Issues and Fixes

Cloth Simulation

Cloth simulation is not active by default, leading to some visual bugs. To activate cloth simulation:

1. Go to the following location:
   • Vista and newer: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Aspyr\Star Wars The Force Unleashed
   • Windows XP: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Aspyr\Star Wars The Force Unleashed
2. Open Config.xml with Notepad.
3. Change <s id="ClothLevel">0</s> to <s id="ClothLevel">1</s>
4. Save your changes. The game now runs with cloth physics activated.
