New patch available in public beta

Hi everyone,



Unfortunately, the last patch was not as thorough as we expected, leaving issues like corrupted textures as well as broken particles and building models unresolved for some of you.

We now have a new version of the game available which we successfully tested on several systems and with different content configurations. However, to make sure that the same applies for all of you, we kindly ask you for your assistance in testing this new patch. To do so, please subscribe to the public beta of the game (instructions are posted below).

We at Kalypso Media would like to apologise for the trouble some of you have had with the game since the latest updates. We hope that this patch fixes these issues and that you can continue to enjoy your dictatorship in Tropico from now on.

Update: The beta patch has been set to the default branch of the game, so for now, you don't have to subscribe to the public beta anymore. Thank you so much for your assistance!
