Version differences

The German edition (aka LV release) contains only the German language and has content differences (e.g. no swastikas). This version is now hidden from the storefronts, but is still available. The original uncut version listed as "internal version" is also available. This version does not support the German language.

The Panzerhund Edition does not include the game or any in-game extras.^[3]

Monetization

Type	Notes
One-time game purchase	The game requires an upfront purchase to access.
Subscription gaming service	Available via Xbox Game Pass for PC.

Essential improvements

Restore cache files

The texture cache folder is not created by the game, so you need to create it manually to make the cache functional.

This can fix some stuttering in the game.

Manually create texture cache folder^[4]
Go to `%LOCALAPPDATA%` and create a folder named `MachineGames`. Go into that folder and create a folder named `Wolfenstein The New Order`. The game will now correctly store the texture cache between sessions. Notes The game creates two files there, one of which is 1 GB in size. This file is not deleted after uninstalling the game and has to be deleted manually. Normal Windows shortcuts do not work to relocate the `MachineGames` folder or the `Wolfenstein The New Order` folder to another drive. If your Windows OS supports it, an NTFS junction point (`mklink /J <link> <target>`) will allow redirecting the folder to a different location. Command line option `+fs_cachepath "your_cache_path_here"` will redirect the cache folder. Command cannot be inserted in the console during running of the game. It has to be inserted as parameter for `WolfNewOrder_x64.exe`. Slow HDD can prevent from achieving high FPS when texture cache is collected in this folder. Consider placing the cache (and the game itself) on a SSD.

Slow HDD can prevent from achieving high FPS when texture cache is collected in this folder. Consider placing the cache (and the game itself) on a SSD.

Skip intro videos

Use `+com_skipIntroVideo 1` command line argument^[5]

Rename the video files
Go to `<path-to-game>\base\bink`. Rename `loadvideo_pc_xboxone.bik` and `menu_credits.bik`.

Graphics feature	WSGF	Notes
Widescreen resolution
Multi-monitor		Use Flawless Widescreen.^[7]
Ultra-widescreen		Some U.I. elements (i.e. tutorial boxes) will improperly linger at the edges of the screen after being closed.
4K Ultra HD
Field of view (FOV)	From 80° to 100° horizontal. 4:3 base. See Field of view (FOV).
Windowed
Borderless fullscreen windowed	Listed as Fullscreen Windowed.
Anisotropic filtering (AF)	Always at 4x.^[8]
Anti-aliasing (AA)	See Anti-aliasing (AA).
Vertical sync (Vsync)	See Vertical sync (Vsync).
60 FPS	Cutscenes are capped at 30 FPS.
120+ FPS	Frame rate is capped at 60 FPS. See High frame rate.
High dynamic range display (HDR)	See the glossary page for potential alternatives.

Field of view (FOV)

id5 Tweaker increases the upper limit of the FOV to 200 and allows changing viewmodel FOV as well.

It is recommended to keep g_fov at a maximum of 120 for a wide field of view without fish-eye effect at 16:9 resolutions and hands_fovscale at 1.0 to avoid making the character hands and weapons disproportinate to the screen or broken in certain situations.

Adjust FOV values^[9]
Install id5 Tweaker. To use with the Epic Games version use the Epic specific dinput8.dll. Edit `id5Tweaker.ini`. Find `;g_fov 100` and `;hands_fovscale 1.0`. Remove the semicolons and set the desired values.

Anti-aliasing (AA)

Tested up to 16x MSAA. Can drastically reduce performance and could cause some graphical issues with depth of field, shadows and screen-space reflections^[10]

This has no effect on many edges in the game but will help reduce jaggies on geometry edges.^[11]

Enable MSAA Anti-aliasing
Install id5 Tweaker. To use with the Epic Games version use the Epic specific dinput8.dll. Edit `id5Tweaker.ini`. Find `;r_multisamples 2`. Remove the semicolon and set the desired value.

Vertical sync (Vsync)

The in-game Vsync option may not work correctly if used in conjunction with G-sync, and/or if using the unofficial high frame rate mod.

Alternative Vsync^{[citation needed]}
Go to the Video Options menu, then set Vsync to Off. Open the console, and enter `r_swapInterval 1` Notes Slightly less intensive than the default Vsync setting. Might cause the audio to desync during cutscenes.

Alternative Vsync^{[citation needed]}

Go to the Video Options menu, then set Vsync to Off.
Open the console, and enter r_swapInterval 1

Notes

Slightly less intensive than the default Vsync setting.

Might cause the audio to desync during cutscenes.

High frame rate

Increase FPS cap^[9]

Install id5 Tweaker. To use with the Epic Games version use the Epic specific dinput8.dll.
Go to your Launch Options and add "+toggle com_synctotime" (This will unlock the FPS cap of the Default state of the game)
Edit id5Tweaker.ini.
Find ;id5Tweaker_SetFpsLimit 140.
Remove the semicolon and set the desired value.
Keep in mind this "SetFpsLimit" value determines at what fps will be the normal game speed, so make sure you don't run the game at a higher or lower fps than the value you put in because that means that the game will either run slower or faster than intended

Notes

Increasing the FPS cap causes some unintended side effects:

the dialogue lines from the voice actors can be cut off because the game is too dependent on the frame rate
In the early game, there is a softlock with the bathroom mini cutscene at 120 FPS and above, reducing to 90 FPS fixes the issue
In Chapter 2, the two drones that are released from the truck that crashes through the gate get ejected faster than normal and can get stuck in the ground, making them unkillable
In Chapter 16, you will be unable to move forward during the underwater segment
Uneven frame-pacing on G-Sync and FreeSync enabled displays
Keyboard and mouse input may stop working after some cutscenes
The 'maxed out' ammo indicator may flash continuously
Possible physics bugs when killing some enemies
Possible stuttering during pre-rendered cutscenes
Sped up drones
The robot fought just before the final boss cannot be killed because its stunned animation is too fast

id5 Tweaker allows the uncapped framerate to be toggled on and off in-game (default key is the numpad "*").

