Cutscenes are heavily stretched. 16:9 cutscenes can be downloaded here. Use them to replace the default ones in <path-to-game>\movies, and back up the original ones.

New AI upscaled cinematics and other FMV elements can be downloaded here. Resolution is limited to a maximum of 1080p due to the limitations of the used Bink Video version.

HUD becomes very small at high resolutions.

Anti-aliasing (AA)

By default, the game's AA can only be toggled on/off for the in-game HUD lines and orb stalks.

Force Anti-aliasing (AA) using either the Nvidia Control Panel or AMD Catalyst Control Center^[1]

Windowed

Go to `<path-to-game>`. Edit `flux.ini`. Change `full_screen = 1` to `full_screen = 0` Save the changes and close the file.

Ultra-widescreen

Use DDrawCompat^{[citation needed]}

Download the DDrawCompat wrapper by narzoul.
Place the ddraw.dll file to <path-to-game>\bin\release.
Launch the game and change the resolution in the options menu.
