WWE 2K15 PC 0.1.3 beta

Update of the unofficial PC port of WWE 2K15, focused on smaller PCs. No game data is included. If you already have 0.1.x, the launcher offers this update by itself (ABOUT page): your game folder, mods, settings and saves are kept.

Smaller PCs

• Lighter graphics option: GRAPHICS > untick "accurate rendering (FSI)", or pick the PERFORMANCE preset. It needs about 35-40 % less GPU work (measured), recommended for GTX 1650-class cards and below. The first matches may stutter a little while the shader cache fills up.
• Less CPU work in the thread that translates the game's graphics commands (about -10 %), which matters most on 2-4 core processors.

Fixed / improved

• SETTINGS > BROWSE now picks a file: default.xex (its folder is used) or an .iso. Before, it asked for a folder and default.xex was not visible.
• Mods now also work when playing from an ISO (they win over the title update files).
• Logs: no more hundreds of false "BaseHeap::Alloc" errors (it was the game probing free memory), and one line telling which rendering path is used (FSI or host).
• Mods guide: docs/MODS.md on GitHub.

Known issues

• Tested on one PC (NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti, and its AMD integrated GPU). Reports from GTX 1650-class cards, AMD and Intel GPUs, older CPUs and Steam Deck are very welcome (with the log file).
• Online features (Xbox Live, Xbox Store) do not work.
• No native Linux build yet: on Linux and Steam Deck, add the launcher to Steam as a non-Steam game and force Proton.

Bugs: please open an issue with your GPU, CPU, the scene, logs\wwe2k15_*.log and the crash/freeze report if there is one.
Never share the game files, the Title Update or DLC. Not affiliated with WWE, 2K or Yuke's.

En français

• Petits PC : option plus légère (GRAPHISMES > décocher « Rendu précis (FSI) », ou préréglage PERFORMANCE), environ 35 à 40 % de travail en moins pour la carte graphique ; et un peu moins de travail pour le processeur.
• PARCOURIR choisit maintenant un fichier : default.xex ou une .iso.
• Les mods marchent aussi avec une ISO ; journaux nettoyés ; guide des mods (docs/MODS.md).
