|
--launcher-skip skips the separate launcher.
-skipStartScreen skips the Breaching... start screen. Logos and intro will still be shown.
|

[Note 3]
Modify <path-to-game>\r6\config\settings\platform\pc\options.json [21]
|
- First-person models may appear stretched at values greater than 110. Also anything beyond 110 may cause LOD glitches.
- Go to
<path-to-game>\r6\config\settings\platform\pc .
- Open the
options.json file with notepad or any other file editing program.
- Search for the
fieldofview key, and change the "max_value" setting to your choosing. Changing any other value will cause the game to fail to boot.
- Save the file and launch the game.
- Open the Graphics - Field of View options and select your new FoV.
|
- Disable Screen Space Reflections in order to get rid of pixel artifacts that would have been blended with TAA
- DLSS requires temporal anti-aliasing to function; disabling TAA will prevent DLSS from working.
Add INI tweak to disable TAA[22]
|
Create (or open) the <path-to-game>\engine\config\platform\pc\user.ini file, and add the following inside it:
[Developer/FeatureToggles]
Antialiasing = false
ScreenSpaceReflection = false
|
Input
Disable double-tap dodge
Disable double-tap to dodge[23]
|
- Go to
<path-to-game>\r6\config\ .
- Open
inputContexts.xml with a text editor.
- Search (Ctrl+F) for
<!-- MULTITAP ACTIONS --> . Look at the lines directly below.
- Next to
DodgeForward , DodgeRight , DodgeBack and DodgeLeft will have the count set to 2 . Change this number to 99 .
- Save and exit the file.
Notes
- With these changes, you can no longer double-tap in a direction to dodge, but you can still hold a desired direction and double-tap the crouch button to dodge in that direction. If you prefer to have a dedicated, non-double-tap dodge key, read the next section.
|
Add a dedicated dodge key[23]
|
- After following the above steps, again open
inputContexts.xml .
- Search (Ctrl+F) for
<!-- MULTITAP ACTIONS --> again, and change Dodge 's count from 2 to 1 .

- In the same file location (
<path-to-game>\r6\config\ ), open inputUserMappings.xml .
- Search (Ctrl+F)
Dodge_Button . There should be three lines below this one, beginning with <button id= .
- Replace the
IK_LControl and IK_C lines with <button id="IK_Alt" /> . This will make it so you have to hold Alt and press a direction to dodge.
- You can change Alt to whichever key you want to use to dodge. (The IDs for the side mouse buttons are IK_Mouse4 and IK_Mouse5)
- Save and exit the file.
