Key points
- A controller is recommended.
- Features 60 FPS support and some improved textures over previous versions. An unofficial texture project is also being developed to completely revise them.
- Game speed is bound to frame-rate and has no frame skipping, with some animations not optimized for 60 FPS and can sometimes cause slow down.
- Some players have reported mouse aiming to be problematic, possibly to the extent of being unplayable. See Mouse aiming problems to fix potentially this issue.
- Positional audio is hit-or-miss; many sound effects are mono.[citation needed]

Issues fixed
Random slow downs
- If you're playing the game and it suddenly slows down, load the map and exit.[citation needed]
Mouse aiming problems
- Some players have reported problems using the mouse to aim their weapon. This can potentially be improved by changing the aim mode to "Modern" and adjusting the sensitivity level.
Can't pass QTE
- For some QTEs, such as when Leon is hanging on a ledge in Chapter 4, mashing the button as fast as you can still doesn't pass the QTE and he falls off anyway. This is because of botched 60 FPS support, requiring QTEs to be mashed faster. Try changing it to 30FPS, or use Cheat Engine, attach the process, Speed Hack it to 0.5, thus giving you more time to press the button. After the QTE, simply exit Cheat Engine and continue the game. Another tip is to mash the button even before the prompt appears.
Crashes around 15 minutes of gameplay in Windows 8 or 10
- If the game keeps crashing after 15 minutes (more or less).
Stop Windows Service "Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service".
- Open Task Manager.
- Go to Services.
- Identify "Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service" (TabletInputService).
- Stop the service.
- Launch RE4.
