Field of view (FOV)

Modify config[3]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open P13Input.ini.
  3. Find [Engine.PlayerInput] and place the line Bindings=(Name="L",Command="fov 150") (adjust number for different FOV) and save.
  4. In-game, press L to adjust FOV.

High frame rate

Change frame rate smoothing[citation needed]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open P13Engine.ini.
  3. Search and change bSmoothFrameRate to FALSE or raise MaxSmoothedFrameRate value.
  4. Save file.
  5. Note that this can cause issues with cranks for elevators, prolonging the time you have to use it. Temporarily set it back to 60 FPS will fix this.
Using game launcher to change options resets changes made to config.
For more information, see the Unreal Engine 3 page.

Anisotropic filtering (AF)

Edit config file[citation needed]
