- Patch Title: Black screen fix
- Patch Release Date: April 7, 2024
The developer of Outcore has released a new update for the game on April 7, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
For a while many people who opened Outcore more than one time ended up not seeing their desktop (aka The Notorious Black Screen bug).
Solving it required asking users to navigate to Outcore.exe on their Windows filesystem, opening its properties, and disabling fullscreen optimizations in the compatibility tab. While this solution works, it is not ideal to ask users to go through all that. To make it worse, many users never even find out about this solution so they end up quitting.
This (I hope) changes today. I finally found the registry entry that remembers if fullscreen optimizations should be enabled/disabled, so I made the game force disable it when it launches. You may need to launch the game more than once to see it take effect.
