Issues fixed
Crashes when selecting resolutions above 1280x960
- When you select a resolution above 1280x960 and relaunch the game, the game crashes during the loading screen before the game reaches the title screen.
Use Patched Executable
|
Download this patched executable and replace the original shrek.exe executable in <path-to-game> to fix the crashing issue. Editing the config.ini and setting the resolution manually may be necessary to change the resolution afterwards.
|
Framerate is locked at 32 FPS
The game may lock itself to 32 FPS on modern operating systems due to broken 3D audio compatibility.
