HOME / PC CHEATS & TRAINERS / DISHONORED / MESSAGE BOARD / SAVEGAME LOCATION. Dishonored Discussion. If you use the update for dishonored the new save game. Hey, so I got to the 2nd mission and about in the middle of it I noticed that the game just won't save. When I press load, I see the saves I have already made. There is no date there, instead it has this: month day year - hour:minute:second. I can't seem to save at all and it's a real bummer, anyone has any idea on how can I fix it? FIX IT: DISHONORED CRASHING/FREEZING SOLUTIONS. This guide is simply designed to help fix common issues which arise with some games, we are happy to offer any.

Issues unresolved[edit]
Knife of Dunwall: Crashing during the third act[edit]
The DLC appears to crash a lot for people in the third act, no solution.
Possible solution:

Knife of Dunwall: Low resolution textures on butchers[edit]
The game is using the low detail textures on butchers instead of the high detail textures.
Knife of Dunwall: Missing 2D image files[edit]
Generic placeholder images are replacing some 2D icons and images in-game.[15]
Game crash at startup[edit]
- Some users report that turning Steam Cloud off and on again solves the problem.

Texture Pop-in When Switching Weapons[edit]
Instructions[citation needed]
|
- Please note that unless the high quality texture can be loaded right away by your computer, this can make the texture pop-in even more noticeable, since it only disable the fade that is meant to hide the transition from low to high quality texture.
Controller hotplugging does not work[edit]
Traktor pro 2.6 crack download. Run the game as an administrator, as detailed here.
Game options cannot be saved or loaded when using a controller[edit]
The game forces you to pick either keyboard/mouse or controller when you first open the main menu. Everything works fine with keyboard and mouse; however, with a controller, while the settings can be changed, they will never be saved and the game will reload the default settings every time a save file is loaded.
Run the game executable as an administrator once[citation needed]

After a week-long wait, Bethesda released a beta PC patch for Dishonored 2 yesterday afternoon. It addresses a few of the game's many issues, but is probably not going to be the fix you were hoping for.
Dishonored 2launched in a sorry state on PC, with lots of players (including yours truly) getting uneven performance, wild frame-rate drops, crashes, and weird mouse response, among other problems.
My own issues have left me unwilling to play the game until it works better, though of course that hasn't stopped me from continually noodling with my settings and trying all manner of workarounds and tweaks. I have probably watched that interminable first loading screen fifty times. I'm like Charlie Brown with the football over here.
A fair number of PC gamers are in my boat, and this week has been framed by the wait for a patch. Bethesda promised fixes late last week, saying a patch would 'provide improvements to allow for more consistent framerates on affected systems and provide an update to the mouse code for smoother input.'
Advertisement
A 1.1 beta patch is now available on Steam; you can access it by going to the 'betas' tab in the game's properties menu. A full breakdown of what's in the patch can be found here, along with a link to a hotfixed Nvidia driver that Bethesda says will work best with the update. (In addition to the Dishonored 2 mess, Nvidia managed to release new drivers that fucked up performance on some Pascal GPUs. It's been a really cool week to be a PC gamer.)
Per Bethesda, the 1.1 beta patch addresses:
- Mouse improvements, including a fix for sensitivity being framerate dependent
- Fixes an AMD cloth physics issue, which impacts framerates at various points in the game
- Fixes an issue affecting CPU task priority - the game no longer switches CPU task priority
Advertisement
'Our work on Dishonored 2 continues,' they write. 'Update 1.2 development is underway and will address a broader range of issues including performance and is estimated to be available in the next week.'
I've installed the beta patch and the hotfixed drivers and have spent some time testing the game on my GTX 1080/i7 4Ghz. Mouse input is definitely smoother, and it seems that mouse sensitivity is no longer tied to frame rate. (If you need any indication of how rough this PC port was, look no further than the fact that mouse sensitivity was tied to frame rate.) My frame rate is still uncomfortably jittery, however, and the game still does this weird thing where the performance will wildly fluctuate while my character is standing still. I'll watch the FRAPS counter tick from 45fps to 65, then begin to drop again, despite the fact that I haven't touched my mouse or keyboard.

Dishonored Save Game 100
The game is certainly playable for me, if not smooth or pleasant. If I use Nvidia Inspector to limit the FPS to 61.8, I get a decent 60fps at 1440p in most areas. If I run, turn around quickly, or engage in combat, things get much less fluid. Combat in particular is still a floaty, jittery fiasco. I've also had to turn down down my settings to high or medium and turn off TXAA, which leaves me looking at some pretty fugly aliasing. It's annoying on principle, given that the game's not exactly a graphical show-stopper even on the highest settings.
Improvement is improvement, however, and it's better than nothing. These results are also just what I've experienced: I've seen some people reporting that they're getting noticeably better performance with the patch and new drivers. I've also seen plenty of people who've reported solid performance from this game from the start, so, your mileage will likely vary from mine.

Dishonored Save Game Fixed
I'm hopeful that next week's 1.2 patch improves things more substantially, though I'm skeptical that a PC port with this many problems can be fixed by a single patch or even two. All I know is that I really want to play Dishonored 2. We'll see.