Possible solution for Epic version^[12]

Post-processing

Disable depth of field^[5]^[9]
Launch the game. Press `Ctrl`+`~` to open the console. Enter `cvaradd r_postprocessdofmode -1`. Press `Ctrl`+`~` again to close the console. or Install id5 Tweaker. To use with the Epic Games version use the Epic specific dinput8.dll. Edit `id5Tweaker.ini`. Find `;r_postprocessdofmode -1` and remove the semicolon.

Open the console with Ctrl+~ or Ctrl+\ or Ctrl+^.
Use bind "key" "_action" in order to bind your keys.

Notes

Use listBinds in order to view a list of actions every key is set to.

Binding keys by editing configuration files^[13]
Go to the configuration file(s) location. Edit `wolfConfig.cfg`. Search/replace "hidden duplicate" bindings such as `"_use"` Alternatively, and in case the above doesn't work, open the console (ctrl+`) and type: bindset 4 <enter> bind e "_moveforward" <enter> Notes This is useful for altering WSAD => EDSF layouts, as the action to exit the submarine (in the appropriate level) is bound to the `"_use"` action.

Issues fixed

Vertical sync disables itself intermittently

Force Vsync and triple buffering^[9]
Disable in-game vertical sync. Force Vsync. See Force Vsync for instructions.

"Wolfenstein is not responding" crash

The game may crash soon after starting when using outdated graphics card drivers.

Install recommended graphics card drivers^[15]^[16]
Update your graphics card drivers: Nvidia GeForce 335.23 or newer AMD: Catalyst 14.4 or newer Start the game again.

Game crashes to desktop on random intervals on AMD graphics cards

There is an issue where Catalyst AI causes the crashes. In older drivers this could be turned off in the software, but now it must be done manually.

Unknown if this issue has been fixed by AMD graphics driver updates.

Disable Catalyst AI^[17]
Go to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\ATI\ACE`. Back up `Profiles.xml`. Open `Profiles.xml` with a text editor. Search for the Catalyst AI entries and change the value to Disable. There are two entries in the file. Save the file and restart the computer. Notes If the game continues to crash, exit out of Raptr and AMD Gaming Evolved.

Save the file and restart the computer.

Notes

If the game continues to crash, exit out of Raptr and AMD Gaming Evolved.

Displayed game exceeds range of visibility on the screen

Disable DPI scaling in Windows
Go to display settings (RMB on desktop) In field "Change the size of text, apps and other items" set parameter to 100% Now game works/scales properly in QHD resolution.

Major FPS issues on AMD cards

The AMD's OpenGL driver is notorious for low performance.
Since 22.7.1 driver on Polaris and newer architectures, the Old Blood received a major FPS increase, while New Order still works poorly.

-*VIRTUAL TEXTURE COMPRESSION: ENABLED (or disabled on non_Nvidia GPU, and while not exceeding VRAM)

-*SHADOW RESOLUTION: 2048
-*DISPLAY MODE: borderless windowed mode (posible tearing; on full screen too). To turn on game mode, you need to set windowed mode temporarily.
-*Set jobs_numthreads to 1 (for low end CPUs; this needs to be turned on in-game console, or wolfconfig with it turned to read only, or in the shortcut (+jobs_numthreads 1). Set to 0 or 2 (default) in case of inconvenient minifreezes..

Set this to 16384 if you have a modern GPU with about 3 GB of RAM, or to 4096 if you have less than 1 GB (and in some cases less than 1.5 GB) of RAM and/or an older GPU. <ref>https://rage.fandom.com/wiki/Tweaks#A_few_useful_examples</ref> Bare minimum for vt_pageImageSizeUnique is 4096 (below that values, there are blurry textures in chapter Wolfenstein Keep). All rest vt_pageImageSize* CVars can be set to even 256.
-*If FPS issues still persist you may want to lower or disable Anti-Aliasing and/or Screen Space Reflections and/or lower your resolution to FHD since higher can have serious impact on the performance on older GPUs.

-{{ii}} Additionaly download [https://bitsum.com/get-lasso-pro/ Process Lasso], press CTR+A to mark all processes, and set priority class and I/O priority to the lowest (besides the game process) - for weak CPUs and stuttering in open areas. In some cases, changing only priorities of the game executable will give better effect.
-{{ii}} Additionally you may want to change affinity, and exclude core 0. There is no FPS drop using 3 cores instead of 4 cores on C2Q. But if you use set external [https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Wolfenstein:_The_New_Order#Restore_cache_files cache] location, CPU0 disabled can decrease performance during big shootouts.
