Release Notes - Version 0.80

Version 0.80

Release Notes

Changes in this version include:

Features:

• Introduce GPU validation and show it on the result screen.

- Makes the benchmark a bit more sensitive against external tools but ensures the GPU offers the right feature set to render the scene correctly.

• Show it on the result screen if the preset seems to be unsaved for some reason.

 - To fix this the user should go back to the menu and change the global setting back and forward. (Unfortunately I have no idea why this can happen in some cases.)

Improvements:

• Tweak timings of music and intro animations.
• Start benchmark in full screen and 720p if no save game is detected because it performs best in full screen. Even though it does not look best in 720p, a higher resolution could make users tempt to overload their systems when starting the benchmark.

Bug fixes

• Fix bug that plummets performance when changing some settings.
• Fix bug that can show a wrong display mode on the result screen.
• Fix frame counter potentially overlapping frame time readout with more than 1000fps. Until now I have not seen that with my own eyes, but a user reported this to be an issue.
