After the UE5 update happened in December and I couldn't get the textures to load, I stopped following the game for a while just because I thought it had a possibility to get fixed later. tbh I'm super disappointed it never was. Running the game on the lowest settings, with lumen disabled, and the window at 1024x768 with nothing else running on my computer doesn't even properly load the repeating texture of the showroom floor.
I've looked a while back into these comments and I'm a little sad that people asking for fixes get ignored by most people and get "quick fix" answers that don't work for everybody by the few who do answer them. I've tried many of these fixes people say worked for them and nothing has worked for me. It seems that the texture "bug" or whatever it is just has too many factors of causing it for anyone to come up with all of the possible answers to fix it. In the end this "bug" that the UE5 update caused just ends up ruining the game which has carried itself based on it's graphics for many people, and many people just quit. I will definitely keep the last UE4 build on my computer, but I'm just super disappointed that I won't be able to run an update of this game again.
Edit: After a bit I found out it's just because UE5 is incompatible on many graphics cards people run today. So essentially the Devs abandoned the UE4 and a huge chunk of the laypeople playerbase for better graphics. Now that I'm a bit more informed, all I can say is that I'm just simply disappointed that they stopped updating UE4. I know that this very long process for building a game would take way longer juggling two different engines, but in the pursuit of this better engine they just left a whole chunk of people in the dust. I guess I'll stay in October 2022, then since I'm in no position to get a better graphics card and I guess I'll just not have to look forward to any more updates to this game for now.
