Issues fixed

Run the game at screen refresh rate

Fullscreen mode defaults to 60 Hz, even if the screen refresh rate is set higher than that.
Set screen refresh rate[2]
  1. Install Special K by following the Unofficial Special K Guide. Manual local installation may work better.
  2. Start the game once and close it to allow the configuration file of Special K to be created.
  3. Open <path-to-game>\d3d9.ini or %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Mods\SpecialK\Profiles\NinjaBlade.exe\SpecialK.ini depending on the installation method you used.
  4. Change RefreshRate=-1 to RefreshRate=0.
  5. Start the game and enable fullscreen mode if needed.

Poor performance

The game has very poor performance for some users even though GPU usage may be low.[1]
Workaround[citation needed]
  1. Force Vsync with your GPU drivers + cap the frame rate to your desired number externally (see Frame rate capping).
  2. Disable the built in 30 FPS frame rate cap and in game Vsync each time you run the game.
