Issues fixed
Crash after 15 minutes on Windows 10
- May be caused by a weird interaction between one version of XAudio2_7.dll and the on-screen keyboard service.
Check if this is indeed the cause of the crash with Windows error log[citation needed]
|
- Open the Start menu, type
msinfo32 , and press ↵ Enter.
- In
Software Environment\Windows Error Reporting look for entries with ACU.exe and check that the faulty module is XAudio2_7.dll .
|
Stop TabTip.exe[citation needed]
|
- Stop the TabTip.exe process, also referred to as Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Helper, before launching the game.
Notes
- To simplify this process, create a batch command to run the game.
taskkill /f /im "tabtip.exe"
cd /d "{{P|game}}\Assassin's Creed Unity"
start ACU.exe
- Use your actual installation folder and save as a .cmd. Launch it as an administrator.
- To simplify this process, create a shortcut to the .cmd and choose Run as an administrator in the shortcut's advanced options.
|
Game does not launch past initial splash screen
- Game might not launch properly if installed on a drive managed as a Windows Storage Space. Issue appears to be caused by the audio files.
Install game on a drive not managed as a Storage Space[4]
|
Game changes resolution to lowest compatible one (ex: 320 x 200)
Edit configuration file[citation needed]
|
- Open
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Assassin's Creed Unity\ACU.ini .
- Edit these lines and set the resolution you would like to have:
DisplayWidth=XXXXX
DisplayHeight=XXXXX
- Save the file and change the file to read-only.
