• Released Version 1.1.1.817 - 19 August 2024

  Fixed a race condition issue that could cause Chill Boost to crash.Updated Chill Boost to improve support for newer processors.Changed Chill Boost Efficiency Locker Mode default to Performance.

Users who desire greater energy efficiency should still try the Efficiency Optimized mode.Adjusted Efficiency Locker to be automatically deactivated when another user is in an interactive session. This effects when Simplode Suite is still running under one user but the interactive session is now operating under another user. In this case, thermal and load limits will remain active.

• Upcoming Product Announcement: Virtual Touch Screen 2 - 23 September 2023

  I would imagine that many of you have been wanting to use the Virtual Touch Screen but do not have a KinectV2. Well, after years of work, it is time to announce that my new product, Virtual Touch Screen 2, will be in early access soon. It will have very low requirements and operate with a simple webcam rather than the KinectV2. Virtual Touch Screen 2 will be a standalone product, but in the future I may be able to provide full integration with Simplode Suite for maximum synergy. If you are interested, please follow the Virtual Touch Screen 2 store page. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2588630/Virtual_Touch_Screen_2/?beta=1 I can't give a release date yet, but I can say the wait should not be very long. I am planning to have a play test soon and will be eager to receive feedback.
