Hello everyone or Hallo allerseits (how we say in germany) and welcome to this big Status Devlog and when I say big, it’s huge because I have so much to tell you guys so sit back, relax and let’s directly begin!

New DJ devices and concert barricades!

Yes it finally happened! I have replaced those old DJ devices with the newest stuff that is currently on the market.
Also we finally have decent concert barricades. I don’t want to tease you more, just take a look:

New Specta Stage flora

As you have seen in the pictures above something other changed at the Specta Stage. And yes it’s the vegetation!
The Specta Stage is supposed to be in the season of the year fall but it never looked like it. Also the pine trees didn’t moved in the wind.
I took my time to overhaul the vegetation to make it look like fall and now every plant is going with the wind in perfect harmony.

We have all different kinds of trees now like oaks, birches, maples, pines, spruces and cherry trees.
But before you loose your eyes in this beautiful environment let’s go on to the next topic.

Video Manager 3.0

Yes I have overhauled the Video Manager a second time. Everything is way more sorted and clear and you finally can adjust the brightness of the video screens!

Huge fps improvements

As you might know Stage Simulator is kinda eating many fps with all those lights and functions. I still want to make this game playable on low-end PCs. You could simply change your graphics settings but that is not an option for me because it looses the beautifulness. I decided to give Stage Sim Occlusion Culling support which increases the fps very much.
Besides that some big fps eating objects get culled too even when they are in the FOV but you can’t see them.

And that’s it for this Status Devlog. I hope you like these news.
I don’t know yet when game update 0.21 is going to be released but I would say in the first half of next month.
See you then and have a great day!
