This is a mod for Alien: Isolation that enables 60 FPS, enhanced graphics settings and more advanced settings.

All settings are WIP and may glitch or crash your game. Only tested in handheld mode.

Installation

To enable 60 FPS you only need to download for versions:

1.1_46609 - AlienISO-60FPS.zip
1.1.2_47610 - AlienISO-60FPS-1.1.2_47610.zip
1.1.3_48479 - AlienISO-60FPS-1.1.3_48479.zip
1.1.4_60709 - 397C054A3D25D488.txt

For 1.1_46609, 1.1.2_47610 and 1.1.3_48479 versions:

Put exefs_patches folder to atmosphere folder.
And restart Switch.

For 1.1.4_60709 version:

Put the txt file to /atmosphere/contents/010075D00E8BA000/cheats/.
Create folder if any doesn't exist.
Activate 60 FPS in cheat manager (for example EdiZon Overlay).

To enable enhanced settings, extract AlienEnhancedSettings.zip to the corresponding directory:

Atmosphere >=0.10.1 /atmosphere/contents/
Atmosphere <=0.9.4 /atmosphere/title/
SXOS /sxos/titles/

User guide

60 FPS

With sys-clk's max OC setting you still will notice sometimes framedrops to 30 FPS with default graphics settings.

Some animations in menu are double speed and camera is now more sensitive, so you need to adjust right stick.

Enhanced settings

This mod adds more options to edit. As they are matching equivalents of PC release, setting things to ultra may crash your game.

What was added:

Level of Detail (by default Medium).
Shadow Map Resolution (by default 1024).
Shadow Mapping (by default low, not confirmed if it's working).
Particles (by default Low, not confirmed if it's working).
Motion Blur On/Off (by default Off).
Depth of Field On/Off (by default On, not confirmed if it's working).
Planar Reflections On/Off (by default On, not confirmed if it's working).
SSAO (by default Off).
Texture Filtering (by default Anisotropic 2x, not confirmed if it's working).
Field of View (by default 47).
- Warning: Configs by default are disabling any changes to FOV.
- If you have already created save, then you need to delete it from Data Management or backup save, edit "preferences" file and change
- <value name="DisallowCustomFOV" type="integer">1</value> to
- <value name="DisallowCustomFOV" type="integer">0</value>

Confirmed not working:

Volumetric Lighting On/Off (Off by default, but it has some custom force values specific for Switch)
Antialiasing option has been disabled, because TAA is a separate setting that cannot be added to game menu.

Advanced settings

More advanced settings you can find in save file.

You can find here settings such as:

Dynamic Resolution.
TAA.
Sharpening upscaler.
LowQualityDoF.
HardcodeShadowSettings.
ForceVolumetricLightingLevels.
ForceLowResAlpha.
DisallowCustomFOV.

Backup save with Checkpoint or EdiZon and edit "preferences" file.

This is how looks default file with Polish language set:
