Years in the making, every effort has been taken to assure that Ivory II is a true and worthy successor to the legacy established by our original Ivory products. Ivory II represents the most significant design enhancement to Ivory's custom piano technology since its introduction. Synthogy's decades of expertise in piano development, along with proprietary "timbre interpolation" technology combine to deliver greater fidelity, unrivaled playability, and a musical experience that is unsurpassed. Each Ivory piano has been further refined and developed, including expanded velocity levels (up to 18 per piano), additional soft pedal samples, and more release samples. Additionally, features like Timbre Shifting, Parametric EQ, and new Synth Layer controls offer powerful new sound sculpting capabilities for custom piano programming and sound design.Īt the heart of Ivory II are Ivory's legendary pianos. Ivory II also delivers some of Synthogy’s most frequent customer requests, with features such as Half Pedaling, Lid Position, Pedal Noise, and Tuning Tables to provide even greater detail and control. The result is an unprecedented new level of realism. Rather, notes struck that are harmonically related excite the actual complex overtones of the notes that are being held, in the same manner that undamped strings ring in a real acoustic piano. Additionally, the Ivory 2.5 Piano Engine includes new features, such as: Shimmer: unique control over sustain and.
This update supports PACE’s machine-based license authorization scheme as well as the traditional PACE iLok key. Harmonic Resonance Modeling is a brand new technology that does not rely upon triggering additional samples, ordinary sine waves, or recordings in any way. Ivory II-Studio Grands is also the first Synthogy piano collection to ship with the new Ivory 2.5 Piano Engine. Principal among them is Sympathetic String Resonance, a long sought after but elusive characteristic of real pianos that Synthogy approaches in a completely new and unique way, realizing the true complexities and subtleties of sympathetic string excitation. Ivory II Grand Pianos will breathe under your fingers, inspiring your best performance from a truly organic instrument.Ī host of new piano-centric features have been added to the Ivory II engine.

Hellogames have seemingly put a lot of effort in this time around, focussing purely on the biggest flaws in the game (poor combat, poor performance), which is very refreshing to see after many updates that added cool stuff but never focussed on the vital things that made the game loop stale.Īs for the combat overhaul, I spent a few hours buying and building new upgrades so I didn't do much in the way of combat, but I did notice the weapon effects are cooler looking now, they even added recoil to the scattergun.Įdit: while official FSR support is awesome, I just want to say thank you to fholger again for all of my other games that rely on his work to be playable. Frametime stability also seems better too but I could be imagining it. Visually it is significantly better on the same quality settings, presumably because the official FSR support means that the image processing can be done earlier in the rendering pipeline to produce optimal results. I removed the FSR openVR api file, validated files to replace it, then booted the game up, went into the graphics options and set the quality mode from there. Just FSR of course, DLSS is only available to the ivory tower GPUs.
NMS' patch notes mentioned support for FSR and DLSS, and over the weekend I tested it. So like many of you, I've been using fholger's FSR hack for the better VR games available, games like NMS, Pavlov, SkyrimVR and Fallout4VR.
