Using the inventory permanently reduces all dialog sound to almost inaudible volume.^[18]

Reload savegame to restore normal audio.

Issues fixed[edit]

Can not start Redeem.exe - api-ms-win-core-libraryloader-l1-2-0.dll wasn't found (Retail)[edit]

This error is caused by the DVD including d3d11.dll Windows 8.1 system library^[19] never meant to be shipped in other OS.

Use fixed redeem applet^[20]

Download this file.
Insert Disc 1 of the game.
Start the downloaded program.

Notes

If there are still problems use the Support Page to request the Steam key.

Blurry and semi-transparent faces[edit]

Due to how it presently works with facial meshes, tessellation can cause character faces to having a strange, "washed out" look to them which makes them look semi-transparent.

Disable tessellation^{[citation needed]}

Notes

Disabling tessellation may be undesirable if you wish to keep certain environments from looking too angular.

Save games requiring DLC stop working if game is moved to / reinstalled on different drive[edit]

Fix can require re-download of several gigabytes (but not whole game).

Go to the game in your Steam library. Uncheck the DLC and wait for it to go greyed out. Check it again so that it will download/install the DLC.^[21]

Game crashes when exiting the shooting range[edit]

Before entering the shooting range itself, empty your inventory, or at least remove the weapons from the inventory.^[22]
