Issues fixed

Graphical artifacts/glitches

This issue only appears with AMD Radeon cards, updating to the latest driver might fix it.[1]

Game runs too fast

Game is designed to run with 60Hz monitor running 60 FPS with vsync. With higher refresh rates this means game will run faster.
Sometimes simply playing with fullscreen mode fixes the issue.[2]
Either cap frame rate to 60 FPS externally or use games internal capper.
Instructions

FPS issues/slow gameplay

  • Using the "Fixed" frame rate method will activate frame skips which will allow the game to run at regular speed. Online play is always rendered using the Fixed frame rate method.[2]
  • Setting backgrounds to "Static" will drastically reduce processing, thus increasing FPS.[2]
  • Try running the game in windowed mode.[2]
Instructions

Game crash after intro logos

Official Microsoft Windows Media Player codecs are required to run the videos in KOFXIIISE.

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>/222940/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (222940) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
