Performance and Stability – Conan Exiles Update 1.88 Patch Notes

• Fixed a number of crashing and stability issues.
• Fixed additional crashing issues in regards to several systems in the game.
• Optimized loading times especially on lesser hardware and old gen consoles. This should result in shorter loading times in some cases.
• Addressed an issue that could cause abnormally long loading times after respawning.
• Fixed an issue that caused framerate to drop when placing Illusionist Mirrors.
• Improved performance when opening inventory boxes or opening crafting stations. This should be most noticeable on last-gen consoles.
• Spawning undead via the Admin panel should no longer crash the game, but it will still bother the necromancer union.
• Optimized memory usage of spells.
• Implemented optimization changes which should result in lesser memory usage and derived performance problems when being near NPCs and fighting.
• Improved memory usage when receiving resources into the inventory.
• Implemented a system that will prioritize loading of models based on whether they are visible or occluded by building pieces or placeables. This should improve performance and game stability in busy areas by avoiding out-of-memory crashes.

Exploit Fixes

• Addressed several exploits in regards to bypassing physical walls.
