Honestly, I'll wait until MS releases it on connect. That link needs to be reported or something. There's something hinky about it.

SP1 has been better than the final ed. Just still has bugs and uncomfortable aspects to it. I'd wait for a final release of SP1 if you are not an official MS beta tester. It simply isn't worth it.

The link tells you how to edit a file, thats all. It works fine, and tested fine.

If you don't want to run SP1 RC then pass on it. A lot of people would like the opportunity, and this way is legit and works fine.

Running it 3 days, no issues at all

Why do you want to report a link? People like you ruin it for everyone.

Can anyone report on how good this one is compared to the latest v.275 that's on the Microsoft Connect website? It takes FOREVER to uninstall it so hopefully someone whos tried both can tell me if it's worth installing this newer version. Thanks :)

You should always run the newest version of a SP1 Beta. It fixes things that were previously not working or not tweaked in previous versions.

Well that's the thing, I never had ANY problems with the older version and my system already felt so much snappier... If the latest version of SP1 didn't change all that much over the v.275, it'd be better to save me from the hassle of waiting forever for the thing to uninstall, install it again and just wait for the final...

i cant seem to download is there something special i have to do?

You follow the instructions?

There are 3 updates you need to DL off windows update (each one is seperate).

After downloading 1, reboot, rerun update, download next, reboot, etc. Finally after the 3rd, you'll see sp1 there

It's not on Connect yet. Meh. I'll just wait until it is. Thanks for the heads up anyway.

I dont think it will be on there anytime soon. Never is, they did the same thing before. Everyone known to man had a build by getting it from other sources and the testers are left without it.

i dunno about you guys but my fresh install (installed Sunday NOvember 11th) still feels faster than before. I haven't even had a chance to install all my software yet. So this was just installed and i installed the beta 1 day after so i can definitely say there's an improvement. Also some show stopper bugs in v.275 is the reason why i formatted back to RTM. NOw back on Beta and i love it so far :)

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
