nipsen: So why would someone spend time compiling changes between the builds, when the intended audience for this information responds the way they do?

ppattumi: Spirit of service?

Seriously, 'haters' won't change idea regardless of what happens as they look perfectly capable of finding endless sources of inspiration with or without external feed.
Those who still enjoy the game and try to keep positive, on the other hand, will benefit a lot if HG show they really care. And since I think they do, they should keep releasing patch notes...

...unless there are some legal implications in doing that.
Like "every patch note you write can and will be used against you in a court of law".

Are we already at this point?

ThorChild: What AV did you use (it is likely a false-positive)? I scan with a number of things and none reported a problem? Are you on Windows 10 perhaps, if so it might be the OS forcing the delete of an un-signed (non MS certified) .exe file?

But to put people at ease over that last post, the 1.09.1 patch is not a virus. It just changes the game exe. After the patch the NMS.exe file is smaller than it was previously, but still runs the game fine (even with all my mods).

In my case it 'seems' to reduce frame rate a little (always difficult to be sure with NMS), and not sure if this was that patches doing or not, but for the first time i found an Emeril column which had a navigation point over it (like when you use your binocular vision on a building and get that 'dot' in the compass) that i did not place there (you can not 'scan' features like mineral stacks etc).

That was not all, that particular marked Emeril column kept regenerating itself after i had left it to sell my haul. I returned again and most of it was back (i had mined it to the flat surface level and just had the base in the ground to extract), about 2/3rds of it was again above ground, but not a visual bug, the mineral was there, so i mined it again, filled up my carrying capacity then went to sell that and came back to check (the waypoint marker dot thing was still there), and it had regenerated some of it back again.

I decided at that point that this must be a bug and because i was not sure what was in the patch, wondered if it had introduced this 'easter-egg' into the game. With the possible small drop in fps and no patch notes to see what had been changed (to see if anything matched what i was seeing) i decided to revert back to the previous 1.09 exe.

So maybe something odd is in that update, but it is not a virus (scanned with plenty of tools, totally safe).

ELOYAHEL: How can i reverse back to 1.09? does GoG has a archive for older games versions?

ELOYAHEL: @ThorChild I don't use GoG Galaxy just download the raw game install files.. and now they only have the 1.09.1 game kit :(( i wann go back because i feel like something of substance got lost in the 1.09.1 patch in order for the game to run faster..and it does, OMG like i can now set every graphic seeting to the max and play with nice FPS! <3

BUUUUUT!! My cursor movement is erratic fast.. before the patch the sensitivity was default at 50/50 and was nice, but now in 1.09.1 is crazy fast even i lowered to 0/0 in game, the space feels the same as movement and quality, but the planet surfaces they have something missing as quality, example: just landed on this planet was mostly shadowy ground it had a lame low green glow and the buildings dark with no grown reflecting ..so artificial looking ewww bleh i had to quit the game, rebooted with all the graphics to the max ..and it was the same.., so now is fast but ugly i think. that why i wanna go back to 1.09 :(( slower but more nice looking

Red_Eagle_LXIX: If you email GoG support they can probably provide you the 1.07 install files.

Pretty sure I have seen similar things mentioned in the past about game install files here on GoG. Great folks on the team.

nipsen: .......The game now happily skips rendering the ground if there's something else going on. And another set of weird light-problems turned up. Performance is "trade slightly increased second lod and shorter first lod for marginally increased fps".

So yeah. Really great.

Seriously - what the hell are they doing?
