Batman: Arkham Asylum Leaked Bugs and Fixes
A few days ago, one of the most anticipated games this September for PC along with Resident Evil 5 is Batman: Arkham Asylum has been leaked via private tracker with the name Batman Arkham Asylum D2D READNFO-P2P. It was a two weeks ealry leaked before it’s released date so those who can’t wait(like me) downloaded that version.
Unluckily, it seems it wasn’t a full polished game due to lots of bugs. Check Below what annoying showstopper bugs you’ll encounter.
-First release, the save game was screwed big time. Everytime you restart the game save file won’t be there to continue. Remember a NES/Family Computer? Pretty much like that.
-Second bug issue is the glide. Batman CANNOT glide which is essential for survival.
-Third is the NO Physx enable, it will crash but I heard of a fix for this.
I haven’t experienced the first two bugs but instead these:
-Twice I grappled and went through the walls towards the black of nowhere.(See Image Below)

-Lastly, the Botanical Garden bug where you can’t pass through due to the invisible large plant blocking your way and if you take the left ventilation you can’t grapple. I Google this glitch and yes I’m not the only one who experience it. Somebody even posted it on YouTube! Once you beat Poison Ivy at the Botanical Garden the finale was almost near.
To sum it up, Batman Arkham Asylum D2D READNFO-P2P was f*cked up! Better wait and buy the original on September 15. I mean seriously, the game really rocks! Finally a good Batman game and you WILL really experience being the Dark Knight.
Definitely worth it!
UPDATE: I just beat the game last night using scales save file, xboxlive profile and binaries by overwriting my files. After overwrite I played the game, log out my xboxlive profile and used scale profile and load his game and… yup the invisible plant in the botanical garden now exist. Just a little note, you’ll still find bugs like empty room, just load from last checkpoint and you’re good to go!

that is why i never ever use a pirated copy of pc games
coz it is not only unfair to the makers of the game but to everybody who supported this games for pc
dont be a pirate , buy original
well not everyone has so much money to waste on originals,so they go pirite.
Story wise does the game comes up to par?
I stuck on that garden as well and I’m glad you managed to beat the game already. I wanted to download the scale files but the download link seems down, mind checking it? Thanks.
There’s a way to get past this. Go to My documents/Eidos/Batman Arkham Asylum/BmGame and open the file “BmGame.ini” and set “DefaultGravityZ” from -1000.0 to 0.0.
Now climb up to the fountain in front of the hole you climbed down and jump over Poison Ivy’s tree thing, and then glide down to in front of the door. Keep gliding until you touch the ground, otherwise Batman will just be left floating in the air.
It’s hard and it’s going to require several tries and some luck.
WTF !!??
links doesn’t work????
this game made me mad…..
bugs everywhere…no grapple…grapple into walls…stuck areas(now I hate ivy)..unfortunately I felled in the sea and used grapple, suddenly I was in the deadman caves !! now I’m stuck, isn’t there anyway to go up again,,PLEASE HHHHHHEEEELLLLLPPPPP
I hate my life
(I thought I was the only one like number 13)
Um, im in dire need here, there isn’t any grapple in Scarecrows final place after i jump onto a cage that drops me down. There is supposed to be grapple, i know there is. I got past the last place, the ivy where the vent cannot be grappled.
This is what i did, i stood facing where u had to go to talk to cash then turned and ran off the side left. i landed on some tin shit(dunno what its called, don’t care either) then i turned towards the stairs underneath the place i just jumped from. Jumped onto the stairs, walked through the door and grappled back up in the other room. should be simple enough. NOW HELP ME!!!!
I NEED TO PASS SCARECROW GUY!!!
yes da shit scarecrow level right??
i too get da same problem..
but da best option is 4gt da game.. der r better ones withobugs out der…
can you plz upload the scale files again…the given link is not working…
I too god the problem with the scarecrow and the cage that falls down, after the scene with imprisoned batmans at about 48% percent of the game. When I get dropped down, the grapple is marked like “x” “not available”, but there should be. I have been stuck here for 3 days now (it’s april the 2nd today). Also, I had the same problem when I wanted to exit the cave and the botanical garden, but later on the grapple option turned available. I thought this time it would be the same situation, but evidently it isn’t. Anyway, I am kicking some butts through the “challenge mode”.
I’ve found solution to the “grappling-hook-at-scarecrow’s-third-level” problem! as PAJA says, you should go to My documents/Eidos/Batman Arkham Asylum/BmGame and open the file “BmGame.ini” and set “DefaultGravityZ” from -1000.0, but not to 0.0 (you will just fly away without landing, lol), instead of this “DefaultGravityZ” should equals “-50.0″, this makes Batsy jump higher and longer, but he won’t reach the next hanging cell, like if there was an invisible wall. but that’s not a problem: while Batman was landing close enough to this last cell, i was just smashing “R” button (grapple) – and voilà! Batsy grabs the edge of the cell and gets on it!
im srruked on botanical gardens bcoz i cant grapple to the the ventilation system any solution
Nice post here..Just experience what it’s like to be Batman using explosive gel aerosol, the Batclaw, sonar resonator and the line launcher!
