The PC port of Remedy’s survival horror Alan Wake is due a patch later this week, the developer has announced.
As detailed on the game’s official forums, the update will fix various bugs.
Here’s the full changelog:
- Fix problems of game not moving forward / triggering properly after videos. (Workaround: avoid pressing space or enter when those videos trigger, restarting the chapter helps)
- Nvidia tree flicker – if we manage to catch it. We are doing our best.
- Unofficial support for 640×480 and 800×600 resolution through command line
- Fix that blur occasionally gets re-enabled even if -noblur specified
- Add “rigidcamera” command line option for those who are sensitive to our current mouse/camera controls
- Add possibility to bind mouse buttons 4 and 5
- Fix that the Developer Video Commentary volume is more sensible
- Fix that Localized cinematic audio volume is not too loud and adjustable
- Fix that going to menus during a cine skips the cinematic when you return to game
- Fix that controller ruble works even without weird workarounds of enabling it with keyboard
- Prevent binding controller keys and thus preventing weird problems
- Real Traditional Chinese translation for added PC strings. Apologies for the current Simplified Chinese in menus
- Better CPU thread assignment for 3-Core AMD machines (smoother gameplay)
A second patch will follow next week, including the following changes:
- Fix crashes when using alt-tab during loading
- Solve “File IO Failure” issue when unable to write to My Documents
- Somehow offer Latin-American Localizations through Steam
- Hopefully add a free camera for those who want to explore the world
- We’ll try to get SLI support in but can’t promise that yet…
- Continue sorting out other problems users have been having
Finally, Remedy mentioned a number of other tweaks are also planned but it “hasn’t been evaluated how much work these are, and we continue to prioritise based on feedback.” These issues include:
- Solve Cursor Key / Numpad assignment issues
- Remember camera side preference (tab key)
- Improve Stereoscopic 3D
- Longer grass draw distance option
- “Low Performance Mode” improvements
