Note

Resolutions above 1920x1080 can be partially scaled and also have heavy impact on performance. A resolution change requires a confirmation or it will be set back to the initial resolution after 10 seconds. If you have selected an invalid resolution, you can wait 10 seconds for it's reset or start the game with the "-safemode" parameter, that will reset the resolution, effects and details to minimum. After changing the settings in the safemode, a restart is required to enter normal mode.
