Anisotropic filtering (AF)
Open Gothic.ini and change zTexAnisotropicFiltering=0
to zTexAnisotropicFiltering=1
. This is only an on/off setting; if it doesn't work or you want a higher setting, force it using the NVIDIA Control Panel/AMD VISION Engine Control Center instead.
Anti-aliasing (AA)
Open Gothic.ini and change zVidEnableAntiAliasing=0
to zVidEnableAntiAliasing=1
. This is only an on/off setting; if it doesn't work or you want a higher setting, force it using the NVIDIA Control Panel/AMD VISION Engine Control Center instead.
Input settings
Controller support
Gothic II has limited native controller support which can be enabled by editing Gothic.ini and changing enableJoystick=0
to enableJoystick=1
; note that some axes might not be detected and some inputs cannot be set to controller axes, e.g. camera controls. For best results you will probably want to use a different solution as well as or instead of the game's own controller support; see the controller with keyboard-only game page for details.
Issues fixed
Fullscreen border (Windows 8)
- Gothic and Gothic II show a window border in fullscreen mode on Windows 8.
