The Saboteur Map Bug Patch
I thought I'd post some solutions to the common PC problems with running The Saboteur. People ask around a lot and the EA support never answered me, so I thought I'd compile some information in one thread instead of having people post their own threads for each problem. The Saboteur won't run on a computer using an ATI graphics card Solution: Patch the game at the following link: 2. The Saboteur won't run on a computer with a quad-core processor. Symptoms: The first cutscene lags and flickers like hell. Solution: Turn of processor core 3 and 4 while running the game.
Start the game 2. When at the main menu, hit ctrl-alt-del, click the activity handler(? I only know what it's in Swedish, something like that though) make sure that you have your desktop in the background, not the game. Click processes 4. Right-click TheSaboteur.exe and select the option that has to do with processors(Yet again, dunno what it's on computers from other countries) 5. Uncheck processor 2 and 3.
For The Saboteur on the PC, a GameFAQs message board topic titled 'Problem with The Map'. ATI video card owners unable to play Pandemic's WW2 shooter The Saboteur might find their Christmas wishes answered by a new beta patch, available now from FileShack. The beta patch is intended.
Click ok and quit activity handler(manager?) 7. Alt tab back into the game.
The video was posted on Karolina Protsenko’s Facebook page with a signature in English: “For the first time in my life, I felt that we could die. We are trapped in a fire trap. Fortunately, Caroline and her mother managed to safely get out of the fiery trap. The road is smoky, everything is ablaze, constantly have to stop because of traffic jams created by residents who are also trying to evacuate as soon as possible.
This has to be repeated every time you start the game afaik. It might've been fixed in the patch, I can't really confirm. The Saboteur fucks up entirely when I try to play with my Xbox 360 gamepad.
It says it's compatible on the box! Symptoms: The camera spins around while shooting/driving with the 360 gamepad. Solution: Before starting the game, unplug your 360 controller. When you're inside the game(At a point where you can control Sean, not the main menu) Plug it back in. Post any other problems and solutions below ^^.
