New: the game and the launcher now start on older processors without AVX2

  • The game and the launcher now work on processors without AVX2, such as Intel Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge (Core i7-2600, i7-3770K and similar). Before, they closed at once when started.

  • You do not need to choose anything. Start the game or the launcher as usual: the game checks your processor and picks the right version by itself. Newer processors still use the fast version, nothing changes for them.

  • The game folder is now about 60 MB bigger, because it holds both versions. The file uc.exe is now a tiny starter, and the game itself runs as uc_avx2.exe or uc_compat.exe. Please keep all three files.

  • Your firewall may ask once for permission again when you play over the network, because the game now runs under a new file name.

  • Network games between a new processor and an old one work together.

Fixes

  • The launcher and the game no longer close right after start on processors without AVX2 (issue 17).

Known limits

  • The version for older processors has not been tested on a real processor without AVX2 yet. If it still does not start, please write to us with your processor name.

  • On older processors the game can run slower than on new ones, and some busy scenes may be less smooth.
