Issues unresolved

Periodic stutter (might only happen in modern systems)

Issues fixed

Screen gets distorted/letterboxed

Use only one GPU for the game.

No shadows using AMD cards

Use DXVK.
Some users of AMD graphics cards have a bug where the shadows in the game are not visible, even if they are enabled in the graphics section
A solution tested on some AMD graphics cards is to use DXVK "A Vulkan-based translation layer for Direct3D 9/10/11 which allows running 3D applications on Linux using Wine". Although it is intended for use on linux, it is capable of running on Windows.
  1. From here you can download DXVK from the official repository: Download DXVK
  2. Here is a guide on how to install these libraries in any windows game: How to install DXVK in Windows
Only tested on Windows 11.
Although it corrects the shadows error, it can cause small stutters.
It may not work as it is not officially supported on windows, it will depend on your system and hardware.
