Issues fixed
Game fails to start
- Error: "The game cannot be launched. The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
Run as administrator[citation needed] |
---|
Mark |
Cutscenes are de-synchronised
- Running the game at 60FPS or above causes cutscenes to speed up while audio lags behind.
Cap the framerate to any number under 60[9] |
---|
|
Falling off Ropes during Wallruns in certain sections of the game
- This usually happens in the Garden level and to users of High Framerate and Variable Sync Displays that turn off V-Sync in-game.
Turn on V-Sync in-game to get through this part[10] |
---|
|
Unable to use Sand Powers besides Rewind/Recall when playing with a Controller
- This is a limitation of XInput Controllers when playing older DirectInput games. LT and RT are bound to the Z-Axis and do not register when held simultaneously.
If using a Controller that supports multiple modes, switch it from XInput to DirectInput then rebind all Gamepad buttons in game options.[11] |
---|
- For XInput Controllers:
Add an XInput to DirectInput translation layer and configure triggers as buttons[12] |
