XIII – Classic Guide

Setting higher resolution and getting widescreen support + Mouse Fix for XIII - Classic

Setting higher resolution and getting widescreen support + Mouse Fix

Overview

XIII is a older game by now, and it lacks settings for higher resolutions above 1600×1200, and it also lacks better widescreen field of view. So this is how you fix that quick and easy

WARNING

Start game for the first time, make profile in game first and Do this before you start

All-in-one installer

You can download it for automatic process here but if you want have time progress in Steam and Steam overlay you must follow there steps:

  • In installer choose Upgrade the exiting version

  • Specify the main game folder directory
  • choose resolution
  • Launch the game from steam client everytime

Mouse Fix on higher resolutions

Test your mouse in game before fixing, you maybe don’t need it

Stage 1: XIII.ini setting
We going to …XIII – Classicsystem
Open the file : “XIII.ini”, search and copy the following lines :

  • UseTripleBuffering=False
  • UseVSync=False
  • ReduceMouseLag=False

Stage 2: Mouse Polling Rate
Another thing that helps, set your Mouse Polling Rate to 250/125HZ(125 great works for me). But maybe it not help you and you can return your standart Polling Rate

FOV setting for widescreen correct work

If you use “All in one” installer – you don’t need this

Go to where your game is installed and find a folder named “System” once there look for a file named “DefUser.ini” when you locate it open it.

Look for these two lines:

DesiredFOV=85.000000
DefaultFOV=85.000000

If you have a monitor with a 16:9 ratio change the number to “100.000000” if your running with a 16:10 try “95.000000” as that seems to work pretty well. Save and exit.

Resolution setting

If you use “All in one” installer – you don’t need this
Look for a file called “XIII.ini” in the same folder, and open it up. And look for entries named

FullscreenViewportX=
FullscreenViewportY=
