I have sort of solved the slowdown problem I was having. Well not really solved but made it less apparent. I locked my FPS to 30 and the problem more or less went away. It appears to slow down once in a while but maybe it's just my mind playing tricks on me. However if it indeed is mind then it would appear that the game was trying to cap my game at 30 FPS. I also have v-sync off so I dunno what causes it. 30 is a bit too less for this thou IMO but atleast I can play til a patch comes along.
Oh and also does anyone know how to use commandline parameters with the SKIDROW release?

Bokeh Filter OFF:



Bokeh Filter ON:



Notice that Rico is in Aiming mode, which changes his depth of field to focus on whats closer. The bokeh filter makes the lights in the background big pentagons and blurs the distant objects a bit more, when in aiming mode. It's not noticeable otherwise (not that I've noticed, anyways).

And I did notice a 3 FPS drop with it ON.

I heard something about some kind of signal meter, I don't want to know where or how to get it, I just want to know... Is it some kind of item that beeps as you get closer to all these upgrade-pickups you look for? Or was it something else you guys were talking about?

I have only done like 10-15 missions, rest of the time races and exploring. Razz


Its on your Mini Map, look in the Top Left corner, a meter appears when theres a box somewhere close to you, and the signal grows stronger the closer you are. Flashes when you are within like 40 meters of a box.

Someone said to install the game into a non default folder would get past the game not starting. I installed my into C:\Games\Just Cause 2 and now everything works fine with SKIDROW release, where as before in the Program Files (x86) folder the game would not launch. Hope this helps others having that issue.


I had problems making the game run at all even running EXE as admin in Program Files, so installed it into C:\Games\Just Cause 2, i'm running win 7 32bit all working fine now.

Checked that it isn't a beep from the internal speaker due to overheating?

it's not overheating as everything works perfectly - and i don't have seagate nor a beeper in my computer at all
i've only heard it in saboteur and jc2 at random (long) intervals through the soundcard
not a proper beep or alarm or anything melodic.. just a very short and silent "bip" sound

Frequency issue or driver related perhaps, Xonar cards for example can be a bit buggy when using GX mode (hardware.) and Realtek releases new drivers nearly every month.
(Creative have also been quite active, unsure what the game uses for it's audio system and how compatible it is with different soundcards and their drivers.)

Yeah I get them sometimes too, I think they get stuck when you select dual weapons with 2, just switching weapons makes them disappear.

i just completed this game. i wasn't hooked enough to play it through to completion in one sitting. the graphics is ok. i turned off blurring because it got pretty annoying after a while. i love that it supports xbox 360 controller with onscreen button callouts for those button press sequences.

i skipped through 90% of the cutscenes so i didn't really care for the ending. what a surprise though when i get to mercenary mode after beating the main campaign. game said i'm only a little over 10% completion. Very Happy

i really like the grappling/parachute mechanic. i don't know why they have to play that stupid cutscene each time you call your helicopter black market to upgrade and stuff. it's a good thing it's skippable (although i found several cases where skipping did not work).

anyway, nice game. i plan to try to get 100% but probably at leisure/slow pace as i'm not very hooked to the game.

One thing i hate about the game is that the Island "police" is WAAAAAY too sensitive. I look at them funny and they send attack choppers after me.. I bump a cone slightly and cops from 2 km will come after me....
