Issues fixed

Game will not launch in Steam

Fix controller problems[citation needed]
  1. If you aren't using a controller in-game simply unplug it, otherwise read on.
  2. Install the DirectX End-User Runtimes.
  3. If problems persist, download dinput8.dll and extract it into <path-to-game>.

Audio skips in cutscenes

Set compatibility to Win98/ME[citation needed]
  1. Find the folder that contains the game's executable, Hector101.exe, right click the file and choose Properties > Compatibility and choose Windows 98/ME from the drop down box.
