Alone in the Dark (2008)

AITD Alone in the Dark 2008 PC : Audio Garbled (SOLVED) Stuttering Gameplay (SOLVED) Win11
just wanted to shoutout @SuicideMachine for putting this file here.
https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/1268-alone-in-the-dark-resolution-crash-fix/
it took me a few attempts to get it working here, i moved the files to the regular game directory in steamcommon files from the link, then edited the INI file to read as follows.
compatibility mode windows 95 in alone.exe and disable fullscreen optimations.
once in the game, i had to lower the volume literally to 2 bars and restart, then rely on my stereo to increase the volume. this gets caused from AUDIO PEAKING, the volume is so loud it blows out that little virtual soundblaster16 or whatever ancient bad code is there.

[MAIN]
FPSLimit = 60 // max fps (0: unlimited/off)
FPSLimitMode = 1 // 1: realtime (thread-lock) | 2: accurate (sleep-yield)
FullScreenRefreshRateInHz = 0 // overrides refresh rate selected by directx
DisplayFPSCounter = 1 // displays fps and frametime on screen
ForceWindowedMode = 1 // activates forced windowed mode

[FORCEWINDOWED]
UsePrimaryMonitor = 0 // move window to primary monitor
CenterWindow = 1 // center window on screen
AlwaysOnTop = 0 // window stays always on top
DoNotNotifyOnTaskSwitch = 0 // window ignores focus loss
ForceWindowStyle = 3 // 1: borderless fullscreen | 2: window | 3: resizable window
