Video Settings
Settings.txt
To modify several graphics and resolution settings you will need to locate and open this file. It is located at:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\
Anisotropic Filtering
To enable anisotropic filtering, open settings.txt
before navigating to the following line:
anisotropic_filtering=0
Change this value to any number greater than 0 and less than 8 for varying degrees of anisotropic filtering.
Windowed Mode
Change the following line:
fullscreen=yes
to the following:
fullscreen=no
Borderless Fullscreen Windowed
Whilst this feature is not natively supported, a similar effect can be achieved by setting the game to windowed mode and setting a custom resolution. To do this, navigate to settings.txt
(see above for the file location). Open this file, and locate this line:
fullscreen=yes
Change it to the following:
fullscreen=no
Now locate the line dictating resolution:
size= { x=[Desired x-axis resolution value] y=[Desired y-axis resolution value] }
Set the values for x and y to your monitor resolution and the game will run in a borderless fullscreen windowed mode. Note some text-blurring may occur.
Console Commands

Issues and Fixes
Activation Code Length
If your activation code is too short for the code input box upon installation, fill the additiona spaces with the character 'X', e.g. for a code formatted as AAAAA-BBBBB-CCCC
you would input it as AAAA-ABBB-BBCC-CCXX-XXXX-XXXX
.
Graphics Card Stress/Overheating
This is a likely cause of a game crash if your system only just meets the minimum system requirements to run the game. With such crashes, usually your graphics card will be at fault. One way to reduce stress on your graphics card is to turn off some of the more system-intensive options. Try editing the settings.txt
file and locate the following line:
draw_trees=yes
Set this line to the following:
draw_trees=no
This will prevent the game from rendering trees and thus significantly reduce the amount of information your graphics card has to process, in turn reducing the overall load on your system.[1]
