Pre-Update: DirectX 11 and Minor Fixes

Thumper · published 16 Dec 2016, 04:43 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

In preparation for a big update next week, we released a small Thumper update today.

First, the game now uses an all-new DirectX 11 graphics engine. Most users should get a small performance boost and there should be no visual difference with the old DirectX 9 renderer.

For compatibility reasons, the DirectX 9 build is still available as a launch option (the executable is also in your install directory: THUMPER_dx9.exe).

This build also fixes some minor bugs users have reported. Thanks for all our feedback!

A lot more coming soon!
