Patch 4.2

AGE2 Version 4.2.673698

getfps -- reports the current FPS for the max frame rate and UI frame rate.



setmaxfps # -- Set it between 5 and whatever you want, and the game will render as fast as possible. If it caps out at 60, then turn off your v-sync. This is still restricted to 30fps in multiplayer games due to the fact it is tightly coupled to network events and running a network game at 60fps would result in double the network activity for each player. As mentioned we’re working on trying to decouple these in the future



setuifps # -- Set it between 1 and whatever you want, but it will not exceed the max fps. This works in both single and multiplayer games.

The “Error 25” message when adding a large preview image has been improved.



Validation should no longer stall if the player has not accepted the Steam User Agreement.



Legacy mods now show the appropriate icons for subscribed and published.



Invalid mod files will now be removed when running the game (If the player had extension-less files in their mods directory that matched the name of the mod they were trying to upgrade the extraction would fail).

Images are no longer cropped.



Mouse wheel scrolling now functions correctly.

In the Editor the Choose Teams options does not affect Triggers.



We are still working through other issues as well (like Editor, AI and forum post concerns).



Embedded AI scripts inside campaigns are not properly being referenced. As a workaround, you can include necessary files to run campaigns inside resources/_common/ai/ folder.



Civilizations are not randomizing correctly.



Multiplayer file transferring is still encountering issues.



FPS issues are still occurring and we are activing trying to improve performance.

*edit*If you're seeing a discolored cursor, simply disabling and renabling vsync should resolve it. It's been added to the known issues list and will be resolved with the next patch.Discussion thread:We've exposed a few in-game chat commands that allows you to customize the performance to your desires and needs. Most computers can handle 30FPS and draw the UI every frame without issue, but some systems cannot. The default will be set to 10 updates / second for the UI, but now it is fully customizable. Here are the chat commands:
