Bug Fixes

Available since Version 1.15.

This hack can be required by a mod to be enabled.

This is a setting hack that can be enabled on the "Settings" page of the Mods List.

This hack contains a variety of bug fixes for issues in the original game.

NOTE: When this hack is required by a mod, the mods settings for it are prioritised over the ones in the hack's settings.

Settings

Visual

Cursor Position

Fixes an issue where the cursor is positioned incorrectly when using an aspect ratio other than 1:1.

Steering Animations

Fixes an issue preventing steering/swaying animations from playing.

Character Rotations

Fixes issues where character rotations are handled incorrectly when standing on top of movable objects such as platforms or cars.

HUD Coin Depth

Makes the coin on the HUD have depth.

Stuck Brake and Reverse Lights

Fixes some issues where the brake and reverse lights could get stuck on cars.

Crashes

Main Menu Cheat Code Enter Crash

Fixes a crash when entering a cheat code on the main menu.

Unlock All Camera Settings Crash

Fixes a crash related to the Unlock All Cameras cheat and the Settings menu.

Late Focus Freeze

Fixes the game freezing on the license screen if it's not focused soon enough.

Zone Load on Exit

This setting is only available when using the -testing command line argument. Fixes the game crashing if it tries loading a zone on exit.

Car Deleted While Loading CON File

This setting is only available when using the -testing command line argument.

Fixes the game crashing if a car is deleted while its CON file is still loading.

High Coin Count

This setting is only available when using the -testing command line argument.

Fixes the game crashing if you collect more than 9,999,999 coins.

Actors

Restore Wasp Collision

Fixes an issue where Wasp Collision becomes disabled entirely (until the level is reloaded) after destroying some amount of wasp cameras resulting in cars being unable to destroy them.

Vehicles

No Air Vent Audio

Fixes an issue where air vent audio still plays when driving into a vent when inside a car.

Baby Van Tilt/Wonky Driving

Fixes a famous bug that most notably causes the baby van in Level 5 Mission 3 to be tilted and have incorrect physics.

This bug as well as this fix both apply to other cars as well though it appears most prominently on this one so it's named after it.

Phone Booth Camera Pan Active Camera Change

This fixes a bug related to pressing the in-car change camera button during the phonebooth's camera pan. Without this bug fix, doing so will cancel the camera and switch your camera to the mouse controlled camera until the game changes your camera again (such as when getting in a car). If you use mission select to select a mission without getting in a car, you will be able to skip the next mission start camera.

Behaviour

Time Skip

Fixes an issue where grabbing the window header causes halts the Windows event loop for the game until it is released, causing a large delta time that causes physics issues.

This fix gives the game a delta time of 20ms instead of the real delta time in this scenario to prevent these issues.

Requiring This Hack

Version 1.23.6

Added Vehicles > Phone Booth Camera Pan Active Camera Change.

This fixes a bug related to pressing the in-car change camera button during the phonebooth's camera pan. Without this bug fix, doing so will cancel the camera and switch your camera to the mouse controlled camera until the game changes your camera again (such as when getting in a car). If you use mission select to select a mission without getting in a car, you will be able to skip the next mission start camera.

We also added a FixRelativeAnimatedCamCameraChange property to the [Camera] section of BugFixes.ini to opt in to this.

This bug fix exists as a result of research done by aldelaro5.

Version 1.23.4

Made FixZoneLoadOnExitCrash also fix a crash when proceeding to another level.

This bug as well as this fix both apply to other cars as well though it appears most prominently on this one so it's named after it.

We also added a FixUninitialisedArticulatedPhysicsObjectCloneRelativeCentreOfMassAndInertiaMatrixUpdateInterval property to the [Physics] section of BugFixes.ini so mods can opt into this bug fix. The name is very literal.

This bug fix exists as a result of extensive research done by aldelaro5. He also made an in depth video explaining the bug which can be found here if you're interested.

    • Also added a NoAirVentAudio property to the [Vehicles] section of BugFixes.ini.
