Key points

- Does not include any of the gameplay changes nor the extra content of the PS3 version.
General information
- Steam Community Discussions
Availability

Game data
Configuration file(s) location
- The game uses three separate files for saved data:
prefs.aitd
saves all control/audio/graphical settings, res.aitd
saves resolution settings, and save.aitd
for game progress.

- Certain keys are unbindable when using the keyboard. The mouse buttons cannot be rebound, Delete cannot be bound to anything, and the default keys for vehicle/misc controls cannot be bound to on-foot controls unless they are unbound from vehicle/misc controls first. One consequence of this is that vehicle and on-foot controls must use separate buttons (i.e. if you walk with the arrow keys you cannot also drive with them) unless you use the default WASD keys.

ResolutionWidth = 1920

PrevResolutionWidth = 1920
PrevResolutionHeight = 1080
- Save the file and enjoy the game.

Game crashes when accessing settings on Windows 7 or updated Windows 10
- In Windows 7 and earlier (as well as on a fully updated version of Windows 10), attempting to access display settings (i.e. to change the resolution) causes the game to crash on video cards with more than approximately 1 GB of VRAM.[2]
Use d3d9 wrapper fix[3]
|
- Download this file and extract it.
- Copy
d3d9.dll and d3d9.ini to <path-to-game> .
- Edit settings in
d3d9.ini if needed.
|
Force highest graphical settings
|
- Download these configuration files.
- Replace
prefs.aitd with the one downloaded.
|
Use GeDoSaTo
|
- Download and launch GeDoSaTo.
- Click "User Whitelist" and type in alone on a fresh line then save.
- Click "Edit Settings" button, find renderResolution line and add your screen resolution, for example it can look like this: renderResolution 3840x2160@60
- Find presentInterval line and change it to 1.
- Find overrideWidth and overrideHeight lines and change them to overrideWidth 1280 and overrideHeight 720
- Find forceBorderlessFullscreen line and change it from false to true.
