The fifth patch for Alan Wake on PC was released yesterday. The patch covers the following:
Alan Wake v1.06 release notes:
- Added a “Very Low” graphics setting to enable the game to run on lower performance GPUs. This disables MSAA and grass (that’s dependent on it) and disables fading between LOD levels.
- Added grass draw distance slider - note that the HIGH setting now uses more computer performance.
- Fixed Alt+Tab crash on some systems.
- Fixed a very rare startup crash.
- Fixes some cases where the game started to main menu but users could not select any menu entries. This was caused by the keybinds.xml being corrupted.
- Fixed some cases of handling custom My Documents paths where game could crash if that was mapped to the root of a drive.
- Fixed the minor DLC1 “black cubes in the mirror” graphical glitch.
