Issues unresolved

Higher real FOV

In missions, the FOV is always higher by 8.4 than set in option menu. This can be seen in a mission when you open the options menu.

Shadows setting greyed out

The developers had planned to update the game with a more detailed shadow solution. However, due to various issues this was never fully implemented, despite the setting being available in the graphics menu.[1]

Issues fixed

Framerate capped at 50 fps

For some users the game does not go above 50 fps. While the reason for this is unknown, a workaround for Nvidia users is to leave the GeForce Experience window open in the background.[2]
Another confirmed solution is to use a hardware accelerated media player like MPC-HC, play and then pause a video file (like those found in <path-to-game>\pc\main\Video\) and keeping the player open before starting the game.[3]

Not in fullscreen after task-switching

Sometimes after using Alt+Tab , the game is stuck in windowed mode.
Reset the settings[3]
  1. Go to options menu and change to windowed.
  2. After changing to windowed, change back to fullscreen.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 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>/288370/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (288370) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
