Issues fixed
Mouse aiming deadzone
- By default, the game has a mouse "deadzone" effect that ignores small mouse movements. This can make precision aiming with ranged weapons difficult to impossible. An option to disable this feature has been included with one of the patches.
Under "Mouse & Keyboard Settings", set "Mouse Deadzone" to "off"[citation needed] |

Game fails to launch
The game fails to launch with mirrored screens, disable mirrored screens in display settings.
FPS issues on 8/16 CPU
- The game has FPS issues if you use more than 8 threads[5]
Turn off logical threads (HT/SMT)[6] |
---|
Open task manager and change affinity in the game process. Cores 0, 2, 4, 6 = Physical. Cores 1, 3, 5, 7 = Logical. Uncheck logical threads. For some Xeons it may differ (0, 1, 2, 8, 9, 10 and 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11[7]).

The option to enable HD Textures is absent
- HD Textures option should be present in the Video settings menu between V-Sync and Graphics Quality items when HD Texture Pack DLC is installed. Without it texture quality can be set to Normal or High. If it's present and enabled texture quality becomes Very High.
- The option is absent in Steam version of the game because HD Texture Pack DLC files are stored in the wrong folder.
Move texture files to the proper location[9][10] |
