Issues unresolved[edit]
Low performance with certain AMD configurations[edit]
In certain AMD CPU + GPU configurations performance will be extremely low when engaged in combat.
Issues fixed[edit]
Controller inputs are illogical or not working correctly[edit]
- XInput controllers, especially Xbox One controllers, will have their button mappings in awkward places.
| Disable the appropriate 'HID-compliant game controller' under 'Human Interface Devices' in Device Manager |
|---|
Launch the game directly through BinaryDomain.exe instead of the Steam Client and only connect the controller after launching the game
|
|---|
| Use a modified version of Dark_Buf0n's controller configuration[2] |
|---|
|
Incorrect Input Display Icons[edit]
Normally the game shows you the Xbox 360 buttons for the buttons you have to press. You can change this in the configuration utility of the game under the Input configuration tab.
"Graphics device is invalid, please run the configuration tool" error on launch[edit]
| Reapply settings[3] |
|---|
|
"Configuration file not found" error on launch[edit]
| Run as administrator with audio input disabled[4] |
|---|
|
Sudden Game Over near the objective's goal during Chapter 2's sewer rescue Mission even when well within the time limit[edit]
This can always happen on the first attempt of any playthrough, any subsequent attempt plays out fine. Can be pre-emptively avoided by manually reloading the checkpoint right after you first get to this part.
