Set custom resolution

Multi-monitor screenshot showcasing bad HUD.^[1]

Coffee Stain Studios have announced that they will not actively support multiple monitors.^[2]

The game's HUD does not render well on multiple-monitor resolutions.

Set resolution^{[citation needed]}

Go to the configuration file(s) location.
Open SanctumEngine.ini.
Locate any entry for ResX= and change it to your horizontal resolution (e.g., ResX=1920).
Locate any entry for ResY= and change it to your vertical resolution (e.g., ResY=1080).
Locate the entry AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainXFOV and replace it with:
```
AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV
```
Save your changes.

Anisotropic filtering (AF)

Modifying AF^{[citation needed]}
Go to `<path-to-game>\Engine\Config\` Edit `BaseEngine.ini`. Go to the `[SystemSettings]` section. Set `MaxAnisotropy=` to the desired value.

Anti-aliasing (AA)

Forcing AA^[3]

Using the following tweak makes the game client prone to graphics artifacts and/or crashing.

Go to <path-to-game>\Engine\Config\
Edit BaseEngine.ini using Notepad. Navigate to the [SystemSettings] section.
Modify the entry bAllowD3D9MSAA=False to show bAllowD3D9MSAA=True
Save the file.
