Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered v1.907.0.0 Patch Notes

[Nixxes_Community]

Hey everyone!

Today we have another patch available for Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered. With this update we address an issue that could cause crashes and other issues when starting a new game or loading a save game for a select group of players. We also fixed a bug that halted progression for some users in the Uninvited mission and fixed an issue that caused erratic camera movement when aiming mid-air during combat with the right mouse button.

This week's update is relatively small, as many team members have been enjoying some well-deserved time off. Rest assured that we continue our work on updates, with a focus on new features, performance improvements and more bugfixes.

Release Notes

• Fixed an issue that could cause crashes when starting a new game or loading a save game for a small group of players.
  
• Fixed an issue that prevented some players from equipping the camera in the mission Uninvited, halting their progression.
  
• Fixed an issue that caused erratic camera movements when aiming mid-air during combat when using mouse and keyboard.
  
• Fixed an issue that could cause the game to freeze when using Alt-Tab after exiting Photo Mode under specific circumstances.

Known Issues

• Some players using Intel GPUs cannot take a picture of the Empire State building, blocking their progression. Intel released a driver update for Arc GPUs[www.intel.com] and a beta driver for other Intel GPUs[www.intel.com] that addresses this issue.
  
• Some players with AMD Radeon GPUs experience visual issues with shadows and sunlight in the game. AMD is aware and investigating.

Ongoing investigations

We continue our investigations into the topics mentioned below and are analyzing data from players that have reached out to us so far. We really appreciate the time and effort they have taken in providing us with diagnostic captures to assist our investigations. We still welcome players with similar issues to contact support[insom.games], so we can gather more data and insights on what is causing the issues.

• Some players are mentioning performance degradation after playing for a long amount of time. So far, we have not been able to reproduce this issue, but our investigations are ongoing, and we are analyzing data from players experiencing these issues to get a better understanding of the potential underlying problem.
  
• Some players on laptops with NVIDIA GPUs are reporting significantly lower performance than what would be expected from their hardware. We are investigating this potential issue together with NVIDIA.
  
• Some players are reporting that some game achievements are not unlocking correctly for them. We are investigating.

Rollback to previous version

If you are experiencing new issues with the update, please let us know via Insomniac Support[insom.games]. If necessary, you can rollback to the previous version. Right click the game, select Properties, go to Betas and select previous_version.

Performance degradation is still present and the game still runs better with HT disabled. Great work!

Please address the issues with lower fps and perfomance when hyperthreading is enabled. Don't ignore it.

[Pantera Cor de Xota]

Still low performance, can't play after a few minutes. It starts fine, then it all goes to hell and starts stuttering.

Honestly, it doesn't seem like they're ignoring this kind of issues:

There are sure to be more significant and also performance-focused patches to come.

I already completed the game and haven't played since. Thanks for releasing it on PC, I enjoyed it.

Still installed on my system so I get these patches. I wanted to also commend/praise you on your patching process. Many titles/studios release HUGE patches for tiny fixes. That yours are small and apply quickly is a testament to the underlying work.

Better to get one big quality patch after a while that fixes most of the problems than tiny ones every week that fix only some specific things at a time but break others in the process, way to go man....

Disabling hyper-threading more than doubled my performance with a 12700k and RTX3080. Before it was a stuttery, low fps mess that was completely unplayable with ray tracing enabled. After disabling HT, it actually runs quite well.

With HT enabled, there were two threads which were repeatedly swapping back and forth between being maxed out in task manager. With HT disabled, there are two cores which are constantly pinned at 100% CPU usage.

EDIT - Should mention I am on Windows 10 Pro 21H2 19044.1889.

I can't play anymore on Linux...

Black screen after MARVEL splash screen... I was able to play the last patch.

Have you tried verifying the integrity of the game files on Steam? If that does not solve it, please contact support so we can analyze your crash dumps.

Thank you for your ongoing fixes. Please don't forget about the insane sensitivity when inspecting objects etc using a controller.

Occurs on both my xbox elite series 1 and series 2, others have the same issue on standard xbone controllers and the elites.

Thanks.

It's true. I also noticed this using the Xbox 360 controller.

Also, since release, I always have had to open the gadgets menu twice when first loading a game. The first time I hit the button, the menu comes up for a fraction of a second. The 2nd time it opens up and slows down time as it should.

If necessary, you can rollback to the previous version. Right click the game, select Properties, go to Betas and select previous_version.

This go back to version 1.831.2.0. However, it is from this version that we encounter performance problems. Need to go back to previous_previous_version.
