Key points
- Poor optimization for AMD-based systems. See ATI/AMD FIX.
- GPU's with more than 2GB VRAM, can't launch the game, since the launcher only detects up to 2GB of VRAM. See Launch game button greyed out in the game Launcher for a solution.

- Originally created for Fallout: New Vegas but should work here.
- Causes the game launcher to crash, so it needs to be applied after the launcher is open and removed afterwards. Could be automated with a batch file.
- Doesn't work on Windows 10 with newest AMD drivers.
Fix Street Level Audio cutting out and crashes
In the Launcher set "City Life Density" to low[citation needed] |

Games keeps defaulting to 800x600 resolution on laptops

Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Games with Steam Cloud support may also store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/212580/
. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (212580) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
