Developer FNTASTIC launched a new patch for the horror survival game Propnight not long ago, which the company touts as the biggest optimization update released for the game so far.
Patch 4.1.0 provides significant boosts in FPS. The company said that the frames per second count are now doubled, providing Propnight players with much smoother gameplay. Some optimizations have been made to improve game performance as well.
It’s also worth noting that the option to switch between DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 has been added. Players may receive additional performance benefits when switching to DirectX 12. However, the game might crash on some systems when using the newer API. It’s a good thing that the option to use DirectX 11 is there in case this happens.
For balancing adjustments, the Hypnochair is now set at 120 seconds instead of 60 to 120 seconds previously. This change gives survivors more time to escape. On top of that, survivors saved from the Hypnochair now have their HP restored to full.
In terms of bug fixes, the issue where survivor abilities do not work as intended has been resolved.
