Fixes for chapter 14 and a full-speed gallery.
No game files are included. You need your own extracted dump, updated to v1.2.0. See INSTALL.txt in the zip, or the install guide.
Fixes
- Chapter 14, verse 7: the crash at the end of the verse, where four movies play back to back, is fixed. Chapter 14 now plays through to the end.
- Chapter 14, verse 4 (the Kraken):
- No more flat black slab with straight edges under the Kraken's black goo.
- The debris after a tentacle slam fades out instead of vanishing. Panning the camera while it fades no longer smears the ground.
- No more dotted patches on the ground around the goo.
- Gallery: The World of Bayonetta 3 now runs at full speed. It used to drop to 7-12 FPS while its background movie played.
Bug reports
- Previous log: the game keeps the log of its previous start, and the bug report from Help includes it. A crash log is no longer lost when you start the game again.
- Error message: if the game stops with an error, its message now shows on top of a fullscreen game instead of behind it.
- F6 capture: saves the next frame's images and a list of its draws to a
capturesfolder beside the game. This helps with graphics bugs. Each capture is about 200 MB, so delete the folder after sending it.
Upgrading from 0.2.5
Unzip 0.2.6 to a new folder, start B3-Express.exe and run Install again from your extracted dump. The game code has to be compiled again for the gallery fix, which takes a few minutes, and so do your graphics card's shaders on the first run. To keep your progress, copy the save folder from Bayo3_120\Bayo3_120_data of your old folder into the same place in the new one before you play.
Known limits
- Tested on one PC (Ryzen 7 5700X3D, RTX 3080). Other PCs and most chapters are untested
- Widescreen is still experimental, and a few menus can end short of the screen's edges
