We have just released our first hotfix for Imperator: Rome! Thank you for all your feedback!

Please note that this patch won't be compatible with 1.0 Ironman saves. We apologize for the inconvenience caused, but it was not possible to do the necessary fixes and remain save game compatible. The previous version will still be available in the Betas tab for those who want to finish an ongoing Ironman game before updating. Non Ironman games should still be fine however!
(Right click Imperator: Rome in Steam -> properties -> BETA -> pick 1.0 in the dropdown list)

Please don't report any issues in this thread. Please use our bug report forum!

Will achievements work on 1.0?

As a general rule with PDS games, old versions work with whichever achievements exist in that version. So for example if 1.1 introduces some new achievement you wouldn't be able to get that if you rolled back to 1.0 but you can still get achievements that existed in 1.0. I would expect it will be the same with I:R.
 
Loving the patch notes!

I tested the stuttering fix. It indeed does seem to be better. Not perfect, but better, when the game is unpaused.

As for when it's paused (which the patch didn't say it fixed anyway), I still get stuttering when zooming in and out. For reference, I have Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, i7 4790k @ 4.3 GHz, GTX 1080, 16GB RAM @ 2133 MHz. Also playing the game in 1440p. Vsync on or off, framelimit on or off, it doesn't matter. I use the High preset in game. Also it's pretty crazy how my GPU even spikes up to 100% usage.

OOS, stability, performance fixes... More of this please. :)

And interface improvements would be most welcome also!
 
Stuttering still the same and up scaling has disappeared on 1920x1080 which is very unfortunate as I was playing on 1.1. Now the fonts are too small on my TV.

EDIT: After reinstalling the game and restarting my PC, the stuttering is less prominent and it seems the fonts have been up scaled at 1.0. That's why maybe they didn't allow to go to 1.2 anymore. I don't know.
