Issues fixed

Color corruption

Color corruption may occur if a program other than Windows manages the systems color profile (e.g. f.lux) and the game is run in fullscreen.

Workaround for color corruption[citation needed]
Play the game in windowed or borderless fullscreen mode.

Serious stuttering on Linux

WBPlay has issues with Linux 4.9+, causing serious stuttering in Mad Max and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Feral is aware of the problem and looking for a fix.

Workaround for Linux 4.9+[citation needed]
Play the game with Steam in offline mode. This prevents a connection to WBPlay and stops the stuttering.

Stuttering when auto-saving

Every time the game auto-saves (which is very often), the game hiccups. This happens when the save gets written to the Steam save data location.

Workaround for auto-save stuttering[citation needed]
Prevent the game from saving to the Steam save data location. Go into Properties of the 'remote' folder, open the Security tab and deny write access for all groups/user names. Auto-saves will continue to go to your Documents folder.
