Hey #TeamShadow,

 

Welcome to the last week of August! Here is a new release to feed your hunger for improvements while getting your summer tan on

 

TLDR: A fix for the 2 GPU Quick Menu issue on Windows, adding support for Xbox Controller Elite V2 on macOS, Metal renderer now available on macOS and iOS to improve performance, and the Quick Menu finally live on Linux.

 

Here are all the nitty-gritty details for this week:  

 

Shadow Official 

 

Desktop - Launcher v4.16.5

  • Shadow Renderer v3.3.15 

 

All Platforms

  • Display management: Redesign of the custom resolution pop up

  • USB peripherals (Win, macOS): USB unforwarding should now work properly when you close Shadow

  • Quick Menu: Statistic time range setting is now saved between sessions

  • Audio: Less impact on CPU performance

  • Nvidia driver setting is now saved at an account level. It will now be consistent whatever the app you are using to access your Shadow 

  • Cursor: Fix early lock mode that was blocking the cursor even before the Shadow stream starts

Hey, I’ve noticed the shadow logo in the top has disappeared so I can no longer open the quick menu. Any ideas as to what might be causing this? I don’t appear to be able to launch it via the keyboard shortcut either (this is on MacOS).

Is the new iOS/tvOS app version 3.1.0 which released on August 17 or has it not been pushed for public distribution yet?
