(VRAM usage is high due to AA and not upscaling. Makes sense to tackle it there. Also, don't remove template messages.)

Resistance: Fall of Man is a 2006 science-fiction first-person shooter video game for the PlayStation 3. It was developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The game is set in an alternate history 1951, and follows Sergeant Nathan Hale as he and the human resistance forces attempt to drive a mysterious alien-like invasion out of the United Kingdom.

Resistance: Fall of Man is a first-person shooter set in an alternate history. Many of its gameplay features stem from this, most notably the weapons. Some weapons are based on real weapons circa the 1950s, while some weapons are futuristically altered in accordance with the game's storyline. Insomniac Games has combined its passion for creating exotic weapons and vehicles, such as those found in the Ratchet and Clank series, with its proprietary development engine and physics system to create unique human and Chimeran weaponry. Each weapon provides a unique play style and strategy.

Configuration

Options that deviate from RPCS3's default settings and provide the best experience with this title are listed below.

GPU configuration

Setting Option Notes
Anti-aliasing Disabled Anti-Aliasing uses a lot of VRAM especially when paired with resolution scaling and increases the likelihood of crashes.

Advanced configuration

Setting Option Notes
Vblank rate 120 To be used in combination with Whatcookie's "Unlock FPS" patch which will allow the game to run at 60FPS.

Known Issues

Resistance: Fall of Man uses a lot of VRAM which will lead to crashing. As such here is a list of maximum usable resolution-scaling values that will not cause crashes.

Highest Recommended Resolution Based on Available VRAM

4GB GPU = 150% Scaling

5GB+ GPU = [Users with GPUs of greater VRAM capacity are encouraged to investigate and contribute to this section.]
