Patch (v1.0.9): Graphics Quality Settings for Laptop Users, Bug Fixes

Hey Everyone!

This patch aims to address the issue with chapter 4 crashing on integrated graphics cards (mainly laptops). The graphics settings are now available as "Standard, Low, and Very Low" with the main difference being "Low" and "Very Low" have had their texture sizes reduced to a quarter, and an eighth, respectively. If you have ever tried to load chapter 4 and the game has crashed or stalled on a black screen, please try moving the "Graphics Quality" down to "Low" or "Very Low" and hitting "Save". You shouldn't have to restart the game, but if you're still seeing the issue it could be worth doing a restart to make absolutely sure the settings take effect.

I haven't tested the entire game on these settings, but I wanted to make sure you could play the game first and foremost. I think this will be a large step towards unblocking some of you without dedicated graphics cards. I don't think the effect is too drastic either, here is one example:

Changelog

• Feature: Introduced a graphics settings (Standard/Low/Very Low) to hopefully alleviate the issues some players with laptops were seeing like certain chapters crashing due to loading textures.
• Fix: Settings not loading/saving correctly if you've updated the screen edge sensitivity.
• Fix: Fixed an issue where unblockable reinforcements could be pushed out of the map by units standing on their spawn tile. If you saw a certain reinforcement in chapter 7 not being recruitable, this is why.
• Fix: If you made edits to your units in their joining chapter in the formation menu and saved, but not in base, the units would go back to default equipment upon restart. It now works correctly where saving in formation menu and restarting will still keep the edits you made showing up in base.
• Fix: Text fixes "resfresh" -> "refresh", mispelling of "Macrus", Bodyguard ability clarified in its description.
• Balance: Crusader now has 2 charges for their smite ability.

Also got some fixes for certain unit's being "pushed off the map" and not being able to be recruited. Another fix for an issue where default equipment would keep getting assigned to units on their first chapter in your squad (Mainly happened if you only saved in the formation menu and not base).

Also just a slight balancing change for now so the Crusade can keep up with Enlightened and Saint. Hope this helps make the class feel better.

If you were somebody who was experiencing chapter 4 crashing on your laptop, please confirm to me in email or the Steam forums if the new graphics settings has fixed the issue for you!!

Best,
