Improvements
Borderlands Config Tool
This tool allows you to do the following and more:
- Disable Startup Movies
- Disable story introduction movies
- Disable mouse smoothing
- Disable in-game voice chat
- Windowed mode
- V-sync
- Change FOV
- Increase Difficulty (LAN only)
NOTE: Make sure to run the game and change a keybind in the options at least once before running the tool. This will create the necessary .ini files and should fix options being disabled in the tool.
