FAQ on the game Dark Sector (Dark Sector)

if you have questions of both a technical nature and questions about the passage, write here I will help here are the most common and frequently asked questions about the game, I have collected here and there is no need to create double topics if you are looking for something, maybe it is in this topic:

Technical questions on game:

1. The game crashes when changing the resolution, what should I do?
It's okay, you can set the desired resolution in the file:
Dark SectorConfigs, open the ds.cfg file
Graphics.FullScreenSizeX=
Graphics.FullScreenSizeY=

2. Can't hear the sounds of the surrounding world?
If the sound is Creative, try to put 2 speakers instead of 5.1 or set hardware acceleration to basic (Start -> Run -> dxdiag -> Sound (Tab) and remove the hardware acceleration slider there).

3. Problem with game crashes?
In general, I found a solution to the problem. Crashed the game because I remapped the movement buttons: default is wsad, I have -keyup,keydown
Here is a printout of the ds.cfg file:

[Xbox360_Config,/Configs/DS.cfg/Windows_Config ]
—————————————–
Deleted the first 2 lines in the [Windows_KeyBindings, / Types / Input / KeyBindings] section - respectively, the movement keys were reset to default - and it worked
. If anyone else has crashes in the game, try deleting (well, or moving to another folder) all files from config folders. Then the next time the game is loaded, a new ds.cfg will be created and all the lines from the [Windows_Config, / Types / Config] section will need to be added to it, of course, all key settings will be reset to default.
I also noticed that after manually editing the ds.cfg file, the aspect ratio of the monica in the game changes and because of this the image is stretched. In this case, it is necessary to change the resolution in the game to something, and then to the one that is required.

4.Where can I change the graphics settings?? not in the game!
In the game itself, there are only Post-effects and effects, this is the settings, there is nothing else, such a minimalism

5. I can’t start the game Is there a problem with the PhysX driver?
Well, in that case, try to update the physics and put the latest firewood on the video card

6. The game hangs dead during the installation of the game, what should I do?
delete PhysX firewood (just in case, since version 8.04 is desirable for the game)
went into safe mode (run -> msconfig -> boot.ini -> check /safeboot)
reboot, respectively
, put 4.3.1 daemon before this
, after that, mount the image into it, then turned on RMPS
, the installation went on, everything went smoothly, after the installation was completed, the PhysX firewood could not be installed due to policy (it does not matter)
again we go into boot.ini, uncheck the box without. mode, reset
and then install firewood Physical (I, personally, installed); to do this, we go into the image and in the Redist folder we find them,
finally we enter the starforce driver into the equipment
everything.
when you start the game, you will be asked to install the starforce driver, agree, after that the disk must be successfully checked and the game will start
