Anisotropic filtering (AF)
- There is no separate anisotropic filtering slider available in the options. Anisotropic filtering is determined by the overall graphics preset, labeled "Graphics Quality" in the menu. When modifying individual graphics options to create a custom "Graphics Quality" configuration, the anisotropic filtering setting is determined by the last selected preset, regardless of what individual graphics options are selected.
- Forcing anisotropic filtering through video driver causes texture shimmering.

Supersampling (SSAA)
- There is a maximum resolution scale of 100% possible via the game's graphics options. But this option can be raised to up to 200% effectively resulting in double the pixel count per axis.
- The value can be reset anytime in the graphics menu, back to 100%.
- The result is an extremely sharp picture with far better shading of textures, grass, pixel shaders and geometry edges.
- At
2.0
the performance cost is very big. Values over2.0
may lead to crashing.

Issues unresolved
Inability to complete Trespasser DLC
The Anchor Discharge ability required to finish the Trespasser DLC may get assigned to a follower, not the inquisitor, making it unusable.[8][9][10]
Use a mod to be able to use Anchor Discharge by the inquisitor[11] |
