1.6.2 RC 2 has been promoted to final release! The stable stream will now upgrade to 1.6.2 automatically (when you sign in).

1.6.2 uses DirectX 9, instead of DX7, so if you have any compatibility problems, please add an entry to Ministry: https://ministry.kronosaur.com/program.hexm?id=1

You may also look at these new settings to attempt to debug the problem: https://ministry.kronosaur.com/record.hexm?id=6175

Thanks for all the help debugging.

I'm currently working on two streams in parallel. I'm working on a 1.7 stream, which will be used for the betas of Part II (still many months away). And I'm working on a 1.6.3 stream, which will have more Steam features and bug fixes.

Thank you, George!

Side note: does this mean you might start streaming/recording through steam now?

He's streaming a playthrough of the game. Great fun to watch live, or so I've been told.

I thought he was using twitch. So doesnt George have a current gpu? Nvidia gtx 7xx or 9xx? Or amd rx 2xx or rx 3xx? He could have used H.264 Shadowplay or AMD and Raptr's gaming evolved app.
