  2. Copy extracted files to game's location.
  3. Run the game and disable fullscreen mode from in-game's options.

Notes

It is very likely that the game will bug out when trying to set Windowed mode when using DirectX 10 renderer - use DirectX 9 instead.[1]
The game natively starts in fullscreen mode no matter the config option. Simply go to game's options and toggle fullscreen option twice to force the game to Windowed mode.

Issues unresolved

Unable to change weapon selection

Other symptoms include doubling letters when typing commands in the console, as if the game gets confused with something being released with something being pressed.
Workaround[citation needed]
  1. Press middle mouse button (for melee attack) and left mouse button (firing weapon).
  2. Select weapons as normal.

Issues fixed

Game renders blurry/unfocused

Run the game with the +dx10 command line argument.[citation needed]

Script errors appear when launching

May be caused by a faulty desktop shortcut.
Run the game executable file directly[3]
