Little Big Adventure – Twinsen’s Quest

Status: Bronze | Installs: Yes | Opens: Yes

Game crashes when run without modification.

Technical background

A patch is required to make the game run. Patching Rewired_WindowsGamingInput.dll found under the data directory in Plugins/x86_64 makes the game run, although some issues surrounding use of controllers remain.

The function Core_IsAPISupported in the aforementioned DLL needs to be patched to always return false. This prevents calling an API that isn't implemented.

Patching

For the DLL with SHA256 946478c5e8f61cbe75c6d70e3aabe2766126605cba45ddb579a5ef38fb198e98 three bytes at offset 0x600 need to be changed to b0 00 c3. The resulting file should have a SHA256 of 954fa6b2960b2567797f061ec11131d026c1c640e5dfb8e9d4d2bae593151d36

Issues

Game is playable through the end, with all cutscenes playing correctly and no graphical corruption observed. Playing with a controller sometimes makes Twinsen perform an action continuously. This issue only occurs when loading or starting a game and is resolved by quitting and restarting the game.
