conveen rename workermap2core.xml back to workermap4core.xml.
rename workermap2coreoriginal.xml to workermap2core.xml
All should be back to normal and working again.

Ok I did, but no puddles.

and now? I want my puddles back, damn CM!!

Does not work for me :-(
P i5, F1 identified a core 2

edit your hardware_settings_config.xml file and put this line in
<track_info_system type="gpu" />


So your last two lines should read:

<B>

<track_info_system type="gpu" />
</hardware_settings_config>

Puddles are back for all!!

worked for me in a C2D8400 and 8800GT

Working for me also, although it cuts my FPS in half. I think what they did with this line is shift over som,e weather calculations to the Gpu instead of CPU, removing that line instantly gives me 20-25 fps on benchmark

Cool it works! I got my puddles back omg

Now only 2 problems still with Dx11, when I start the game it is in window mod (the little window you know) I get it in full with ALT+Enter, I know. But this need a fix too aaaannnddd after I start the game it looks very dark. I push back Gamma from 8 to 7 and back to 8 and then the gamma is normal. Why this is so??

Hi,

found in my hardware_settings_config.xml file:

<water update="true" detail="1" />

Could this have something to do with missing puddles?

I have the same problem with DX11, along with drastically reduced framerates after the puddle fix.
Only fix I found was to force the game to run in DX9.
I now have puddles, full screen and much better frame rates.
