Today’s update is bringing good news for all AMD users that use Windows: you can expect a performance boost of 50 – 200%. This means that you can now play and test Cattle and Crops with higher graphic settings.
Linux users can also look forward to the update: Cattle and Crops now has a Linux compatible launcher. We have to add that we can’t guarantee accurate rendering or bugless graphics when you use open source drivers.
There is a new version of the Cattle and Crops launcher. Unfortunately you have to take a slight detour with this version. In order to activate the new launcher you just have to follow these steps:
- Start the launchpad via Programs / Cattle and Crops
- Enter your account data (username & password) and press ‘Login’
- It crashes! (‘Launchpad doesn’t work anymore’) Don’t panic!
- Log in again, press ‘Update’ and wait for the download to finish
- When you start the launcher the next time, you’ll have the current version where you don’t have to log in any longer.
As always you can keep track of the improvements, bug fixes and changes that have also found their way into the current version in our changelog.
Changelog:
