{{ii}} There are several performance demanding options that can be lowered/disabled without providing a noticeable graphic loss. Get a significant FPS boost by:
+
# Launch Steam in desktop mode.
* Disabling high precision option.
+
# Open the '''Library''', {{key|Right Click}} on the game and select '''Properties'''.
* Disabling TressFX technology - set hair to normal. Patches have improved TressFX performance, but it still has major impact on frame rate, especially on non-AMD graphics cards.
+
# On the '''Betas''' tab, select {{Code|build743.0 - TR Build 1.01.743.0}} in the drop-down menu.
* Setting Screen space ambient occlusion (SSAO) to normal. "Ultra" Ambient Occlusion setting stands for HDAO, wich is AMD's AO tecnology, and may cause major performance loss in Nvidia videocards.<ref>[http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/03/20/tomb_raider_video_card_performance_iq_review/8#.U9mBmrHQr2o Tomb Raider Video Card Performance and IQ Review - HARDOCP]</ref><ref>[http://wiki.gametrailers.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=1347403&start=40 Tomb Raider broken on PC - GameTrailers Forums]</ref>
+
# Click '''Close''' to save the changes and allow the Steam client to downgrade the game.
* Setting AA to [[FXAA]] is recommended as it provides barely no performance loss, while [[SSAA]] is very demanding.
 
* Setting shadows option under Ultra.
 
* Running game in [[#Force_DirectX_9_renderer_on_DirectX_11_systems|DirectX 9 mode]].

===QTE streamlining===
 
{{ii}} Tomb Raider is heavy on [[Wikipedia:quick time event|quick time events (QTEs)]], which can be sometimes annoying.
 
{{--}} QTEs in Tomb Raider does not display key name but rather monochrome icon associated with specific binding or QTE, which can be confusing and problematic to solve.
 
{{ii}} However, if you are actively using an Xbox 360 controller or other XInput-compatible controller, the game will display controller button names and colors as normal.
 
 
 
List of QTEs and possible solutions:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
|-
 
! QTE Icon !! Solution
 
|-
 
| Hand in red circle || Repeatedly press interact key (default E) as fast as possible.
 
|-
 
| Exclamation mark in red diamond.|| Press melee key (default F).
 
|-
 
| White circle getting smaller || Tap repeatedly melee key (default F). This QTE is bugged - circle animation is out of sync with trigger behind QTE and therefore it is difficult win this QTE normally. Luckily there is no penalization for missing said trigger with key press so pressing melee key for whole duration of QTE works perfectly.
 
|-
 
| Left and right arrow || Alternately press left and right movement keys (default A and D).
 
|-
 
| Hand in red circle when Lara is hanging from ledge|| Press interact key (default E).
 
|}
 
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|Bypass mashing keys}}
 
{{ii}} You can replace key mashing QTE for just one key press, however you need gaming mouse or keyboard software with ability to create macros.
 
{{ii}} This guide contains only general directions. Actual process may vary as there are several versions of gaming software.
 
 
 
'''1.''' Open you macro/gaming software and create new macro.
 
 
 
'''2.''' Record single key press and make sure there are delays between action at least 20ms. It should look something like this for E key:
 
 
 
<pre>
 
Key E down
 
20ms delay
 
Key E up
 
20ms delay
 
</pre>
 
 
 
'''3.''' Set this macro to your desired key and set option to "repeat macro as long as pressed".
 
 
 
{{ii}} If your macro is not working properly, try increasing delay as some systems won't recognize key presses if they are too fast.

Issues fixed

Incorrect UI/HUD placement

The November 2021 update that brought with it Epic Online Services for the multiplayer infrastructure also broke various UI/HUD positions.
Workaround: restore game to an older version[14]
  1. Launch Steam in desktop mode.
  2. Open the Library, Right Click on the game and select Properties.
  3. On the Betas tab, select build743.0 - TR Build 1.01.743.0 in the drop-down menu.
  4. Click Close to save the changes and allow the Steam client to downgrade the game.

Voice over language setting is not saved

Registry edit to change game language
  1. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Crysal Dynamics\Tomb Raider\
  2. Find the VOLanguage key and double click it.
  3. Change the value to the following list below:
    • a for Russian
    • e for Arabic
    • 0 for English
    • 1 for French
    • 2 for German
    • 3 for Spanish
    • 4 for Italian
    • 6 for Japanese
    • 9 for Polish

Endurance Boss glitch freeze (high FPS Issue)

Cap the frame rate at 60 FPS[15]

Camera does not turn in multiplayer mode

There is no permanent solution. This fix will work until exiting the game.
Go to Graphics Options and change resolution, refresh rate, or toggle exclusive fullscreen mode.[16][17]

Performance boost for quad-core CPUs (and higher core count)

This tweak reportedly yields a higher framerate in seemingly CPU-heavy areas like the Shantytown hub through better core utilization.
Registry tweak for multi-core (4+ cores) CPUs[20]
  1. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Dynamics\Tomb Raider\Graphics
  2. Create a new DWORD (32-bit) Value named MultiCoreFlushMode and set it to 1.
In the Linux version, this option is already automatically applied.[citation needed]

Force DirectX 9 renderer on DirectX 11 systems

Forcing DirectX 9 on Windows may result in better performance on some systems. However DirectX-11-specific features (tessellation, TressFX) will be disabled. These steps are not for OS X or Linux (the game will not work correctly).
DX9 renderer[21]
  1. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Dynamics\Tomb Raider\Graphics
  2. Modify the RenderAPI value to 9.

Notes

Revert to 0 for DX11, anything else will result in DX11 renderer with some DX11 features disabled.
