Issues unresolved
Visible mipmap lines on textures
Due to a bad mipmap implementation, some filtering lines can be seen on textures (especially when wall-crawling on city buildings) that reduce the texture quality after each line.
| Use dgVoodoo 2 to disable mipmaps. |
|---|
|
Game audio disappearing
- Caused by minimizing the game. Use DxWnd to force borderless windowed mode. In this case, switching between windows will not cause sound problems.
The game does not start on Asus ROG Ally
Issues fixed
Glitched skybox on modern hardware
| Disable Fullscreen Effects[5] |
|---|
|
The game has sound but the screen is not displaying any image
| Turn off Dolby Atmos for home theater in "Spatial Sound"[6] |
