Borderless fullscreen windowed	See the glossary page for potential workarounds.
Anisotropic filtering (AF)	See the glossary page for potential workarounds.
Anti-aliasing (AA)	FXAA. SGSSAA can be forced with bits `0x004010C5` via Nvidia Profile Inspector, however this also disables some visual effects.
Vertical sync (Vsync)	On by default. Can be forced off through the graphics card control panel or in the config.ini file.
60 FPS
120+ FPS	Can be set in the config.ini file but introduces game breaking bugs.
High dynamic range display (HDR)	See the glossary page for potential alternatives.

Open the game executable with a hex editor such as HxD. Find the hex values `39 8E E3 3F`. Change it to `26 B4 17 40` (2560x1080) or `8E E3 18 40` (3440x1440).

Post-processing

Disable post-process effects^{[citation needed]}
Download Saint Seiya Soldier's Soul 3D Vision Fix. Extract the contents to the `SSSS` folder. Start the game and use the hotkeys below. Hotkeys `F4`: Cel shading disabling presets (enabled, disabled, only characters and only environment). Not disabled by default. Sometimes the game will reset this for some unknown reason. `F5`: Sun rays toggle. Not disabled by default. Forcing SGSSAA disables this effect anyway, alongside depth of field. `F6`: Some bloom toggle, some distant blurriness and also a darkness filter in some big bang attacks. Not disabled by default (SGSSAA disables that blurriness). `Z`: HUD toggle. Not disabled by default. `C`: Dark layer in some big bang attacks toggle (different shader from the F6 one). Disabled by default.
