Star Citizen DFM Patch Imminent [Sep 11, 2014, 09:39 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
An
Arena Commander V0.9 Status Update on the Roberts Space Industries website
indicates they are very close to releasing the version 0.9 update for the Arena
Commander module for Star Citizen first mentioned
over three months ago when
the debut version 0.8 was released. They explain the hoops they must now go
through in order to push out a patch once their release candidate is improved,
adding they are planning on improving this kludgy-sounding system to streamline
this process going forward. There will apparently be a new hangar patch this
weekend, as shown off in
this user video.
This recent post outlines all the changes planned for version 0.9,
summarizing the news in this shortlist:
- Murray Cup Racing Mode: As shown at Gamescom, players can now race their pledge ships in a specially designed upper-atmospheric scenario!
- Vanduul Swarm Co-Op: Take on the alien hoards with a friend, or competitor!
- Flyable M50 and 350R: The M50 and the 350R have been readied for flight to kick off the race mode. These ships will now be flyable in all Arena Commander game modes.
- Private Matches: Tired of being matched with random players in AC? Private matches will let you play with friends!
- Friend Codes: We’re launching a code system for both private and public matches so you can connect with your wingmen.
- Leaderboards: Your performance in Arena Commander’s various modes will display on the RSI website and allow you to compare with others.
- Updated Ship Performance: We’ve increased the speed and acceleration of every ship. With this we’ve also reworked the afterburner mechanic to increase acceleration instead of top speed.
- HUD Update: We’ve overhauled the usability of the visor HUD interface so you can customize your ships systems much more easily in flight.
- New Hangars: We’ve remastered all of Star Citizen’s Hangars with the new forward-looking room system and added the Asteroid Hangar.
- New Pause Menu: Our refactored pause menu is a large step forward aesthetically, and will support new features like custom keybindings in the future. In the meantime we’ve included selectable profiles for the most common peripherals.
- 6DOF: With the improvements to the IFCS and flight physics we are now ready to introduce 6DOF movement for an entirely new way to fly.

I have CrossFire and SLI working with Arena Commander.
1. Start the game, and press ~ to open the console:
2. Type in the following commands:
r_MultiGPU = 2
r_MotionBlur = 0
r_vsync = 1
r_buffer_sli_workaround = 1
sys_maxfps = 30
sys_maxfps needs to be tweaked, I have mine set to 120 which runs flawlessly, but your rig will be different.
If this does work, and it should due to the bug that is causing the textures to "glitch" then you should create a user.cfg with the listed commands in your starcitizen folder.
Your a PC gamer. Act Accordingly.
Note: For whatever reason, r_vsync must be enabled, despite it not locking the framerate.
What makes ya think that I'm not acting like a PC gamer? Besides your suggestions, which I'm sure I've seen and tried before, changed fuck all. My game is still artifacting like shit. Turning SLI off is not an option for me. I got a 3-screens surround setup with 7680 x 1440 res. Guess what the framerate is like with a single GPU? Bingo.
Fuck this shit. Still waiting for a proper official patch.
It sounds like you're incompetent. Have you tried fixing that issue, first?
Incompetent? Right. And you obviously can't read because I've actually said that I have tried fixing the issue before (in fact many times involving all sorts of tweaking settings, editing, nVidia inspector, redownloading the game, everything...).
Also, you do realize that there are dozens of posts at the official forums complaining about lack of SLI support or asking for a fix? Also, you do certainly realize that CIG is fully aware of the issues and has announced a fix may be coming in Arena Commander v1.0?
Finally, feel free to give me a link and a source where the suggested editing of user.cfg has actually fixed someone's SLI issues.
Since it just seems to be a matter of "competence" it should be easy as pie to find dozens of threads where people are happily reporting that SLI is now working after applying the fix, right? Come on. Hurry up. I'm waiting...
