Hello everyone! We have just released a new optimization and polish update for Broken Drive Demo. This patch focuses on bringing significant performance improvements for low-to-mid range PCs, integrating cutting-edge upscaling technology, and fixing critical immersion bugs.

Here is what’s new in this update:

⚡ Performance & Graphics

• AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3.1) Added: You can now toggle AMD FSR directly in the Settings menu! Greatly boosts FPS on supported GPUs while maintaining crisp visuals.

• VRAM & Memory Optimization: Fixed texture streaming pool allocations to prevent VRAM memory thrashing, stutters, and crashes on 4GB/6GB GPUs.

• Lumen & Lighting Enhancements: Optimized Lumen global illumination and shadow render passes for a smoother, high-framerate experience.

• Foliage & Mesh Draw Distance Tweaks: Background meshes and vegetation draw distances have been optimized to reduce GPU strain without sacrificing atmosphere.

🐛 Bug Fixes & Audio

• Day 6 Ghost Encounter Fix: Fixed an issue where the player's footstep audio would continue looping if caught by the ghost while moving or sprinting.

• Audio Timing Overlap Fixed: Fixed ambient background voicelines/sounds accidentally triggering during or after jumpscare sequences.

• Movement & Input Locking: Improved player input and camera handling during critical story cutscenes and encounters.
