Version 0.9 Development

We have collected a wide amount of user feedback and the most important aspect of Realm of Rulers that people mention is the frame rate.

Optimization

Many users have issues hitting above 60fps whilst playing Realm of Rulers and this is usually because of the lack of a powerful dedicated graphics card. We want to make Realm of Rulers accessible to all players by giving acceptable frame rates on as many hardware configurations that we can.

For the last two weeks we have been focusing on improving the base frame rate that every player can achieve. From adjusting LOD settings (level of detail) for foliage such as trees and grass to optimizing the landscape mesh, this first phase of optimization for 0.9 is going very well with our in engine tests improving our frame rate from 35-40 fps to over 85-90 fps. This optimization is still being worked on and more information will come soon.

General bug fixes and Quality of Life

This patch will also include fixes for issues concerning UI, inventory functions, crafting and combat.

These systems work for players and give the gameplay that they need but there are small issues that we would like to polish and improve. An example of this would be to prevent the mouse not showing when an interface is opened.

Polishing these elements will improve the gameplay for all users and should make the game more enjoyable by preventing issues with new players and existing players’ experiences.
