A small update to 1.9.3 with an online fix and better settings for laptops. With work from Awaken (online) and Nick (launcher).
Updating: press Update in the launcher, or unpack the zip over your install. Your saves, settings and mods are kept.
On 1.9.3? Its launcher can't update itself (fixed in 1.9.4): download Bloodborne-Windows.zip below and unpack it over your install (your saves, settings and mods are kept). After that, new versions show up in the launcher again.
Online
- "Failed to acquire Bloodborne server information" fixed for players whose antivirus scans HTTPS connections (Avast, AVG, Kaspersky and others), or whose Windows had not fetched a server's root certificate yet. If Windows trusts the server, the game does too; bad certificates are still refused. (Awaken)
Launcher
- New versions are offered again: 1.9.3's launcher never showed "Version X is available", and "Check for updates" didn't work either.
- Laptops get the right settings: the hardware check now knows laptop processors (H, HK, U and similar), which are slower than the desktop chips of the same name. When the processor sets the frame rate, the launcher says so and doesn't lower the picture for nothing. (Nick)
- No more 30 FPS cap on fast PCs: a processor above the minimum with a strong graphics card could get a 30 FPS cap from the automatic settings. (Nick)
- Game tests are off for now: the "Measure on this PC" tests come back later with a fixed benchmark character. System & tests is now Your PC: its rating and the system requirements. (Nick)
- Benchmark for bug reports (Advanced): a fixed route in Cathedral Ward on its own save, with your settings, and one zip to send. It now really walks and turns the camera; in 1.9.3 it measured the hunter standing still.
