Issues fixed
Mouse sensitivity tied to frame rate
- Mouse sensitivity will be reduced the higher the frame rate gets.
Use Cheat Engine[citation needed]
|
- Download and run Cheat Engine
- Start the game, get to a playable area and then go to "Options", "Controls" and set "X Axis Sensitivity" and "Y Axis Sensitivity" to any value, e.g. 10. Go back to the previous menu.
- Run Cheat Engine and search for 10.000000 as a float.
- Go back to the game and set both sensitivity values to something else, e.g. 1. Go back to the previous menu.
- Search for 1.000000 next.
- Continue the above process until only two values are left.
- Set both of them to any desired value e.g. 30.
- Start playing the game to a point where it automatically saves its progress. If this step is skipped, the entire process will have to be repeated with the next launch for changes to take effect.
- Do not open the "Controls" menu again as it will revert the sensitivity values to one of the predefined ones.
- The sensitivity values are shared between the mouse, arrow keys and the right analog stick of a controller; however, the latter two are not affected by changing the frame rate. Increasing mouse sensitivity could, in turn, make them overly sensitive.
|
Crash after 15 minutes on Windows 10
- May be caused by a weird interaction between one version of XAudio2_7.dll and the on-screen keyboard service.
Check if this is indeed the cause of the crash with Windows error log[citation needed]
|
- Open the Start menu, type
msinfo32 , and press ↵ Enter.
- In
Software Environment\Windows Error Reporting look for entries with ACU.exe and check that the faulty module is XAudio2_7.dll .
|
Stop TabTip.exe[citation needed]
|
- Stop the TabTip.exe process, also referred to as Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Helper, before launching the game.
Notes
- To simplify this process, create a batch command to run the game.
taskkill /f /im "tabtip.exe"
cd /d "{{P|game}}\Assassin's Creed Unity"
start ACU.exe
- Use your actual installation folder and save as a .cmd. Launch it as an administrator.
- To simplify this process, create a shortcut to the .cmd and choose Run as an administrator in the shortcut's advanced options.
|
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
ACU.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[6]
|
- Copy the <path-to-game> folder over to a new appropriate location on a non-Storage Spaces drive.
- When the game folder have been copied over completely, open Uplay and select the game.
- Click on Properties and then on Uninstall to remove the existing game install folder.
- After the uninstall have been completed, click on Locate installed game below the Download button.
- Browse to and select the new <path-to-game> folder, then click on OK.
- The game will be playable again after Uplay have verified that all game files are present.
|
Game changes resolution to lowest compatible (ex: 320x200)
Edit configuration file[citation needed]
|
- Open
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Assassin's Creed Unity\ACU.ini .
- Edit these lines and set the resolution as preferred:
DisplayWidth=XXXXX
DisplayHeight=XXXXX
- Save the file and change the file to read-only.
|
Game won't work with DS4 v2 Controller
- The game has native support for DS4 controllers on PC with it loading the PlayStation button prompts in-game, but only on connecting the DualShock 4 version 1 model. On connecting a version 2 controller, the game will load the Xbox button prompts and not work correctly.
Follow this guide on Steam.
|
- For the Uplay version of the game, do not follow the first step of disabling the Steam Input.
|
Issues unresolved
Massive pop-in and poor LOD quality, even on highest available graphics settings
- Assassin's Creed Unity is plagued by very noticeable pop-in and poor level of detail at all times. As this appears to be hardcoded, currently and likely forever unfixable.[7]

Reset progress for a new game
- Unity does not inherently support multiple save files. This fix allows you to backup a current save file and start over with a new one.
Backup save[8]
|
- Go to UPlay's Settings > General and untick
Enable Cloud Save Synchronization for supported games to disable cloud saves.
- Navigate to save game data location and make a backup of the folder then delete it.
- Start the game and play until it saves once.
- Re-enable Cloud Saves and allow the local save file to overwrite the online one. Repeat the process above to restore original save file.
