Import your friends from Steam

Linking your Uplay account to your Steam accounts now means you can import all of your friends from Steam who have done the same.

You can now clearly see if your Uplay account is linked to your Steam account under the “Account Linking” section of the setting menu. If your accounts are not linked you will be able to select if you are asked to do so the next time you launch a game from Steam.

Layout customization on games library

Following the feedback from our last update we have added the ability to resize game tiles in your game library and have the view saved between sessions. A big thanks to those of you who made sure we heard about this so early, including Rohith_Kumar_Sp, PBR_FreeDoo and JezzC.

Updated Install process for physical products

All future Ubisoft game releases purchased on disc will now include an improved installation flow.

New Active Download menu

It’s easier than ever to see the status of your downloads with the new downloads menu which can be found by clicking the arrow icon to the top right hand corner. (Only visible while a download is active)

Once per day after you have finished playing a game you will receive a small Spotlight notification showing you the latest news, sales or promotions.

Auto patching

Whenever there is a game update available for a recently played game, the Uplay PC client will automatically start to download the patch. If there are already downloads in progress, it will be added to the download queue. Auto patching is functional on games played within the last 2 months. If the game has not been launched for a longer period of time, the game will patch once it is started. The functionality can be enabled/disabled for all games under the Uplay PC clients “Settings” tab, or per game via “Game Properties”.

Friends status

In online mode you now have the option to show and change your status for your friends in the Uplay PC client.

New Social Notifications have been added that will inform you of several different events including:

These can be enabled and disabled in the options menu with individual options for each.

Client Beta Opt-In

The Client Beta Opt-In will allow you to try out the latest builds of Uplay containing work-in-progress features which you can help us build and polish by providing feedback. This will also help us track down any bugs and issues before the final release.

Improvements

Speed improvements in the client

With these optimisations some users should expect to see a slight improvement in the speed of the Uplay client.

Replaced Uplay proxy settings with Windows proxy settings

Instead of specifying the proxy settings in the Uplay client, Uplay will now utilize the proxy settings that windows is currently using. A button has been included which will open the Windows proxy stettings.

Known Issues in this release

Facebook account linking temporarily removed

We have temporarily removed the Facebook button from the client while we finalize work on a Facebook API update.

No VoIP In desktop chat windows

Currently there is an issue that is preventing VoIP from working with the new individual chat windows. We’ll be resolving this in a future update. For the time being using VoiP in-game via the overlay still works fine.

The download manager can be accessed at any time by clicking on the “Downloads” button in the top right corner of the client.

Install Games from Folder

Already downloaded a game but you’ve re-installed your operating system or perhaps you’ve uninstalled Uplay? With this new feature you can skip re-downloading your game and instead detect your existing game files.

To do that simply select the folder where the game is located during the regular download process and the Uplay client will automatically detect and verify your game files.

Locate Moved Games

If you ever move an installed game’s folder on your computer without uninstalling the game, you can now hit the “Play” button again in the Uplay Client and you’ll be prompted to re-locate it to continue playing.

FPS Counter Overlay

Check out what kind of frame rate you’re getting with the new FPS counter which can be enabled/disabled under the “Settings” tab in the in-game Uplay Overlay.

As an addition to our existing VoiP features we’ve added a new visual notification that you can see in game any time a party member presses their push-to-talk key.
