Yggdrasil: DQXI Modding & Resources

INI Profiles

Update (03/2021): There is a much improved INI profile which addresses draw distance, lighting and other fixes not covered by the tweaks below- https://pastebin.com/STU7dH0j

Additionally, DQXI-SDK includes the RenderFix plugin, which augments these improvements with adjustments to Anti-Aliasing and Scene Rendering: https://github.com/emoose/DQXIS-SDK

https://pastebin.com/kWxQVXfu (updated for Definitive Edition)

These can be tested in game with the console like so:

x.Variable - Shows current value
x.Variable Y - Changes value to Y

Or added to <documents>\My Games\DRAGON QUEST XI\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Engine.ini under "[SystemSettings]" to permanently set the desired value.
