Guide

• Go to https://github.com/Lyall/DeadIsland2Fix/releases/latest
  
• Under Assets, click DeadIsland2Fix_vX.X.X.zip to download the Dead Island 2 Fix archive
  
• Right click Dead island 2 in your Steam Library and click "Properties"
  Under Local Files, click the "Browse..." button

• Extract DeadIsland from DeadIsland2Fix_vX.X.X.zip inside the game folder

If for any reason you don't want to apply a specific fix:

• Open \DeadIsland\Binaries\Win64\DeadIsland2Fix.ini with a text editor and set the fix from true to false

Xbox Game Pass

Xbox uses a slightly different folder structure so you'll have to rename a folder in order to make this mod work.

Open \DeadIsland\Binaries\ and rename Win64 to WinGDK.
Confirm if asked to merge folders.

Linux / Steam Deck

To make the fixes work under Linux, add the following to the launch parameters on Steam:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dsound=n,b" %command%

Thanks so much it's worked.

[WINSTON]

I have the game on Steam but I'm pretty sure Xbox uses WinGDK instead of Win64, so your folder structure should look like this:

... > DeadIsland > Binaries > WinGDK > [mod files]

[gr4j0m3r]

It doesn't seem to work on PC Game pass. Did I do something wrong? Normally, the game pass executable modification is locked but this mod doesn't trigger any of that but it's just doesn't work.
