Issues fixed
Game fails to launch if installed on a Storage Spaces drive
- The game will fail to launch if installed on a Storage Spaces drive. This will either cause the
ACOdyssey.exe
process to get stuck on the splash screen or in the background. - Storage Spaces is Microsoft's new software-based RAID solution for Windows 10, allowing users to create and make use of virtual disk drive(s) that spans across multiple physical drives in a desired RAID configuration.
Move the installation folder to a regular non-Storage Spaces drive[2] |

|
Stuttering issues on Windows 10 v1703 or newer
- On some systems running Windows 10 version 1703 or newer, the game can experience constant stutters even when the in-game metrics report a stable framerate.
- Check also resources management tune-up by Special K below.
Configure a task for automatic periodic clearing of the standby memory[3] |
---|
|
Disable "Control Flow Guard" in Windows Defender[4] |
---|
Use this instruction and choose executable. Don't turn off CFG globally - it's a major security breach.
|
Use InSpectre |

|
Very low FPS on SLI configurations
Instruction[6] |
---|
If you've done both of the above and still have 5-7 FPS make sure to disable these overlays (in this order, depending on what you have installed):
If you still need a boost in performance, set process priority to High in the task manager. |
