Issues unresolved
Cutscenes skipped if SRHook is installed
- If you use SRHook to be able to play at >30fps, the game will skip all prerendered cutscenes.[5]
Game crashes when reaching Melchiah gates after loading a game
After doing all the puzzles before Melchiah, if you load the game again and try to reach the gates before the boss battle, it'll crash.
It's recommended to save after defeating Melchiah (you won't need to go back there anyway).
Issues fixed
Raziel runs in circles if a gamepad is connected
Crashes with resolutions larger than 640x480
Crash when the game starts
Gamma calibration not working
Low frame rate on Windows 8
Use windowed mode[citation needed]
|
Set up D3DWindower to run the game in windowed mode.
|
Use DLL fix[citation needed]
|
- Download Windows 8 Fix.
- Extract the DLL to the installation folder.

Audio issues
- On modern computers, audio may have issues such as dialogue skipping at some points. In this case, to solve the issue you have to set the sampling frequency from the control panel of your audio card to a lower level (44.1 kHz should be fine).[citation needed]
