Launch Arguments

Launch arguments can be used to either increase the quality of your game or decrease it. It all depends on what flags you use.

Neverness To Everness

Flag	Tags	Description
Renderer
-dx11	Fixed Warning	Forces the DirectX 11 renderer. NTE is built to be ran on DX12, so you'll get worse performance.
-dx12	Fixed	Forces the DirectX 12 renderer.
-rtx	Quality Fixed	Enables hardware ray tracing for Lumen.
Presets
-lowspec	Performance Fixed	Makes the game have less quality, designed for low-end hardware. Sets 62 keys.
-highspec	Quality Fixed	Designed for absolute maximum quality. Threading, streaming, shadow and Lumen settings are all raised to their maximum. Sets 931 keys.
Game Performance
-nofpslimit	Performance Fixed	Removes the FPS limit
-maxfps={value}	Performance Value	Caps the frame rate at the given value, 0 means uncapped.
-nothrottle	Performance Fixed	Keeps the game running at full speed when the window loses focus.
-lowlatency	Performance Fixed	Removes the one-frame render lag, lowers latency at the cost of slightly less FPS.
Post Processing
-motionblur={value}	Quality Value	Forces motion blur on and sets its quality. Accepted range is between 0 and 4.
-motionbluramount={value}	Quality Value	Sets how strong the motion blur is. Accepted range is between 0 and 1.
-nomotionblur	Quality Fixed	Turns off motion blur
-nofilmgrain	Performance Fixed	Removes the film grain overlay.
-noca	Quality Fixed	Removes chromatic aberration, including the game's lens effect.
-sharpen={value}	Quality Value Warning	Sharpens the final image. Anything above 3 will produce visible halos and artifacts.
-taasharpness={value}	Quality Value	Adjusts anti-aliasing sharpness, for reducing TAA blur.
-noflicker	Quality Fixed	Reduces TSR shimmering on fine detail like hair and foliage.
Detail & streaming
-maxaniso={value}	Quality Value	Anisotropic filtering level. Sharpens textures viewed at an angle.
-nanitedetail={value}	Quality Value	Nanite geometry detail. Lower is sharper and heavier; higher is chunkier and faster.
-shadowpages={value}	Performance Value	Virtual shadow map page pool size. Higher reduces shadow artifacts, costs VRAM.
-shadowbias=-0.5={value}	Quality Value	Directional shadow resolution bias. Negative values give sharper shadows.
-texturepool={value}	Performance Value Warning	Percentage of VRAM reserved for textures. Higher values reduce texture pop-in. Values too low can cause stuttering or crashing.
Input
-rawmouse	Performance Fixed	Enables raw mouse input and disables mouse acceleration and smoothing.
Privacy
-nocrashupload	Privacy Fixed	Stops the game from uploading crash reports.
-notelemetry	Privacy Fixed	Disables the game's built-in telemetry.
Loading & Performance
-fastload	Performance Fixed	Lazy-loads shaders when a pipeline exists. No visual changes.
-cacheshadows	Performance Fixed	Caches the whole-scene between frames. No visual changes.
Game Effects
-nodof	Quality Fixed	Turns off depth-of-field blur.
-nobloom	Quality Fixed	Turns off bloom/glow.
-novignette	Quality Fixed	Removes darkened screen edges.
-nolensflare	Quality Fixed	Removes lens flare from bright light sources.
-nossr	Performance Quality Fixed	Turns off screen space reflections. Large performance gain at the cost of quality.
-noao	Quality Fixed	Turns off ambient occlusion shading from corners and object crevices.
-lowwater	Performance Quality Fixed	Reduces water quality as much as possible.
-lowfog	Quality Fixed	Reduces volumetric fog to almost nothing.
Effect Qualities
-shadowquality={value}	Quality Value	Global overall shadow quality.
-shadowres={value}	Quality Value	Maximum shadow map resolution. Default is 164. Lower is blockier and faster.
-aaquality={value}	Quality Value	Anti-aliasing quality. Range from 0 to 6.
-detailmode={value}	Performance Value	World detail level. 0 hides low-priority decorative objects.
-maxparticles={value}	Performance Value	Caps CPU particles per emitter.
