The SilentPatch is an unofficial patch for the PC version of The Wonderful 101: Remastered created by the game programmer Silent (also known as CookiePLMonster), with additional features contributed by Banz99.
The patch's primary purpose is to fix frame pacing issues present in all update versions of the PC version of the game, allowing the game to correctly run at 60 frames per second. Among other improvements, the patch also notably includes the option to permanently replace the live orchestrated background music with their original versions.
The SilentPatch is currently compatible with any update version of the game (Current up to date version is 1.0.9), and has no effect on gameplay other than performance or the music setting, nor does it interfere with any Steam features.

Featured fixes[]
(Copied from https://cookieplmonster.github.io/mods/w101/#featured-fixes)
- The game’s frame limiter has been rewritten for greater accuracy. Previously it would lock the game at 59 FPS and calculations would drift over time, effectively making the game’s frame rate more unstable over time. It’s now been fixed to be rock solid 60 FPS with consistent frametime, regardless of playtime.
- Esc key used to put the game in the windowed mode has been remapped to Alt + Enter. Additionally, that hotkey can now cycle between windowed, fullscreen, and borderless instead of only putting the game in the windowed mode.
- 60 FPS cap can now optionally be disabled from the INI file. WARNING: The game does not support high frame rates and it will speed up, so use this option ONLY if you use VSync or external frame limiters (like RTSS).
- Error messages now display properly on PC’s with a non-Japanese locale.
- Original OST from the Wii U version of the game can now be enabled from the INI file.
(Note that configuring the SilentPatch to play the original background music overrides the effects of using the Platinum Code to toggle between the orchestrated and original background music. However, leaving the orchestrated background music intact in the SilentPatch's settings allows the Platinum Code to function as normal.)
