Essential improvements

Enable saving without Saviour Schnapps

You can only save if you own a rare and expensive potion (Saviour Schnapps) or by sleeping.
Due to the high rate of crashes being experienced[8] this is considered an essential improvement to prevent lost progress.
Use the Unlimited Saving mod
Manually disable Saviour Schnapps requirement[9]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\Data
  2. Open GameData.pak with 7-Zip or similar
  3. Go to GameData.pak\Libs\UI\UIActions\ and open MM_SaveGame.xml
  4. Search for "potion" and change the 2 lines <Inputs SaveType="2" OverwriteSaveId="-1" UsePotion="1" /> to <Inputs SaveType="2" OverwriteSaveId="-1" UsePotion="0" />

Unlock FPS during cutscenes

FPS during cutscenes is locked to 30FPS.[citation needed] The cutscenes are in-engine, meaning they should go as high as your setup is set, or can render to.
Add a configuration file to unlock the FPS when in fullscreen mode
  1. In-game, ensure the Fullscreen option is selected in the display settings
  2. Exit the game
  3. Make a new file called user.cfg in <path-to-game>
  4. Open the file in a text editor, and add the following lines, where sysMaxFPS is your maximum FPS:

r_Vsync = 0

sys_MaxFPS = 144

Increase FPS

Many users are experiencing significant FPS drops on setups above recommended specifications.
Allocate a higher heapsize to the game using launch options/arguments
  1. Right-click the game in Steam, and select **Properties**
  2. Select the Set launch options... button
    • If you have 16 GB of RAM, add the string -heapsize 2097152
    • If you have 8 GB of RAM, add the string -heapsize 1048576

Improve mipmap streaming

The game takes a long time to load texture mipmaps leading to blurry textures especially on characters.
Increase the game mipmap LOD value to prevent the game from constantly reloading the mipmaps from the HDD[10]
  1. Open the in-game console with ~
  2. Type r_TexturesStreamingMipBias -3
  3. Press Enter, then close the console with ~

Notes

This workaround might cause a 2-4 FPS loss.
