Graphics Settings

Resolution

0x0 is the resolution it is a byte. Its ordered in lowest resolution (640 x 480) to highest resolution of your monitor. This is probably the most simplest, but complex setting in this list.

Example: 0 = 640 x 480 1 = 800 x 600

and the rest of the values you'll have to pull from the monitor.

Sky (ON/OFF)

OFFSET(dec): 69

Notes: ON = 150, OFF = 22

Foot Steps (ON/OFF)

OFFSET(dec): 74

Notes: 128 = ON, 129 = OFF

OFFSET(dec): 168

Notes: 0 = OFF, 02 = ON

High Quality Textures (LOW/HIGH)

OFFSET(dec): 172

Notes: 16 = LOW, 144 = HIGH

Gamma

OFFSET(dec): 151 152

Notes:

151 0 - 255 (Starts at 75)

152 Each time 151 passes 255 151 value + 1 and 151 changes to 0


Example:

0 = 76 - 255

1 = 510 - 765

2 = 765 - 1020

Debug Settings 'O'

Covers the rest of the file, but I'm personally not going to go though all 73 of them and see what saves and what doesn't. I know Draw Objects and things save but I'm ending my journey here.
