The torrent version for 'Splinter Cell Blacklist' will crash every 20-40 minutes because it could not be fully cracked (I tried every crash-fix) so don't even bother.

Ubisoft sold to me (directly through Uplay) the 'digital deluxe' version for only $13.00 WOW!!

This game is very sensitive to high refresh rates

My nvidia setting was 2560x1440 @ 144Hz (some cut-scenes crashed the game)

I customized a new refresh rate to 84Hz

I turned off anti-aliasing

I turned off Vsinc

Then matched Nvidia's custom refresh rate to game's configuration file:

Go to … \Documents\Ubisoft\Blacklist\videoSettings.ini

MaxRefreshRate=84

UseMotionBlur=1 (change to UseMotionBlur=0)

UseBloom=1 (change to UseBloom=0)

Finally, this game was released one week before Windows 8.1

So, if you run Win10-64bit then:

>>>RUN all game.exe files in "Compatibility mode" for "Windows 8"

All other in-game graphic settings I maxed out to the extreme for Dx.11 candy.

So I now run it in 'full screen' at 2560x1440 @ 84 Hz on my Geforce 1070-Ti

In my last 10 hour game session it crashed only once, because I initially forgot to lower the refresh rate and to turn off anti-aliasing and kill Vsinc.

This game is underrated; so far, I would give it a ballzy 9/10

The game play at 'Realistic' difficulty is a cruel beast – oh yeah baby.

And gosh darn it, do I ever miss Michael Ironside.

Could there be a glitch? In the PC version of LA Noire, I have started the case "A marriage made in heaven" and when I try to zoom in on the 'bloody knife' found in the trash can the sound of zooming in starts, then quickly stops. The new clue doesn't register as new evidence. I thought there might be a patch required but I can't find one. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to fix this strange glitch?

Man, I tried all suggest fixes and none worked. So I fixed it myself.

I remembered in older versions of windows that there was a "system" folder that today in win7 is called "system32". Well, I went to c:\windows\system32 and copied OpenAL32.dll and pasted it to a completely empty folder called "system" that just comes before system32.

I then clicked open 3DMark06.exe and it ran perfectly.

It is strange that the OpenALdill file that I pasted there is the only file in this system folder. But hey dude, 3DMark06 now runs great

rovetti1982 you are completely correct. Bit Torrents are the result of consumers getting ripped off. Dragon Naturally Speaking is a major example of ripping off consumers, after testing it I'll never buy it. As for 'dead space' - if after eight months there is no patch to re-map keys (I am right handed and I hate wsad) to the arrow keys then I am sure as hell not forking out $67 bucks until the patch comes out.
