DEMO Update: Save your free play scores, crash fixes and more

Beat Weaver Demo · published

Version: 0.10.12-553a295ca

Fixes

  • Fix crash at the end of a campaign stage, when autosave happens, due to the file path for the game's save file including non-Latin characters (super sorry about this!)

    • If you are affected by this please let me know if this update fixes it for good!

  • Similarly, the config file wouldn't save or load for the same reason

  • Hold notes were previously not tracked by the Button Alternator maneuver

  • Fix typos in German text

  • Scale German text down in some places to make space

Features

  • Free Play scores are now stored in your save file!

    • Note that the scores in Free Play mode aren't as balanced yet as they are in the campaign. But feel free to take that as a challenge to 5/5 everything on Expert ;)

  • Experimental: Low latency ASIO support

    • Right click the game in your library > Properties > General > Launch Options

    • Add: --aasio --abuffersize 128 where 128 is your buffer size in samples. If a buffer size is not supported, the game will likely not start at all

    • Note: Trying to switch the audio device from within the audio menu is not supported, do not even attempt it.

    • This is experimental, more quality of live will follow soon!

Improvements

  • Better error handling if your graphics card doesn't support DirectX 11.1

    • Previously the game would still try to initialize DirectX 11.0 as a fallback but sadly this feature level is not actually supported

  • Make the game's resolution DPI/scaling aware

  • Add latest game controller database to hopefully support more controllers out of the box, improve their connect/disconnect handling

  • Add Switch Pro input prompt icons

  • Prevent empty button prompts from being shown on certain controllers

  • Raise the configurable latency range from +/-150 to +/-200

  • Rename "Input Rate Limit" to "Debounce Time"

  • Increase visibility of the campaign unlockables window

  • Small window placement improvements in tutorials and jam stage

  • "Quick Switch" and "Instant Switch" quests now have highlights to guide you to an example where they are possible
