Angrypig was the guinea pig and tested :)
But so far he saw only increase in latency, GPU caching one more frame by default.

There is also slightly increased performance 6-10% at least on my NVIDIA 750 TI.

Maybe worth a try? Even with the injunction against beta drivers?

Hi! Just wanted to know if you finally got the Brix, and if so, how did it perform with Outerra. I'm very impressed by the tiny brix nut not sure if Intel irispro can perform properly.
Thanks!

Is it Windows Vista? Seems there are still some incompatibilities after moving to a new platform SDK.

Unfortunately, you must wait for the next patch. Win XP is barely supported because of shared memory limitations, but this broke because of linking with a newer platform library.

Thank you cameni.... I'm in the market for a new machine anyway, so it will have 8.1 on it anyway.   In the mean time, if a patch corrects it, I'll continue to explore Outerra until the new 'puter is ordered!

I'm already using that version with no problems at all. So I think it's safe to use ;)

New update is causing my AMD Graphics to crash at the 'Initializing World' point.

Outerra was working fine until three days ago.  There have been no other changes to my setup.  Now the program starts but crashes at the 'Initializing world' message.  I get a message from ATI 'Graphics Driver stopped and has recovered'.  At this point I need to close Outerra from the task manager.

I've tried reinstalling, removing cache and packages and updating to the AMD Beta drivers, but none of these have made any difference.  So I've given up :(

Log attached.  Machine is Windows 8.1 64 bit with AMD R9 200 card.

BTW, I can no longer uninstall Outerra.  I can run the uninstaller but it just immediately says 'Completed' and actually hasn't done anything.

There was no update for some weeks, so I guess this must be caused by a change in your system. Did you do a clean uninstall of AMD drivers?

Also, if the uninstaller doesn't work, this may be caused by some changes to user access rules, or maybe a Windows update that did something to it ...
