Issues fixed
Low frame rate
- Frame rate may drop to around 20-30 FPS after a few minutes of play. This is especially common with systems utilizing Logitech devices.
Missing sound effects in Steam version
- In particular, the train sounds at the end of chapter four are missing.[3] The footage from "The Dark" game prototype is also corrupted.[4]
Keyboard settings reset to unassigned
- Some settings can't be saved unless the game is launched as administrator.
Soft shadows don't work with in-game FSAA
- This is due to the features of the engine and the artificial limitation of the simultaneous use of anti-aliasing with soft shadows, since they can cause graphic artifacts on the shadows.
Change game's language to English[6]
|
Use compability mode with older version of Windows[citation needed]
|
If you use DPI scaling in Windows settings, change this option and use custom DPI setting[citation needed]
|
Slow loading level and aero disabling
- Occurs only on Windows Vista and Windows 7 because of the special graphic stack WDDM.
Install game only on Windows XP, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10[citation needed]
|
- Using Windows 8.1 or 10 significantly reduces the launch time of the level; perhaps this is due to improvements in the WDDM graphics stack.[7]
