Issues fixed
Random Stop Working Error
- No proper fix known yet.
Instructions |
---|
Shogun 2 not starting
- If the game doesn't start, try deleting
preferences.script.txt
:
Instructions |
---|
Mouse Cursor Unrestricted
- The game does not restrict the mouse cursor, meaning that on multi-monitor configurations instead of moving the camera, the mouse will go onto the other screen, effectively crippling the ability to effectively move the camera in that direction.
Instructions |
---|
Extreme Loading Time
- Shogun 2 suffers from rather ridiculous loading times (the first loading splash screen can take over 5 minutes to load. However, These can be partly shorted by switching from DirectX 11 to DirectX9.
- This will restrict the game to use Shader Model 3 and MLAA among other things.
Freezing on 32-bit systems (Windows)
- The game freezes because Windows cannot allocate enough memory on x86 systems.

. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (34330) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
