Issues unresolved
Remap key bug
- Mouse button binding causes problems.[3]
Xbox One S controller Bluetooth stutter bug
- The Xbox One S Controller, when connected via Bluetooth, causes the game to severely stutter, leaving the game hardly playable.[4] A workaround is to use the controller in wired mode. For the Steam version, setting Steam Input to "Forced On" in game properties may resolve the issue.
Issues fixed
Crash after 10-15 minutes on Windows 10
- Caused by a weird interaction between one version of XAudio2_7.dll and the on-screen keyboard service.
Check whether this is the cause with Windows Error Reporting[citation needed] |
---|
|
Stop the TabTip.exe process, also referred to as Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Helper, before launching the game[citation needed] |
---|
More simply, just create a batch command to run the game[citation needed] |
---|
taskkill /f /im "tabtip.exe" start /d "<path-to-game>" Reckoning.exe
|
Black screen in demo with AMD GPU
- The demo shows nothing but a black screen with AMD GPUs. This issue is not present in the final game.
Disable post-processing in the settings[citation needed] |
---|
Alternate demo fix[citation needed] |
---|
|
Locked out of Fast Travel
The following will work to re-enable fast-travel in a savegame, regardless of the reason that caused it[5] |
---|
|
Crash on startup
Run the game as administrator |
