Key points
- Poor PC port[1][2][3][4]
- Frame rate is capped at 30 FPS but this can be removed with Widescreen Fixer. Removing the cap works fine at 60 FPS but for higher frame rates it may cause some physics and driving problems.[5]

L.A. Noire Save Game Manager
L.A. Noire Save Game Manager is a utility developed by ReanimationXP. It's a program which allows the manual creation of save points during a mission. This allows one to create save games during a mission, and to reload part-way through a mission. This allows one to attempt different dialogue options without restarting the mission completely.[8]

Issues fixed
Freezing Title Screen
L.A. Noire for Windows is known to freeze at the title screen during the synchronization process, or immediately after, when the camera moves away from the L.A. Noire neon sign. There are several possible reasons for this. Some of the most common are:
- Anti-Virus Related Issues where game files are misrecognized as malware.[9]
- .NET Framework 3.5 or C++ runtime libraries are not properly installed or configured.[10]
- Firewall prevents game from making a connection to the internet.
- Compatibility options are set incorrectly on Steam.

Game Freezes on 64-bit Windows 7
On 64-bit Windows 7, the game might freeze as soon as the synchronization (refresh) symbol shows up, which appears right after the Team Bondi logo. This is due to the game being incompatible with the current version of the .NET Framework 3.5 installed into your system. This is also the main reason why the associated .NET Framework installer provided with the game won't install.

Black border around game
This is caused by the display's overscan handling. See the Overscan entry for solutions, the linked article lists solutions for AMD, Intel and Nvidia chipsets.
USB Controller Problems
With certain controllers connected to the PC (e.g. Wheel or Flight pedals) a bug can occur whereby even with controller set to disabled in the game menus the game still tries to accept controller input for some game controls and ignores keyboard input. Most notably this occurs when trying to drive cars. You will be unable to drive forward or reverse as long as the problem controller is plugged in to the personal computer.

Issues unresolved
Corrupt License File
When starting the game, a social club "Corrupt License File" error message is displayed and the game refuses to start. I have found a fix that might work, after many hours of research I found out that the only reason my game has been doing this is because L.A Noire was not installed in program files in local disk C with Rockstar Games Social Club. So if your files are saved away from local disk C Try moving them there and try it out.
GPU compatibility
Following graphics cards are known to have problems with L.A. Noire:
- Any graphics card with less than 256 MB per GPU
- ATI Radeon HD 5570 1024 MB
- ATI Radeon HD 3870 512 MB AGP Pro
- Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT 512 MB AGP Pro
Unable to install game to FAT32 partition
Installation of the game may not work on partitions formatted using FAT32. This problem occurs in Steam when the progress of the download indefinitely "suspends" around the 90% point. Recommended course of action is to relocate your installation to an NTFS partition.
Launch parameters
You can supply launch parameters to L.A. Noire for example in a situation were you're running into compatibility problems, or if you're having serious performance issues. These may help you debug the issue, and thus resolve the problem.
To input launch parameters you have to open the launcher of the game, access the Options menu. There you can write the parameters into the Command Line field of the launcher. You might have to start the game manually using LANLauncher.exe
located inside the installation folder to see the launcher. It's noteworthy that Steam always starts the game using LANLauncher.exe
.
Command | Notes |
---|---|
-windowed | Run game in a window. |
-ignorefocus | Don't pause the game if you Alt-Tab or click out of its window. |
-mousefree | Allow mouse outside the game window. (Requires windowed mode). |
-str | Enable single threaded renderer, which may improve performance or compatibility on some systems. |
-npd | Disable the 'D3D_PUREDEVICE' flag from device creation. May help if you have graphics compatibility issues. |
