Issues fixed
"PhysX SDK not initialized. PhysX System Software will be installed"
Install PhysX[citation needed]
|
- Uninstall Current Nvidia PhysX Installation.
- Run Mafia II through Steam and let it install old PhysX distributable that comes with download.
- Game should be playable or at least the above mentioned error shouldn't cause it to crash at startup.
Notes
- You can install the latest PhysX SDK after following the above steps and still be able to play Mafia II
|
Screen flickering ATI/AMD
- Users with ATI/AMD cards may experience screen flickering while playing the game. Fixing this could highlight screen-tearing.
DLL addition[citation needed]
|
- Download
Mafia II ATI Fix.rar from the first link here.
- Extract using 7-Zip or similar.
- Place
atiumdag.dll in <path-to-game>\pc
- The screen flickering is now gone, turn on V-sync if necessary
|
Joe's apartment door won't open in chapter 11
- After Joe finishes his phone call, he starts walking into the door. There is no way to open the door and leave the apartment.
Enter through the front door[8]
|
Restart the mission and enter the apartment building using the front door. This bug only occurs when using the back door near the garage.
|
Infinite loading screen in chapter 14
- An infinite loading screen may occur in chapter 14 after the cutscene where the player character pays back Bruno if the player raised money by holding up stores.
Restart the game[9]
|
- Quit to desktop and start the game again.
- Choose to continue the story and drive from El Greco to Bruno again.
- Skip the cutscene and the next chapter should start.
|
Restart chapter[10]
|
Notes:
- If this fix and restarting the game doesn't work, chapter 14 must be restarted from the main menu and raise money by dropping off cars to Bruski.
|
Game stuck in slow motion while being pursued by the police
- Playing at over ⁓100 FPS results in a bug where the game is permanently put in slow motion when police become hostile.
Enable vsync in the options game and set monitor to 60hz[citation needed]
