Somehow though, using only the most important one, Detail Mode, allows me to crank it up from 2 to 5, and not only stays intact, but lets me adjust any graphics settings. The long and short of it is, I can’t get all the config tweaks I wanted to use to stay intact (not that they were before Live login anyway really), and if I use too many the graphics menu will freeze on me. Something’s also causing my config tweak to revert back to the post processing enabled, yet it still shows the values I used in the config to disable it.įINALLY, that trick worked like a charm! Thanks bud, I owe you one.
I captured a couple clips of how it looks, I’ll edit and upload it tomorrow.

The shame is I was also able to get it to look quite decent with a lot of config file tweaks to more than double detail mode, completely remove post processing, bump the anisotropic filtering from 4 to 16, and use 4K DSR, but if I have to play through the whole game in one session, or leave it minimized while my PC is running for days, it’s not really worth it. Someone said there’s a workaround by renaming the checkpoints in the game directory, but I’d rather not hassle with that. Even if I create a Start Menu shortcut, and add it to the Xbox Companion App’s list of games and launch it from there, same problem. Managed to get KB/M menu controls and settings working, but it’s impossible to login to GfWL, and without that it won’t retain settings or progress once you quit game. And that’s not just my take but what I’ve seen many say.īTW, just so you know, I was trying to play it with KB/M. I know on build 1803 it works fine, but not on 1903. OK, first off, what version of W10 are you on? I’m on build 1903. I don’t know why it is not working for you but I can tell you what I did to get it up and running. I still enjoy playing the original one online and yes, on Windows 10. What really ticked me off is when MS sent me an email saying they added the Original GoW app on my account after I bought Gears of War 4, fully knowing that Original GoW doesn’t work on W10. I can see the value of UE on console, since it adds gameplay content, but that’s not the case on PC.
#GEARS OF WAR 4 CD KEY PC PLUS#
That’s all Original GoW needs, plus 4K DSR and Nvidia’s new Sharpen feature to compete with UE. If I see GoW UE at half off over the holidays, I very well may get it, but I can’t see paying $20 for a game that doesn’t look a whole lot better than the file edit I used way back when. MS need to get realistic, it’s been 4 years since GoE UE released, time to lower the price.
#GEARS OF WAR 4 CD KEY PC INSTALL#
Original GoW will install on W10, but it’s very broken and most things don’t work right, not even basic res settings and such.
The edit, which I can’t find anymore, made textures look and load way better, plus it removed the dark PP that muted colors. I used to use a file edit for original GoW, which I bought way back when it came out and still have the slim DVD box it came in. Only problem is, GoW UE is only available on the MS Store, where they want $20 for it, yet you can get Gears of War 4 at any reputable key site legally for less than a 4th of that. I know you’re trying to help, but that’s not really useful info since the biggest problem with original GoW is not really having the 3rd patch, it’s that W10 doesn’t support it.
