REMAINING KNOWN BUGS/ISSUES

• CRASH ON LOAD:
  SOLUTION: Add "+novid" to the game's launch parameters on Steam.
  
  
• MISSING TEXTURES/WIREFRAME BUG.
  SOLUTION: Add "+mat_dxlevel 95" to the game's launch parameters on Steam.
  
  
• THE WHITE BUG: All props turn white.
  SOLUTION: Restart the game. We have reduced the likelihood of this error occurring but it's a very random bug so we can't guarantee that you won't run into it.
  
  
• WATER/SKY FLICKER: This can happen when there is water at the beginning of a level.
  SOLUTION: Resolves by itself after a few seconds.
  
  
• SOME VGUI ELEMENTS WON'T RENDER CORRECTLY.
  SOLUTION: Reopen the misbehaving tabs/restart the game. This graphical error is a side effect of the game being ported over from older versions of the Source Engine. Working on it.

NOTES:

• Sometimes level transitions occur after the screen fades to white so the loading icon might be hard to see. Don't worry, the next map is loading, it's not a freeze or crash.
  
  
• Console will not most likely not render properly after this update. Working on it.
  
  
• In some cases when the player is close to a brush and in interactive animations view plane clipping issues can occur. Working on it. 

Enjoy and have fun.

REMAINING KNOWN BUGS/ISSUES

THE WHITE BUG: All props turn white.
SOLUTION: Restart the game. We have reduced the likelihood of this error occurring but it's such a random bug that we can't guarantee yet that you won't run into it.

WATER/SKY FLICKER: This can happen when there is a large body of water at the beginning of a level.
SOLUTION: It goes away on it's own after a few seconds.

SOME VGUI ELEMENTS WON'T RENDER CORRECTLY.
SOLUTION. Reopen the misbehaving tabs/restart the game. This graphical error is a side effect of the game being ported over from older versions of the Source Engine. As soon as a fix is found a patch will be released right away.

Sometimes level transitions occur after the screen fades to white. The loading icon might be hard to see in such instances. Don't worry, the next map is loading, it's not a freeze or crash.

Hey everyone! We've just released a patch for G-String which includes the following changes:

•Previously, loading a saved game would put the player at an incorrect angle. This has been fixed.
•FOV cap increased to 120, over the previous limit of 90. Playing with a high FOV may result in minor visual errors at the edge of the screen during cutscenes, which will be resolved for each cutscene in a future patch.
•Engine limits increased, which should resolve a variety of spontaneous late game save corruption issues / crashes.
•Fixed view clipping while using interactive objects, such as valves, levers, and buttons.
•Fixed an issue where the loading screen wouldn't display properly, instead showing a black screen while loading.
