===Switching Languages===
 
Dust detects languages under Windows based on the system language and under OS X apparently by checking the input language (not the OS language itself). The only way languages can be switched without additional tools is to English. To do so one needs to remove the currently selected language from the application. For OS X this is in ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Dust An Elysian Tail/DustAET.app/Contents/MacOS/ – deleting the current language's folder will force Dust to use English instead.
 
Windows Users also have the option of using a [http://steamcommunity.com/app/236090/discussions/0/864969320369154123/#c864970485966613775 user written patch] that appears to allow more control over language settings.
 
===Heavy stuttering===
 
{{ii}} This shouldn't be an issue anymore since Patch 1.02, but in case the game still stutters, lowering the video settings may fix the problem.

# Lower the game's resolution. This may fix most of the stuttering. If there are still problems, or if a resolution change is not wanted, customize the following options as preferred :
 
:* Set "Portrait Quality" to "Normal"
 
:* Turn on or off "Variable Refresh"
 
:* Turn off "Depth of Field"
 
:* Turn off "Post Processing"
 
:* Turn off "Weather Effects"
