Task Force Patch Notes — April 23, 2024
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
This update makes some significant performance enhancements to the user interface system. We are now using something called "accelerated paint" in order to provide a much more responsive and snappier UI. However this system is currently only in place for DirectX 11 and is not finalized on DirectX 12, which means you would have to manually switch into this graphics mode for the time being. However this is a huge step forward for us to ensure we have a user interface that runs smoothly at a similar FPS to the game.
There's also been some adjustments to smoke grenades, which should now deploy faster than before, as the timer has been reduced by 1 second. We've added some new graphics commands as well to disable some newer features such as virtual shadow maps via the graphics_vsm command.
