Anisotropic filtering (AF)[edit]

  2. Open options.txt.
  3. Locate setOption(renderingModule, "PostProcessAntiAliasing", true) and change to false.

High frame rate[edit]

Remove frame rate cap[citation needed]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open options.txt.
  3. Locate setOption(gameBaseApplicationModule, "FPSCapEnabled", true) and change to false.
  4. In the Trine 3 launcher, it may be necessary to change the refresh rate from "Automatic" to the actual number in hertz (windowed also works).

Disable bloom[edit]

Disable bloom[citation needed]
