Features
Display
Monitor - Picks the monitor the game shows on, for Fullscreen and Borderless (and where Windowed opens). Lists every connected monitor by its Windows number and desktop resolution.
Display Mode - Switch between Fullscreen, Borderless and Windowed.
Resolution - Lists every mode your monitor reports and defaults to your desktop resolution, replacing the original 640x480 resolution.
Render Resolution - Renders the game at 20% to 200% of the output resolution, allowing supersampling or downscaling independent of the window size.
Field of View - Sets the horizontal field of view during gameplay from 45 to 140 degrees, with 75 being the game's default. Cutscenes, other cameras and the zoom keep the original.
Viewmodel Field of View - Adjusts the first-person weapon and arms field of view, from 45 to 140 degrees, with 75 being the game's default.
Max Frame Rate - Caps the frame rate to your monitor's refresh rate or a custom value, or removes the cap entirely, replacing the Xbox's 30 FPS limiter.
V-Sync - Reduces screen tearing.
HDR Output - Enables HDR10 output on displays with Windows HDR turned on, detected automatically. Highlights extend up to the display's peak brightness.
FPS Counter - Displays the frame rate on screen.
FMV Scale - Choose between Fill, which makes the FMVs fill widescreen displays, and 4:3, which shows them in a 4:3 frame as on the original Xbox.
Colour Blind Mode - Adjusts the colours for Protanopia, Deuteranopia or Tritanopia.
Graphics
Ambient Occlusion - Adds screen space ambient occlusion, creating soft contact shadows where surfaces meet. Choose between SSAO and GTAO.
Multisample Antialiasing (MSAA) - Enables 2x, 4x or 8x MSAA to smooth jagged edges while preserving a sharp image. MSAA does not smooth alpha-tested edges such as fences and foliage.
Subpixel Morphological Antialiasing (SMAA) - Enables SMAA to smooth jagged edges across the whole frame with a softer image. SMAA also smooths alpha-tested edges such as fences and foliage, and can be combined with MSAA.
Anisotropic Filtering - Forces the selected anisotropic filtering level on all textures.
Textures
Texture Replacement - Replaces the game's textures with the .dds or .png images in the textures\replacement folder beside the exe.
Texture Dumping - Saves every texture the game uses into the textures\dumps folder beside the exe as you play.
Dump Format - Choose between PNG or DDS, which keeps the original compression and mipmaps.
Input
Mouse and Keyboard - Full keyboard and mouse support with raw input.
Controller - Controller with SDL3 support.
Gyro Aiming - Adds gyro aiming for controllers with motion sensors, such as the DualSense, DualShock 4 and Switch Pro Controller. Works together with the right stick.
General
Skip Intro - Skips the intro logos and the intro movie.
Pause On Focus Loss - Pauses the game and its sound while the window is in the background or minimized.
Audio Output - Choose between Automatic, which follows your speakers, Mono, 2.0 Stereo and 5.1 Surround. 5.1 Surround places sounds behind you on the rear speakers.
Miscellaneous
Boot Splash - Place a splash.png (or .bmp) beside the exe to display a splash screen at launch.
Custom Menu Cursor - Place a cursor.png (or cursor.dds) beside the exe to replace the Windows arrow in the game's menus.
