Patch 2.4.0d (Restartless)

hi mum! (that's the common thing to write here, not?)

edit: had alot of stuttering today on the frankfurt gateway, mostly lag spikes, don't think it was my computer.

it went away when i connected to the amsterdam gtw, we europeans are really spoilt with gateway density:)

Cool, now you just need to fix Scion's passive tree art not appearing... because that's a bug... right? Q.Q

I have been getting big ping lag and disconnects these past few hours, screen just freezes and I have to alt f4 out otherwise ill die so hopefully this is the fix for that

Awesome.

Patch 2.4.0d

• Fixed a bug that would cause extraneous disk access on the main thread when loading new shaders. This was one cause of stuttering on some machines, especially those without SSDs. This bug had been present since 2.3.0.

This has been deployed without a realm restart. Restart your game client to download this update.

GLORY BE!

And all the people rejoiced, and said -

God Save the Chris,
Long Live the Chris,
May the Chris live forever.

Us NA have noticed, it's become a game almost to guess what EU server I'm getting screwed by because a single EU player in a group of NA players created the instance first.

If only I didn't find this post because I crashed suddenly out of a master rota and had to find something to do while reloading PoE (which used up 99% Disk to check resources for 45 minutes).

:(

Still, I hope the restartless patch fixed things for others!
