How to adjust Game Settings for Windows games?

The game settings can be seen in Settings > Log for individual games, but I cannot find anywhere to adjust the values. For example:

Game Settings: {
    "autoInstallDxvk": false,
    "autoInstallDxvkNvapi": false,
    "autoInstallVkd3d": false,
    "preferSystemLibs": false,
    "enableEsync": true,
    "enableMsync": false,
    "enableFsync": false,
    "launcherArgs": "-dx12 -USEALLAVAILABLECORES",
    "nvidiaPrime": false,
    "enviromentOptions": [],
    "wrapperOptions": [],
    "showFps": false,
    "targetExe": "",
    "useGameMode": false,
    "battlEyeRuntime": false,
    "eacRuntime": false,
    "language": "",
    "beforeLaunchScriptPath": "",
    "afterLaunchScriptPath": ""
}

Game Settings: {
    "autoInstallDxvk": false,
    "autoInstallDxvkNvapi": false,
    "autoInstallVkd3d": false,
    "preferSystemLibs": false,
    "enableEsync": true,
    "enableMsync": false,
    "enableFsync": false,
    "launcherArgs": "-dx12 -USEALLAVAILABLECORES",
    "nvidiaPrime": false,
    "enviromentOptions": [],
    "wrapperOptions": [],
    "showFps": false,
    "targetExe": "",
    "useGameMode": false,
    "battlEyeRuntime": false,
    "eacRuntime": false,
    "language": "",
    "beforeLaunchScriptPath": "",
    "afterLaunchScriptPath": ""
}

Some of these seem specific to Linux and that's fine, but how do we adjust values for settings like useGameMode or showFps that should be adjustable for Windows installations? I cannot find these settings in general/advanced settings or in the settings for specific games.

those settings are only implemented for linux, that's why they don't show in the UI

So that's a reference to feral gamemode, not Windows game mode - got it. The showFps option is the same I guess? Related to Mongohud maybe?

absent-sapphire•9mo ago

not sure if it uses mangohud for that or just a DXVK flag, but it's not implemented for windows

Got it, thank you for clearing that up for me

I made a PR to hide those confusing values in the logs, to only show the ones that actually apply for each system, hopefully the next release will show non-confusing details

Good idea, especially if you have nerds that want to tweak all the things like me
