fixes the following problems:

Application will not start. It exits as soon as it is run with no errors or warnings.Application will not detect or display the Direct3D video driver as a valid video option at startup.

Joystick buttons cannot be bound to 'Crouch' and auto-repeat too rapidly when bound to menu selection commands. We recommend this patch should be applied after installing the main retail patch, although it can be applied without it if desired.

If the Direct3D driver is still not detected after installing this patch you can manually force it to display by following these steps:
Delete the file "C:\Program Files\DS9TheFallen\System\DS9.ini"
Run The Fallen
If Direct3D is still not recognized as a valid video option hit "Cancel" to exit the video selection screen.

Open up the file "C:\Program Files\DS9TheFallen\System\DS9.ini" using NotePad.
Find the section labeled "[D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice]"

Directly below this add a line that reads DescFlags=1" (without the quotes)
Save the file and run The Fallen again.
