INI Method
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.

Increase texture detail at larger distances (disable mipmapping)
Instructions[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
DishonoredEngine.ini .
- To disable mipmapping for world-textures (which should be most noticable), find the line
TEXTUREGROUP_World=(MinLODSize=256,MaxLODSize=2048,LODBias=0) and replace it with TEXTUREGROUP_World=(MinLODSize=256,MaxLODSize=2048,LODBias=0,NumStreamedMips=0) .
- Similarly, to disable mipmapping for any other texture group, simply append
NumStreamedMips=0 inside the parentheses, making sure to add the needed comma(s).
|
Stop bodies from disappearing
Increase Default Number of Bodies In Areas[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
DishonoredAI.ini .
- Modify the values of
m_CorpseAbsoluteMaximumCount and m_CorpseIdealMaximumCount as necessary (e.g. m_CorpseAbsoluteMaximumCount=1000 and m_CorpseIdealMaximumCount=500 ).

Game data
In-game general settings.

In-game resolution settings.
Use FOV Hack[10]
|
- Download Dishonored FOV Hack.
- Put
version.dll and fov.ini in <path-to-game>\Binaries\Win32\ .
- Edit
fov.ini to your preference.
- This method does not seem to work with Linux running Proton.
|
- If your game crashes performs this method, just delete
version.dll
and fov.ini
in <path-to-game>\Binaries\Win32\
Add FOV hotkey[11]
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
DishonoredInput.ini .
- Go down to the line
m_PCBindings=(Name="Zero",Command="GBA_Shortcut_9")
- Add a new line below it:
m_PCBindings=(Name="F4",Command="FOV 120")
- Change
120 to the FOV you want and save your changes.
- Press F4 during gameplay to use the new FOV.
Notes
- This method will break the zoom-in during cutscenes. Your FOV will not change.
|
Changing Anisotropic Filtering level[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
DishonoredEngine.ini .
- Change
MaxAnisotropy=4 to MaxAnisotropy=16
- Save your changes.
|
Change frame rate smoothing[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
DishonoredEngine.ini .
- Search and change
bSmoothFrameRate to FALSE or raise MaxSmoothedFrameRate value.
- Save file.
- For more information, see the Unreal Engine 3 page.
- Disabling frame rate smoothing can cause issues such as the player being stuck in tilt position or not being able to walk through doors. Raising the
MaxSmoothedFrameRate to different values (i.e. 146) appears to cause no issues.
|
Ambient Occlusion
HBAO+[12][13]
|
- This method only works on Nvidia graphics cards.
- Open the Dishonored Nvidia profile with Nvidia Profile Inspector.
- Change
Ambient Occlusion compatibility value to 0x0000002F .

Issues unresolved
The Knife of Dunwall: Crashing during the third act
The DLC appears to crash a lot for people in the third act, no solution.
Possible solution:
Crash during third act[citation needed]
|
- Go to the end of the act and talk to Billie Lurk.
- When Billie Lurk asks if you want to exit the level, say "No".
- Save the game.
- Go and talk to Billie Lurk again.
- Say "Yes" and exit the level.
|
The Knife of Dunwall: Low resolution textures on butchers
The game is using the low detail textures on butchers instead of the high detail textures.[17]
The Knife of Dunwall: Missing 2D image files
Generic placeholder images are replacing some 2D icons and images in-game.[18]
Game crash at startup
- Some users report that turning Steam Cloud off and on again solves the problem.
Game crash at startup[citation needed]
|
- Go to the save game data location.
- Delete
remotecache.vdf .
- Disable Steam Cloud (close settings window).
- Enable Steam Cloud (close settings window).
- Let Steam sync your saved games.
- Launch Dishonored.
|
Issues fixed
Screen turns white or very bright randomly during gameplay
Fix white/bright screen[citation needed]
|
- Right-click on Dishonored in the Steam client and click Properties.
- Uncheck Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game.
|
"First time setup" runs every time game is started
Instructions[citation needed]
|
Run the following from the command line: reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Valve\Steam\Apps\205100 /v PhysXRedist /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f .
|
Or simply run Steam as administrator and start the game. Accept all installation requests.
After closing and restarting the game without running as an administrator, the dialogs will be gone.
Texture pop-in when switching weapons
Instructions[citation needed]
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
DishonoredEngine.ini .
- Change the values of both
MipFadeInSpeed0 and MipFadeInSpeed1 to 0 .
|
- Please note that unless the high quality texture can be loaded right away by your computer, this can make the texture pop-in even more noticeable, since it only disables the fade that is meant to hide the transition from low to high quality texture.
Controller hotplugging does not work
Run the game as an administrator, as detailed here.
Game options cannot be saved or loaded when using a controller
The game forces you to pick either keyboard/mouse or controller when you first open the main menu. Everything works fine with keyboard and mouse; however, with a controller, while the settings can be changed, they will never be saved and the game will reload the default settings every time a save file is loaded.
Run the game executable as an administrator once[citation needed]
|
- Go to
<path-to-game>\Binaries\Win32\ .
- Right click
Dishonored.exe and hit "Run as Administrator".
- Steam should install some DirectX files, then the game will launch.
- Use a controller to enter the main menu and set your options. When you've changed your options and backed out, it should save them.
- From now on you should be able to save and load your options with a controller, even without running the game as adminstrator.

"High Overseer Campbell" meeting chamber bug
This gate to the right behind Overseer Martin will trigger the meeting chamber bug if opened.
- Opening the gate behind Overseer Martin during the "High Overseer Campbell" mission will trigger a bug with the main objective: High Overseer Campbell and Captain Curnow cut off their conversation too early, and everyone in the waiting area becomes alerted and rushes into the meeting chamber. The mission can still be completed, but several ways of solving the main objective are automatically failed.[19][20]
Avoid opening the bugged gate[19][20]
|
Complete the meeting chamber portion of the mission without opening the gate behind Overseer Martin (use climbing, Blink, or other methods to get inside without opening this particular gate).
