Anti-aliasing (AA)

The game does not allow disabling of anti-aliasing via the options menu.
Disable Anti-aliasing via the game's config file[2]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\spacegame\Config\.
  2. Open DefaultEngine.ini for editing. Make a backup at this time if you wish.
  3. On approx. line 143, change AntiAliasing to 0. The full line should read r.DefaultFeature.AntiAliasing=0 after changes.
  4. Save the file and reopen your game. Changes to video settings in game may override changes made to the config file.
  5. If you did not make a backup, you may reset to defaults by deleting the file and using 'verify integrity of game files' through Steam to re-download the default config file.

Notes

  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>/310380/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (310380) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
