I am here to fix stuff and add missing stuff. Mostly to obscure games.

Subpages

Stuff to keep in mind

Mass Effect

Renaming PhysXCore.dll and PhysXLoader.dll makes the game load the generic ones
Default binds for 1-9 don't work on non-US keyboards. Need to bind them manually.
Default AA bit causes this issue.[1] Use this one 0x080000C1 instead.

Mass Effect 2

Forcing AA causes geometry flicker. Use injectSMAA instead.

Medal of Honor: Airborne

Requires PhysX Legacy Software. Bundled redist screws up regular PhysX.

Need for Speed: Carbon

Settings are saved in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed Carbon\

Need for Speed: Most Wanted

Settings are saved in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\EA Games\Need for Speed Most Wanted\

Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed

If using Steam Overlay the game will always crash when going back to the main menu

Need for Speed: ProStreet

Settings are saved in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed ProStreet\

Need for Speed: Undercover

Settings are saved in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\EA Games\Need For Speed Undercover\

Star Wars: Rebel Assault

Set 10 FPS in launcher and sensitivity=70 in dosbox_rebel.conf to be remotely playable

Test Drive Unlimited 2

Renaming UL_steam_api.dll to steam_api.dll makes achievements work with custom launchers

Typer Shark!

Settings are saved in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\PopCap\TyperShark\
