| + | Max out and turn on all settings, and to improve FPS, set sliders and options as following [https://yadi.sk/d/sWHYgjVrE5pg1Q (ready config)]: | ||
| + | * Vision distance to 5/11 (0 or 2 causes frequent disappearing of some objects) | ||
| + | * Objects detail to 3 or 4+ (0 - low texture quality in distant [e.g. on hills in Cordon - avoidable by setting 2-3 points above 0]) | ||
| + | * Grass density to 0 (or 3/4, 1/4, depends on a taste) | ||
| + | |||
| + | In the second place: | ||
| + | * Grass shadows off (minor visual impact with some performance impact, though depends on API and taste) | ||
| + | * Sun rays off (like above) | ||
| + | * HDAO is claimed to be optimized for AMD | ||
| + | * HBAO for Nvidia cards (the last option) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Disable for 1 FPS gain on each (from 23 FPS): | ||
| + | * Ambient Occlusion (entirely) | ||
| + | * FXAA | ||
| + | * Soft Particles | ||
| + | * Anisotropic Filtering | ||
| + | * MSAA from x2 to 0 | ||
| + | |||
| + | Others: | ||
| + | * Keep Sun shadows always on (massive change of lighting) | ||
| + | * V-Sync off (reportedly reported frame lock working sometimes below native monitor frequency - depending on FPS dips; alternatively force V-Sync in your GPU panel) | ||
| + | * Keep textures in RAM off | ||
| + | * Object prefetching on (disabled cause stuttering, delete -noprefetch from your shortcut properties). | ||
| + | {{ii}} Settings tested on Q9650/HD7870. | ||
| + | * Some settings may require the game restart, even if you're not asked to do so (e.g. grass density, texture quality, MSAA). | ||
| + | * Restart the game (instead of just clicking quit the game and load last save) in case of performance decrease after changing details a lot of times. | ||
| + | * If your game settings stopped to be saved after the game restart, change the settings and save them before loading the game. | ||
| + | * Run the game only from a desktop shortcut to avoid crash on launch. | ||
| + | * {{key|Alt|Tab}} cause engine error (at least with Reshade). As a workaround, disable full screen, and enable it again after task switching. | ||
| + | * Game utilizes the computing power of more than two cores mostly only during loading (at least distributes load rather linearly only at this moment). | ||
| + | }} | ||
| + | {{Fixbox|description=Use compatibility mode of Windows Vista SP2 or XP SP3|fix= | ||
| + | Double FPS boost in certain, rather more rare areas with ~>99% GPU usage, and is visible after >1 minute after loading save (e.g. Monolith base. [https://yadi.sk/d/Z7NByibCT9WCpA Before and after saves] - also settings testing place) | ||
| + | {{--}} Causes very slow level loading times, saves, the main menu, or causes rare hang after pressing ESC. | ||
| + | * You can preserve FPS gain achieved in compatibility mode by saving the game and loading it in the game launched normally. | ||
| + | * FPS drops again after triggering progress during quests (e.g. after quest text appearing, spawning new enemies - usually when the game stops for a few seconds, or stutters). | ||
| + | * Turn on shader cache in GPU driver panel to increase save and level loading times (SSD recommended). | ||
| + | * Compatibility mode in some cases increases VRAM usage by ~300 MB. | ||
