Options not available in the settings menu

It's possible to achieve higher visual fidelity than "Ultra quality" by modifying the game settings file directly. The following changes will have a drastic negative impact on your framerate, but will eliminate rocks and foliage magically appearing a few meters away from you. For a more detailed explanation of these settings and pictures, see this old but still relevant post: Force good LOD, Draw distance

Two steps to apply these changes (close the game first):

  1. Open Notepad, then open this file: %LOCALAPPDATA%\FactoryGame\Saved\Config\Windows\Engine.ini
  2. Add (or replace if you've already done this) the following to the bottom of the file then save it:
[SystemSettings]
r.TemporalAACurrentFrameWeight=0
r.TemporalAASamples=32
r.PostProcessAAQuality=5
r.ToneMapper.Sharpen=1
r.ViewDistanceScale=5
r.Shadow.MinResolution=256
r.Shadow.DistanceScale=5
foliage.LODDistanceScale=2
foliage.DitheredLOD=5
r.MaxAnisotropy=16

You've done the change right if your file looks similar to this when you're done: picture of modified Engine.ini

it is also possible to enter the lines listed above into the in-game console. Please note that when using this method the effects of the command aren't permanent and will disappear when the game is restarted.

    • It can now be selected under Options > Video > Upscaling Method

    • Changed the default keybinding for Saving Hologram to Hotbar to be unbound/empty

      • You can select between TSR, DLSS or XeSS under this drop down when your hardware supports it
  • Patch 0.8.0.5
    • Removed the legacy option for “Enable Gamepad Input” from the “Controls” submenu and removed leftover keybinds
      • To elaborate further on this change, This option did NOT mean that we had gamepad support, this has never been the case, it was some legacy leftover inputs from default UE4, we intentionally left those in as at the time, some players were using them alongside the custom controller configs on Steam to create controller layouts for the game.
        • In UE5, this option does nothing as a result of the Input System overhaul, there also were some leftover keybindings, I.E. Right Thumbstick look, which was not properly set up and would cause issues, so this would actually get in the way of anyone who is trying to properly set up a controller config via Steam or any other third party application.
        • Now these leftover inputs have been removed, so now you should be able to properly set up a custom controller configuration without any issues.
        • Existing custom controller configs will most likely need to be updated when moving from Update 7 to Update 8, but this was already the case, now it will just be smoother when trying to update these configs as there will be no leftover inputs that get in the way.
  • Patch 0.8.0.4
    • Fixed the “Enable Advanced Game Settings” checkbox still showing up on the Loading Menu even if the save already had Advanced Game Settings enabled
    • Fixed Advanced Game Settings being checked for all saves belonging to a session when checking it only in one save from the session, now it’s individual instead of applying to all
    • Fixed the Max FPS option not allowing to set a custom value from the number properly and always displaying 0
  • Patch 0.8.0.1
    • Removed "Cinematic" Global Illumination preset due to the fact that VRAM does not get flushed correctly, which would lead to severe performance loss until the game is restarted.
    • Renamed TSR "Insanity" Preset to "No downscaling" and added Tooltips clarifying their purpose
      • Performance (Performance over quality, Some rendering artifacts)
      • Balanced (Performance and quality focused)
      • Quality (Quality Focused)
      • No Downscaling (Only Anti aliasing, not recommended!)
    • Potentially fixed a crash that would happen when opening the keybinds menu

  • Patch 0.5.1.2
    • Made it so when a game running on DX12 detects an incompatible Intel graphics card it will set the renderer to DX11 instead, this is to solve crashes on Start-up or Loading due to DX12 incompatibility.
    • If you are on an Intel GPU and you’re running the game completely fine in DX12, you can still force it by adding the following launch options:
      • -d3d12
      • -DX12
  • Patch 0.5.0.10
