RE6 Crash Fix

Usage

• []Place `d3d9.dll` into the main game directory where `BH6.exe` is located (`steamapps\common\Resident Evil 6`)[/]

  []Start the game normally

  Important note

  The mod will automatically set the game resolution to the resolution of the screen the game is launched on.

  There will be NO OTHER RESOLUTIONS available in the game's graphic settings menu.

  To change the resolution, follow these steps:

  • []Navigate to the main game folder where `BH6.exe` is located (`steamapps\common\Resident Evil 6`)[/]

    []Open the resource folder[/]

    []If you already started the game at least once with this mod, there will be a file named `re6cfg.json`, if not, create it or run the game once (with this mod in the game dir)[/]

    []Open the re6cfg.json file, and change the `displayWidth` and `displayHeight` fields to a desired resolution that your screen supports. If you created the file manually, use the config template below.[/]

    []Save the file and run the game

    `re6cfg.json` config file template:

    "displayWidth": 1920,

    "displayHeight": 1080

    Doesn't work / Still crashing

    Please check the log file generated under  `<gamefolder>\resource\re6crashfix.log`.

    You should see a line like this:

    GetAdapterModeCount(This=XXXXXXXX, Adapter=X, Format=22) -> 285If the number at the end of this line (285 in this example) is less than 256, unfortunately, your crashes are likely caused by a different issue than the one this mod fixes.

    Technical Description

    The game assumes that the screen it's currently running on will have less than 256 modes.

    Having less than 256 display modes is very common with older hardware, but modern monitors usually have way more than 256 modes.

    This would not be a problem, if the game implemented proper bounds checking, which is unfortunately not the case.

    The structure which is to be populated with modes obtained via `IDirect3D9::EnumAdapterModes` is only big enough to hold 256 modes.

    However, the game will happily loop through and process all available modes from 0 up to the number of available modes obtained via `IDirect3D9::GetAdapterModeCount[/
