General options.

Template:Video settings

Field of view (FOV)

Set in Game.cfg^{[citation needed]}
Go to the configuration file location. Open `Game.cfg` with a text editor. Find the line cameraFOV = 65 and set it to your desired value.

Anti-aliasing (AA)

Set in Game.cfg^{[citation needed]}
Go to the configuration file location. Open `Game.cfg` with a text editor. Find the line screenAntialiasing = 0 and set it to your desired value (2-16).

Vertical sync (Vsync)

Set in Game.cfg^{[citation needed]}

Go to the configuration file location.
Open Game.cfg with a text editor.
Find the line screenVerticalSync = 1 and set it to one of the values:

0 = V-sync off
1 = V-sync on
2 = double V-sync (half the refresh rate)
3 = triple V-sync (a third of the refresh rate)
4 = quadruple V-sync (a quarter of the refresh rate)

Anisotropic filtering (AF)

Set in Game.cfg^{[citation needed]}
Go to the configuration file location. Open `Game.cfg` with a text editor. Find the line filterMode = 3 and set it to 4 to enable anisotropic filtering. Image quality can be further enhanced by forcing a specific filtering level in video card's Control Panel.
