Use DLL injection with Cheat Engine[citation needed]
|
- Download Hattiwatti's DLL - works with patch 1.2[6] (exe v1.75.0.7) and patch 1.3 (exe v1.75.0.12).
- Download and install Cheat Engine.
- Once you have started the game, use the button at the left top in the Cheat Engine window to open the process selector and choose "Dishonored2.exe".
- Open the "Memory View" window with the button on the left.
- Select "Inject DLL" in the menu "Tools", then select the DLL file you unpacked from the ZIP. Confirm "Execute?" with yes.
- You can close Cheat Engine. Mind that you have to inject the DLL whenever you run the game if you want the FOV features.
- In the game, use PageUp and PageDown to change the FOV. You can also press Home to toggle HUD objective locators without having to go through the menus.
|
- SMAA anti-aliasing is a low cost solution for eliminating geometry aliasing (and other jagged edges) that looks sharper than FXAA/TXAA and can result in better performance.
Inject SMAA via Reshade with dynamic mask that doesn't affect UI[citation needed]
|
- Disable in-game anti-aliasing.
- Download custom Reshade preset.
- Copy archive files to
<path-to-game> .
- This will not counter many types of aliasing, such as "sub-pixel" aliasing and "shimmering".

Long time to load main menu
This happens because the game pre-compiles a lot of shaders before starting.
Increase shader cache size (NVIDIA-only)[13][14]
|
If you increase the size of your shader cache, then your PC will keep the shaders from last time playing saved and doesn't have to re-compile on restarting the game.
- Open Nvidia Control Panel.
- Set shader cache size to a higher level.
The shaders are saved under %LOCALAPPDATA%\NVIDIA\DXCache
- On AMD cards, shader cache can only be turned on or off, size can't be manually set.[15]
