The Crust – How to Fix / Disable Motion Blur & TAA

Motion Blur & TAA Guide

Engine.ini settings let you turn off Motion blur. You can also turn off Temporal Anti Aliasing if you want. Some players find these features hard to look at. They can also make the game look worse to some people.

How to Turn Off Motion Blur

To turn off motion blur, you need to change a file on your computer. First, find the folder called %localappdata%\TheCrust\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor. In this folder, look for a file named Engine.ini. Open this file with a text editor. You can use Notepad or another text editor you like. Once the file is open, go to the very end. At the bottom of the file, you’ll need to add some new text.

[SystemSettings]
r.MotionBlur.Max=0
r.MotionBlurQuality=0
r.DefaultFeature.MotionBlur=0

How to Turn Off Temporal Anti Aliasing

Open the Engine.ini file we talked about before. Look for a part that says [SystemSettings]. If you don’t see it, add it to the file. Under [SystemSettings], add this line:

[SystemSettings]
r.PostProcessAAQuality=0

This turns off Temporal Anti Aliasing. If you want to turn off all Anti Aliasing, add another line:

r.DefaultFeature.AntiAliasing=0

Remember, only add [SystemSettings] if it’s not already there. Just put the new lines under it if it exists.

How to Turn Off extra Post Processing Effects

Open the Engine.ini file again. Find the [SystemSettings] part we talked about before. If it’s not there, add it. Then, under [SystemSettings], you can add these lines:

[SystemSettings]
r.Tonemapper.GrainQuantization=0
r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0
r.LensFlareQuality=0
r.SceneColorFringeQuality=0

Remember, you only need to add [SystemSettings] once. If it’s already there, just put the new lines under it.

These settings turn off Film Grain, Depth of Field, Lens Flares, and Chromatic Aberration. Chromatic Aberration makes rainbow colors at edges. Some of these might not be in the game right now. I’m keeping this info here in case they add them later, or if I just haven’t seen them yet.

Turning Off These Settings

Try to keep most settings on. Turning off too many can make the game look worse. The options below turn off Motion Blur and Depth of Field.

Go to this folder: %localappdata%\TheCrust\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Engine.ini

Open the file with a text editor. Add these lines at the end:

[SystemSettings]
r.MotionBlur.Max=0
r.MotionBlurQuality=0
r.DefaultFeature.MotionBlur=0
r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0

If you want to turn off everything, use these settings. They turn off Motion Blur, DOF, TAA, and other extras.

Put these lines at the end of the engine.ini file we talked about before:

[SystemSettings]
r.MotionBlur.Max=0
r.MotionBlurQuality=0
r.DefaultFeature.MotionBlur=0
r.PostProcessAAQuality=0
r.Tonemapper.GrainQuantization=0
r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0
r.LensFlareQuality=0
r.SceneColorFringeQuality=0
