Thief v1.3 build 4118.5 changelog:

- Added AMD Mantle support.
- Added AMD TrueAudio support. TrueAudio hardware support can be enabled in the in-game audio options menu.
- AMD Catalyst 14.3 Beta driver is required to use AMD Mantle and AMD TrueAudio.
- Image Based Reflections are now optional in 64-bit version. Used to always be enabled in 64-bit and never in 32-bit.
- Added "Automatically Limit Texture Quality" option, when turned on it limits texture quality based on the amount of dedicated VRAM.
- Fixed medallion icons not or incorrectly lighting up on some setups.
- Fixed subtitles not showing during cinematics when using the 32-bit version.
- Fixed an issue where on specific setups, the game would crash during startup, and creating a new windows account would fix it.
- Fixed an issue where sometimes the mouse position would be offset when running with Surround or Eyefinity.
- Various crash fixes.
- Various optimizations.

Didn't work, didn't realize I was using Reloaded then ALI and now 3DM, all seem to be using different directories and files for saves. Damn it


- Anyone have a save file from 3DM after you visit your girlfriends hide out?

Those patch notes ( http://forums.eidosgames.com/showthread.php?t=142398 ) also had a link to a blog post from AMD about TrueAudio and Mantle in this game. Smile

http://community.amd.com/community/amd-blogs/amd-gaming/blog/2014/03/17/amd-catalyst-143-beta-the-ultimate-driver-for-thief

(So true-audio gives more realistic echos?, for this game that is.)


EDIT: Also I just noticed they use those biased charts for comparing Mantle performance, ah marketing.
(Both AMD and Nvidia do that though, probably other companies or entirely different industries too.)

Yeah, they only use it for some reverb effects. Not the best thing to showcase the technology... but it's something, I guess Very Happy

I want to try out that Tuscany demo they have. The video by Anandtech sounded nice...

Well adding in these things afterwards probably means that their usage is a bit limited much like early PhysX games as a example, would be interesting to see or hear a game that have utilized TrueAudio and Mantle since development began but that would mean games starting development in late 2013 for release later in 2014 or even 2015
(Perhaps even later since Mantle is still in active development.)

That and focusing on features that only part of the userbase would have access to isn't too sensible, probably why we still have only seen some games utilizing PhysX for anything major.
(To use that as a example once again.)

EDIT: New technology though, start small and then we'll see if it works out or if AMD moves to DirectX 12 (And OpenGL) instead or works on utilizing Mantle further regardless?
(That's for later on in the future however, Mantle will probably be around for quite a while I guess.)


EDIT: Back to the game itself though is there any news on additional content or is the game considered finished?
(Well the lower than anticipated reviews and sales probably put a bit of a dent in those plans.)

same here Sabin. I'm doing whatever I can to try to stay interested. Turned off all the waymarkers and help, going as master difficulty, no focus, and achieving ghost on everything so far.... but I've only played through chapter 4 and so I'm only half way through and I just have NO interest in continuing.

South Park came out while I was wondering if I wanted to keep playing and then that played a nice distraction for a week and now I'm truly considering installing FO:NV again just cuz I'm so pleased with Obsidian about South Park and I just can't bring myself to play this version of "Thief" anymore.

It sometimes stutters like mad on mine too, shitty streaming rubbish as always. I hope Epic have fixed that for UE4 but I doubt it It's worse at the start of the level and then at various points throughout .. which is hilarious given how damned small the levels are. As for "hope my new rig will handle that just fine" - ninja please, there ain't nothing your new rig won't destroy

 Spoiler:
 


@deadseasquirrel

I haven't even gotten to chapter/act 4 yet. I just can't drum up the willpower :\

It's ridiculous, this game looks so bad compared to Blacklist and that one ran smooth for you, didn't it?

Knowing the shitness of this port, I am not so sure Laughing It's so weird that the port is this bad, especially considering Nixxes was behind it.

Yup, haven't had any problems with Blacklist on high settings and even a 2x AA IIRC.

I love Nixxes but I think a lot of people have forgotten just how shitty DXHR ran when it first came out, the stuttering was horrendous and rendered the game pretty much unplayable in DX11 mode for most people at the time. It took several patches before it was finally a truly smooth experience.

I put Thief on my SSD so it ran smooth for the little amount of time I could bear it. In hindsight, the "damage" it did to my SSD's controllers, it was such a shame. Laughing

Guys, sorry if this has already been discussed, but is there a solution to the stutter fest in this game?

I have a 680 sli but it stutters like shit.

Just want to make sure it is nothing on my end.


Thanks!

this problem only exist on pc that play in higher resolution then 720p ...grinhurt

its a streaming map error , its the same bloody stream error that Bioschock Infinite had on PC... they failed to turn on LOD , cache cleaning and GPU ram cleaning of not needed textures

heck, they did a terrible job optimizing the Unreal Engine on the PC ,
some used Bioschock Infinite workarounds to fix this errors ,
some play in 720p because higher resolutions in some magic way force you to have a GPU with 3 gigs or 5gig of ram *facepalm* ...
its choking and lagging because when your GPU ram is depleted it uses Virtual memory and murders your HDD with constant readings ...
most users used theirs SDD and moved windows virtual memory there just to get faster reading times grinhurt

so no , there are no official fixes or patches for this game only workarounds for a problem that should not be there right from the start ...
