Borderlands 2 cfg maker

About:

The Borderlands 2 - CFG maker will let you configure the game settings. The tool works online so you will not have to install anything onyour system to configure your custom config. After setting all the options below the output will be given on a seperate screen. The output has to be Copy & Pasted into the appropriate file(s)described below

Caution

Be sure to backup both WillowEngine.ini files in your
" *:\Users\"username"\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 2\WillowGame\Config"
" *:\Users\"username"\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 2\WillowGame\Config\LauncherConfig"
folders before generating a new CFG"

How to use:

Copy the generated code and put it into the text file named "WillowEngine.ini" at the following locations:
" *:\Users\"username"\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 2\WillowGame\Config"
" *:\Users\"username"\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 2\WillowGame\Config\LauncherConfig"

be sure to replace everything in the files with the code that will be generated on the output page anything that is missing will be auto-generated by the engine on game launch

    Enjoy. If there are any options that need to be added and/or request please let me know so I can update the Borderlands 2 – CFG maker.

    To stop texture popping completely do the following:

    In WillowEngine.ini, find the [SystemSettings] section and update the following entries:

    TEXTUREGROUP_World=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize=4096,LODBias=0,MinMagFilter=Aniso,MipFilter=Linear,MipGenSettings=TMGS_SimpleAverage,IgnoreTextureLODBias,NumStreamedMips=0)

    TEXTUREGROUP_Effects=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize=4096,LODBias=0,MinMagFilter=Linear,MipFilter=Linear,MipGenSettings=TMGS_SimpleAverage,NumStreamedMips=0)

    TEXTUREGROUP_ProcBuilding_Face=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize=1024,LODBias=0,MinMagFilter=Aniso,MipFilter=Linear,MipGenSettings=TMGS_SimpleAverage,NumStreamedMips=0)
    TEXTUREGROUP_ProcBuilding_LightMap=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize=256,LODBias=0,MinMagFilter=Aniso,MipFilter=Linear,MipGenSettings=TMGS_SimpleAverage,NumStreamedMips=0)
    TEXTUREGROUP_Terrain_Heightmap=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize=4096,LODBias=0,MinMagFilter=Aniso,MipFilter=Linear,MipGenSettings=TMGS_SimpleAverage,NumStreamedMips=0)

    TEXTUREGROUP_Bokeh=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize=256,LODBias=0,MinMagFilter=Linear,MipFilter=Linear,MipGenSettings=TMGS_SimpleAverage,NumStreamedMips=0)

    The important thing to note here is the addition of the parameter:

    NumStreamedMips=0

    at the end of each line.

    I also updated the [TextureStreaming] section to look like the following (uses more RAM):

    [TextureStreaming]
    PoolSize=512
    MemoryMargin=20
    MemoryLoss=0
    HysteresisLimit=40
    DropMipLevelsLimit=34
    StopIncreasingLimit=20
    StopStreamingLimit=16
    MinEvictSize=14
    MinFudgeFactor=1
    FudgeFactorIncreaseRateOfChange=0.5
    FudgeFactorDecreaseRateOfChange=-0.4
    MinRequestedMipsToConsider=11
    MinTimeToGuaranteeMinMipCount=2
    MaxTimeToGuaranteeMinMipCount=12
    UseTextureFileCache=TRUE
    LoadMapTimeLimit=0.1
    LightmapStreamingFactor=0.02
    ShadowmapStreamingFactor=0.2
    TextureFileCacheBulkDataAlignment=1
    UsePriorityStreaming=True
    bAllowSwitchingStreamingSystem=True
    UseDynamicStreaming=True
    bEnableAsyncDefrag=False
    bEnableAsyncReallocation=False
    MaxDefragRelocations=256
    MaxDefragDownShift=128
    BoostPlayerTextures=3.0
    TemporalAAMemoryReserve=4.0
    EnableStats=true
    HistoryDepth=50
    DynamicStreaming=2
    DynamicStreamingDistances=1250
    DynamicStreamingDistances=200
    DynamicStreamingDistances=9

    @nZeeR thanks version 1.1 of the tool already has the mipmap option added and will be released later today when I’m home. About the texturestreaming section I have seen the code/config options on several sites. I have tested allot and the PoolSize that is already added seems to have the most impact. If you have any other requests or options to add please let me know.

    Brilliant :)

    Do we still need to manually add the texture streaming fix to the generated config? (in particular the NumStreamedMips=0 stuff).

    Thanks for you work :)

    @ dangel

    The texture streaming fix will be included with the next update that will be released later today around 21:00/22:00 gmt+1 when I’m home and behind the PC. If you want to make use of it now you have to add it yourself for the time being.

    I wasn’t able to update it yesterday as I was to tired after work. I’ll finish the update today when I’m home again as I think it will benefit allot of people that are playing this great game.
