Issues fixed

Heavy stutters without a controller

The game will stutter every few seconds if a controller cannot be found. Possible solutions:

  • physically plug any controller into your computer
  • simulate a "fake" virtual XInput controller using Key2Joy or Special K

Note: Special K does not work with Atelier Sync Fix.

Note 2: The game disables MnK input once it detects a controller. vJoy is not recommended as it is not PlugNPlay. Enabling and disabling vJoy will permanently lock the game to controller input.
