In DOOM (2016) how do you turn off or disable Developer Mode

doom-2016

When I first fired up Doom I toggled GOD mode so I could screw with the AI, but now Doom seems to be stuck in Developer Mode. I can no longer earn achievement and show off my progress.

Whenever an achievement should be awarded the game suggests restarting "without accessing any developer tools to restore.":

Shacknews.com suggests the possibility that there is a "Cheat Flag" on my save.

We’d also like to mention that using any of the commands listed above may trigger a Cheat Flag on your save file, that may or may not disable online play. This is how the system worked in the game’s alpha build, and it may affect players the same way in the final release.

Unfortunately, restarting Doom and not hitting the tilde key does not solve the issue and I can't afford to loose my save as I've already invested 8+ hours. Are there any commands I can run to disable Developer Mode?

It is easy the notice message does say what to do you must delete your save games(game slot) in game in campaign mode then you exit and enter again and start a new game slot

What do the different DOOM 4 antialiasing settings do and how do they impact performance relative to each other

That list you're seeing is a list of different technologies for anti-aliasing the game. They're by no means exclusive to DOOM.

Different technologies perform anti-aliasing in different ways and thus achieve different results.
Usually the game lists them in order of less processing power consumption to more processing power consumption. The technology in the top is the one that requires less processing power and the one in the bottom is the one that requires the most processing power.
Generally the less processing power an anti-aliasing technology uses the less aliasing it reduces and/or introduces more blur or other defects in the image. The more processing power it uses the more aliasing it reduces without introducing many defects to the image.

There are, however, a few exceptions to theses generic rules. I just gave them to use as a rule of thumb when you don't know what they mean.

Now let's go over a few of the technologies you mentioned:

FXAA - Fast approximate anti-aliasing - developed by Nvidia.
- Pros: does not require large amounts of computing power and includes all pixels of the screen (even those showing transparent elements).
- Cons: textures may not appear as sharp and must be applied before rendering the HUD elements
SMAA - Subpixel Morphological Anti-Aliasing - it's a more efficient implementation of the traditional MLAA (Morphological Anti-Aliasing).
TAA - Temporal Anti-Aliasing - a technique to prevent temporal aliasing which is caused by framrates being too low in comparison with moving objects in a scene.
TSSAA - Temporal Super Sampling Anti-Aliasing - same as TAA but uses supersampling to achieve better visual results.

All of these technologies come in varying strengths indicated by their multiplier. The multiplier is the number with the TX in front of if. in TSSAA (8TX) the 8TX is the multiplier.
The higher the number the more processing power it will require and the better the results it will achieve.

What launch option do I set to start DOOM 4 straight into multiplayer mode

The variable "com_gameMode" controls the mode in which the game runs at. It is described as:

determines asset load pattern and runtime behavior for production builds only

There are 6 values available:

0 - ALL - all modes presumabely, although it didn't work for me as intended. Clicking Multiplayer restarted the game immediately, without any confirmation.
1 - SP - singleplayer mode, the default value
2 - MP - multiplayer mode
3 - SNAP - the snapmap mode I guess, never tried it yet
4 - SHELL - no idea. Maybe just the game shell without any modes?
5 - MOD - for mods?

Therefore, if you want to start in multiplayer mode you need to pass the parameter:

+com_gameMode 2

Initially, I thought this is idiotic. On second thought, this seems as a mechanism to avoid loading unused assets. It could be done better though, upon actually clicking on the mode itself and not at start...
