KNOWN ISSUES (to be fixed with an incoming patch)
For PC players using mouse & keyboard:
- In version 1.02.1431188, it is possible to rebind the input meant to go back to the game after reading any letter. But even if players change that key, they still need to use the default one (Backspace) to be able to move on. If no input works properly, players must use right-click on a mouse.
For PC players with ultrawide monitors:
- Currently on 21:9 screens, the original image becomes cropped. We’re working on a fix for this that’ll come at the end of November, but until then you can fix it locally by following these instructions:
- Follow this path on your computer: %localappdata%/ASC/Saved/Config/Windows/
- Open the file Engine.ini (you can use Notepad, for instance)
- Add the following directly in the file:
[/script/asc.asclocalplayer]
MaxAspectRatio=1.7777777777777
Graphics (PC):
- On the first launch of Jusant, the game may automatically recognize your graphics settings to be lower than they actually are. While we work on a fix, you can manually set your graphics a level higher and see how you go.
