And only if I Alt+Tab out of the game and back into, the game works. But I can open Windows XBOX-Overlay, which means, that game is not in exclusive full screen.<br /><br />When I'm in the black screen and I press Escape, a Cross fade appears. Which is strange.<br /><br />When I have the chance, I will try it again in Windows 10 or Windows 7. Maybe this is a Windows 11 problem.Martin Prohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477671299240381690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-2646630401519461742022-07-12T15:21:57.034-07:002022-07-12T15:21:57.034-07:00I can't get it to run. 3D doesn't kick in....I can't get it to run. 3D doesn't kick in.<br /><br />As far as I can tell, the game doesn't go into exclusive Full Screen, even though with the fix installed it should. I'm using Windows 11 and 425.31 and Steam Version of the game.<br /><br />I already tried using older version form 4th Feb 2016 (what is suggested above), but it didn't change anything.<br /><br />Has anyone any idea?<br /><br /><br />Oh another note, I deactivate Auto HDR and later HDR completely, because Windows was always showing some annoying toasts, that I assumed could influence the result. But it didn't work, even without deactivated HDR.Martin Prohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477671299240381690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-46423076456600898702018-07-12T21:01:29.106-07:002018-07-12T21:01:29.106-07:00Yep.

And the lack of any hints or story arc make it a bit shallow, no matter how hip the designer thinks he is.<br /><br />However, I keep playing for one reason only- it looks freakin' epic in 3D. Absolutely a wonder to walk through the environments. Thanks for fixing this one, it's a great experience.bo3bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16084511382829706529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-32616543867910276992017-03-14T13:06:06.038-07:002017-03-14T13:06:06.038-07:00Thanks!! .

The water is broken on the latest update. <br /><br />Go to the game in Steam, and in Properties, choose the Betas, and revert to the older- branch. This one works exactly right and looks perfect.<br /><br /><br />While you are there, make a backup of your game directory, so that you are in charge of when updates ruin your experience. When it's working, and you are actively playing, make a copy so you can restore it after lame game updates.bo3bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16084511382829706529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-66934326053548670372017-03-12T11:08:03.626-07:002017-03-12T11:08:03.626-07:00Hi,

Can you open the d3dx.ini and turn on logging (calls=1) - that should create a d3d11_log.txt when you launch the game if 3DMigoto is loading and you should be able to check the log to see if the fix is loading.DarkStarSwordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14402135338628481428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003459283230164005.post-52354662053379922152016-02-17T09:15:34.516-08:002016-02-17T09:15:34.516-08:00Hi, nice work you've done.

But later when I criticised the design of one of the secrets in this game (spoiler: it involves waiting for an hour, in a similar manner to an equally poorly designed secret in his previous game) I found my criticism had been filtered into a "dumb internet comments" sub-forum and that he had blocked me on Twitter.<br /><br />I've removed my Patreon link from this post, because after that experience I can't in good faith accept donations for this particular fix.DarkStarSwordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14402135338628481428noreply@blogger.com
