Graphics feature State Notes
Widescreen resolution
Supports Window modes as low as "640x360", but similar GPU usage between 360p and 1080p doesn't indicate the game running at that resolution.
Multi-monitor
Ultra-widescreen
4K Ultra HD
Supported through the "3840x2160 4K Native" option, every option below "3840x2160 4K Native" upscales from 1920x1080.
Field of view (FOV)
Windowed
Borderless fullscreen windowed
In Exclusive Fullscreen mode, the game runs at the current screen resolution inside Windows as opposed to the chosen in-game resolution
Anisotropic filtering (AF)
Anti-aliasing (AA)
Uses a method of Post-Processing Anti-Aliasing through the "Post-Processing Effect" setting
Vertical sync (Vsync)
See the glossary page for potential workarounds.
60 FPS
Framerate is capped at 63-64FPS, which may cause screen-tearing on 60hz screens, and uneven frames on higher refresh rates.
120+ FPS
See High frame rate.
High dynamic range display (HDR)

High frame rate

Raise the framerate cap to 240 FPS by hex editing[1]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>\resource\bin\
  2. Open DragonStarVarnir.exe in a hex editor such as HxD.
  3. Search for 41 55 55 85 41 and replace with 41 71 1C 87 40.
When finding and replacing these hex values, make sure that the find/replace tools are using the "Hex-values" mode.
Alternatively, the hex value can be changed to use a custom framerate cap by dividing or multiplying the desired framerate cap by 60 (depending if the number is larger or smaller than 60), and then dividing 16.66666603 by the result of that calculation. For example, a 30 FPS cap hypothetically can be achieved by 30 / 60 = 0.5, taking the result of that calculation to do "16.66666603 / 0.5 = 33.33333206", then using HxD's replace tool's floating point number utility to find and replace the 16.66666603 value with 33.33333206.
Raise the framerate cap to 240 FPS by patching DragonStarVarnir.exe[2]
  1. Download the FPS Uncap Patch.
  2. Unpack the archive (using the password mentioned in the file description)
  3. Launch the patcher, and change the target file to <path-to-game>\resource\bin\DragonStarVarnir.exe, before pressing "Start"

Notes

  1. When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/1062040/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (1062040) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
