seems to have some problems after being moved to a new hardware by our provider.
We'll be also moving the update handling for registered accounts to our account management servers which are far more reliable.

I doubt the grass has anything to do with it :)
Sometimes the rift tracker can't initialize itself - no idea why. Disconnecting the USB cable and connecting it back after a while seems to help, but you may have to restart OT after that.
