Key points

Features 60 FPS support and some improved textures over previous versions. An unofficial texture project is also being developed to completely revise them.
The game speed is bound to frame rate and has no frame skipping. With many animations being unoptimized for 1080p/60 FPS, they can sometimes cause the game to run at half its normal speed.
Mouse aiming is difficult with default settings, possibly to the extent of being unplayable. It may be improved after changing the aim mode to "modern" in settings. A controller is highly recommended.
Positional audio is hit-or-miss; many sound effects are mono.

Issues fixed

Random lag

If you're playing the game and it suddenly lags, load the map and exit.

Can't pass QTE

For some QTEs, such as when Leon is hanging on a ledge in Chapter 4, mashing the button as fast as you can still doesn't pass the QTE and he falls off anyway. This is because of botched 60 FPS support, requiring QTEs to be mashed faster. Try changing it to 30FPS, or use Cheat Engine, attach the process, Speed Hack it to 0.5, thus giving you more time to press the button. After the QTE, simply exit Cheat Engine and continue the game. Another tip is to mash the button even before the prompt appears.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/254700/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (254700) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
