Good news for all Tomb Raider PC fans as Nixxes has released the first patch for it. This is the same patch that was introduced later this week, but was almost immediately taken down due to some stability issues. According to its changelog, this patch addresses some stability and startup issues on machines that have both Intel and NVIDIA graphics hardware, and comes with small improvements to TressFX hair rendering. We should note that SSAA with TressFX enabled brings a significant hit (after this patch) and Nixxes is investigating on it. You can find the complete changelog below and as with most Steam games, Tomb Raider will be auto-patched next time you launch the Steam client!
