High frame rate

Change target frame rate and limit^[1]^[2]

To change target frame rate:

Open <path-to-game>\ConfigFiles.ini with a hex editor
Change both LockedFrameRate and LockedFrameRatePAL to the desired value.

To change the frame rate limit:

Open <path-to-game>\DEM2.exe with a hex editor such as HxD.
Search for F0 C1 00 00 F0 41 00 00 B4, and replace 00 00 F0 41 (30) with one of the following:
- 00 00 70 42 for 60 FPS.
- 00 00 B4 42 for 90 FPS.
- 00 00 F0 42 for 120 FPS.
- 00 00 10 43 for 144 FPS.

Playing at higher frame rates causes various gameplay and physics issues.

The amount of issues significantly increases if the game is not running at the target frame rate.

Issues fixed

Crashing at launch (Retail)

This fix is no longer needed with the Steam version. This issue has been officially fixed with the February 2021 patch.^[4]

The game will crash upon launch on a PC configuration with more than 4 Cores (excluding virtual cores, which would actually be 10 total cores)

Download this file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/m8ewe5w8slf3zuv/EM2_FIX.zip
Extract the archive.
Copy "dinput8.dll" and paste it into the game directory: Normal directory for the Steam version = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Disney Epic Mickey 2"

Notes

Roughly explained, this file tricks the game telling it that the system has 4 cores, while it actually has more. The game itself does not seem to behave badly on a setup with many cores, it's just about a core count check.

Cutscene(s) freezing

The game may freeze upon entering Mean Street North or any other area that starts with a cutscene.

Steam Overlay method

Opening the Steam Overlay during the cutscene(s) with ⇧ Shift+Tab ↹.

Notes

Not guaranteed to work.

Disabling cutscene(s)

Right-click the game in your Steam library.
Click "Manage", then click "Browse local files".
In the folder that pops up (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Disney Epic Mickey 2, or something similar), create a file called ConfigOverride.ini.
Write in the following line, then save and launch the game:

SkipIGCs=true

Notes

To reactivate the cutscenes, delete or rename ConfigOverride.ini and restart the game.

Safe method.
