Issues fixed
Improve performance on old hardware
Disable certain effects on Windows and Linux[2]
|
- Navigate to the
resources directory in the installation folder.
- Create a file titled
config.ini with the following content:
[Options]
EnableColorCorrection=0
EnableCaustics=0
EnableShockwave=0
EnableLighting=0
EnableFilter=0
EnablePixelation=0
EnableBloom=0
- This fix may also amend broken shaders.
- To disable only certain effects, enter
0 or 1 for some options.
- It is recommended to leave
EnableLighting on in order to preserve the game's atmosphere.
|
Disable certain effects on Mac[3]
|
- Right-click on the App bundle
- Select "View Package Contents"
- Go into
Contents/Resources/resources
- Create the same
config.ini as listed above.
|
Crash on game start
Keyboard getting stuck sometimes
- Some wireless keyboards might have the same problem, as there is a limited number of combinations of keypresses these keyboards can transmit. Try altering the controls until the issue is resolved.
- Seems to occur mostly with the Logitech G110 keyboard, but other models might be affected as well.
Sound effects not working
- Usually, the music may work but sound effects are either missing or only transmitting from one side of a pair of Stereo speakers.
Option #1 - Switching settings[citation needed]
|
- Try different settings for your speakers, e.g. switch from Surround to Stereo mode or vice versa.
|
Option #2 - Switching versions of OpenAL libraries[citation needed]
|
- Install the OpenAL libraries from http://www.openal.org/creative-installers/oalinst.zip
- Go to the game folder by right-clicking on
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth , then selecting Properties , Local Files , Browse Local Files...
- Delete or rename
OpenAL32.dll .
|
Speed issues, unstable frame rate
- Some players with strong systems report the game running too fast or too slow.
Audio noise for hardware connected via USB
- Some users are experiencing crackling or scrambled audio with audio devices connected via USB.
Disable gamepad hotplugging[citation needed]
|
- Gamepad hotplugging may be interfering with the USB devices.
- Go to the configuration file(s) and save game data location.
- Open
options.ini .
- Change
ControllerHotplug=1 to ControllerHotplug=0 .
- Alternatively, one can also avoid connecting audio hardware (speakers, headphones, headsets, microphones) via USB if the option is available.
