Issues fixed[edit]

Unable to get up the ramp Chapter 18a[edit]

Change video setting/resolution to 60HZ[citation needed]
  1. Press play Valkyria Chronicles
  2. Choose 'Configure Valkyria Chronicles'
  3. Change resolution to desired resolution with 60HZ

Crash in Chapter 3[edit]

Change video setting to Windowed and switch off Steam Overlay[citation needed]
  1. Press Valkyria Chronicles with the right mouse button on Steam
  2. Choose Properties
  3. Uncheck "Enable Steam Overlay while in-game"
  4. Press play Valkyria Chronicles
  5. Choose 'Configure Valkyria Chronicles'
  6. Change screen mode to Windowed

You may also need to change the launch file to run in Windows 7 Compatibility Mode.[citation needed]

Once you have returned to Book Mode without the crash you can change your settings back to normal.

Game is accepting input from nonexistant device and is infinitely scrolling up on start[edit]

Enter Windows Device Manager and disable devices[citation needed]
  1. Open Device Manager from Windows Start Menu
  2. Expand "Human Interface Devices" list
  3. Find and disable device labeled "HID-compliant vendor-defined device"

When you reopen the game after you have disabled the device, the scrolling should stop and everything should work as normal.

There may be more than one device with that label, but for me it was the first one in the list.
