{{ii}} Frame rate affects certain in-game mission timers; at high frame rates (above 100 fps or so) some side objectives may fail too quickly to be completed.
 +
{{ii}} In-game V-sync option locks frame rate to 60 regardless of modifications to console.cfg or monitor refresh rate.

Field of view (FOV)

This game uses vertical FOV. See FOV Calculator for help.
Set FOV in system.cfg[4]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>.
  2. Edit system.cfg.
  3. Change cl_fov= and r_DrawNearFov= to the desired value.
  4. Save the changes and close the file.

High frame rate

Set FPS cap in console.cfg[citation needed]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\Game2\_FastLoad\.
  2. Open startup.pak, look in Config and extract console.cfg.
  3. Open console.cfg and make a new line: sys_maxfps 144.
  4. Save console.cfg, drag and drop it back in to startup.pak.

Notes

Frame rate affects certain in-game mission timers; at high frame rates (above 100 fps or so) some side objectives may fail too quickly to be completed.
In-game V-sync option locks frame rate to 60 regardless of modifications to console.cfg or monitor refresh rate.

Screen effects

Disable screen effects[5]
  1. Open <path-to-game>\system.cfg.
  2. Add a new line r_Flares=0.
  3. Save the file.

Issues fixed

Game chooses wrong refresh rate

CryEngine 3 may set the monitor's refresh rate to the lowest supported refresh rate if the game is in fullscreen mode; this results in stuttering and poor performance even if internal GPU render shows a high FPS.[3]
Override refresh rate set by game[7]
  1. Download 3Dmigoto.
  2. Copy the files in x32 to <path-to-game>.
  3. Open d3dx.ini.
  4. Change ;refresh_rate=60 to the desired value, and remove the semicolon (e.g. refresh_rate=144).
  5. Change hunting=1 to ;hunting=1.
  6. Save the changes and close the file.
Play the game in DirectX 9[7]
Disable fullscreen optimizations
  1. Navigate to <path-to-game>/Bin/ and locate EnemyFront.exe.
  2. Right click EnemyFront.exe and choose Properties.
  3. Select the Compatibility tab, and check Disable fullscreen optimizations.
  4. Hit Apply and the game will now run at the monitor's native refresh rate.

Notes

  1. When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/256190/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (256190) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
