Issues fixed
Mouse sensitivity issues
- The game applies different sensitivities for vertical and horizontal movement. It also has sensitivity settings that are too high for some players who prefer slower movement.
Use raw mouse input fix[7] |
---|
Install Metro Mouse Fix. |
Download RInput (for Epic Store version) |
---|
|
Edit User.cfg[8][9][10][11][12] |
---|
Change the following:
|
Framerate limited to 60fps with VSync enabled
- In-game Vsync forces the refresh rate to 60 Hz in fullscreen mode.
Force Vsync in driver[citation needed] |
---|
|
Game crashing
Crashing when loading a save on certain Nvidia cards[citation needed] |
---|
Note: This bug and bug fix may not be limited to Nvidia cards. If you have an AMD chipset and are experiencing this bug, try the fix anyway.
|
Epic Games Store version fix[13] |
---|
Micro Stuttering
- If the game periodically skips a frame or two throughout gameplay, this may be fixed by un-parking CPU threads.
Un-park CPU threads[14] |
---|
|
Diary notes not being saved
Make sure user.cfg is not set as read only[citation needed]
|
---|
Resolution Issues
- Some reports indicate problems setting native resolutions or the game resetting a chosen resolution to a lower one.[15]
- Possibly caused by multiple monitors or playing the game on a television with a lower resolution.
Unplug any extra monitors[16] |
---|
Set multi-monitor display mode in Windows to Computer Only
|
---|
No sound under Linux
- Likely caused by use of PulseAudio.
Add extra launch options[citation needed] |
---|
|
- If this option enables sound but causes sound suttering or performance drops, continue with the following fix.
Fix performance issues after adding extra launch options[citation needed] |
---|
1. Create a 2 Enter the following into your pcm.!default { type hw card 0 device 0 } ctl.!default { type hw card 0 device 0 } 3. The digits for So for an output like this: $ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 You would use 4. Save the changes. |
- Some audio drivers don't play well with Pulseaudio's Glitch-free Feature, e.g. Creative X-Fi cards. To switch from newer schedule to older interrupt-based audio processing:
Disable Pulseaudio Glitch-free[citation needed] |
