Use the `-dx11` or `-dx12` command line arguments to launch the game directly using the desired DirectX version^{[citation needed]}

Prevent DLSS from automatically enabling itself during gameplay

Instructions

Start the game normally and configure your Graphics settings as needed.
Exit the game and make a backup copy of renderer.ini
Open renderer.ini with a text editor and remove the two lines with "m_iRenderResolutionX" and ""m_iRenderResolutionY".
Set the numeric value of "m_eDLSSQuality" = 0.
Save renderer.ini.
Start the game and the values you removed from renderer.ini should now match the values of the resolution you selected in step 1 (same as your monitor resolution).

Tested with Ryzen 9 5900x and RTX 4090 on Windows 10 Pro.

Widescreen resolution
Multi-monitor		Use this unofficial comprehensive patch or this PCGW community patcher.
Ultra-widescreen		Hor+ scaling over 16:9, pillarboxed FMVs, menu and loading screens.^[13] Locked at a max of 21:9 by default, streched after that: use this unofficial comprehensive patch (which also fixes other UW issues) or this PCGW community patcher for higher aspect ratios.
4K Ultra HD		^[14]
Field of view (FOV)		Use this unofficial comprehensive patch and change `m_fFOVMultiplier` in the `renderer.ini` config to your preferred value. Alternative, use this cheat table.
Windowed
Borderless fullscreen windowed
Anisotropic filtering (AF)		As Texture Filtering. Low, Medium, High.
Anti-aliasing (AA)		TAA^[15] always on^[16] unless forced off with this cheat table. Up to 4x MSAA. DLAA can be added to the game by using an unofficial comprehensive patch.
High-fidelity upscaling		DLSS 2.1 Use this unofficial comprehensive patch to take advantage of more recent DLSS 3.1.1 implementation.
Vertical sync (Vsync)		Always enabled in menus.^[17] Double buffered in fullscreen mode under DX11.^{[citation needed]}
60 FPS and 120+ FPS		Capped at 240 FPS. See High frame rate for higher values.
High dynamic range display (HDR)		Native HDR can be achieved via this unofficial comprehensive patch.
Ray tracing (RT)		Limited to the DirectX 12 mode. Reflections, transparent reflections, diffuse lighting, contact shadows, and debris. While the base game's denoiser is fairly weak, the ray count can be increased to 3x via unofficial comprehensive patch resulting in a much less noisy image.
Color blind mode		Enemy health bar color choice between orange and yellow.

High frame rate

Modify with Cheat Engine^[18]

Install Cheat Engine and attach the game process.
While the main exe is selected in the memory search range, search for 240 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 only value set exactly at 240 and change it to the desired value. 0 will cause a crash.
Save the cheat table.

Temporary solution. The saved cheat table must be used and its values changed with each launch.

Modify with hex editor^[19]

Open Control_DX11.exe or Control_DX12.exe with a hex editor such as HxD.
Replace 00 00 00 00 00 00 6E 40 (240 FPS) with one of the following,
- 00 00 00 00 00 80 76 40 for 360 FPS.
- 00 00 00 00 00 00 7E 40 for 480 FPS.
- 00 00 00 00 00 80 86 40 for 720 FPS.
- 00 00 00 00 00 00 8E 40 for 960 FPS.

Permanent solution. Only needs to be applied once.

If the desired value is not listed above, apply it using the Cheat Engine method above. Right-Click one the changed values and select "Browse this memory region" to view the hex values.

Issues unresolved

Stuttering when opening the map

Accessing the map after using the mouse to interact with inventory items such as loadout entries or collectibles may result in stuttering.^[33] Using the keyboard or a gamepad does not trigger this effect.^[33]

Open and close the pause menu with `Esc` to stop the stuttering until the inventory is accessed again.^[34]

Anchor Boss Fight Crash

The game crashes during the anchor boss fight. The issue seems to be related to CPU cores.

Don't play the side mission containing the boss fight.

Potential Workaround^[35]^{[Note 4]}

Launch the game
Open the Details tab of the Task Manager
Right-click Control_DX12.exe or Control_DX11.exe, depending on what you're running
Click "Set Affinity"
Select only CPU 0, CPU 1, CPU 2, and CPU 3

Rainbow-colored lighting bug/glitch

Sometimes you may encounter a lighting glitch that has very bright rainbow-like colors in places that shouldn't have them.

Restart your game

Issues fixed

Hiss voices are in a different language

The Hiss incantation language spoken by the floating bodies is tied to that of the operating system, not the in-game audio settings.^[34]

Change Windows regional format^[34]

On Windows 10, open Settings > Time & Language > Region.
Change the Regional format to a supported audio language - for example, English or German.

The change is also reflected in the epilepsy warning shown at the start of the game.

No choice of DirectX 11 or 12

Use the `-dx11` or `-dx12` command line arguments to launch the game in the desired DirectX version.^[36]

Blurry textures

High-resolution textures may not load immediately, resulting in signs, posters, portraits, and other objects briefly appearing blurry when nearby.

New "Max" texture quality setting
Download and apply this unofficial comprehensive patch. Select "Max" as the Textures Quality in the game graphic settings menu.

Mod in more aggressive texture streaming^[37]

Applies optional config that increases the texture pool by 1 GB and loads high-resolution textures sooner.

Download Control Blurry Textures Fix mod.
Extract the files to <path-to-game>.
Remove <path-to-game>\data\globaldb\tweakables.xml.
Rename <path-to-game>\data\globaldb\tweakables_high_quality.xml to tweakables.xml.

Note:

This fix may only work on the Ultimate edition of the game.^[38]

Ray tracing options unavailable

Update to Windows 10 version 1803 or higher^[39]^[40]

In-game Videos stuttering and tearing on Nvidia GPUs

Turn off Resizable BAR using Nvidia Profile Inspector^[41]

Download and open Nvidia Profile Inspector.
On the top left side, using the 'Profiles' drop-down menu, type in or navigate to and select 'Control'.
Scroll down to the fifth section titled '5 - Common' and find 'rBAR - Feature', change this feature from 'Enabled' to 'Disabled'.
On the top right side, click 'Apply changes'.

Note:

This fix will revert to 'Enabled' after a driver update

Notes

↑ Discouraged to buy this: is more expensive than the Ultimate Edition and it likely misses several patches for the Ultimate Edition.^[5]
↑ Control Content Steam depot contains the Ultimate Edition and and the Control Standard Edition Content Steam depot contains the Standard Edition. Two separate Steam depots also available that contain the expansions. Can be bought for the Standard Edition through Humble Bundle, but also automatically owned when people buy the Ultimate Edition.^[6]^[7]
↑ ^3.0 ^3.1
Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Games with Steam Cloud support may also store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/870780/.
- Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (870780) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
↑ Between muting the game and enabling it to run on a toaster, this was the only thing that worked perfectly for me, running Windows 11 on a Ryzen 5 7600.
