What's new

Let's talk: MKX on PC

Nothing changed for me after the update.

I still have to play at 800x600 with everything set to minimum to get 60... i mean 55fps with my I5 2500k + 670GTX
I have a solid 60fps, even before the 15GB update and I too have an i5 2500k, 16GB, GTX 670 and I play in 1080p.

The patch worked like magic for me. I have everything maxed at 1080p, except for particle density which is at 10%. Solid 60fps on kuatan jungle against master of storms Raiden. Even better, the menus, x-rays, fatalities, etc. don't lag anymore--just cuts down to it's usual 30fps cap and runs smoothly.

I also did #2 & #3 of what this guy recommended: http://steamcommunity.com/app/307780/discussions/0/618459405708806547/

Did it right after the patch installed, so I can't be sure which helped more.
I read this guy's post a few days ago, but his option 2 doesn't make sense unless you're not already running the latest version of Direct X.

Yeah I know. He was just pointing out that most games automatically update Direct X, and MKX does not, so people who don't update outside of game installs will still need to do it manually.

Ah, that makes sense. Though oddly, when I installed the game and ran it on Wednesday, Steam did come up with the first launch bit, and it did show it was installing Direct X.

I have Windows 8.1, so I have the latest version at the moment anyway.

After the update Dead Woods or whatever that stage is called has some awful visual bug. Only seems to be on that stage. I'll try and take a screenshot. Other stages work fine though.

yeah this happened to me too online just a moment ago. totally freaked out when it happened lol.

anyone else having trouble to go online? when try go for online modes it just stops at "readings stats" and wont to online no matter how long I wait. the days before it worked fine.

even if I access online mode by chance I cant get into the rooms since "The chat server is not available. Please try again later."

aaaand another problem: can you guys see the ping from the other players online? I cant lol and its loading forever

seems like this patch did more harm than good lol

Don't know about this patch one. I know about the fucking 15.4gb one they released yesterday for graphics improvement on PC. Lol

And I don't know about the rest of you, but the netcode of PC is just pure and total gargabe. 0/3 latency for EVERYONE I tried to play against. Even a friend of mine who lives a couples blocks from here. I only brought this game to play online and right now it's just not possible...

Just installed the 15GB patch and tested Dead Woods; looks fine for me still, thankfully.

I don't think the PC version received the console patch yet. Didn't see the free Klassic Sub-Zero skin when I went to character select.

Taken from post

I can't take credit for this since I didn't discover it (read it from another post), but I tried this and was FINALLY able to change button mapping on my hitbox.

Unplug your keyboard, leaving only your desired controller plugged in.

Load MKX.

Try changing button mapping.

Save preset.

Plug keyboard back in after you're done playing.

Seems MKX can only remap buttons when one type of controller is plugged in. Unfortunate that we have to resort to these kinds of workarounds just to get our game to work. work around

Guess someone already posted it. And I made a typo
thank you so much!

Get your guns on. Sheriff is back.
Hmm...things are a little better now after today. I was able to run 720P functionally. Sky Temple isn't great but its not unplayable now.

The configure button doesn't work with me. It just launches the "MKXLauncher.exe" process in the background, consumes ~20% CPU power, and I get nothing. It's weird.

How can I check my fps in game? I see no option in the menu. Maybe a console command? Or is everyone using a separate program?
