Dragon Age: The Veilguard Update 1.0.0 Released, Full Patch Notes

07 Nov 2024, 18:09 by John Papadopoulos · DSOGaming

BioWare has just released the first patch for its latest Dragon Age game, Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Title Update 1.0.0 for Dragon Age: The Veilguard brings a number of bug fixes and tweaks. So, let’s take a look at its full patch notes.

Patch 1.0.0 fixes an issue where DLSS options could end up “grayed-out” on a 40-series Nvidia GPU. It also updates Intel XeSS version to 1.3.1. Not only that but it eliminates the cause of a small number of crashes.

Now what’s interesting here is that this update will slightly improve the game’s visuals. As I wrote in my PC Performance Analysis, Dragon Age: The Veilguard already looks great and runs smoothly on PC. So, the fact that the devs have further improved them is a plus.

So, the devs have added collision to several assets that were missing it. Moreover, they fixed several distance “pop-ins” on level art assets. Also, they updated a number of assets to improve visual performance over long distances. Oh, and the devs have also fixed lip sync in some ambient scenes.

And that’s not all. The necks of NPCs will no longer grow unexpectedly. Long hair should now properly mesh with certain armor. And the patch corrects instances where NPCs would not properly look at each other or at Rook.

Naturally, this update also comes with a number of bug fixes. You can find all of them below.

Like always, Steam will download this patch the next time you launch its client. Title Update 1.0.0 is 996MB in size on PC, and below you can find its full patch notes.
