State of Decay 2 has just been released and PC gamers have already figured ways via which they can adjust/tweak the game. Although the game comes with a certain amount of graphics seetings, gamers can further tweak it thanks to its .INI configuration files.
PC gamers can change the Field of View, disable mouse smoothing, disable motion blur, depth of field, lens flares, and enable supersampling.
The .INI configuration files is located at the “%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.Dayton_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\StateOfDecay2\Saved\Config\UWP” folder. In there, you will find the Engine.ini and the GameuserSettings.ini files.
In order to tweak the aforementioned settings, you’ll have to follow this guide. You’ll also need to set the files as read-only after your changes.
Fix FOV
File: Engine.ini
Section: [/Script/Engine.LocalPlayer]
AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV
Disable Motion Blur:
File: Engine.ini
Section: [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.DefaultFeature.MotionBlur=False
Disable Lens Flare
File: Engine.ini
Section: [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.DefaultFeature.LensFlare=False
Disable Depth Of Field
File: Engine.ini
Section: [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.DefaultFeature.DepthOfField=False
Supersamping
File: Engine.ini
Section: [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.ScreenPercentage=100.00
(Go higher than 100 to super sample above the set resolution). I tested 200 and then tested 25 and the difference was substantial.)
Remove Mouse Smoothing
File: GameuserSettings.ini
Section: [/Script/DaytonGame.DaytonGameUserSettings]
bDisableMouseAcceleration=True
Grass Density
File: Scalability.ini
Section: [FoliageQuality@3]
foliage.DensityScale=1.0
grass.DensityScale=1.0
Remove Film grain effect
File: Engine.ini
Section: [SystemSettings]
r.Tonemapper.GrainQuantization=0
r.Tonemapper.Quality=0

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
