Widescreen resolution | 16:9 aspect ratio only. Use Sonic Forces FOV Fix or the Flawless Widescreen script. | ||
Multi-monitor | Use Sonic Forces FOV Fix or the Flawless Widescreen script. | ||
Ultra-widescreen | Use Sonic Forces FOV Fix or the Flawless Widescreen script. | ||
4K Ultra HD | |||
Field of view (FOV) | Use Sonic Forces FOV Fix or the Flawless Widescreen script. | ||
Windowed | |||
Borderless fullscreen windowed | |||
Anisotropic filtering (AF) | Up to 16 samples. | ||
Anti-aliasing (AA) | |||
Vertical sync (Vsync) | Double buffered. | ||
60 FPS and 120+ FPS | Pre-rendered and in-game cutscenes are composed at 30 FPS. Framerates above 60 FPS work in windowed mode on Windows, but will cause gameplay issues that prevent completion of some stages, and worsen the higher the framerate. |
||
High dynamic range display (HDR) | Use Auto HDR or Special K. |
High frame rate
- The 30 FPS internal cap on in-engine cutscenes are locked to 30 regardless of settings.
- QTEs and a few in-game events will still remain capped at 60 FPS both externally and internally.
- Increasing the internal FPS limit will cause physics issues that progressively get worse the higher the cap is set; however, these are usually concerned with automated sequences (at 144 FPS for example, "Red Gate Bridge" initial QTE will lock the camera, but the event and the rest of the stage can be completed, "Guardian Rock" will have a similar issue but will prevent stage completion and at the end of "Metropolitan Highway" the last launch panel will break the stage. 360 FPS can potentially cause issues on "Lost Valley", "Egg Gate", "Vs. Infinite 1st", "Casino Forest" and "Network Terminal").[2]
- For better overall frame pacing and to mitigate stutters, it is heavily recommended to use the in-game v-sync with the FPS cap close to refresh rate but doing so may cause micro-stuttering (these will be directly related to the internal limit and thus will not be detected with frame rate counting tools). If encountered with this issue, increase the internal limit by 1-3 frames (alternatively, externally cap the FPS by 1-3 frames at the risk causing further issues with v-sync).[2]
