Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection has been on PC for more than eight months, and all this time, the title suffered from one major problem — a camera stutter when playing it with a mouse. Thankfully, a recently released patch finally addressed the lingering issue; but that's not all that Patch 1.4 did.
Several resolutions have been made for other issues in the Uncharted PC. A new menu option called the mouse smoothing has been added, allowing users to adjust the smoothing level of mouse movement.
New audio compatibility options have been introduced as well. You can find them under Options > Audio > Compatibility. The new options let you choose which sounds should play through the OS spatial sound driver, fixing issues like muffled or quiet audio.
The Latency option has also been added that allows you to adjust the delay between sound requests and playback, making it more reliable, especially on lower-spec CPUs. Increasing latency can also solve problems like pops, clicks, and distorted sound, as well as compatibility issues with large buffer sizes and certain wireless headphones
Patch 1.4 Changelog
- Improvement to address camera jitter experienced by some mouse and keyboard users
- Added a new menu option to allow users to adjust the smoothing level of mouse movement (Options > Controls > Mouse Smoothing)
- Added new Audio Compatibility options (Options > Audio > Compatibility)
- Output Mode: Adjust which sounds are played through the OS spatial sound driver. Select different settings if you experience muffled, missing, or unusually quiet audio. If you are experiencing abnormally quiet music or dialogue during cutscenes, for example, try the Spatial mode instead of the Hybrid default.
- Latency: Adjust the short period of delay between when a sound effect is requested and when it plays. Higher latency improves reliability of audio playback, especially on lower spec CPUs. Increase this value if you are experiencing pops, clicks, or distorted sound. Higher latencies also resolve issues with audio interfaces configured with large buffer sizes and some wireless headphones.
You can check out the complete patch notes via the official site. PC players can purchase Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection from Steam for only $29.99.
In other news, the Sony game Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is making its way to PC. Microsoft Windows players will be able to play the former PS5 title starting July 26.
