Field of view (FOV) | Default vertical FOV is 46°. Use Data0.pak of Realism Mod. Swapping Data0.pak may prevent loading existing save data. |
||
Windowed | |||
Borderless fullscreen windowed | Turning off "Full screen" option with game's resolution being equal to desktop's results in a borderless window but the presentation surface is "Composed with GPU GDI" which isn't optimal and breaks externally forced vsync. In Windows 10 and later with game's "Full screen" mode being "On" the presentation surface is being promoted to borderless window by the OS compositor by default. | ||
Anisotropic filtering (AF) | See the glossary page for potential workarounds. | ||
Anti-aliasing (AA) | No native option. Nvidia GPU users see Anti-aliasing (AA) below. Otherwise see the glossary page for potential workarounds. | ||
