Only splash screens are entirely unlocked. Game is capped at 200 FPS. See Frame rate (FPS) for higher values. By default, as the frame rate increases, mouse sensitivity and acceleration is slightly reduced. Enable Direct Aiming (which disables mouse smoothing and acceleration) to circumvent this.[5] |

Method 1 - Change Hex Values
- Install a hex editor such as HxD and select the main executable.
- Change
00 00 00 40 E1 7A 74 3F (200 FPS) to the following,
37 11 11 11 11 11 71 3F for 240 FPS.
17 6C C1 16 6C C1 66 3F for 360 FPS.
C4 10 11 11 11 11 61 3F for 480 FPS.
FC A9 F1 D2 4D 62 60 3F for 500 FPS.
AB 11 11 11 11 11 51 3F for 960 FPS.
FC A9 F1 D2 4D 62 50 3F for 1000 FPS.
E4 57 F9 BB 8E 37 1A 3F for 9999 FPS.
Method 2 - Use cheat engine
- Use this method if the one above doesn't work.
- This process will have to be repeated with each launch.
- Download and run Cheat Engine
- Launch the game then minimize it. Open the 'Alan Wake Remastered' process in Cheat Engine.
- Change Memory Scan Options to Game_f_x64_EOS.exe.
- Search for the value
0.005000000 as a double in rounded (extreme) mode, while Executable, Writable and CopyOnWrite is set to Don't Care and the Fast Scan option disabled.
- Select the single value that appears and replace it with (1/Desired FPS).

- 2560x1440 was not available when the game was launched on a 1920x1080 desktop despite being the native resolution. This option only became selectable when desktop resolution was set to 1440p.

- Resolution scaling became disabled when TAA was disabled. The engine uses MSAA for vegetation rendering, which is forced on in all versions of the game (even on the original PC release); disabling it leads to transparent and heavily aliased grass. DLSS version specified in the nvngx_dlss.dll properties menu.

- At 144 Hz, frame rate drops cause a consistent 144 FPS to drop to a consistent 72 FPS.

- Similar behavior to the original version. The official FAQ falsely claims both versions as uncapped. If direct aiming is disabled, mouse sensitivity and acceleration will still be reduced at very high frame rates; however, unlike the original, the difference is rather small and the game remains very playable at all times.

- Both methods have been tested. Although it is possible to completely remove the FPS cap, doing so may cause soft locks and missing checkpoints.
