Essential improvements

Skip intro videos

Edit FateEngine.ini[2]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open FateEngine.ini.
  3. Under [FullScreenMovie], edit the following lines by adding a semicolon before each line as follows.
; StartupMovies=Square_TitleScreen
; StartupMovies=Airtight_TitleScreen
; StartupMovies=UE3_Logo
; StartupMovies=ScaleFormParadeLogo
; StartupMovies=PhysXParadeLogo
; StartupMovies=AMDParadeLogo
Launch game with -nostartupmovies parameter[citation needed]

Improve Asset/Texture Streaming

Modify FateSystemSettings.ini[citation needed]
  1. Go to the configuration file location.
  2. Open FateSystemSettings.ini
  3. Add the following line to the end of every "TEXTUREGROUP_" Line except for Shadowmaps (Which is already set to 3. You can leave it if you want) and the bottom 6 at the end of this section of the .ini
,NumStreamedMips=0

Notes

This will increase VRAM usage substantially by several hundred MB or more, so keep that in mind.
There are total of 142 lines to modify. With Notepad++ you can use search and replace function with regular expression. Search (TEXTUREGROUP.(?!Shadowmap).*)(\)) and replace with \1, NumStreamedMips=0\2 and it'll replace all the lines except shadowmap ones.

Issues fixed

NPCs path incorrectly with an uncapped framerate

In some stages, NPCs can be distracted using the Poltergeist ability. If the framerate is uncapped, their pathing will break and they can walk out of bounds.
Cap the framerate
This can be done without external tools using the game's VSync option, which caps the framerate to 30. Using external software to cap the framerate to 60 should not trigger this bug either.

"Get Back to Joy" graveyard glitch

In the Graveyard stage when the "Get Back To Joy" objective appears, Joy will occasionally fail to spawn at the beginning of the level, and proceeding across the bridge will replay cutscenes from earlier in the stage.
Proceed anyway[4]
  1. Go to the bridge and ignore the two misplaced cutscenes.
  2. Cross the bridge to the end of the level and the correct cutscene will play.
The pause menu may still show the incorrect current objective, and as a result new objectives will not display in the pause menu.
