The primary driver behind was a memory leak that affected users with 6GB or less of VRAM when entering Castle Dimitrescu. The previous build (v26.05.2023) caused stuttering and eventual crashes after 45-60 minutes of play. This update specifically patches the texture streaming pool, reducing VRAM overhead by approximately 15% during heavy fog and particle effect scenes.
