In-game video settings.

Graphics feature	State	Notes
Widescreen resolution		Stretches from 4:3. See Widescreen resolution.
Multi-monitor
Ultra-widescreen
4K Ultra HD		Stretches from 4:3. See Widescreen resolution.
Field of view (FOV)
Windowed		See the glossary page for potential workarounds.
Borderless fullscreen windowed		See the glossary page for potential workarounds.
Anisotropic filtering (AF)		Use dgVoodoo.
Anti-aliasing (AA)		Use dgVoodoo.
Vertical sync (Vsync)		Always enabled.
60 FPS and 120+ FPS
High dynamic range display (HDR)		See the glossary page for potential alternatives.

Even though there are registry entries and an ingame option to change Anti-Aliasing, they do not do anything.

Using a non 4:3 resolution will cause stretching.

Widescreen resolutions cannot be set in-game. You must do it through the Registry.

Make sure you use decimal numbers in Registry instead of hexadecimal ones when changing values.

Set video mode via Registry
Go to `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\City Interactive\tt_en\V4D Direct3D Renderer`. Change `Width` and `Height` to the desired resolution, `ColorBits` to the bit depth to use, and `Frequency` to use a custom refresh frequency (`0` for default).
