    Graphical Changes

    • Changed terrain texture compression to give a smoother look.
    • Added a new Anisotropic Filtering option in Advanced Options.
    • Added post processing to the rendering of items in item info and icons.
    • Improvements to shadows. Tall shadows no longer cut and display shuttered on the ground. Shadows transition more smoothly when updated in the time of day cycle.


    Other

    • It is now possible to hide all user interfaces with the Hide-actions in the action library (Tracked missions, skill progress, pets, etc.).


    Fixed Issues

    • Fixed an issue causing objects to become gray in the level of detail (LoD) step.
    • Improved billboard rendering.


    Known Issues

    • Before launching Entropia Universe, make sure to clear the shader cache. This option can be found in the Tools menu in the Client Loader.

    MindArk and the Planet Partners strive to ensure a smooth and problem-free Version Update. Nevertheless, even after extensive testing some issues may arise after release. Such issues are often addressed via mini-patches directly after a release and in subsequent patches. If you feel that the possibility of encountering minor issues or bugs directly after a Version Update affects your gameplay to an extent that Entropia Universe is not enjoyable, please wait until the mini-patches have been released and any last minute issues have been resolved.

    I had some items displaying correctly in storage but the same item in my inventory was "x" but when I dragged it across and merged it was ok. However different items are not working after later log ins and all my quickkey icons are blank

    This is poo

    Update to the icon mystery. It seems the 2 settings that affect this are the shadow quality and object quality. You can lower all settings but those two, set on high. relog and clear the cache, 99% of all mine came back. exception were 4 enmatter icons in the storage. I hope this helps guys :)

    Thanks. Tried these exact steps, it changed nothing for me though. Most icons remain invisible, and since they had to change sizes around I can't find my stuff by memory either. Ah well. Assuming they have a truckload of support cases to deal with already, better just wait for the patch. I do notice a performance boost, which is nice.

    I'm unable to log in to test. However before this vu I could enter as a team of one and then drop the team once inside.
    Has that changed?

    That worked for me, just have a few enmatter icons not working now, but all my keyboard buttons icons are plain green :(

    fixed my hotkey icons, I'm in V high graphics, changed draw distance and volumetric effects quality to medium and they reappered. change both back to v high and they are still there.

    I'll shut up now
