Gamepads or joysticks make player character spin

There is currently no known fix for this issue.[2]

Low framerate

General

Reduce quality of or disable AA[3]
Change DOF quality from "Bokeh" to "Gauss"[3]
Modify Nvidia Control Panel settings[4]
  1. Open the Nvidia Control Panel.
  2. Under 3D Settings, select Manage 3D settings.
  3. Ensure the Global Settings tab is selected.
  4. Set the following settings as follows:
    1. Ambient Occlusion to Off
    2. Anisotropic Filtering to Application-controlled
    3. Antialiasing - FXAA to OFF
    4. Antialiasing - Mode to Application-controlled
    5. Antialiasing - Transparency to Off
    6. Check all checkboxes from the CUDA - GPUs dropdown.
    7. Maximum pre-rendered frames to Use the 3D application setting
    8. Power management mode to Adaptive
    9. Shader Cache to On
    10. Texture filtering - Anisotropic sample optimization to Off
    11. Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias to Allow
    12. Texture filtering - Quality to Quality
    13. Texture filtering - Trilinear optimization to Off
    14. Threaded optimization to On
    15. Triple buffering to On
    16. Vertical sync to Use the 3D application setting
    17. Virtual Reality pre-rendered frames to 1
  5. Press the Apply button which has just appeared.

Notes

This fix is only for Nvidia GeForce GPUs.
Creating a profile for Angels Fall First and applying the fix's settings to that profile will also work.

Windows 10

Windows 10 occasionally mis-configures GPUs (i.e. configures a discrete GPU as an integrated+dedicated GPU setup), especially when upgrading from an earlier Windows version.
Ensure GPU drivers are up-to-date[3]
Reinstall GPU drivers[3]

Issues fixed

Game crashes when using DirectX 11

Reduce all setting to lowest values[citation needed]
  1. Start the game without the -DX11 command line argument.
  2. Turn off and set all graphics options to their lowest levels.
  3. Apply the changes, then quit the game.
  4. Re-add the -DX11 command line argument.

Notes

You can set all graphics options back to the way they were once the fix is applied.
