Read Full Description

The game v1.1 with NoDVD has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit, Windows 10 and Windows 11 21H2, it works fine, the game supports high and widescreen resolutions up to 4k. You may experience some small troubles when you play the game on modern systems, check our Guide and Notes for details

Install & play guide:

  • Mount the ISO image with disc image utility, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 120% or Daemon Tools Lite, etc. Or, if you have WinRAR installed, extract the files from ISO image
  • Install the game (if autorun doesn't work - simply launch the installation from Setup.exe inside the disc). It is recommended to install the game not in default path, but in some other, non-system folder, like C:/Games/Spider-Man Web of Shadows
  • After you installed the game, install the patch v1.1, run the patch installer as administrator
  • Then use NoDVD, simply copy Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe from the archive and and put it in Spider-Man Web of Shadows/image/pc folder, agree to replace original file
  • Open the directory with installed game and find Spider-Man Launcher.exe and Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe. Right click on both exe-files -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows XP" and "Run as administrator"
  • Run the Launcher (Spider-Man Launcher.exe) to configure the game settings and select the screen resolution
  • Launch the game from Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe and play. If the game doesn't work in compatibility mode with Windows XP - try to launch it in compatibility mode with other version of Windows (Windows Vista, Windows 7, etc.)

Repacks are already include the game v1.1 with NoDVD, you can simply install & play. If you have WinRAR installed, you can extract repacks as an archive - right click on .ISO file -> Extract files. Repack by ElAmigos includes English, French, German, Italian & Spanish languages, repack by R.G. Mechanics include English & Russian languages (make sure to select the language before installation, by default it install Russian version). However, repacks doesn't include fixes, so we recommend to check our Guide and Notes if you have troubles

What to do if you have stuttering in game:

  • First thing, try to use Stuttering Fix, it significantly decrease the number of stutters and micro-freezes. That fix must be installed on the game v1.0, it includes the edited configuration files & patch v1.1, the installation instruction is inside the archive. If you still have stutters even with that fix - disable Vsync in Launcher (Spider-Man Launcher.exe), also make sure that Vsync is disabled in settings of your video card. And we recommend to install the game on SSD if you have it, that should decrease the number of stutters too
  • If it didn't help - go to C:/Users/"UserName"/AppData/Local/Activision/Spider-Man Web of Shadows folder and open Config.xml in Notepad. Add the following lines at the bottom of the file and save the file (check this thread for details what it changes):
       <s id="Windowed">0</s>
       <s id="MaxCpuCount">4</s>
       <s id="VideoHz">60</s>
</r>
  • If even that methods didn't work - try to run the game in Borderless Windowed mode, you probably will need to use Borderless Gaming app, check this guide for instructions. Additionally, try to disable Vsync in the game through Launcher, and enable Fast Vsync for the game in control panel of your video card

Notes:

  • If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP)
  • It is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and NET Framework for the correct work of the game. Also it is recommended to install K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game videos
  • The game works on DirectX 9, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
  • NoDVD is required for the launch because the game is using SafeDisc DRM protection, which doesn't work correctly on modern systems. NoDVD "cracks" DRM protection and allows to run the game without the disc. If you see error that there's not enough space on the hard drive when you copy NoDVD files - re-install the game in non-system folder, like D:/Games/Spider-Man Web of Shadows, Windows Protection may block copying of files to system folders (like C:/Program Files or C:/Windows)
  • If you have issues with broken mechanics or visual glitches: originally the game was designed to run at 30 FPS, the patch v1.1 unlocks higher framerate up to 120 FPS. But there might be issues on high framerates, making some missions impassable, here's the list of possible issues. It can be fixed by limiting the framerate to 30 FPS with framerate limit utilities. For example, the easiest method is to use ThirteenAG's d3d9-wrapper (32-bit version from d3d9.zip), simply copy d3d9.dll & d3d9.ini in Spider-Man Web of Shadows/image/pc folder, next to Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe, then open d3d9.ini in Notepad and enter FPSLimit=30; after that save the changes and run the game. That method can be used when you only need it, like you can beat the hard mission with 30 FPS framerate cap, then uncap the framerate and keep playing with high FPS (enter FPSLimit=0 to remove the cap, or remove d3d9 files from the game folder)
  • Please note that if you use Stuttering Fix and limit the framerate at the same time, you may get visual glitches; so if you have any glitches - reinstall the game without Stuttering Fix, don't forget to make back-up of savegames files
  • If you have too sensitive mouse control or camera moving too fast - lower mouse sensitivty in Launcher. If it didn't help - cap the framerate at 30 FPS, it should help
  • The game has full controller support, but mouse must be connected to navigate through the Launcher. The game should work fine with XInput-type controllers and PlayStation gamepads; if the game doesn't recognize your gamepad - try using one of the additional tools from PCGamingWiki guide for controllers
  • If you have problem with broken sound effects or disappearing sound - first try to change the sound settings. If it didn't work - set sound quality to 24 bit, 48000 Hz or 24 bit, 44100 Hz. Read this guide how to do that
  • If you play on ultrawide or multi-display setup, use TripleHead Fix by WSGF, to have the correct Field of View (FOV), check this thread for details
  • For users of Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7: if you have errors at launch, try to install all redistrutables from the disc (DirectX, vcredist_x86.exe, Windows Installer 3.1.exe, msxml6_x86.exe, dotnetfx35.exe), even if you have other versions of that redistrutables installed (if the installer will say that newer version is installed, simply click OK)
  • The game has a lot of mods, you can find them on ModDB, NexusMods or GameBanana
  • After updating the game to v1.1, the un-installer shows error, for unknown reason. If you see the error when you try to delete the game through Windows Control Panel, delete the game with special utilities such as Revo Uninstaller
  • Don't forget to check PCGamingWiki if you have troubles!

Hey admin i don't know if you Will ever read this but, does this game always freezes and crash for like 10 minutes of playing on modern hardware? I already installed net framework visual c++ and such and i also put dxvk to prevent crash but still no luck, game was running fine and smooth on my system, is there a fix for this? Thanks in advance

"Originally the game was designed to run at 30 FPS, so if you have troubles with game working too fast (for example, mouse control can be too sensitive at high FPS) - in that case temporarily cap the frame rate to 30 FPS through utilities like DxWnd or RTSS" Sooo... what the hell does that mean?

Allie 2024-09-10 -1 point

You know how there's a part where you're supposed to take out these giant needles to deactivate Fisk's defenses so you can reach the top? Yeah, i press the button and it kinda wants to do the animation but it doesn't actually do it.
Any ideas what may be causing that? And how can I fix it?

Aununu 2024-08-05 1 point

to anyone that tried to install the iso version of web of shadows and it didnt work try to install it to a custom folder, then download the 1.1 updater, extract it (you can use winrar or 7zip) and run the "SMWoS-1.1-PatchSetup" file then put your web of shadows folder location and download the patch, then download the noCD 1.1 Patch And extract it then copy the "Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe" file from the noCD 1.1 folder and paste it to where the "Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe" is at then click replace all files and your done :P (you can left click the "Spider-Man Web of Shadows.exe" and press create a shortcut if you want a shortcut)

SrCookie 2023-12-14 1 point

For those who asking, you need to install 3 files for the ISO original DVD: Obvious, the ISO version, the 1.1 patch and the NoDVD for 1.1 version. You just need to replace the exe from the image/pc folder by the NoDVD exe.
Now, have fun with your game!
