Benchmark Mode: Command Line Options
The benchmark mode can be run in 3 ways: from the main menu from the command line as a benchmark from the command line as a looping demo
When running from the command line, exclusive fullscreen is automatically switched on and vsync is switched off. When not running as a looping demo, a file named benchmarkresults yyyy-mm-dd hh-mm-ss.txt is created in the working directory.
Run the benchmark on startup and quit the game when finished.
-benchmarkini filename.ini
Run the benchmark on startup and quit the game when finished. The ini file contains overrides for quality settings.
-loop
Loop the benchmark instead of quitting after it completes. This is a demo mode, so statistics are disabled.
