Graphics adjustment
Go to:
User/appdata/local/Shenmue3/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/GameUserSettings
You can edit settings such as:
[ScalabilityGroups] sg.ResolutionQuality=100.000000 sg.ViewDistanceQuality=0/1/2/3 sg.AntiAliasingQuality=0/1/2/3 sg.ShadowQuality=0/1/2/3 sg.PostProcessQuality=0/1/2/3 sg.TextureQuality=0/1/2/3 sg.EffectsQuality=0/1/2/3 sg.FoliageQuality=0/1/2/3
Each setting can be individually chosen as 0, 1, 2, or 3. 0 is the lowest quality while 3 is the highest.
Permanent INI changes
- Permanent INI changes can be made using Drogean's Custom INI kit.
- Instructions included.
- Download Link
This lets you create a mod for the game that reads a custom engine .ini
file you can put any console/config tweak into and have it read by the game in just a few clicks.
Outside of using the UE4 console enabler and inputting your commands on every startup, this is the only way to make them permanent.[6]
