Here we go. This client include a bunch of lil fixes everywhere, although most wont be noticeable.

It most likely include some bugs, it has not been extensively tested yet, and also, is not considered "ready for a live patch".

It include an attempt to fix whats usually referred to whitescreen (or freeze) that happen when you alttab/resize/minimize the client and i figured some of you guys might want that as fast as possible .

As it is right now, people with slow gpu bandwith will probably notice a decent fps slowdown, if thats your case, do not worry, currently i simply disabled the optimization that caused the freeze to happen, but i intend to have it fixed instead of just disabling it, for when we do a real patch.

I also enabled the multi-threaded loading for when you start the client, please tell me if you experience any bluescreen / system crash when loading the client (or other weird crashes on load).

Isn't this SS related?

Thnx Jey, I look forward to the next patch.

When i start it. Its says error on permission make sure you have it able to write configs. How did i fix this?

you probably have set your star sonata.exe to run as admin (bad thing, but work). You can either make the beta exe also run as admin, or you can make sure your user have the permission to write to the configs directory.

That error is something i added about 2 months ago, to warn people who have permissions issue (configs not saving etc). You can play even if the error appear, just that any configs or other changes you make, wont stick.

new version, see first post for details.

Link doesnt work

Why is this a seprate client and not just a patch to the existing one ?
