Overview
Some tips for the game for Windows 7/8/10
Change resolution
1) Open SteamsteamappscommonBloodRaynesystem
2) Open rayne.ini with your favorite editor (notepad or notepad++ are fine)
3) Find
gamePIXY=VALUE1
gamePIXX=VALUE2
4) Insert the resolution in VALUE1 and VALUE2, for me it’s a 1366×768, so:
gamePIXY=768
gamePIXX=1366
5) Done! Don’t worry about the fov if the ratio isn’t 4:3 (mine is 16:9, for example), it is automatically adjusted by the game
Use compatibility mode
1) Open SteamsteamappscommonBloodRayne
2) Right click on rayne.exe > properties
3) Go into compatibily tab and set “Run this program for: Windows XP SP3”
4) Click ok
Use one core (if the game crash)
For me (Windows 7 x64) the game run fine without this, but if it crash ingame use this, it’s the same problem of Thief Gold
1) Open the game
2) Open task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Canc > Start task manager or Ctrl + Shift + Esc)
3) Go into preocesses tab
4) Select bloodrayne.exe, right click > Set affinity…
5) Select only CPU0 and click OK
The affinity will reset every time you close the game, so if this procedure fix some bug/crash you have to do it every time you open the game, before load a savegame or launch a new game.
Limit frame rate (if the game run too fast)
1) Download and install MSI afterburners
2) Open MSI afterburners and Rivatuner Statistics Server
3) Look in the taskbar, near the clock, you will see the Rivatuner icon, double click on it
4) There will be the frame limit option, enable it and set 30fps
5) Launch the game
Remember to launch Rivatuner before launch the game every time.
