Essential improvements
Special K - FFXV Mini-Mod
- Allows users to block certain input devices to prevent the game from hitching every time it loads the icon for another input device.
- Lowers the Steam API overhead of the game; provides more stable frame render times and shorter loading times on certain hardware configurations.
- Includes options that fix thread scheduling options in some threads, that causes starvation on graphics/audio threads.
Game data
- The Steam and Origin versions do not respect a relocated Documents folder unless symlinks are used.

Stutters
Final Fantasy XV uses heavy resources in its paging file, which acts as alternate virtual RAM.[8]
If the paging file is set too low (such as a maximum of 2GB), this can act as a performance bottleneck, resulting in frequent stutters while exploring. This is especially true if the system's RAM is 8GB and under. Increasing the paging file size (such as from 2GB to 8GB) can drastically improve performance and reduce stutters.
