- Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) support status is unknown.
Issues fixed
RTSS (Rivatuner Statistics Server) can't see the game .exe
- This is due to the folder where the game is installed requiring administrator access.[18]
Give the folder administrator access.[19] |
---|
|
Issues unresolved
Discord can't see the game
- This is due to the game being an UWP app. Even giving the folder administrator access will not work.[20]
In order to show it, you'll need to stream your desktop screen[21], but this is not recommended since all sounds will be heard and everything that comes in contact with desktop will be shown.
Explicit multi-adapter support
- Support for multiple GPUs was being worked on as of March 2016.[22]
Frame rate drops after Windows 10 update 1809
- Frame rate on ultra settings varies from 120 to 30 FPS independently of hardware. It is a known issue that the developers are aware of but regard as a low priority.[23] Setting shadows to low can fix FPS drops for some users (even when reported GPU load is low).[24]
- This may be internet folklore according to Digital Foundry.[25]
