===Game uses incorrect refresh rate=== {{--}} The game may default to the lowest supported refresh rate of the monitor. {{Fixbox|description=Override refresh rate with Special K|ref=<ref>{{Refcheck|user=Keith|date=|comment=}}</ref>|fix= # Download the latest release of [https://discourse.differentk.fyi Special K]. # Copy <code>SpecialKXX.dll</code> to the game folder, and rename it to <code>XX.dll</code>. # Run the game once, and close it to allow the configuration file of Special K to be created. # Open <code>XX.ini</code>, and change <code>RefreshRate=-1.0</code> to desired hertz (e.g. <code>RefreshRate=120</code>). }} {{Fixbox|description=Override refresh rate with 3Dmigoto|ref=<ref>{{Refcheck|user=Keith|date=|comment=}}</ref>|fix= # Download the latest release of [https://github.com/bo3b/3Dmigoto/releases 3Dmigoto]. # Open <code>XX</code> and copy the files to <code>{{p|game}}</code>. # Open <code>d3dx.ini</code>. # Change <code>;refresh_rate=60</code> to desired hertz, and remove the semicolon (e.g. <code>refresh_rate=120</code>). # Change <code>hunting=1</code> to <code>;hunting=1</code> by adding a semicolon. }}

Notes
- ↑ Trine 2 and Trine 3 have broken "Automatic" refresh rate, so you have to specify the real one in the launcher.
- ↑ Game doesn't like Special K/3Dmigoto likely due to Denuvo being present in the executable
- ↑ dgVoodoo can be applied to the game, but forcing a resolution/refresh rate through dgVoodoo breaks the game
