Audio "performance mode"
- Greatly reduces the amount of CPU time spent on audio, freeing it up for the game itself to use (which can help reduce stutter and improve framerates)
- Normally the audio system may use up to 12% of CPU time,[3] "performance mode" can reduce this to lower than 1%.
- May stop the game from detecting audio devices being added/removed, requiring the game to restart to make use of them.
Change audio mode in audio.ini
|
- Go to the configuration file(s) location.
- Open
audio.ini .
- Change
AudioMode=0 to AudioMode=1
- Save the file.
- May no longer be required as of Patch 2.

HD Font
- This mod replaces the main font used in the game for an edited, higher-resolution (400%), font. It mainly changes dialogue and menu text.
